wxNotifyEvent does not work

Post by kea_ »

Hello together,

I try to program my own class with an event in it.
But unfortunately I get the error: invalid static_cast from type 'void(fmFrame::*)(wxCommandEvent&)' to type 'void(wxEvtHandler::*)(csDatabase&)'

I do not know what's wrong. Can any body give me a helping hand?

I'm using the wxDev-C++

her is the source:

csDatabase.h

Code: Select all

#ifndef csDatabase_h
#define csDatabase_h

#include "csConfig.h"
#include <wx/event.h>


// For compilers that support precompilation, includes "wx.h".
#include <wx/wxprec.h>

#ifdef __BORLANDC__
#pragma hdrstop
#endif


class csDatabase : public wxNotifyEvent
{
	public:
        // F U N C T I O N S
        csDatabase(wxEventType commandType = wxEVT_NULL, int id = 0);
        csDatabase(const csDatabase &event);
        wxEvent *Clone();
        void CallEvent();

        DECLARE_DYNAMIC_CLASS(csDatabase);

    private:
        // P A R A M E T E R S
        // F U N C T I O N S
        // E V E N T S

        // E N U M
};

BEGIN_DECLARE_EVENT_TYPES()
    DECLARE_EVENT_TYPE(myEVT_SAVING, -1)
END_DECLARE_EVENT_TYPES()

typedef void (wxEvtHandler::*csDatabaseFunction)(csDatabase&);


#define EVT_SAVING(id, fn) \
    DECLARE_EVENT_TABLE_ENTRY( \
        myEVT_SAVING, id, wxID_ANY, \
        (wxObjectEventFunction)(wxEventFunction) wxStaticCastEvent(csDatabaseFunction, &fn ), (wxObject *) NULL ),

#endif
csDatabase.cpp

Code: Select all

#include "csDatabase.h"

//IMPLEMENT_DYNAMIC_CLASS(csDatabase, wxEvent)
DEFINE_EVENT_TYPE(myEVT_SAVING)



csDatabase::csDatabase(wxEventType commandType, int id)
           :wxNotifyEvent(commandType, id){
}


csDatabase::csDatabase(const csDatabase &event)
           :wxNotifyEvent(event){
}


wxEvent *csDatabase::Clone(){
    return new csDatabase(*this);
}


void csDatabase::CallEvent(){
    for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++){
        if(i = 5){
            csDatabase event(myEVT_SAVING, GetId());
            event.SetEventObject(this);
            event.ProcessEvent(event);
            GetEventHandler()->ProcessEvent(event);
        }
    }
}
Frame.cpp

Code: Select all

BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE(fmFrame, wxFrame)
    EVT_BUTTON(ID_BUTTON1, fmFrame::OnButton)
    EVT_BUTTON(ID_BUTTON2, fmFrame::OnButton)
    EVT_SAVING(-1, fmFrame::OnSaving)
END_EVENT_TABLE()

void fmFrame::OnSaving(wxCommandEvent &event){
  // do something
}
thanks for any help...

Hello,

thanks for the answer...

Do you have an example that works?
Can you show it to me?

Thanks

ok!

in the .h:

Code: Select all

class LEAEvent : public wxEvent
{
	public:
		LEAEvent();
		LEAEvent(const LEAEvent& evt);
		~LEAEvent();
		wxEvent* Clone() const;
		
       private :
                void* m_data;
                //PARAMETER
};
in the .cpp

Code: Select all

BEGIN_DECLARE_EVENT_TYPES()
	DECLARE_EVENT_TYPE(wxEVT_LEA, -1)
END_DECLARE_EVENT_TYPES()

DEFINE_EVENT_TYPE(wxEVT_LEA)

typedef void (wxEvtHandler::*LEAEventFunction)(LEAEvent&);

#define EVT_LEA(fn) \
    DECLARE_EVENT_TABLE_ENTRY(wxEVT_LEA, -1, -1, \
    (wxObjectEventFunction) (wxEventFunction) \
    wxStaticCastEvent( LEAEventFunction, & fn ), (wxObject *) NULL ),

LEAEvent::LEAEvent():wxEvent(),m_typeEvent(0)
{
	SetEventType(wxEVT_LEA);
}


LEAEvent::LEAEvent(const LEAEvent& evt):
 						wxEvent(evt),
 						m_data(evt.m_data),...
{

}

LEAEvent::~LEAEvent()
{
}


wxEvent* LEAEvent::Clone() const
{
	return new LEAEvent(*this);
}



in a the class it use my EVT_LEA :

Code: Select all

BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE(LEAApp, wxApp)
	EVT_LEA(LEAApp::OnLEAEvent)
END_EVENT_TABLE()

LEAApp::OnLEAEvent(LEAEvent& evt)
{
//do somethink;
}
There are lots of difference, the main one :
we do not call the event in the same way.
you look to use a Id -1 I use directly the event handler as you can see in the code of the class it use My event EVT_LEA

Hello Rabah,

thank you for your example. I had a lot of problems (
I had to use: wxStaticCastEvent(wxCommandEventFunction, & fn), (wxObject *) NULL ),
instead of:
wxStaticCastEvent(csDatabaseFunction, & fn), (wxObject *) NULL ),
) to compile your example but now it works. Excepting for the fire of the event. How do I fire the event now. With the wxEvtHandler?

What developmenttool do you use? Maybe a better one than the wxDev?

Many thanks for your help!

Yes I've seen this stuff...
Thank you for the link.

But it didn't help me before.
I've got error over error....
So I needed help with an example who is working.
But maybe I'm to stupid.

The example works :) I use similar code for every custom event I create.

Hello _kea

I code on linux I do not have a developmebnt tool I have just written a Makefile and used and editor to write my code.

I do not have tried with wxDev.

And else to fire the Event I write :

Code: Select all

LEAEvent evt;
///put parameter
evt.m_data = ...  ;
ptr->AddPendingEvent(evt);
ptr must be a pointer of class which inherits from wxEvtHandler for less
