Hi all,

I have try to use the wxWidgets on OS Lion. And I found I could not
input any text into those text related control. (E.g. wxTextCtrl and
wxGrid). But I could paste the text into it by context menu.

Anyone has idea about it?

Thanks.

which port are you using? Carbon or Cocoa?

2.9.2 can use Carbon as well as Cocoa. How did you compile the
library? If you use configure and didn't pass --with-cocoa or
--with-osx-cocoa then you are using Carbon.

I am not sure what library i am using now. I just use the default setting from macport. is there any method could check it out at runtime?

Or should I realize that the cocoa is not support by wxWidgets?

I think I am using the cocoa. I use the 'wx-config --libs' command, and get below result.

-L/opt/local/lib -framework IOKit -framework Carbon -framework Cocoa -framework AudioToolbox -framework System -framework OpenGL -framework QuickTime -lwx_osx_cocoau_xrc-2.9 -lwx_osx_cocoau_html-2.9 -lwx_osx_cocoau_qa-2.9 -lwx_osx_cocoau_adv-2.9 -lwx_osx_cocoau_core-2.9 -lwx_baseu_xml-2.9 -lwx_baseu_net-2.9 -lwx_baseu-2.9

I am not seeing the problem with either 2.9.2 or trunk (2.9.3) using
Cocoa. I am trying the minimal sample with a wxTextCtrl, on OS X
10.7(.0).
In case you have Xcode 3 or later, could you please try the following?

Download wx 2.9.2 from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/wxwindows/files/2.9.2/wxWidgets-2.9.2.tar.bz2/download
.

Extract the archive and open samples/minimal/minimal_cocoa.xcodeproj

Add the following line at the start of MyFrame::MyFrame in minimal.cpp :

"
new wxTextCtrl(new wxPanel(this), wxID_ANY);
"

Press Cmd+R to Build and Run.

The resulting application allows me to input text (I also tried
successfully with Pinyin Simplified and Traditional).


Regards,
Dimitri

From what I understand you have to (for now) tell Xcode to use the 10.6 SDK instead of 10.7. With Xcode projects you can do this by opening the file:

build/osx/wx.xcconfig

and add the line:

SDKROOT=macosx10.6

Dimitri

Now it is input text ok by Xcode 10.6 sdk and minimal sample with textCtrl.

Does it mean the problem on my side is caused by the error configuration of macport?

Hi All,

Sorry. This problem is caused by my mistaken. I have forgot to create a application bundle for my output.
It is mention at here.

Notice that, by default, Eclipse CDT does not create app bundles, so your app will not be able to come into focus. Seehttp://wiki.wxwidgets.org/WxMac_Issues#My_app_can.27t_be_brought_to_the_front.21 for solutions.
