Re: [wxCode-users] How to provide dialogs in components

[Joseph B. <jb...@um...>]

If you like the flexibility, then XRC resources can be great.  I set up 
the wxSpellChecker component to use XRC resources for most of the dialogs, 
but one of the samples uses a hard coded dialog to demonstrate adding 
custom functionality beyond what my "cookie-cutter" XRC based dialogs 
handled.
I found out how great XRC-based dialogs could be when I asked someone 
to test the interface and tell me what he thought.  He remarked that a combo box 
on the dialog should be sorted.  Thanks to XRC resources, only a text 
editor was needed to change the combo box style and fix the problem.
