How do I link the input on textbox content to label and put it on screen? Topic is solved

[cymotrichous]

Hello, Im creating a simple GUI on codeblocks using wxWidgets and Im struggling to this.
How would you link the signal sent by clicking the button, to another function that puts the textbox contents into a label, and puts it on the screen?
Like for example; INPUT: TEST -> Clicking "OK" button would result as an output: Hello Test! Any help is much appreciated! Thank you!

You should define EVT_BUTTON, examples are in docs and some simple below:

Code: Select all

//...
BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE(Your_App_Frame_Frm,wxFrame)
	//...
	EVT_CLOSE(Your_App_Frame_Frm::OnClose)
	//...
	EVT_BUTTON(ID_YOURBUTTON,Your_App_Frame_Frm::buttonYourButtonClick)
	//...
END_EVENT_TABLE()
//...
/*
 * buttonYourButtonClick
 */
void Your_App_Frame_Frm::buttonYourButtonClick(wxCommandEvent& event)
{
    //here your code for copying text from textbox into label;
    return;
}

I have this code below, how do I link the input on text box after clicking the OK button? It should display as, "Hello World! *[i]user input[/i]*". Any help is appreciated!
[code]void HWFrame::OnAbout(wxCommandEvent& event)
{
    wxString msg = wxbuildinfo(long_f);
    wxMessageBox(msg, _("Welcome to..."));
}

void HWFrame::OnButton1Click(wxCommandEvent& event)
{
    wxString msg= _T("Hello World!");
    wxString info= _T("MESSAGE");
    wxMessageBox(msg,
                info,
                wxOK | wxICON_INFORMATION,
                this);
}

void HWFrame::OnTextCtrl1Text(wxCommandEvent& event)
{

}

[/code]

You can just copy value from your text box inside of click button function:
info=TextCtrl1->GetValue();
