wxlua-users — wxLua list for users and developers

Re: [wxlua-users] cannot make wxlua on Ubuntu

[John L. <jla...@gm...>]

It sounds like your wxWidgets build is incomplete for the media control.
Did you build it yourself? You'll need to rebuild it, but take note of the
warnings during the configure stage and install the devel libaries for
gstreamer until configure says that nothing is missing. You may need
libcairo for wxgcdc.

The wxlua app should build is wxluafreeze built. Running $wxluafreeze
editor.wx.lua is the same as running wxlua.

Again, I am w/o a computer or time for this week...

Re: [wxlua-users] Compiling wx.dll

[John L. <jla...@gm...>]

Yes, I tried with cmake to build a wx.dll staticly linked to the wxWidgets
dlls and it works well,  but with a million useless warnings about how you
are not exporting wxWidgets functions.

What you did sounds great and I didn't know it was so easy, I'll add it to
the install docs.

Re: [wxlua-users] cannot make wxlua on Ubuntu

[Milind G. <mil...@gm...>]

Ok,
       Was finally able to run wxlua applications. They seem to be running
but the media.wx.lua does not run. Gives the error:

lua: media.wx.lua:131: attempt to call field 'wxMediaCtrl' (a nil value)
stack traceback:
media.wx.lua:131: in function 'main'
media.wx.lua:305: in main chunk
[C]: ?


Don't know why that is the case. Also don't have the wxlua executable
anywhere. I only see wxluacan and wxluafreeze. I did skip the wxstedit
compilation, maybe that prevented wxlua creation? Trying wxstedit
compilation now but it just won't compile. First there were include files
it could not find now I get this error on running make:

g++ -o ../samples/stedit/wxstedit wxstedit_wxstedit.o  -L../lib  -L../lib

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [../samples/stedit/wxstedit] Error 1


Any tips on how to get wxlua IDE? Thats the main thing I want to get.

Re: [wxlua-users] cannot make wxlua on Ubuntu

[Milind G. <mil...@gm...>]

Hi John,
                Thank you very much for your reply.t worked after that and
so did make install. But now when I try the example on the wxLua website:

require("wx")
frame = wx.wxFrame(wx.NULL, wx.wxID_ANY, "wxLua Minimal Demo",
                   wx.wxDefaultPosition, wx.wxSize(450, 450),
                   wx.wxDEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE)

-- create a simple file menu
local fileMenu = wx.wxMenu()
fileMenu:Append(wx.wxID_EXIT, "E&xit", "Quit the program")
-- create a simple help menu
local helpMenu = wx.wxMenu()
helpMenu:Append(wx.wxID_ABOUT, "&About",
                "About the wxLua Minimal Application")

-- create a menu bar and append the file and help menus
local menuBar = wx.wxMenuBar()
menuBar:Append(fileMenu, "&File")
menuBar:Append(helpMenu, "&Help")
-- attach the menu bar into the frame
frame:SetMenuBar(menuBar)

-- create a simple status bar
frame:CreateStatusBar(1)
frame:SetStatusText("Welcome to wxLua.")

-- connect the selection event of the exit menu item to an
-- event handler that closes the window
frame:Connect(wx.wxID_EXIT, wx.wxEVT_COMMAND_MENU_SELECTED,
              function (event) frame:Close(true) end )
-- connect the selection event of the about menu item
frame:Connect(wx.wxID_ABOUT, wx.wxEVT_COMMAND_MENU_SELECTED,
        function (event)
            wx.wxMessageBox('This is the "About" dialog of the Minimal
wxLua sample.',
                            "About wxLua",
                            wx.wxOK + wx.wxICON_INFORMATION,
                            frame)
        end )

-- finally, show the frame window
frame:Show(true)




I get these messages and nothing happens:

(lua5.1:11526): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in
module_path: "pixmap",

(lua5.1:11526): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in
module_path: "pixmap",

(lua5.1:11526): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in
module_path: "pixmap",

(lua5.1:11526): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in
module_path: "pixmap",


I am not sure what is wrong. Any help would be really appreciated.
Another thing is that when I type wxlua on the prompt it says command not
found. How do I run the integrated IDE provided by wxlua?

Thanks,
Milind

As a temporary measure, if you don't plan on using a wxImageHistogram, you
can rem out the contents of that funtion and have it return 0. I'll look
into it in the new year.

Like this, it is oke:

                             if (argType == "wxChar") then
                                 argTypeWithAttrib = "wxString "
                                 argListOverride = argName..".IsEmpty() ? (wxChar*)NULL :

                             end

I don't only need to generate an executable, but several libraries and also configuration files, 
containing things from wxLua.
I supply that to the wxart2d user, so he does not have to bother about "library paths, linking 
order, include order etc". Also things to wrap extra bindings are part of it.

To use it they way you want, i need two types of configuration, the old 2.8 way using wx like 
naming, and your new names for 2.9
And that in a rather different manner.

So its because i  use the variables i normally generate when finding wxLua the Cmake way with 
FindPackage().
They go into files that are next configured with Cmake.
But i did send a mail that talks about that.
Variables like this:

      wxLua_INCLUDE_DIRS
      wxLua_LIBRARY_DIRS
      wxLua_LIBRARIES
      wxLua_LIBRARIES_WXLIKE
      wxLua_PREFIX

I need to fill them again, using your assembled lists. Which i would prefer you added to a
wxLuaConfig.cmake.in in wxLua itself.
So i do not have to puzzle through your functions to find out how to get the stuff i need.
That is exactly why CMake tries to define such an interface to packages.
ADD_SUBDIRECTORY() does not supply or define an interface at all.  Leafing it to me to get the information some way.
I know it should be simple to fill those variables, after adding ADD_SUBDIRECTORY().

Anyway it is not that i don't want to use ADD_SUBDIRECTORY() but keeping two systems working at the same time, with the second having libraries in deep paths etc. is a bit to much.
As i explained it makes it much easier when concentrated these in one place.

In principle that is what i added to wxLuaConfig.cmake.in to make it work again. (apart from 
changing the

set (LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH ${wxLua_BINARY_DIR}/lib ) and set (EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH ${wxLua_BINARY_DIR}/bin )

Just take a look, no ministry there:
http://wxart2d.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/wxart2d/trunk/wxArt2D/packages/wxart2d/share/wxlua/wxLuaConfig.cmake.in?revision=279&view=markup

But why don't you call it ${wxLua_LIBRARIES} and ${wxLua_INCLUDE_DIRS} so one does not need to 
figure it out himself.
And it can change it the future without problem.

BTW i also changed all includes to one include dir. Works better as you say when installing.

As a temporary measure, if you don't plan on using a wxImageHistogram, you

The compiler wants c_str() converted to the same type as NULL maybe?
Maybe the best way is to cast it to wxChar*.

Does this work as a fix? I can't test it now.

bindings/genwxbind.lua line 3443

if (argType == "wxChar") then
    argTypeWithAttrib = "wxString "

  -- argListOverride = argName..".IsEmpty() ? NULL : "..argName..".c_str()"
  -- change to
    argListOverride = argName..".IsEmpty() ? (wxChar*)NULL :
"..(wxChar*)argName..".c_str()"

Why doesn't it just work when do ADD_SUBDIRECTORY("path/to/wxLua"
"Output/path") then put in the libs and includes just like the
wxLua/apps/CMakeLists.txt?

No, I don't need to do anything special with a project I have that
links to a couple wxCode projects and wxLua.

All I do is in a top-level CMakeLists.txt is do the
ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(wxLua....) as above, then for anything that depends
on it ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(other/project...)

In the other project I only have these

include_directories( ${wxLua_ROOT_DIR}/
                     ${wxLua_ROOT_DIR}/modules/
                     ${wxLua_ROOT_DIR}/modules/lua/src
                     ${wxLua_ROOT_DIR}/apps/wxluaedit/src
                     ${wxLua_ROOT_DIR}/modules/wxbind/setup)

and link to these libs
        wxLuaBindLib
        wxLuaSocketLib
        wxLuaDebugLib
        wxLuaLib

The install for wxLua is broken since it doesn't have a normal
directory structure. I am debating switching to a more conventional
layout so I could have #include "wxlua/blah.h" instead of the current
#include "wxlua/include/blah.h"

I won't have time until January to anything.

[wxlua-users] binding issues

[klaas.holwerda <ng...@kl...>]

Hi John,

I get the following error in the bindings, and wonder what to do??

string.IsEmpty() ? NULL : string.c_str()

Changed to:

string.c_str() or just string makes it compile.

This happens i think in all cases where const wxChar *string is an argument.

Like in here:

//     void XmlEncodeStringToStream( const wxChar *string, size_t len = wxString::npos )
static int LUACALL wxLua_a2dIOHandlerXMLWrite_XmlEncodeStringToStream(lua_State *L)
{
     // get number of arguments
     int argCount = lua_gettop(L);
     // size_t len = wxString::npos
     size_t len = (argCount >= 3 ? (size_t)wxlua_getuintegertype(L, 3) : wxString::npos);
     // const wxChar string
     wxString  string = wxlua_getwxStringtype(L, 2);
     // get this
     a2dIOHandlerXMLWrite * self = (a2dIOHandlerXMLWrite *)wxluaT_getuserdatatype(L, 1, 
wxluatype_a2dIOHandlerXMLWrite);
     // call XmlEncodeStringToStream
     self->XmlEncodeStringToStream(string.IsEmpty() ? NULL : string.c_str(), len);

     return 0;
}

Re: [wxlua-users] Cmake how?

[klaas.holwerda <ng...@kl...>]

ADD_SUB_DIRECTORY became too complicated, and i would need to make to many changes, maybe later.
For the moment my original approach was the easiest to get working.

With some of the suggested changes ( libs and exe in one place), and changes to my FindWxLua cmake 
files, i am now able to start wrapping again.
Made a switch on wxWidgets version to use the new library names.

One thing i noticed is that i must build in the wxLua trunk itself. If not wxLua_ROOT_DIR pointing 
to the build directory is not enough.
Some files i need must come from the trunk. With bakefile it seems i did the same, but there i did 
set the WXLUA env variable to get to these files.
Also after an install (with CMake), files are taken from the binary and source tree, and combined as 
one install. Like all headers, generated and  already there.

I don't know what is the right way to handle this non installed usage of a package. I myself solved 
it using two wxLuaConfig.cmake files one for installing and one for a normal build only find.

Now i first need to get rid of the wrapping compile errors to make sure it works.

Re: [wxlua-users] Cmake how?

[klaas.holwerda <ng...@kl...>]

John,

It is more complicated then i thought it would be.
My users need to use the libraries of wxart2d + wxlua etc., and i supply them a wxArt2DConfig.cmake 
with all in it.
I need access to wxLua binding generator, and some more stuff.
Somehow i need to gather this information, and i know you have it around, but don't know how to get 
it yet from your lists.
Must be something like using ${ADD_LIBRARY_LIST} etc.

The easiest would be to have wxLuaConfig.cmake.in configured to containing information like this:

     wxLua_INCLUDE_DIRS
     wxLua_LIBRARY_DIRS
     wxLua_LIBRARIES
     wxLua_LIBRARIES_WXLIKE
     wxLua_PREFIX
     wxLua_wxWidgets_SELECTED_CONFIG

My own to detect wxLua without having it itself is here:
http://wxart2d.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/wxart2d/trunk/wxArt2D/packages/wxart2d/share/wxlua/wxLuaConfig.cmake.in?revision=274&view=markup

Also would you mind adding this, to at least have the libraries in one place?
Does not make a difference for your approach, but makes it easier to find it all for me, and makes 
it more compatible with what it was.

#set (LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH ${wxLua_BINARY_DIR}/lib )
set (LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH ${wxLua_BINARY_DIR}/lib CACHE PATH "Single output directory for building 
all libraries." FORCE )
#set (EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH ${wxLua_BINARY_DIR}/bin/ CACHE PATH "Single output directory for 
building all executables.")

At last i was able to make my FindwxWidgets.cmake work also for your files, if not i did get a 
conflict, between the default cmake version and mine when
I include the

ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(${wxLua_ROOT_DIR} ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIRECTORY}/wxLua)

Maybe there is more to on that, but i can't get that far yet.

If you don't have time, it can wait, i keep using the bakefile generated stuff for time being.
Else i keep on hacking, trying to make this work.

Regards,

Klaas

No it's far simpler. You simply add a variable in your CMakeLists.txt file

set(wxLua_ROOT_DIR ${wxLua_ROOT_DIR} CACHE PATH "Set the path to the
root directory of wxLua containing the CMakeLists.txt file")
They set this variable in the cmake-gui or the command line and you
can easily check it in your CMakeLists.txt file with

IF (EXISTS ${wxLua_ROOT_DIR}/CMakeLists.txt)
    # Note that wxLua could be anywhere
    ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(${wxLua_ROOT_DIR} ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIRECTORY}/wxLua)
ELSE()
    MESSAGE(WARNING "Invalid path to the wxLua library : '${wxLua_ROOT_DIR}'")
ENDIF()

When the user builds wxArt2D they will also build wxLua with the same settings.

There is no good solution to this, the libs can be
libwxlua_gtk2ud_2.9_blah.so, but the executables can't really contain
unicode/debug info in their names so the last one you install
overwrites the previous ones. I imagine that people that are building
or working on an app would only choose one flavor and use that. If you
are a developer of a library that uses wxLua/wxArt2D then, yes, you do
have to worry about testing all the build types, but you wouldn't want
to install them.

Once the libs are given full names and the BlahConfig.cmake file the
install will work ok.  I never install libraries like these, I just
leave them in their build dir in my home directory, but I understand
that others do want to install them.

Your FindwxWidgets looks nice. The CMake one in 2.8.6 is awful, it
doesn't give any indication about why it failed. I would like to have
one that prints out exactly what was found since the idea is that the
user will need to select one of them.

It was a shame, I really appreciated his help on Bakefile and it
did/does work well, but I have been struggling with it since. Even
doing the simplest things took hours and I still can't get configure
to respect --prefix. I will probably keep them around and CMake will
be an additional build system.

I do not love relying on the CMake executables, but the ability to
configure the directories for dependent libraries sure beats using
environment variables. I think the key to getting the most out of
CMake with wxCode is being able to load them all (the maintained ones)
into Visual Studio. This allows people to very easily browse them,
build and run the samples, and allows components to very easily link
with each other.

--------------------

In any case, I won't have too much time to work on anything for the
next couple weeks.

Oke, but that i have to explain to users wanting to use wxart2d with wxlua.
Saying if you want to compile different versions( deb/uni) of wxart2d with wxLua, you have to make 
paths like this and that, else i don't know how to detect it.
And on Linux, imagine installing wxLua, what is it (unicode or not etc.)
I find my way out, but for the starting developer it is all to complex. They think configure/make 
install.
Which is close enough to cmake-gui/configure/make install.
On windows it is always more XXX_ROOT_DIR driven, but even there install is possible.

Yes i get that. That is why for wxCode like stuff ( just one lib), your approach might be better.
But if others start installing the same libraries (on Linux), and i would install wxLua/wxStedit as 
part of wxart2d, it becomes scary.

That is what FindXXX.cmake + UseXXX.cmake is about i think.
Maybe sometimes like in wxCode, the FindXXX is not really needed, and only the last will do.

Right, i think the generalized approach of Find_Package in Cmake, is working with XXXConfig.cmake.
The generalized FindPackage uses that file. And together with UseXXX it is complete.
Which for wxart2d i do generate, using the assembled lists like you do.
I somehow feel that what you suggest is the same, but less formal. The major ingredient, is to have 
such a file (call it XXXConfig.cmake), with the settings.
Find_Package only looks for paths where it can be found.

I myself do something in between (still have a FindwxArt2D.cmake but should not be needed) :

http://wxart2d.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/wxart2d/trunk/wxArt2D/packages/wxart2d/share/wxart2d/FindwxArt2D.cmake

See INCLUDE(${WXART2D_DIR_SHARE}/wxArt2DConfig.cmake)

Used like:

FIND_PACKAGE( wxArt2D )
IF( WXART2D_FOUND )
     INCLUDE(${WXART2D_USE_FILE})

Yep my own FindwxWidgest, sets thing like lib name pre/post stuff variables to use by the user.
That is how i synchronize libraries to wxLua and wxWidgets looking at how they are named.
I also, like you do, have functions, to assemble lists of what was added in terms of libraries and 
includes, defines etc.
(wxart2dMacros.cmake).

http://wxart2d.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/wxart2d/trunk/wxArt2D/packages/wxart2d/share/

I needed that to later generate a cmake configure file for users of the software.
I still need the build.cfg file (wxwidgets produces that), and seeing your trick to get version.h 
info, i think that is better, will copy that ;-)
And other things you talk about, might be interesting for me too.

That is right, i also do like to have everything in one. And sofar i did it using 
"include_external_msproject", which works for VC.
code blocks i just included into it into the workspace.
But like you do, it just is one big pile of code producing libraries etc. Which is simple, and often 
simple is best.
I am just trying to oversee the consequences, where it might go wrong.

To me too!
But if every wxCode module produces a library, there might be a problem at install stage.
That is what i try to figure out.

Yep, will look how you did it, maybe i can improve my own versions, or just use yours.
It helps to see how others solve a similar problem.
_ADD_SUBDIRECTORY did not know about the underscore, to call what i think is the original version??
That's a nice trick.

Maybe have a look at my FindwxWidgets, it seems you use the one from Cmake itself.
Which i think is not very good. If we manage to sync up a common FindwxWidgets delivering what we 
need, we might be able to get it into Cmake and/or wxCode
Like your WX_HASLIB stuff, is very much like i do search for all available libs, unless i missed 
something.
Maybe add your component checking in there and have something which can be used in general.

We need something simple. The package system from Fransesco did not work out.
Hopefully this is the solution.

I give my out-of-tree build dir the complete build name, compiler,

1) The FindXXX methods could be nice, but for small libraries like
wxstedit seem like overkill.

2) Simply adding the sources to your CMake project ensures that they
are built *exactly* the same as your project and the dependencies work
great if anything gets updated.

3) An alternative would be to create a USE_wxStEdit.cmake file in the
build dir that another app/lib would call
INCLUDE("USE_wxStEdit.cmake") to have the correct definitions,
variables for libs, and whatnot set.

I really like linking together the CMake files since you get a great
Visual Studio or Code::Blocks project that you can use to build,
debug, etc... The only downside is that rebuilding cleans a little
more than it should. They need to have a 'clean' that only cleans the
current project, not every dependent project.

> We best find a single Cmake approach for wxCode components. Looking around there, it seems you

There are some other projects in wxCode that I would have liked to
use, but was afraid to get involved in their build system. I think a
clear set of CMakeLists.txt files to allow you to link a few wxCode
projects together with your own executable makes a lot of sense. I
have tried to make everything in CMakewxAppLib.cmake and
CMakeFunctions.txt (I want to rename both of them eventually) so they
don't overwrite anybody's settings.

You'll notice that I have some wrapper functions for ADD_LIBRARY() and
ADD_EXECUTABLE(), ADD_LIBRARY_FULL() and ADD_EXECUTABLE_FULL() which
keep track of what has been added so that you can make lists of them
and do a lot of interesting things. It would not even be so hard to
setup an automated build system.

I am open to suggestions about the two files I have above. I will add
a function to create a wxlike-libname, wx{your-lib-name}[u][d]-2x...
to make that part easier.

Eventually, we can add a CMakeLists.txt at the root of
wxCode/components to make it very simple to load all of them that have
CMakeLists.txt. In fact, I already do this, but I also include wxLua
and two other personal projects. What stops people (including myself)
from using wxCode components is that it's hard to learn how to build
other people's projects and if we can unify them everything becomes
simple and the wxCode projects can be tried with little effort.

Ahh, the variable that sets that is cached as wxLuaBind_COMPONENTS.
Please set it to match the variable wxWidgets_COMPONENTS (it's a list
of wxWidgets libs; base, core, adv...)

It might be best to clean the CMake build dir and start over. I now
check that all libs in wxLuaBind_COMPONENTS are in
wxWidgets_COMPONENTS and warn if they're not.

Hope it will now work for you. Thanks for the testing, you're finding
things that I had not come across.

Re: [wxlua-users] Cmake how?

[klaas.holwerda <ng...@kl...>]

And 2.9.3 has the same OpenGl issue.

Apart from that, all that is compiled is rather different from what it was.
Libraries named different, locations also.
The naming was rather handy for me, to have debug/unicode/release versions etc. seperated when 
detecting stedit and wxlua (after install).
Now i don't know what to do.
WxStedit becomes part of wxLua, using an include.
But what if there is more flavors  of wxWidgets (univ, unicode etc. ).
How will i now what was compiled in what fashion?
Or i need to switch over to the same big project approach with includes, in that case it does not 
matter, since it is all compiled as one.
So no more find packages (and install) for wxstedit and wxlua in that case. A bit against Cmake its 
FindXXX method, but then again it is easier.
It seems an always use the source code approach, but only when using Cmake, which i don't mind ;-)

What is your idea about all this?

Hi John,

2.8.12 no compiles.
But in 2.9.2 i get problems with OpenGl. ( i am using default wxWidgets).
Maybe the test for that in CMake is not done??

These were recently renamed. I have now made then #ifdefed for 2.9.3
instead of 2.9.2 and that should work. Though if you have a checkout
half-way between 2.9.2 and 2.9.3 then there's nothing I can do and you
should just update.

This really does seem like a overload problem. wxLua tries to call the
wxCursor(wxString, ...) constructor using a wxString as the first
parameter, but somehow the compiler thinks that the const char[] is
equally good. I don't know if I blame the compiler, but I don't think
we can do much more than #ifdefing that function for > 2.8 ||
__UNICODE__. In 2.9 the second parameter is the enum wxBitmapType so
you won't see this problem. Note that I had just typedefed
wxBitmapType to an int in 2.8 to simplify things.

Both of these problems should be fixed for you in SVN now.
