I' am newbie, im styding wxwidgets and c++, in this topic i want ask How to create a widgets (Buttons) form Derived Class ( APMainFrame that inherit MainFrame class)
Code MainFrame GUI:
MainFrame::MainFrame( wxWindow* parent, wxWindowID id, const wxString& title, const wxPoint& pos, const wxSize& size, long style ) : wxFrame( parent, id, title, pos, size, style )
{
this->SetSizeHints( wxDefaultSize, wxDefaultSize );
this->SetBackgroundColour( wxSystemSettings::GetColour( wxSYS_COLOUR_WINDOWFRAME ) );
.....
this->SetMenuBar( m_menubar1 );
this->Centre( wxBOTH );
}
and APMainFrame.h code:
class APMainFrame : public MainFrame
{
public:
/** Constructor */
APMainFrame( wxWindow* parent );
//// end generated class members
wxButton* HelloWorld; // here i wanna create function and button for GUI
void OnExit(wxCommandEvent& event);
private:
DECLARE_EVENT_TABLE()
};
enum
{
BUTTON_Hello = wxID_HIGHEST + 1
};
and file APMainFrame.cpp:
BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE(APMainFrame, MainFrame)
EVT_BUTTON(BUTTON_Hello, APMainFrame::OnExit)
END_EVENT_TABLE() // The button is pressed
APMainFrame::APMainFrame( wxWindow* parent )
:
MainFrame( parent )
{
HelloWorld = new wxButton(this, BUTTON_Hello, _T("Hello World"),
// shows a button on this window
wxDefaultPosition, wxDefaultSize, 0);
}
void APMainFrame::OnExit(wxCommandEvent& event)
{
Close(TRUE);
}
I just wanna create Widgets form Drived class. Thanks so much.
You need to add a panel (wxPanel
) and a sizer to your wxFrame
derived frame.
You have created your button, but you also need to add it to the frame so it knows to render it.
Thus, like so:
MainFrame( parent )
{
wxPanel* panel = new wxPanel(this, wxID_ANY);
wxBoxSizer* sizer = new wxBoxSizer(wxVERTICAL);
panel->SetSizer(sizer);
HelloWorld = new wxButton(this, BUTTON_Hello, _T("Hello World"),
// shows a button on this window
wxDefaultPosition, wxDefaultSize, 0);
sizer->Add(HelloWorld);
}
