Well I Uses this:

Code: Select all

	wxArrayString numberArray;
	numberArray.Add(wxT("0"));
	numberArray.Add(wxT("1"));
	numberArray.Add(wxT("2"));
	numberArray.Add(wxT("3"));
	numberArray.Add(wxT("4"));
	numberArray.Add(wxT("5"));
	numberArray.Add(wxT("6"));
	numberArray.Add(wxT("7"));
	numberArray.Add(wxT("8"));
	numberArray.Add(wxT("9"));
	wxTextValidator textValidatorRelax(wxFILTER_INCLUDE_CHAR_LIST, &m_strRelax);
	textValidatorRelax.SetIncludes(numberArray);
	m_pRelaxEdit = new wxTextCtrl(this, ID_WXEDIT_RELAX, wxT(""), wxPoint(155,23), wxSize(45,20), wxTE_LEFT, textValidatorRelax, wxT("WxEditRelax"));

wxTextValidator does not take exclude/include list in the constructor, but the string on which to check, the string contains the value of the textctrl.

The last parameter doesn't contain the exclude list, but will store the value once it's validated.

Use priyank_bolia code, but set an exclude list.

thanks , its working now

wxArrayString excludeList;
excludeList.Add(wxT("*"));
excludeList.Add(wxT(":"));
excludeList.Add(wxT("\\"));
excludeList.Add(wxT("/"));
excludeList.Add(wxT("?"));
excludeList.Add(wxT("\""));
excludeList.Add(wxT("<"));
excludeList.Add(wxT(">"));
excludeList.Add(wxT("|"));
excludeList.Add(wxT(" "));
wxTextValidator textValidator(wxFILTER_EXCLUDE_CHAR_LIST);
textValidator.SetExcludes(excludeList);

textCtrl = new wxTextCtrl(this, -1, wxString(""), wxPoint(-1, -1), wxSize(-1, -1), 0, textValidator);

this code doesnot permit the user to write the excludeList Characters.

thnaks again
