wxErlang - What is wrong with this code?

Answer 1

Do you get a compilation error?

Change the include_lib line to

-include_lib("wx/include/wx.hrl").

With that change it compiles and I get a blank window when it is run (I'm using erl 5.7.2 on Mac OS X). Is that what you expect?

If you're new to Erlang it's probably easier to start with something more straightforward. It's not too difficult to understand the wx_object man page but only once you've got a handle on OTP and have written a couple of test servers first in my humble opinion. Once you're at that point overlaying how wx works on top of that is a more simple step. Doing both at the same time will be more of a challenge, but your mileage may vary of course...!

Answer 2

I realize this is an old question, but I notice that

-behaviour(wx_object).

is spelled wrong. (You have behavoiur(wx_object).
