Add-in Dialogs for wxSmith[Solved]

(1/3) > >>

J Hildreth:
I am new to Linux.  I am interested in experimenting with developing applications using a GUI, in other words, the equivalent of writing a Windows program but on a Linux platform.  The Linux OS I am using is Ubuntu 10.10.  I have decided to use Code::Blocks 10.05 as my IDE. I used installation instructions I found on the internet from a Student Manual for Code::Blocks used by the Dept. of Computer and Information Science
Brooklyn College of CUNY, dated 2006-2008.  These instructions also loaded wxWidgets and WxSmith.  No errors were experienced during installation and I have successfully built and executed several small test applications.

The available dialogs in my installation do not include a print dialog.  I have searched on the internet and various forums and I thought I had found a description of several "missing" dialogs for wxSmith, one of which was a print dialog.  I have not been able to relocate that information.  Does anyone have information concerning additional dialogs for wxSmith, specifically a print dialog.

Within a special branch (wxsmith_addons) we have integrated a lot more wxSmith stuff for testing. So either you checkout these sources and compile C::B yourself or you wait for one of the next nightlies.

The print-dialog is already in the nightlies under the Dialogs tab in wxSmith.

You can use my repo if you want to use a recent version build from trunk.
See my server for instructions.

Jens,

I went to your site on installing on Ubuntu.  I followed all 4 of your steps and seemed to get all steps to execute successfully after a few tries.  However, when I execute Code::Blocks and open an wxwidgets project I still don't have a print dialog under the dialogs tab or any other tab for that matter.  I could still be doing something wrong or missing a step (or more).  As I mentioned in my first post, I am absolutely new to Linux.  I know essentially nothing concerning the system admin type of processes that I am sure many of you take for granted.  All of the success I have had so far is strictly due to finding the how-to on the internet, forums and wiki etc., and typing in the listed commands hoping things will work.  Most of the time I have no idea what is happening.  At this point I con only guess that the revised software files from your site, for whatever reasons, are not being downloaded and installed into my Code::Blocks application.  Any Ideas??

It's part of main wxSmith, so if wxSmith is there, it should also be there.
Here is a screenshot of my Dialogs tab:
