* macOS: fix property_no fn * Use CFRunLoopTimer instead if NSTimer This means the timer doesn't keep a reference to the view, which should make it easer to check retain_count in release. * macOS: take pointer instead of Arc in WindowState::setup_timer * Save retain count increase from build fn, use in release fn * macOS: in window setup, run build fn before doing parenting * macOS: clean up parenting * macOS: wrap WindowState in Box instead of Arc to improve clarity * macOS: use better names for ivar consts, move them to view.rs * Remove no longer used crate static_assertions * macOS: in view release fn, delete class when retain_count == 1 * macOS: set window state ivar to null after dropping * macOS: store retain count after build in WindowState * macOS: rename BASEVIEW_WINDOW_STATE_IVAR to BASEVIEW_STATE_IVAR |

baseview
A low-level windowing system geared towards making audio plugin UIs.
baseview abstracts the platform-specific windowing APIs (winapi, cocoa, xcb) into a platform-independent API, but otherwise gets out of your way so you can write plugin UIs.
