Hello.
I'm trying to teach myself wxlua. There are alot of examples for it online but not so many tutorials. Most documentation is for wxwidgets and it's pretty thick.
Any recommendations for a tutorial?
I still get a bit confused on what steps in order I'd need to take in order to be able to place where controls go. A form builder like visual basic would be nice too.
I understand lua pretty well, but I'm not so good at wxwidgets yet.
Any suggestions? Thanks.
The wxLua documentation refers to a large number of example applications. I would suggest reviewing the sample code as a great learning experience. Each listed sample should be included with your wxLua installation.
You are correct that wxFormBuilder generates XRC files. Fortunately, the calculator.wx.lua sample code "*emonstrates loading and using controls from an XRC resource." So, that is still a viable option for use with wxLua.
Otherwise, wxWidgets is a very large library and more Lua-specific instruction would be a huge effort and largely redundant.
