[Fxruby-users] Scintilla FXDataTarget Bug?

[Joseph <rub...@te...>]

Hi.

Jeroen, thanks for enlightening me (in more detail) to layout management and FXSplitter. It came in handy.

A new problem:
I was experimenting with FXDataTarget, FXText, and FXScintilla.  The 
FXScintilla widget does not appear to be working with FXDataTarget objects.
In Detail (code follows below)
I have a FXText widget, and a FXScintilla widget. Each is connected to 
its own FXDataTarget instance. I initialize the two FXDataTarget 
instances to a static value, and then implement a button handler that 
prints out the value of both FXDataTarget instances.
1. The static text assigned to the DataTarget associated with the FXText 
instance is displayed in the FXText widget, however, FXScintilla does 
not display the text assigned to the DataTarget associated with the 
FXScintilla widget.
2. If I type something into both the FXText widget, as well as the 
FXScintilla widget, then the DataTarget associated with the FXText now 
contains the text that was entered interactively, whereas the DataTarget 
prints the text that was originally assigned to the DataTarget 
programmatically. I.e. if I hit the "Print" button, then the new value 
is printed for the FXText DataTarget, but the Scintilla DataTarget does 
not print the modified contents that was typed into the Scintilla widget.

Is FXScintilla forgetting to update the associated FXDataTarget 
instance? Here are the code snippets, plus results:

#>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    @textTarget = FXDataTarget.new("")
    @msgTarget = FXDataTarget.new("")

    @msgTarget.value = "static msgTest value"
    @textTarget.value = "static testTarget value"

    printButton = FXButton.new(buttons, "&Print")      
    printButton.connect(SEL_COMMAND)  do |sender, selector, data|
      print "@textTarget.value = [" + @textTarget.value + "]\n"
      print "@msgTarget.value = [" + @msgTarget.value  + "]\n"
    end       

    @tx = FXText.new(textframe, @textTarget, FXDataTarget::ID_VALUE,
       TEXT_WORDWRAP | LAYOUT_SIDE_TOP | LAYOUT_FILL_X | LAYOUT_FILL_Y)
    @sctl = FXScintilla.new(sctlframe, @msgTarget, FXDataTarget::ID_VALUE,
       LAYOUT_SIDE_TOP | LAYOUT_FILL_X | LAYOUT_FILL_Y) 
#<<<<<<<<<<<<<
@textTarget.value = [FXText test]
@msgTarget.value = [static msgTest value]

Any ideas?
TIA,
Joseph
