wxTimer and the new dynamic event system... Topic is solved
wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
So I'm trying to get these 2 to work together.
I can't seem to find one example of using a wxtimer with the new bind event commands.
The wxTimerEvent also doesn't seem to have an event type assigned to it which is also throwing me off...
any help would be appreciated.

Re: wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
The event type is wxEVT_TIMER. The rest should be just like using Bind in any other situation (connect the timer's target to that event type).
Re: wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
ok, I think I got it now except the bind command isn't working.
It's telling me it's out of scope. I'm calling it in OnInit, should I not use it there? Where do you set bindings up at?
my code so far is this:

my code so far is this:
Code: Select all
wxTimer* m_timer;
m_timer = new wxTimer();
m_timer->SetOwner(this);
Bind(wxEVT_TIMER, &slashanim, this);
m_timer->Start(3000);
Re: wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
What exactly is out of scope?
Binding there is ok.
Is m_timer supposed to be a member variable? If yes then you probably don't want to do
wxTimer* m_timer;

Re: wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
it specifically says the bind command itself is... which is a bit scary... heh...
I'm using the SVN branch of 2.9
The log says:
I've also tried to declare:
#include <wx/event.h>
I still get the same problem

Re: wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
Which platform/compiler? Bind is not available everywhere.
Code: Select all
/*
If this is defined, wxEvtHandler::Bind<>() is available (not all compilers
have the required template support for this and in particular under Windows
where only g++ and MSVC >= 7 currently support it.
*/
#if wxCHECK_GCC_VERSION(3, 2) || wxCHECK_VISUALC_VERSION(7)
#define wxHAS_EVENT_BIND
#endif
Use the source, Luke!
Re: wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
I'm using TDM mingw 4.5.2 (32bit) on windows 7 64bit.
Re: wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
Can you check if the above check evaluates as true that wxHAS_EVENT_BIND gets defined?
Use the source, Luke!
Re: wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
It's not defined, I wonder why?
also I did a search for:
#define wxHAS_EVENT_BIND
and it didn't come up with anything in the 2.9 trunk, where did you find that code snippet?

Re: wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
It's in include/wx/features.h
I hope you didn't get the SVN branch from wxWidgets/branches/WX_2_9_0_BRANCH
You want wxWidgets/trunk
Just making sure...

Re: wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
and yes I have that branch of 2.9.
yeah that code is not there:
what svn branch did you get that from?

Re: wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
when I compile and use the svn trunk version i get a no matching function call for Bind.
and it says I do have wxHAS_EVENT_BIND defined...

Re: wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
"no matching function call" is a different error. I guess just the parameter list is wrong.

Re: wxTimer and the new dynamic event system...
I actually just had a typo in my function declaration... but it works great, thanks again.
But why doesn't WX_2_9_0_BRANCH have these dynamic events? it's a function introduced in 2.9 right?
