If anyone else has the problem the soluition is to move XInit threads to here: bool App::OnInit() { //(*AppInitialize bool wxsOK = true; #ifdef __linux__ wxsOK = XInitThreads(); #endif //etc... And the creation of the context to here: void loadingThreadEntry(wxGLContext * context, wxGLCanvas * canva...

I'm trying to have one thread load textures while another thread does the rendering, but I keep getting the error: [xcb] Unknown request in queue while dequeuing [xcb] Most likely this is a multi-threaded client and XInitThreads has not been called [xcb] Aborting, sorry about that. MainWindow: ../.....

it was because I included openGL before wxWidgets in a header, for some reason.

if I don't run the configure the wx-config script doesn't exist, so I'm not sure how you can use it without running the configure. creating a symlink from corelib_vlbox.o to corelibvlbox.o let the wx library complie, but my program is still creating errors regarding char * vs wchar_t *. Trying the 3...

Now it (wxWidgets library compile) is giving me: ar: gcc_mswu\corelibvlbox.o: no such file or directory. Also it wouldn't run at first because it was doing this: mkdir ../../lib/gcc_lib/mswu instead of this: mkdir -p ../../lib/gcc_lib/mswu/wx (I'm not too familiar with fixing configure files) My own...

Is there an equivalent of QPainter?

Without knowing what it does, i can't tell. If you want to draw into a bitmap, you can use a wxMemoryDC and use "normal" wxDC or wxGraphicsContext methods.

wxGraphicsContext was the equivalent, thank you!

Thank you! QPainter is a software renderer that can render simple 2D shapes like lines and boxes as well as text. It also allows multiple rendering contexts without the slowdown of GL context switches. It's not that hard to manually make one that does the lines and boxes, but I don't know how to add...

Hello, I'm trying to convert an application I've written from Qt to Wx for licensing reasons, luckily I thought this might happen and barely integrated the GUI at all, in favor of a C adapter; however even then I'm having problems. So I'm having trouble figuring out how to do things in Wx that I cou...
