Event Table problem(wxWidgets)

Expand Post »

When I declare an event table in a class a.k.a DECLARE_EVENT_TABLE(); then try to compile, i always get this error:
[Linker Error] undefined reference to `vtable for Utility' (utility being my class) What does this mean and how do I fix it? All research on this has turned up dead ends =(. Thanks

Re: Event Table problem(wxWidgets)

Presumably something needs to be declared as virtual in Utility. Without code, it's hard to say exactly what.

Re: Event Table problem(wxWidgets)

Here is my Header file:

c++ Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
#ifndef UTILITY_H
#define UTILITY_H
 
#include <wx/wx.h>
 
enum
{
    btn_send = 100,
    btn_main,
    im_box_rec,
    im_box_ent,
    im_box_con,
    im_box_addip,
    im_combo
};
 
class Utility : public wxFrame
{
    public:
        Utility(const wxString &title, const wxPoint &pos, const wxSize &size);
 
    private:
       DECLARE_EVENT_TABLE();
 
};
 
#endif
#ifndef UTILITY_H
#define UTILITY_H

#include <wx/wx.h>

enum
{
    btn_send = 100,
    btn_main,
    im_box_rec,
    im_box_ent,
    im_box_con,
    im_box_addip,
    im_combo
};

class Utility : public wxFrame
{
    public:
        Utility(const wxString &title, const wxPoint &pos, const wxSize &size);

    private:
       DECLARE_EVENT_TABLE();

};

#endif

Re: Event Table problem(wxWidgets)

I don't know wxWidgets, so I'm just guessing here. Try making DECLARE_EVENT_TABLE(); public instead of private.

If that doesn't work, try putting this in your code:

C++ Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE(MyFrame, wxFrame)
END_EVENT_TABLE()
BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE(MyFrame, wxFrame)
END_EVENT_TABLE()

Or, if you aren't goint to have any events, remove DECLARE_EVENT_TABLE(); altogether.

Nah, don't do that, it's good as is. However this:

try putting this in your code:

BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE(MyFrame, wxFrame)
END_EVENT_TABLE()
BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE(MyFrame, wxFrame) END_EVENT_TABLE()

is indeed the answer to your problem.
