wxWidgets object to display lists of data

Hi,

I'm looking for an object/class that I can print out a list of data.
Even better would be if I can reference each line.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

Thunderchook.

Re: Compiling code using Mingw and wxWidgets on command line Windows 10

Thank you all for your help. You've all been most helpful and supportive. But, I'm over it. I'm gave up and went back to Linux. I had a fully working compiler in both Code::Blocks and Command Prompt working in less than an hour. I'll have another go at trying to get it going under Windows when I'm a...

Re: Compiling code using Mingw and wxWidgets on command line Windows 10

Okay, so yes, that is one of the commands I had typed in previously. I tried it again, and it appeared to have completed normally however it still yields no executable. I ran this in the c:\wxWidgets-3.0.2\Samples\minimal directory on what, I believe to be, the smallest, simplest sample program avai...

Re: Compiling code using Mingw and wxWidgets on command line Windows 10

The command I used to compile the wxWidgets libraries was: mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc SHARED=1 UNICODE=1 BUILD=release CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11" I was advised to use the same command to compile the basic,"minimal" program in the samples directory, so I used: mingw32-make -f makef...

Re: Compiling code using Mingw and wxWidgets on command line Windows 10

Okay, so I tried the exact same line of gmake-32 as I did to compile the wxWidgets library in the "Minimal" sample. The process completed without error. No executable. Am I missing a step? So, I could be wrong but am I to understand that the whole mingw+wxWidgets combination under Windows ...

Compiling code using Mingw and wxWidgets on command line Windows 10

Hi, Successfully compiled/installed wxWidgets with mingw on Windows 10. Trying to just compile a basic lump of code. This is what I would use under Ubuntu - it works: g++ main.cpp main.h simple.cpp simple.h `wx-config --cxxflags --libs` -o simple Can anyone tell me where to find a tutorial/list/etc ...

Re: Installing wxWidgets on Win 10 with mingw command line

Hi, I would recommend using an IDE. Well, actually that's a bit funny because, I began this whole endeavor using an IDE. When I started my C++ coding, I was happily using Code::Blocks on Ubuntu. However, when I switched to wxWidgets to begin GUI programming, I found that, whilst I was able to instal...

Re: Installing wxWidgets on Win 10 with mingw command line

Many thanks! This successfully completed compiling! Next thing, however, is trying to actually use it. When I compiled under Ubuntu, I was using the Zetcode tutorials. The example of compile command was: g++ main.cpp main.h simple.cpp simple.h `wx-config --cxxflags --libs` -o simple However, this do...

Re: Installing wxWidgets on Win 10 with mingw command line

Okay, so I've been trying several times again without success. I'm running Windows 10. Trying to install wxWidgets to run from the command line using mingw. I've successfully installed mingw (version 5.3.0) Version of wxWidgets is 3.0.2 Ran this: mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc SHARED=1 UNICODE=1 BUILD...

Installing wxWidgets on Win 10 with mingw command line

Hi all, I've been happily coding away on Ubuntu with g++ and wxWidgets on the command line. So, the other day, I reimaged my machine and put Win 10 on it. I was surprised to find that trying to recreate that is much, much harder under Windows. (Who would have thought?) So, I went through the instruc...

Distribution of .cpp and .h files

Hi all, I've been working through the zetcode.com tutorials and am finding them most helpful. A once blurry picture is starting the form a much clearer picture in my mind, such that I may be able to start writing my own GUI apps in the semi-near future. One question - I notice that these tutorials b...

Re: Newbie question

Thanks doublemax!

The zetcode.com link has been most helpful and the fuzzy picture is starting to become clearer.
I wasn't expecting to got back to my purist days of non-IDE development, but I am happy to do so, if it teaches me what I need to know.

Again, many thanks.

Re: Newbie question

Still struggling to just... get going on wxWidgets. I've read through and tried to follow a number of tutorials etc but they often give small bits of fragmented code. When I fire up a basic wxWidgets project in Code::Blocks (on Ubuntu), it provides a large amount of code pre-supplied in a number of ...
