Using this as a submodule or subtree -named `waflib` in a project allows waf to be used without including binary -encoded data in the waf script. This gets along with revision control and -distributions better, among other advantages, without losing -self-containedness. +Suil is a library for loading and wrapping LV2 plugin UIs. +For more information, see <http://drobilla.net/software/suil>. -To use this in a project, add this repository as a directory named `waflib` in -the top level of the project, and link or copy `waf` to the top level. - -Two waf extras are also included: `autowaf.py` and `lv2.py`. - -The `autowaf.py` module is a kitchen sink of Python utilities for building -consistent packages, and can be imported in a wcript as -`waflib.extras.autowaf`. - -The `lv2.py` extra defines options for LV2 plugin installation paths. It can -be used by calling `opt.load('lv2')` and `conf.load('lv2')` in the appropriate -locations in a wscript. +With Suil, a host written in one supported toolkit can embed a plugin UI +written in a different supported toolkit. Suil insulates hosts from toolkit +libraries used by plugin UIs. For example, a Gtk host can embed a Qt UI +without linking against Qt at compile time. -- David Robillard <d@drobilla.net> + |
