EventObject in menu handler different on Linux/Windows? Topic is solved

[fbronx]

I've got a menu handler and it behaves differently on Windows/Linux:

Code: Select all

void FrameEventHandler::onMenu(wxCommandEvent &event)
{
  std::cout << typeid(event.GetEventObject()).name() << std::endl;
  wxObject* evtObj = dynamic_cast<wxObject *>(event.GetEventObject());
  wxString className(evtObj->GetClassInfo()->GetClassName());
  std::string name(className.mb_str());
  std::cout << name << std::endl;
}

On Linux I see a wxMenu class as eventobject and on Windows I have a wxWindow as eventobject. Is this by design or is this a bug?

I'm using wxWidgets 2.8.10

Platform differences are almost always bugs - unless they are documented, which I assume you have already verified. So I would perhaps recommend taking a peek at the bug tracker
