Where is bugg tracker on wxWidgets 2.9.0

Post by Feneck91 »

Hi !

I have compiled my application with wxWidgets 2.9.0...
Work fine but some really strange bugs....

wxStaticText:: Get/Set Label doesn't work.
wxSocketClient used with events : IsConnected returned always false.
wxLog : wxLoge trace never display traces...

And other problems. Where I can post and see current problems about wxWidgets 2.9.0 ?

Thanks.
Jorg

Before you 'accuse' the wxWidgets development community by posting it as bugs, are you sure that the issues are really bugs? Get/SetLabel on a wxStaticText seems like a pretty basic issue and can be discovered rather quick. Can you make a minimal sample and see if the bug occurs there? Also, did you compile the library yourself or did you download a binary?

Can you post some code to show us what does not work, with the context code like creation of the wxStatictext and the setting of the value?

The bugtracker by the way is here:
http://trac.wxwidgets.org/

Hi. My question was not to 'accuse' wxWidgets that is a very good library but just find the link where the bug are listed to see if problems that I can see are known or not. Example : I use sockets with events and when I receive connect notification, socket::isConnected return always false.... I try to understand and finally, I rebuild my project with 2.8.10 library and I is work fine.... I can safe time to go to see in the bugtracker if the problems are known or not. If I want to post I'll verify if it is not my fault.
Have a good day.

Hi,

That's why I said 'accuse' between quotes. I am only phrasing it like that because I felt in that same trap a couple of times where a configuration error / mis build or plain API misuse caused me to post a bug report. It could have saved me the embarassment and time by investigating in a minimal sample and rebuild if the bug actually exists.

But since you tried wxWidgets 2.8 and there it works fine, it looks like an API inconsistency, or just a plain bug.

Not meaning to offend your intentions, just passing on life lessons once in a while ;-)

I'm also getting the problem where socket->isConnected() always returns false. It has caused me a bit of grief tonight. It seems the case since the server I'm connecting to (not a wxwidgets one) seems to log the connection quite happily and the disconnection.

Using WaitOnConnect works fine. I am using 2.9.0 too. I'm going to try a build of 2.8 and see if it works (pretty useless for me because of stuff I'm doing with the new loop functions in 2.9.0).

Has anyone else confirmed this yet?

Cheers,
