Hello Group,
Another Newbie to C::B here. In general, the IDE looks to be headed in the right direction. However, I am having trouble with wxSmith. In order to familiarize myself with the tool, I have been attempting (several times) to step through the "Hello world" Tutorial, posted on the site Wiki.
I am able to create a new wxWidgets project, compile, and run. However, as I am following along with the tutorial, using wxSmith to add elements, C::B hangs, using 100% CPU. In an effort to be patient, I let it run for several minutes like this before killling the app. Fortunately, it appears as though the program hangs at the same point in the tutorial every time (at least the few times I attempted this):
And because this text looks so lonely, we will add button here:
* Select Newly created text
* Chose "After" Insertion type
* Click on Button's icon
As soon as I select the "After" Insertion type, she hangs.
My platform is as follows:
AMD Duron 2.1GHz (overclocked, but very stable)
Windows 2000
Anyone have any suggestions? At this point, I am considering either giving in to a Microsoft IDE, or going way old school and programming directly against the WIN32 API (hopefully without losing my sanity). On the other hand, I guess I could learn how to code using wxWidgets, without a GUI editor.
Thank you.
