There're no V way to get element id from event (Create <webui.Event>.element function)

Do you mean C.webui_event_t.element?

[malisipi]

Do you mean C.webui_event_t.element?

Actually yes and no. C.webui_event_t.element is char and not native type. So the function will get the char, convert it to native string type and return it

The V wrapper uses a direct call from C-WebUI to V callbacks. It works well, but I made another approach for the Python, Go and C++ wrappers. I created an event handler function that receives all events from the WebUI library first, then converts data to the native language format and calls the user callback.

[WebUI] -> [V Wrapper Events Handler] -> [End-user callback]
                 *
                 *
                 * * * Here, you can convert (C.webui_event_t) to (Native V Event struct of your choice)

Nothing forced me to use this approach in all three wrappers I made, but I did it anyway just for fun and to learn new things in other languages.

[malisipi]

I like the approach. I will implement it as like that. Also it gives the native feeling to developers. While they can use the value directly, why do they need to use a extra function?

[malisipi]

vwebui_event_handler will handle c-events with webui_bind. And vwebui_event_handler will trigger v-events. V-events will be registered with vwebui_bind. Also vwebui_bind will trigger webui_bind to register event.

[malisipi]

It's nearly done with #18. However it's using global variables that not recommend. I will fix it and merge it

[malisipi]

Actually it's still using global variables but [translated] flag (in module) is stopping the annoying error.
