Interface IApplication

Namespace: Terminal.Gui.App

Assembly: Terminal.Gui.dll

Interface for instances that provide backing functionality to static gateway class Application.

public interface IApplication

Properties

IsLegacy: true if implementation is 'old'. false if implementation is cutting edge.

MouseGrabHandler: Handles grabbing the mouse (only a single View can grab the mouse at once).

TimedEvents: Handles recurring events. These are invoked on the main UI thread - allowing for safe updates to View instances.
