Re: XRC issue for some PNG graphics.

My current work-around is to let wxCrafter use wxArtProvider images

Re: XRC issue for some PNG graphics.

@Doublemax: wxCrafter does produce both an *.xrc file (which I ignore) and a *,cpp file where I copied the data array from as well as the loader code wxXmlResource::Get()->LoadBitmap( wxT("modifywxCrafter.xml")) ); my apologies for not identifying that. The XRC file is included in the wxCr...

XRC issue for some PNG graphics.

In my current project, I am trying to display a wxBitmapButton, using a 16x16 PNG as the base image. The GUI is built using wxCrafter 2.9 - latest version I am building under Win 10, 64-bits using MSVC 2029 community edit and wxWidgets 3.1.4 The problem is that the specific button with the given PNG...

Re: Language selection for wxWidgets app via Inno

I am sure all my problem were due to my inexperience with both the whole gettext environment and poedit. It looks very much like my trying to run and explore this app without the necessary background or guidance, resulted in my running into edge and corner cases which experienced users and the devel...

I tried to accept PB's answer, but it does not seem to want to stick - I was looking in the wrong place = all is good :D

Re: Language selection for wxWidgets app via Inno

Thank you very much, PB That is exactly what I needed and the only thing I believe I was missing was the keyword part and the exact sequence to get started. While I was trying out different ways to get to this point, I had several crashes or hung poedit sessions. Your explanation is the first time I...

Re: Language selection for wxWidgets app via Inno

Yes, I have used it from the start of my wxWidgets efforts. I may not be using it in all of the 'proper' places, which is part of what I am hoping to find out and correct. As a last resort, I have downloaded the poedit source and compiled it on my own system, so hopefully I can trace through the cod...

Re: Language selection for wxWidgets app via Inno

I think I have resolved the major issues related to getting the language support for the app resolved. The next step will be to generate the app related translation files from the project source files - hopefully - within the MSVC project itself. I have considered setting up either a batch file for ...

Re: Language selection for wxWidgets app via Inno

Thank you.
Sounds simple and easy enough and it will likely be straight forward - once I figure it all out
Probably would want to stay away from fiddling with the registry, so I will have to look into using some sort of INI file to pass on the information

Language selection for wxWidgets app via Inno

As I am slowly exploring the requirements for multi-language wxWidgets apps, I have been unable to find out just how I 'connect' a language selection in my Inno installer with the needs and code in a wxWidgets app to carry on. It is likely quite obvious, that I am just starting out on this quest. So...

Re: Using crash reporting code from dbugrprt samples crashes

And now the plot really thickens. While I was waiting for the health check on my main PC, I turned to an older PC, also Win 10, wxWIdgets 3.1.4 etc. On that one both 32 & 64-bit versions of dbgrprt do their thing and produce a a zip file, with the 64-bit version a few of KBs bigger than the 32-b...

Re: Using crash reporting code from dbugrprt samples crashes

I have looked at this a bit more, followed the link and installed the Windows SDK's debug stuff, but it neither changed the version of dbghelp.dll I can find, nor did it fix the issues for dbgrpt. At this point even for the 8 bit version of dbgrprt no longer does its thing. - has installing the SDK ...

Re: Using crash reporting code from dbugrprt samples crashes

For me 64-bits is not really a requirement, but I do compile both 32 & 64-bit versions. It seems that at some point in the past the issue came up, I sorted out what needed to be done and since then it is more of a habit. FWIW, in this case I have tried both 32 and 64-bit versions, except for ver...

Re: Using crash reporting code from dbugrprt samples crashes

OK, got it to compile by commenting out all the 'unknown's and supplying a path wxString ldir = _T("T:\\crashdump") ; // where T: is my temporary drive But ..... I still get the same crash /* static */ wxString wxDbgHelpDLL::DumpBaseType(BasicType bt, DWORD64 length, PVOID pAddress) { if (...
