What is about the mailingslists user and dev? Did they moved to google? I read & write the list over the NNTP-gateway gmane.org. No I got an error message from <noreply@googlegroups.com> that I am not allowed to post. Hello gclwd-wx-dev@m.gmane.org, We're writing to let you know that the group t...

Has no one an idea what could be behind this problem?

I have a wxTreeCtrl and create as a tooltip my own wxTipWindow over its items. I need to catch the mouse-motion-event on the wxTreeCtrl to know when I have to destroy the wxTipWindow. But it doesn't work. I can catch the mouse-motion-event to know when I need to create a wxTipWindow. But if the wind...

On Windows, the time is based on the doubleclick delay time: It is an important information. How can I recieve the doubleclick delay from wx? I mean if there is a wx-way to recieve the doubleclick-time so the code is plattform independent. Of course I know that I could use GetDoubleClickTime(). But...

Why would you need to retrieve the delay ? A SetDelay() method allow to set how long the tooltip will be displayed. I don't want to set it myself. I want to set/use the system default value for that. If it is not possible I need to ad a delay-/autopopup-option to the option dialog of the applicatio...

I try to create my own tooltip mechanism. I create a wxTipWindow on a given position. But I need to close the window myself. It doesn't disapear after an delay. I know there is a wxToolTip::SetDelay() methode. It would be nice if there be a wxToolTip::GetDelay() methode! The wx-inbuild-tooltip mecha...

I am not sure If I use the manager correct. I check if there is a registration for the given filetype and I try to set one. But it doesn't work. On restarting the code it doesn't found a registration. void BFApp::CheckFileTypeRegistration () { // bool bDoRegister = true; // the mime types manager wx...

I can read in the docs that all wxMenu objects need to be created on the heap (new) because their parents delete them automaticly. But what is about wxMenu objects without parents? Is something like this correct? void BFPlaceholderButton::OnPressed(wxCommandEvent& rEvent) { wxMenu menu; menu.App...

I am using wxSVN on WinXP SP3 with MSVC2008 ExpEd. I create a wxDialog with a wxTextCtrl (wxRICH2) in it and write text to it. The problem is that the text in the control is still selected. I don't know why. This is the simplified code void WXCCrontabEditDlg::Init () { wxString strCrontabContent; Re...

(Sorry, for x-post in the dev-newsgroup! I forgot to use the forum first.) For example I call wxExecute this way wxArrayString arr; wxExecute("MyApp.exe", arr, wxEXEC_ASYNC); The flag ASYNC indicate that my application doesn't wait till MyApp.exe ends. But it waits because of the 'arr' par...

Is there a smart wx-way to register a file-type (with asociated application and icon) to the operating system?

It would be the best to do it plattformindepended. But only for windows would be ok, too.

Thank you. There should be a doc about such errors. ;) Now there is a mysterious warning BFMainFrame.obj : warning LNK4049: Lokal definiertes Symbol "?BF_EVENT_THREAD_END@@3HB (int const BF_EVENT_THREAD_END)" wurde importiert. I define that event by myself. #ifdef __MINGW32__ extern const ...

This help a little bit. Now there are just 11 errors for missing symbols 1>------ Erstellen gestartet: Projekt: blackfisk, Konfiguration: Debug Win32 ------ 1>Verknüpfen... 1> Bibliothek "blackfisk_.lib" und Objekt "blackfisk_.exp" werden erstellt. 1>BFMainFrame.obj : warning LNK...

I have a wxWidgets application and it call a extern commandline-tool. The tool apear in the windows-taskbar and a terminal-box ("dos-box") is opend while it runs. There is no need for this, because the tool doesn't need input from the user or output to the screen. Is it possible to call/ru...

I build my project on WinXP with MinGW and Code::Blocks. Now I want to migrate it to MSVC++ 2008 Express Edition. I compiled wx from SVN with MSVC in "Debug DLL" mode. It work fine. In my own project I setup lib\vc_dll as lib-dir. And I copied all extra libs from the widgets-sample in my o...
