Title: PluginWizard output doesn't compile
Post by: Pecan on January 25, 2006, 12:38:40 am

The output from the SVN plugin wizard does not compile.
Any chance we can get this fixed so we can study how
 the interface changed?

thanks

Yes it does now. I fixed that this afternoon (at least if you are referring to the "returnfalse;" bug).

If your problem is a "struct ... has no member ..." error, then you either have to supply the configuration info (look in the core plugins how it is done), or if you don't need a config dialog, you can just delete that line.

thanks Thomas

But I'm refering to the menu item Plugins->Code::Blocks plugin wizard.
Its' output doesn't compile. It gets the "no member name hasConfigure"
error because it hasn't been updated to reflect the new "settings scheme"
manner of doing things (I'm just guessing).

Or am I really confused here?

thanks

Right, you can delete that line.

Ok, I thought the generated code was suppose to have the
new way of handling the configuration settings.

Maybe not

Are you sure that the generated plugin wizard code
should be getting all these errors with no user modifications
at all?

I haven't updated the wizard to reflect the latest interface changes yet.
(read my sig ;))

Hmm yes, those empty declarations are missing. But hey, you have to implement those functions anyway, or the plugin makes no sense at all ;)

The BuildModuleMenu(const ModuleType type, wxMenu* menu, const FileTreeData* data); error was introduced lately (I got it yesterday). The rest were there for quite a while in the compiler plugin template. One more thing that I came across when I started a test compiler plugin to see what the provided template looks like in rev 1801 and I'm talking about the compiler plugin template: When the dialog of the plugin wizard pops up don't give a name for the plugin, just press ok and save the project as prompted. You'll get a dialog that all went OK and then another dialog "Code::Blocks error - can't open file blah blah". It's very easy to reproduce. Maybe you should check if the user hasn't provided a name for the plugin and promt the user to do so.

Ok, I can be patient.

I really was trying to figure out if
an "ordinary Plain Jane" plugin is supposed to do its
config the old way or with the new "settings scheme".

So I generated a generic wizard to find out....
Whoops, no answer there.

So..., should Plain Jane Plugin do an "EVT_MyButton_Plushed" to
execute a dialogue, or follow the "cbConfigurationPanel"  way of
doing dialogues?

thanks

I have already created a wrapper dialog to display a cbConfigurationPanel (it's in compiler). I will move this to the SDK so you can display your cbConfigurationPanels at any time without extra effort.

By the way....

On the new "settings scheme" method, does CB
delete/destroy the dialogue, or is the plugin supposed to.

As always, he who owns it has to destroy it.
You give it away, so you don't own it :)
