wxCrafter adding event.skip() to .h file

[antoniochang]

I am having difficulty getting a button to work. It's my first time trying out CodeLite and it's not going well.
In wxCrafter, I created a wxButton, then double-clicked and it automatically connected it to a wxEVT_COMMAND_BUTTON_CLICKED.

Clicking on "Generate Code" in wxCrafter automatically generated 2 virtual void event handler functions, each in:
wxcrafter.h in the Login class
LoginFrame.h in the LoginFrame class

I want the definition/actual handling to be in
LoginFrame.cpp

The problem is that in the wxcrafter.h, it automatically adds to the base class the code: event.Skip().
LoginFrame inherits from Login, and event.Skip() is in Login, so the event handler in LoginFrame.cpp is never called. The wxcrafter.h is autogenerated. When I put the true handling in wxcrafter.h, I get the desired behavior, but this .h file is overridden and erased every time the "Generate Code" is pressed in the wxCrafter.

What must I do to resolve the problem?

Thanks!

wxcrafter.h

Code: Select all

class SigninDialog : public wxDialog
{
....
protected:
    virtual void OnBtnLoginClicked(wxCommandEvent& event)
    {
        event.Skip();
    }
...

==============================================================================

Signin.h

Code: Select all

#ifndef SIGNIN_H
#define SIGNIN_H
#include "wxcrafter.h"

class Signin : public SigninDialog
{
public:
    Signin(wxWindow* parent);
    virtual ~Signin();
protected:
    virtual void OnBtnLoginClicked(wxCommandEvent& event);
};
#endif // SIGNIN_H

==============================================================================

Signin.cpp

Code: Select all

#include "Signin.h"
#include <wx/msgdlg.h>

Signin::Signin(wxWindow* parent)
    : SigninDialog(parent)
{
}

Signin::~Signin()
{
}

void Signin::OnBtnLoginClicked(wxCommandEvent& event)
{
    ::wxMessageBox(_("Hello World"));
}

This setup yields no reaction when clicked.
No compilation errors are raised during build.
What code or steps am I missing?
Note that this dialog box is not the mainFrame window.
Thanks!

This is the relevant section in my MainFrame.cpp
The bottom shows the connect event code.
As mentioned, nothing happens when the button btnLogin is clicked.

MainFrame.cpp

Code: Select all

SigninDialog::SigninDialog(wxWindow* parent,
    wxWindowID id,
    const wxString& title,
    const wxPoint& pos,
    const wxSize& size,
    long style)
    : wxDialog(parent, id, title, pos, size, style)
{
    if(!bBitmapLoaded) {
        // We need to initialise the default bitmap handler
        wxXmlResource::Get()->AddHandler(new wxBitmapXmlHandler);
        wxC9ED9InitBitmapResources();
        bBitmapLoaded = true;
    }

    wxBoxSizer* SigninSizer = new wxBoxSizer(wxHORIZONTAL);
    this->SetSizer(SigninSizer);

    btnLogin = new wxButton(this, wxID_ANY, _("Enter"), wxDefaultPosition, wxDLG_UNIT(this, wxSize(-1, -1)), 0);

    SigninSizer->Add(btnLogin, 0, wxALL, WXC_FROM_DIP(5));

    SetName(wxT("SigninDialog"));
    SetSize(wxDLG_UNIT(this, wxSize(500, 300)));
    if(GetSizer()) {
        GetSizer()->Fit(this);
    }
    if(GetParent()) {
        CentreOnParent(wxBOTH);
    } else {
        CentreOnScreen(wxBOTH);
    }
#if wxVERSION_NUMBER >= 2900
    if(!wxPersistenceManager::Get().Find(this)) {
        wxPersistenceManager::Get().RegisterAndRestore(this);
    } else {
        wxPersistenceManager::Get().Restore(this);
    }
#endif
    // Connect events
    btnLogin->Connect(wxEVT_COMMAND_BUTTON_CLICKED, wxCommandEventHandler(SigninDialog::OnBtnLoginClicked), NULL, this);
}

SigninDialog::~SigninDialog()
{
    btnLogin->Disconnect(
        wxEVT_COMMAND_BUTTON_CLICKED, wxCommandEventHandler(SigninDialog::OnBtnLoginClicked), NULL, this);
}

==============================================================
What could be the problem?

Thanks!

The button works when I use it in my MainFrame, but it doesn't when it is on a secondary dialog or secondary frame.
I need to create a Sign-in dialog box before entering the MainFrame. What is the correct way to go about this?
Thanks!
