Hello, I'm developing an application with a top menu bar, along with some drop-down menus. This works fine, however I'd also like to use a part of the menu bar (ideally the top right corner) to display the system time. Is there any way to display (and periodically update) a wxStaticText, or some equ...

I'm using Audacity to convert my mp3 files to .wav, and I'm starting to suspect it of creating a file format that causes the popping noise in wxWidgets. I'm not sure what wave format wxWidgets uses, since every .wav file that I download or tried to convert online failed to work? Only files created i...

Hello, I'm using the wxSound class for a short user notification, which loops in the background. However, at the start of every loop, when the app starts to play the sound file, there is a noticeable 'popping' noise, which is pretty loud. I've tried different sound files and different headsets/speak...

Ok, I've found the problem, apologies for the long post, but it had me confused for a while. The memory location I was referring to in: mbMaster->mb_mapping->tab_input_registers[11] was not created correctly, and hence the pointer errors, coming from the external Modbus library. I'm not sure why the...

Upon further investigation, it seems that these function calls - in the Thread loop - are causing the error when closing the app for some reason: if (ct != -1) { wxCriticalSectionLocker enter(mbMaster->mb_guard); mbMaster->mb_mapping->tab_input_registers[11] = modbus_read_input_bits(ctx, 10001, MB_N...

Hello, I'm writing a new mulithreaded application in wxWidgets, and I'm encountering a pointer/malloc error that I can't quite figure out. I'm not sure if the problem lies in my wxWidgets code, or the external library that I'm using. On starting my wxWidgets application, I create an additional threa...

I managed to find (what I hope is) a good solution to the problem, by following these recommendations: https://github.com/stephane/libmodbus/issues/452 I made the TCP/IP socket non-blocking, using the following function: fcntl(socket, F_SETFL, fcntl(socket, F_GETFL, 0) | O_NONBLOCK); This effectivel...

cough...cough... it's definitely not linux What do you mean, this is under Linux Mint, Eclipse IDE :D if your lib has internal threads and has not explicit functions kinda stop_lib, terminate... you must not try to stop something inside it. I don't think the library provides any way to interact wit...

Here are the threads running in the application: Temporary breakpoint 1, main (argc=1, argv=0x7fffffffddc8) at ../cPomiarWiazki.cpp:3 3 wxIMPLEMENT_APP(cPomiarWiazki); [New Thread 0x7fffeb904700 (LWP 3993)] [New Thread 0x7fffeb103700 (LWP 3994)] [New Thread 0x7fffea3f1700 (LWP 3996)] [New Thread 0x7...

I still get the following message, despite using Kill(): 15:41:27: Debug: 1 threads were not terminated by the application. So I guess I can't do anything until the blocking function returns? Im undertand though, that the thread is terminated, and the heap resources are freed anyway, when the app cl...

I use the following code to terminate the thread: //Delete TCP/IP thread { wxCriticalSectionLocker enter(mbThreadCS); if (mbThreadTCP) { if (mbThreadTCP->Kill() != wxTHREAD_NO_ERROR) wxLogError("Can't delete the thread!"); } } while (1) { { wxCriticalSectionLocker enter(mbThreadCS); if (!mbThreadTCP...

I currently have a function to delete and clean up all my threads when the application is closed (i'm using 3 wxThreads). Unfortunately one of the threads uses a blocking function call for incoming TCP/IP communication. The function will not return until communication is established, so in the case ...

Ah, might be problem with a non-existent pointer...

I have a new issue, where my App crashes on triggering one of the events. On each itteration of my worker thread, I send events to one of the "main" windows, as well as an additional "diagnostics" window (which is tied to the same main window), under the condition that it is opened by the user: //Se...

Sorry, turns out it was a simple error in not resetting a counter, and trying to access an invalid memory location. I will continue to test the application, hopefully it will work well now
