Hello again Francesco!
I took your advice, and looked up TortoiseCVS, however, before i even 
install it, i think it would be "wise" for me to learn what CVS is 
exacly and how to
 use it  :-[ , for that i also found the book you sugested, and im 
looking forward to reading it, But like i mentioned before, i been 
finishing up my current "work-to-eat" project, wich must be done by mid 
january or else it gets canceled (wich would probably result in me 
killing myself) :-)  so to be quite honest, i just cant risk spending 
time to learn about CVS right now, so i  just uploaded the .zip file of 
wxMSWResources (source, sample, etc) and added a release of it.
I prommise once i get "out of the hole"  (hopefully in the first days of 
january) ill learn about CVS and do it the proper way.

Thanks for everything!

a webpage even if very very simple is usually recommended; you can just edit the one which 
comes in the "template" folder of wxCode...

you could do it, but please, do first a try to setup a CVS client on your PC and to upload
your sources to CVS.
CVS is a powerful system used to store any kind of files which could be modified
contemporaneously by multiple developers. To know more about CVS, I suggest you to read
the intro of the CVSBOOK freely available chapters (do a google search)...

if you are using win32 (as I guess from your mail user agent) I suggest you to use 
TortoiseCVS: extremely easy to use and almost painless (follow maintguide)

it is *strongly* advised since CVS is a very convenient way to provide sources to other 
developers.
Also, it lets you to take advantage of some things like wxCode bakefile build system (see 
links to bakefile in maintguide) ;)

Thanks for your submission !

[Ernesto R. D. <mid...@ya...>]

Thanks!,
If i may try your patience a little more with my dumb wxCode-newb questions:

Even tho i been writting code for several years now, I have never, ever 
used CVS (to be honest, i have only a vague concept of what it is), and 
i read on the Maintainer guide, that i have to use it to upload the code.
So, considering  were talking about a single 285kb .zip file, plus i 
dont need to add any kind of webpage or anything.(the information shown 
in the components list is enough).
Is there a way i could jump to "Step 3: make a release for your component" ?

Im planning to add another piece of code to wxCode (a very nice 
wxTimeCtrl) soon, will i again have to use CVS to do it? in other words, 
is it absolutely neccesary to use CVS every time i want to add a component?

Thanks again!

Hi,
    I've approved and committed the component to the CVS and added you to the developer 
list; you should be able to commit to wxCode the wxMswRes sources in few hours (as soon as 
Sourceforge gets updated); look at http://wxcode.sourceforge.net/maintguide.php for more 
info...

now I understand ;)
However these categories have other meanings in wxCode categorization system so I removed 
the two categories...

now you can do everything from the "edit your component" link in wxcode.sf.net website.

No, not required; for some reason the SFuser for your wxCode subscription was 'cpp'; I 
adjusted it...

Hello, i chose system and wrapper because the class manages resources 
specific to MSW, so i tought it would be appropiate, and wrapper because 
its a wrapper arround (part) of the W32API (its resources part). 
However, this is in fact the very first time i add a component to 
wxCode, and to be honest, i did it in kinda of a hurry, cause im 
currently involved in a quite large project due next january. But its no 
biggie, if you feel it only belongs in miscellaneous & data container, 
ill put select those. (can you please tell me how do i change those 
settings?)

It'll be a library that you compile and link to, kinda' like
wxWidgets/contrib/gizmos. I don't want it to be just a dump of code,
but rather an easy to compile and use library since that's how I'll be
using it. It is an odd assortment of classes, but I think it's ok,
people can just use the files separately or let the linker strip out
the unused parts.

If we decide to change things later, it's easy enough to move things around=

Hi,

why did you choose 'system' and 'wrapper' as categories ?
I think 'miscellaneous' and 'data container' could be ok (even if the last one was not 
exactly intended for such class...) but 'system' and 'wrapper' no; check out

http://wxcode.sourceforge.net/categories.php

The main goal of the class is to allow you to create apps that do not require ANY external files, like .mo catalogs, images, etc. It automatically creates a unique temp folder, allows you to extract resources of any kind to it from the .exe´s module, and deletes them all when the app is closing. It also allows you to access resource data directly. Make shure you check out the sample app \"MyPics\" provided as a Visual Studio.net 2003 project to learn its usage.

Using UTF-8 is usually the best way to store Unicode strings in the 
database, unless the database has direct Unicode support. But Unicode 
resp. UTF-8 has its drawbacks, since the number of bytes needed in UTF-
8 is usually greater than the number of Unicode characters in the 
string. In most databases a string field is declared as VARCHAR(n) for 
example where n is the maximum number of characters which can be 
stored. If you store UTF-8 strings n is the number of bytes, not the 
number of characters. A Unicode character may occupy 1, 2, 3 or 4 bytes 
in UTF-8.

Maybe the following pages are a good starting point to find examples:

http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html

[wxCode-users] Unicode support in DatabaseLayer

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

I'm working on adding Unicode support in DatabaseLayer and a couple 
questions in case anyone here has done something similar.

1) I'm currently encoding strings to UTF-8 before sending them to the 
database and converting strings from UTF-8 into the local character set 
when reading from the database.  Is there a better way?

2) I'd like to add unit tests to make sure that the original Unicode text 
is preserved.  For this I was planning on reading in text files of 
different character set encodings, placing them in the database as strings 
(VARCHAR), reading the values from the database again, and comparing the 
text file to the retrieved value.  Does anyone know a good place to find 
sample Unicode documents for this purpose?

Thanks for taking the time to read this and for any responses.

I've confirmed that fixes my problem.

My usage typically only works with trees with about 50-100 items on
average. So I'm not really going to be able to give you useful numbers
without writing up test case code. I currently use Compuware
DevPartner Profiler (free useful MSVC profiler available) and would
recommend it.

A non-rectangular form. In the samples/shaped example that comes with
wxGTK source, Robin Dunn shows how to modify a frame form to a
non-rectangular shape, based on a bitmap.

I've tried to add a text editor (wxTextCtrl in the case) to this frame.
But the text is not restricted to the, now, visible part of the frame.
For example, if I make my frame a circle and add a text control to it,
the text continues to be written as if the frame is still a rectangle.

I've read wxTextCtrl and wxScintilla  APIs and have not found a way to
restrict rendering the text to, only, within the frame's shaped area.

Is that possible with wxScintilla, Otto ?

Whenever the Y-pos is needed as in this case, the positions have to be 
calculated since through different actions (adding, deleting, expanding, 
etc) any Y-pos might be wrong. So it's best if the all the positions 
were just calculated before. In the case of inserting an item this means 
the positions are calculated twice but this seems bearable. Position 
calculation is now done only before the Y-pos is needed and in OnIdle, 
therefore ExpandAll should now be a little faster.

I've just tried to expand all with the WindowsExplorer on a 100 
folder/4000file directory and it takes for ages, I had to kill the 
explorer. I also tried it with wyoFiler but it neither seems to work. Is 
anybody able to profile the wxTreeListCtrl?

[wxCode-users] wxScintilla :: applying shapes

[Joao M. <joa...@gm...>]

Hi.

I've read the sample 'shaped' (by Robin Dunn) and was trying to get a
text editor to work within the shape.

Unfortunatelly the shape does not apply to the text editor. When I type
something it permirts the text to be out of the shape.

I've read wxTextCtrl source/API and wxScintilla API but could not find a
way apply a shape to a text editor.

Is it possible with these editors (wxTextCtrl and wxScintilla) ?

Does anyone have any point/reference I should read ?

Any ideas ?

Thanks.
Joao Macaiba.

Looking at your changes here...
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/wxcode/wxCode/components/treelistctrl=
/samples/treelisttest/treelisttest.cpp?r1=3D1.21&r2=3D1.23

That is all that was needed, and looks correct (the second commit you
made anyway, v1.23, not v1.22). If that's not giving you issues, I'll
need more time to look this over when I get back into work tomorrow.
Now that I think about it, it's possible it only happens when both the
current item and the new one are scrolled well out of the repaint
area. I was testing by selecting the last item in the default tree in
the sample, resizing the window to maybe about a quarter to a half of
the size so the selected item was out of the view, then selecting
insert from the menu. If you still can't come up with something, I'll
put in some further testing tomorrow.

I realized that I didn't mention I'm on MSW in any of these posts or
the patch description if that makes any difference (I can't see how it
would though).

Bryan Petty

I've added the EnsureVisible call after the Insert in OnInsertItem but 
can't understand your problem. As long as there is a current item I can 
insert or add as much as I want. If the current item is outside the 
window (make the window smaller) EnsureVisible scrolls it into the 
window. Can you give me a better test description?
