I have a Windows service that I am trying to change into a wxApp so that I can use wxTimer. The initial problem was that Notify() never gets called and I learned that this is because no event loop is available. I have therefore changed my service to be a wxApp (using the macro IMPLEMENT_APP_NO_MAIN)...

Hi doublemax I found the issue. On client side I get a wxDateTime from a dialog. At this point it is correct. I then use Format() to get a string and send the string to the server. This is where the problem occurs. Using wxDateTime::Format() returns something like 24/07/13 12:01:02 on my machine. On...

Hi everyone, I just realized that wxDateTime.GetYear() returns 13 instead of 2013. This is unexpected as nowhere in the documentation can I find mention of having to add something to the result of GetYear(). Also, how will it work if I have 1913 in the year? Does the date time format setting on the ...

Moving the "dynlib.h" header file to the first line and changing wxDllType to HMODULE in the offending file solved the issue. I assume this is fine (for Windows at least) to do this a wxDllType is just a typedef of HMODULE.

After some more investigation the problem is between wxWidget's dynlib.h and POCO. I will continue to see if I can find a solution and post a reply if I do.

Hi everyone, I hope someone can shed some light on this. I am using wxWidgets 2.8.12, VS 2008 on Windows with the POCO libraries. The project consists of dlls that are loaded by an application. The problem is that the dlls that include POCO headers for other functionality cannot build. The error I a...

Have a look at http://docs.wxwidgets.org/2.8/wx_wxxmldocument.html and http://docs.wxwidgets.org/2.8/wx_wxxmlnode.html

AFAIK you need to use the dynamic build of widgets to get this to work. I've made an application that uses plugins : both the main application and the plugins (which are loaded at runtime) use wxWidgets. If I link a plugin or the main application with the static version of wxWidgets, it crashes.

I might misunderstand your question, but have a look here: http://wiki.wxwidgets.org/Programs_That_Support_Plugins

Hi, We are using wxMSW 2.8.9 and I need to catch the EVT_HEADER_SEPARATOR_DCLICK event that is triggered when a user double clicks on a column header separator in a wxListCtrl. I see that 2.9 upwards supports this with the addition of the wxHeaderCtrl but can this be accomplished in 2.8.9? Thanks in...

Ok, I am able to get the string out by using GetNodeContent(). I am still concerned about what all the "text" children are. I suspect I will have more questions before long.


Thanks

Hi everyone, I hope someone can help me understand wxXML. Firstly, lets start with the XML file I want to read : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Config Name="Default"> <Instance Name="MyInstance"> <Modules/>ModuleA,ModuleB,ModuleC </Instance> <Module Name="ModuleA"> <DBConnectionString/>abcd...

Hi everyone,

We are migrating from widgets 2.8.9 to 2.9.4 but we can't seem to figure out how to build widgets without unicode support. Can someone point me to a solution?

Thanks.

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know of a function to convert wxDateTime to tm (Please note that I am not taking about the Tm struct in wx, but the std tm struct. I wrote a fucntion to do it, but if wx has a built in function I would prefer to use that.

Regards.

Thanks Doublemax, that was it. I would also like to add that "this->GetId()" should be replaced with "m_mediaCtrl->GetId()" for it to work.
