So essentially when the CONNECT code is called with the eventSink parameter set it will create a (delegate instance,event type, id, function) to be acted upon as apposed to (just an ID, and event type and function). via : wxEvtHandler* m_eventSink; struct WXDLLIMPEXP_BASE wxDynamicEventTableEntry : ...

ok so let me break this down and maybe that will help me. I have a frame: myframe::wxFrame it has a button: AddButton = new wxButton(Panel1, ID_Add, _("Add"), wxDefaultPosition, wxDefaultSize, 0, wxDefaultValidator, _T("ID_Add")); here is the connect line: Connect(ID_Add,wxEVT_CO...

Is the event class essentially the callback mechinism in wxwidgets?

Ie it is the class that is inherited from by the callee to allow for callbacks?

edit*
Simply put what does the connect() function actually do ? does it somehow insert the function passed into the calling object instance?

Hi , I am in the process of learning wxWidgets from scratch. That is right I have never programmed before. I thought i would use this thread as a diary of my journey for future programmers to reference. ----------- 1. Learn C ----------- Since i have never programmed before i have to start at the be...

Thank you for the list. Now I just need to untangle the rest of the logic on how to connect events.
Event programming is still a black box to me.

I am attempting to learn how wxwidgets events are handled. Where do i get a list of wxEventTypes to use in : void Connect (int id, wxEventType eventType, wxObjectEventFunction function, wxObject *userData=NULL, wxEvtHandler *eventSink=NULL) I finally found the wxEventType is needed buried in a forum...

Ok i have added the validator code to my TextCtrl and i am getting the compile error: /home/ajonen/distdata/bdn/stable/server.cpp|39|error: ‘wxFILTER_ALPHA’ was not declared in this scope| /home/ajonen/distdata/bdn/stable/server.cpp|39|error: ‘wxTextValidator’ was not declared in this scope| ||=== B...

If your dbcon class represents the database connection (btw, probably would be better to use DatabaseLayer for this), then you need to create a constructor with parameters: hostname, port, database name, login, password. Then create a dialog class. The dialog class will contain variables (wxString ...

What I want is a dialog that sets the ip address of my database connection. What is the best way to implement a dialog to set the ip address of the database to connect to. I have created a wxDialog that has a text box for the server ip address. I have a class that actually does the database connecti...

I have all the binaries compiled for windows wixwidgets for windows 7 too. You won't need to spend time compiling libraries for windows. I also have a site setup to track the work too. Initially i just need help with the basic forms for entering some data. Then there will be some socket work writing...

I have a server setup with svn and redmine for project management. I have an idea of what I want and i have already started the work on the project. My question is what would it cost to have one of you pros help me and teach me at the same time. I am not looking for face to face help, but help codin...

I have a project started to collect data from Wine and Spirits Distributors and then categorize it and send it back to Wine Suppliers. I have attached a PDF explaining the project. First stage involves wxwidgets and c++. The second stage will include Android app development. I am looking for some pr...

forgetting the body of a virtual destructor was the issue:

This fixed the header file:

here is the class: #ifndef SUP_MASTER_H #define SUP_MASTER_H #include <wx/wx.h> class sup_master { public: sup_master( wxString master_sup_id, wxString supplier_name, wxString supplier_state, wxString supplier_zip, wxString ship_split_script, wxString incoming_zipfile_name, wxString yyyymm ): master...

This is a pretty good tutorial with some great starter code.

It even gives you a looping server2.c script with a function to start from.
My function will basically just execute commands that i send the server and return the error level back to the client.
