Hi, I realized on the wxVTK web page it was claimed not to support wxWidgets 2.8 for the moment. However, I did use the wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor.cxx with my wxWidget 2.8 application. It seemed to work ok, although I haven't tested it thoroughly. So I wonder if it actually supports 2.8 now, or if not, is there anything I should be careful with? Many thanks David |

wxVtk and wxAUI/wxWidgets 2.8.7 are working well here Win32(XP). Is this a good time to update the wxVtk samples to show off some current wx features? The floating/docking panels of wxAUI are very impressive. Any reports from Mac (cocoa/carbon) users? Nigel -----Original Message----- From: wxv...@li...

Hi, I tried the wxVTK samples with wxWidgets 2.8.4 on Ubuntu, it works but there is something strange...the cone does not look as it should, something like the surface normals are not oriented the right way. Anyone experiencing this behaviour? Cheers, Marco |

Great, your patch solved both the problems. Is it going to be merged with the official wxVTK? The patch solved this two problems with wxGTK 2.8, but now, with wxGTK 2.8 I have the same problem I have using wxGTK 2.6 (as I wrote on another thread). Closing the window the application crashes trying to delete the wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor. It seems the use of wxglcanvas makes the application not to free the resources correctly on my system. Any idea? Is there anyone using wxVTK on Ubuntu 7.10?

In fact the main dev on wxVTK is a lazy bastard. Shame on you Mathieu ! You should not rely on release being stable, and instead always try the version from CVS... sorry :( Good luck -Mathieu Ps: there is AFAIK only one patch that did not make it -yet- into wxVTK, and this has to do with a smoother handling of the mouse wheel On Jan 2, 2008 2:35 PM, Marco <tsu...@si...> wrote: > Great, > > your patch solved both the problems.

It would be nice, but this is up to Mathieu. Furthermore, I haven't
tested my patch with older versions of wxWidgets/VTK, so I don't know
if it breaks anything there. It may be wise to test it first.

In the destructor of our wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor derived classes
we use the following:
-----
SetRenderWindow(NULL);
SetInteractorStyle(NULL);
// Normally one has to remove a wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor
object using 'window->Delete()',
// but we also would like 'delete window' to work (which is
needed for e.g. Python wrapping)
// This should be safe as long as the reference count is 1 (i.e.
no other objects have a reference to this object)
// The problem is that we can't use Delete() or Unregister(NULL)
here, because that would recursively invoke the
// destructor. Therefore, we just explicitly decrease the
reference count by 1 if it was 1 (this way you will still
// get a warning from VTK if the reference count afterwards was
not 0).
if (GetReferenceCount() == 1)
{
SetReferenceCount(0);
}
-----
However, the samples already seem to use Delete() instead of 'delete',
so perhaps setting the renderwindow and interactorstyle to NULL before
destruction can solve the problem?
> Is there anyone using wxVTK on Ubuntu 7.10?
We are ;)
If you want to see our app (and sources), just download the VISAN
package from our website: http://www.stcorp.nl/beat
We have a version for Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X.
Best regards,
Sander

Sander/anybody do you have a sourceforge account ? Would anyone like to volonteer in some basic dev work on wxVTK ? It is getting harder and harder to find time to work in this project for me.

Dear Mathieu, I am afraid I also have too many other obligations that eat up my time to take on this task. I can provide you with our updates and patches based on the way we use wxVTK in our own application (as I have done in the past), but can not provide much more at this point.

It doesn't:( Do the wxVTK samples work on your system linking against the system libvtk5 and libwxgtk2.6 or libwxgtk2.8? this is my status: with wxGTK 2.6 the visualization is ok but the application crashes when I close the window; with wxGTK 2.8 *without* your patches I have visualization problems (the ones I described in my previous emails) but the application does not crash; with wxGTK 2.8 *with* your patches the visualization is ok but the application crashes as with wxGTK 2.6; Thanks a lot, Marco |

The output is attached. You have pages after pages of issues with your Intel OpenGL-DRI and X11. You need to find someone that is either able to help you: 1. Reinstall your hardware accelerated graphic driver, or whatever needs to be done to fix your xorg.conf 2. find a way to use software accelerated OpenGL (if ubuntu is like debian, this is simply a matter of installing mesa and remove your intel specific package). On ATI this is simply a matter of setting the proper env variable... I don't like all those issues reported against invalid read in wxGTK either. The code is bad, but there is way too much stuff reported by valgrind, send that to the wx-users list. That's all I can do... -- Mathieu |

I had some offline discussion with Marco on the topic. This provided some insights that I would like to share with the list: The problem that Marco was seeing is something that we at our company have been able to reproduce with our own wxVTK based application. The crash after closing a window seems to happen with Ubuntu 7 (and Debian Unstable (sid)), but not with earlier Ubuntu/Debian releases. The Ubuntu 7 machine of Marco has a "Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/ GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller" driver while our Ubuntu 7 machine uses a Matrox MGA G550 AGP card, so it is therefore most likely not a graphics driver issue. The interesting thing is that I found that installing the wxVTK application on our Ubuntu 7 machine, but running the application remote (using ssh + X11) from an Ubuntu 6 client machine did not trigger the crash. The other way around (install on Ubuntu 6 and run remote from Ubuntu 7 client) also does not result in a crash. However, trying to connect via ssh + X11 from the Ubuntu 7 machine to itself still shows the crash. Since Ubuntu 7 is using GTK 2.12, I was wondering whether it could be this specific GTK version that is causing troubles. Is there anyone on the list that has a non-debian based distribution with this specific GTK version (such as Fedora 8) that can test whether the crash appears on such a system as well?
