KeyEvent on ListBox

Post by Lloyd »

Hi,

I have a wxListBox on a wxDialog Derived class. In the derived class' onstructor ListBox object is made and connected it with the event handler like this

Code: Select all

SearchDialog::SearchDialog(UserInterface* UserInterfaceptr,wxWindow* parent,wxWindowID id, const wxString& title,const wxPoint& pos,const wxSize& size):wxDialog(parent,id,title,pos,size)
{
....
....

SearchList=new wxListBox(this,ID_SEARCH_LISTBOX,wxDefaultPosition,wxSize(200,203),0,NULL,wxLB_EXTENDED|wxLB_NEEDED_SB|wxSUNKEN_BORDER);
  SearchList->Connect(ID_SEARCH_LISTBOX,wxEVT_CHAR,wxKeyEventHandler(SearchDialog::OnDel));

...
...
}
Then the OnDel function is defined like this

Code: Select all

void SearchDialog::OnDel(wxKeyEvent& event)
{
 ...

 if(SearchList->GetCount()==0)
    return; 
 ....
When the code reaches the GetCount() fn. the application crashes (Access Violation). (on Both Linux and Windows). What could be the reason?

Thanks,
Lloyd

another victim who fell into the event sink trap ;)

Use this as eventsink parameter in your connect() call and you're fine.
