what is the status of wxSmith really rigth now? i meen, there is for example that function to add a menubar to a frame and then to add menues to the bar, but unless there is some clue i really don't know, or it simply isn't working, that is i don't fet any menuebar in the compiled and executing program. the statusbar does work. (?) is this still on the road and work in progress?
Hmm, I use wxSmith for some time and I was able to write few more advanced apps using it, so that prooves that this plugin is actually working quite well. Of course there are always some bugs, that's unavoidable, but finding them and removing may be really time-consuming and intensive process. Also note that many parts of wxSmith could be done better, more user friendly and so on. Of course enw features will be added in future, but for now, bug-fixing has highest priority.
also that check-box in the new-project wizzard: the one which sias use wxSmith as grafical tool... it works fine, even compiles, but it seems that the xml of the wxs file isn't transformed into c++ and it does not appear in any file. the programm runs, but naturally shows nothing since its frame is actually missing. and it can't be terminated through code::blocks (the red cross button)...
If you choose wxFrame-based window, it should actually have status bar and menu bar, nothing else. If you choose wxDialog-based it adds some text and buttons into it. I don't know what's the problem, but when I create any project using wizard it works out-of-the-box. Maybe it's some kind of wxSmith bug, try playing with paths (f.ex. remove any spaces etc).
if i try to generate an empty project and later add files nad frames to it with wxSmith it adds an app file without headerfile, its all in the cpp file... being so much a noob in this all i get quite confused :mrgreen:
For empty App class, header file is not required, because usually you won't use it anywhere in the code.
please, don't take anything i say as critic or something, i really am very glad, that this programm and your plugin exist!
No, I threat this rather as a source of information
If you have some problems with something that may require some changes in wxSmith since other people can face same problem.
After summing things up: it looks like you have some strange problems with wxSmith which I've never seen before. When I do some test on my local machine, everything works well. So the only thing I could suggest to you is to experiment and if you find the reason of problems just give me some feedback so maybe I'll be able to fix it.
