It's quite possible: It uses a wxWindows target using g++ and is limited to Win/OSX/Linux (untested, should work). Static compilation (debug is a whopping 25mb large, but only 3.3MB release). Does not use mojo. The only big question I have, is that does anyone know of a way to implicitly convert a monkey String to a wxString class? This would save a lot of glue code writing. My only thought is to inject the conversion code into the String class during transcode. Thoughts? |

| looking good, ah dunno 'bout them new fangled string thangs though |
| ||
| That's awesome Adam. I think wxWidgets has mobile platform aspirations... :-) |

| Ok, Menu bars are working, haven't tackled events yet. But the way I'm managing wxString is as follows: [monkeycode] Class MyFrame Extends wxFrame Global MINIMAL_ABOUT:=wxID_ABOUT Field fileMenu:wxMenu Field menuBar:wxMenuBar Method CreateMenu() fileMenu= New wxMenu fileMenu.Append(MINIMAL_ABOUT, wxString("&About...F1"), wxString("Show about dialog")) menuBar= New wxMenuBar() menuBar.Append(fileMenu, wxString("&File")) SetMenuBar(menuBar) Print 400 End End [/monkeycode] So all strings passed to wxStuff needs to be wxString(monkey String). Does anyone see any potential problems with this offhand? The reason for this is that I can blast through the wxWidget API. It's all monkey-side, with very little glue. Much easier given the high number of functions I'd have to cover. If it works for eveyone, then I'll blast away, and see if I can't come up with a github soon. |

| I would have no problem with wxString. Great job! |
| ||
| This is absolutely great. I know it's to soon to ask this, but do you see any way of implementing mojo into this. |
| ||
| seeing as you are writing your own target, could you not make a modified trans similar to how the bmax target does? Just simply convert your strings into wxStrings there? btw awesome stuff, it would be brilliant coding apps in monkey! |
| ||
| Just simply convert your strings into wxStrings there I could do that for straight quotes, but not for defined Strings, as that is monkey controlled. I wouldn't want to change EVERY String to wxString, so it'd be quite a chore to write a parser to identity string use. |
| ||
| Ah of course I didn't think of that. wxString seems fine in that case. |
| ||
| This in combination with some robust database access could make some nice apps. Is anyone aware of anything that might work for Monkey on the db front? |
| ||
| Probably SQLite as I'd imagine this would be most supported on many targets already. |

| ||
| That looks nice! I looked around yesterday and didn't see it. How big of a process is it to wrap? I have never done it but I would be very interested. |

| AHAHAHAHAAH! I have events working in wxMonkey now. It was difficult, but the solution works! I had to incorporate function pointers by way of intercepting the TransFunc() and others to get the trans to accept my function passing. Plus I had to do a few other things, but now I have custom classes that will take care of this. This video is similar to what I had to do: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlaUtMVbmI0 [monkeycode] Connect(DYNAMIC_ABOUT, wxID_ANY, wxEVT_COMMAND_MENU_SELECTED, wxCommandFunc(wxMonkeyFunc(DynamicAbout() )) ) Method DynamicAbout:Void(e:wxCommandEvent=Null) Local dialog:wxMessageDialog = wxMessageDialog.Create(MyApp.frame, wxString("This demonstrates dynamic event handling"), wxString("About Dynamic"), wxYES_NO|wxCANCEL) dialog.ShowModal() End [/monkeycode] |

| Nice work :) |

| Ah rothrock programming technique |

| There is a recent Bollywood film about your TRANS hackery. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yBnl_krN_U |
