In the wxwidgets 2.6.0 document on the cunstructor it sayes
"
During the construction of the frame, the client window will be created. To use a different class from wxMDIClientWindow, override wxMDIParentFrame::OnCreateClient.
"
I thought that since codeblock did not overide OnCreateClient and was using editorbase a derived calss of mdiclient, It might be causeing probblems. I was going to try and correct it buy putting this in main.h
virtual EditorBase * OnCreateClient(void);
and this in main.cpp
EditorBase * MainFrame::OnCreateClient()
{
EditorBase *m_pClientWindow =new EditorBase();
return m_pClientWindow;
}
I created a cunstror for EditorBase();
and compiled.
It gives me the following in compiler log
In file included from src\/app.h:33,
from src\main.cpp:26:
src\/main.h:25: error: invalid covariant return type for `virtual EditorBase* MainFrame::OnCreateClient()'
../../wxMSW-2.6.0/include/wx/msw/mdi.h:67: error: overriding `virtual wxMDIClientWindow* wxMDIParentFrame::OnCreateClient()'
Process terminated with status 1 (0 minutes, 6 seconds)
Can SomeOne tell me how to fix this problem?
I have no experiance at overriding fuction and i am all self taught.
