    You can also mix them a bit. The library tungstenite is implemented like this, and allows async-tungstenite to reuse the same logic but in a non-blocking manner. You have the API of the second option, but if a write call returns WouldBlock, you return to the caller and allow them to continue when the buffer is flushed. This can get complicated saving state though (e.g. whether it's currently doing authentication, uploading a file, etc.), but see my note below about Rust's async/await.

    "Automatically figuring out which parent objects the class you're subclassing derives from"

    AFAIK this is a language limitation, there is no way in a Rust macro to take a type and get all the traits that are implemented for that type.

    "Helpers for properties and signals"

    There is an open issue for this: https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk-rs-core/issues/27

    "A flat list of methods, instead of the public/imp split"

    You can already do this in your code and use "pub fn" and "fn" like normal.

    "I feel like I had a difficult time figuring out how to share state between widgets. You end up with lots of OnceCell, Rc, and RefCell, and it quickly becomes confusing,"

    I think you are supposed to use bind_property and the gtk::Expression objects to do data binding, though that part is not so convenient to use from C or Rust either.

  • How to (properly) use subclassing in gtk4-rs?
    2 projects | /r/rust | 3 Aug 2021
    Ideally this should be automated with a nice derive macro, see https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk-rs-core/issues/27 . How that could look exactly is still up to discussion and not so easy while keeping it flexible. That derive macro would then likely also work with the id: usize parameter to the property setter/getter instead of the string name.
