WxComboBox OnTextEnter doesn't work

[eriX]

Ok,

I want execute my code, if the user writes a char in the WxComboBox.
I have created a new function with Events->OnTextEnter in the Form designer and wrote my code in the new function.
If I execute my programm, there happens nothing, if I enter sth. in the ComboBox.

My code works, if I set wxTE_PROCESS_ENTER to true and press enter.
But I don't want to press Enter... the function shall be startet, if I enter some text.

How can I start my function using OnTextEnter?!

Thank you very much!

I think you're handling the wrong event type.
You probably need wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_UPDATED.

I added your code here:

Code: Select all

////Event Table Start
BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE(anmeldung_erfassenFrm,wxFrame)
	////Manual Code Start
	wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_UPDATED(ID_WXCOMBOBOX1,anmeldung_erfassenFrm::WxComboBox1TextEnter0)
	////Manual Code End

	EVT_CLOSE(anmeldung_erfassenFrm::OnClose)

But the compiler says:

Code: Select all

44 X:\Kursplaner\anmeldung_erfassenFrm.cpp `wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_UPDATED' cannot be used as a function
47 X:\Kursplaner\anmeldung_erfassenFrm.cpp expected `}' before "wxEventTableEntry"
47 X:\Kursplaner\anmeldung_erfassenFrm.cpp expected `,' or `;' before "wxEventTableEntry"
70 X:\Kursplaner\anmeldung_erfassenFrm.cpp expected declaration before '}' token

Uhm.. in your initial post you mentioned wxTE_PROCESS_ENTER which is an event type.
If you want to use the event table you need to use a macro corresponding to the event type; remember "the macro" != "the event type".

The macro corresponding to wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_UPDATED is EVT_TEXT.

Thank you. Now the funktion is called, when the user type some text in.

Code: Select all

////Event Table Start
BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE(anmeldung_erfassenFrm,wxFrame)
	////Manual Code Start
	EVT_TEXT(ID_WXCOMBOBOX1,anmeldung_erfassenFrm::WxComboBox1TextEnter0)
	////Manual Code End

But the text, I typed in, disappeares.
Must I get the text every time and then "->SetValue();" or is there any other option that my text doesn't become deleted?

You're asking what your code does but you're not showing any of it...

You probably need to add event.Skip(). Check the docs for its purpose.

Ok, here is my code of the function, that is called when the user writes into the ComboBox:

I solved the problem that the text disappeared, if you type in sth.
Not the best way, but it works:

Code: Select all

WxComboBox1 = new wxComboBox(WxPanel1, ID_WXCOMBOBOX1, wxT(""), wxPoint(55, 200), wxSize(585, 23), arrayStringFor_WxComboBox1, 0, wxDefaultValidator, wxT("WxComboBox1"));

Code: Select all

/*
 * WxComboBox1TextEnter0
 */
void anmeldung_erfassenFrm::WxComboBox1TextEnter0(wxCommandEvent& event)
{
    // In Suchfeld eingegebenen Name erfassen:
    wxString suchstring = WxComboBox1->GetLabel();
    
	// Name in Datenbank suchen
	
    sqlite3* Datenbank;
   
    if(sqlite3_open("kursplaner.sqlite3", &Datenbank) != SQLITE_OK)
    {
        popup(1);
    }
  
    else
    {
	    char **ergebnis=NULL;
        int zeilen;
        int spalten;
        char *popup=NULL;
        
        wxString get_command = "SELECT id, name, geburtstag FROM patienten WHERE name LIKE '"+ suchstring +"%'";
        
        sqlite3_get_table(Datenbank, get_command, &ergebnis, &zeilen, &spalten, &popup);
        
        WxComboBox1->Clear();
        
        wxString temp_anzeige;
        
        if(zeilen==0)
        {
            wxMessageBox("Keine Datensätze gefunden","Kursplaner",wxOK);
        }
        else
        {
            for(int i=3; i<=zeilen*3; i+=3)
            {
                temp_anzeige="";
                temp_anzeige << ergebnis[i] << " | " << ergebnis[i+1] << " | "  << ergebnis[i+2];
                WxComboBox1->Append(temp_anzeige);
            }
        }

        WxComboBox1->SetValue(suchstring);
        WxComboBox1->SetInsertionPointEnd();

    }
    
    sqlite3_close(Datenbank);
}

I need to open the "ListBox" in the ComboBox.
Since WxWidgets 2.9.1 the is the option "->Popup();"
http://docs.wxwidgets.org/2.9.2/classwx_combo_box.html

But with the wxDevC++ 7.3.1.3 it seems that I have not the latest wxWidgets.
Is there any way to update them simply?
I only found a download for MSW installation: http://sourceforge.net/projects/wxwindows/files/2.9.2/
I installed the package in a folder, and wanted to update the "combobox.h" files only... but the compiler still don't know "->Popup();"

I couln't update WxWidgets sucessfully yet.
Is there any tutorial for updating the WxWidgets in wxDev-C++ ?
