[wxCode-users] newbie question

[Christian B. <ys...@gm...>]

Do I understand wxCode right that that is the way to get new code in the
official wxWidgets release?

concret: I want a CopyDir() function in wxWidgets. I would write it, but
not for my own. And there is somewhere a CopyDir() function from an
other wx-user.

No, wxCode is a repository for small to medium sized projects that are
add-ons to wxWidgets providing new widgets, data classes or whatnot.

There were some answers about this on wx-users IIRC. For single little
functions like this putting them into a new project wxCode would be
overkill. I haven't used wxforum myself, but it looks like a good
place to put functions like this.

I am tempted to add the CopyDir function from here
http://wxforum.shadonet.com/viewtopic.php?t=3D2080
into my filebrowser class which is part of the wxthings project.

wxThings is not available
http://wxcode.sourceforge.net/components/wxthings/

filebrowser sounds very interessting. I am developing a special backup
application this time. :)

There is no wxThing component on the wxCode sourceforge site.

And I'd like to look once at your filebrowser class, if I could use it 
in my wyoFiler. Is it available somewhere?

Can you describe your wyoFiler? Is it a application, a class, ...? What
does it do? Can we use it?

When I took over responsibility of wxCode it was mostly to allow anybody 
to release useful code without being dependent on the wxWidgets core 
team if the code is accepted or not. and it's a place where the code is 
maintained by anybody who has time. Since there is almost no difference 
if code is within  wxCode or wxWidgets it's not necessary to move over 
albeit it would mean some kind of blessing. In any way putting code 
first at wxCode has the advantage to see if others really want it. 
Beside I guess so far any larger project uses some code from wxCode.

About your case, there is no limitation in the size of a component 
albeit you should at least be determined enough to maintain the code. 
Code which isn't maintained for a longer period will be removed. And you 
should consider how your code fits into the structure of wxCode and 
wxWidgets.
