[Solved] Itemlist box help

[Ninja]

Hi Daves

i treied the way you suggested and it didnt show the names but it did however show that a item was initially selected but dosnt change if you deselect the item

So i tried putting it back to how i had it before and editing the PicOK function

it now looks like

Code: Select all

bool mainUI::PicOK(const CEGUI::EventArgs& args)
{
    using namespace CEGUI;
try
   {
WindowManager& winMgr = WindowManager::getSingleton();

Editbox* pic_txt = static_cast<Editbox*>(winMgr.getWindow( "pic_txt"));

CEGUI::ItemEntry* list_item =
        (CEGUI::ItemEntry*)((const CEGUI::WindowEventArgs&)args).window;

Imageset* imageset = ImagesetManager::getSingleton().getImageset( "pic" );
      Imageset::ImageIterator iter = imageset->getIterator();
        String setProperty =  (*iter).getName();
    // was the item selected?
    if (list_item->isSelected())
       
        pic_txt->setText("pic:- " + setProperty);

    else
     
        pic_txt->setText("None");
catch (CEGUI::Exception& e)
   {
      MessageBox(NULL, "Oh Oh something messed up !", "Error!",
            MB_ICONEXCLAMATION | MB_OK);
        return 0;

   }
    return true;
}

now allthough it dosnt show if an item was initially selected ie "pic-" and shows "None" initially if i choose any item it will say "pic-01" the first image name in the set no matter what item is selected and if i deselect an item ie no items selected it will show "None" so i think i'am close here.

any ideas

TIA

hiya

ok a little update here's what i have got now i changed teh String as below

Code: Select all

 bool mainUI::PicOK(const CEGUI::EventArgs& args)
{
    using namespace CEGUI;
try
   {
WindowManager& winMgr = WindowManager::getSingleton();

Editbox* pic_txt = static_cast<Editbox*>(winMgr.getWindow( "pic_txt"));

CEGUI::ItemEntry* list_item =
        (CEGUI::ItemEntry*)((const CEGUI::WindowEventArgs&)args).window;

Imageset* imageset = ImagesetManager::getSingleton().getImageset( "pic" );
      Imageset::ImageIterator iter = imageset->getIterator();
       
    // was the item selected?
    if (list_item->isSelected())
        String setProperty =  list_item->getName();
        pic_txt->setText("pic:- " + setProperty);

    else
     
        pic_txt->setText("None");
catch (CEGUI::Exception& e)
   {
      MessageBox(NULL, "Oh Oh something messed up !", "Error!",
            MB_ICONEXCLAMATION | MB_OK);
        return 0;

   }
    return true;
}

and this gives me the ID's of each of the images ie

__CEWIN_UID_0 , __CEWIN_UID_1

etc,etc

but not the acual name

TIA

hiya

little update

i changed the string to

Code: Select all

String setProperty =  list_item->getText();

and now when i select any item it displays its name correctly in the edit box so hopefully now all that i need to do is change the function so it changes the pic will keep you updated and hopefully i get it working if i do i post the code here may help someone else

TIA

[Ninja]

wow wasnt as bad as i thought to get it working

anyways here is the code i now have

Code: Select all

bool mainUI::PicOK(const CEGUI::EventArgs& args)

        (CEGUI::ItemEntry*)((const CEGUI::WindowEventArgs&)args).window;

                Imageset* imageset = ImagesetManager::getSingleton().getImageset( "pic" );
           Imageset::ImageIterator iter = imageset->getIterator();

// was the item selected?
    if (Pic_names->isSelected())
        {
                String setEditBoxTxt =  Pic_names->getText();
                pic_txt->setText( setEditBoxTxt);

        String setPic = "set:" + imageset->getName() + " image:" + Pic_names->getText();

        imageButton->setProperty("NormalImage",  setPic);

        }
    else

        }

}
catch (CEGUI::Exception& e)

        Pic_names->addChildWindow( list_item );


                list_item->subscribeEvent(CEGUI::ItemEntry::EventSelectionChanged,

        return 0;
                }

//Buttons
              //close the window after setting image
         WindowManager::getSingleton().getWindow("Pic_OK")->
         subscribeEvent(PushButton::EventClicked, Event::Subscriber(&mainUI::PicCancel, this));

      WindowManager::getSingleton().getWindow("picselectwindow")->

      if (winMgr.isWindowPresent("background_wnd"))
        {
            Window* background = winMgr.getWindow("background_wnd");
            background->addChildWindow("picselectwindow");
        }
}
        catch (CEGUI::Exception& e)
        {
                fprintf( stderr, "CEGUI error: %s\n", e.getMessage( ).c_str( ) );
                return true;

        }
    // event was handled
    return true;
}

and it works hehe but if someone can see anything wrong code wise please let me know

like to say thanks you to Dave who pointed me in the right direction really apprecaited took me a while to get there but what a journey

[daves]

Really good to hear that you worked through the details. You'll find that cegui is a powerful system to work with, quite flexible, and quite fun as well.



Good luck

[Ninja]

Thanks Daves

no doubt i be asking more Questions soon

[Zenon]

while u are successfully using your implementation i would have a problem to be solved if its ok to post it in this already marked as solved thread;

i'm using newest ogre source compiled with newest cegui sdk in msvc2008;
in my little project i need to make a map selection which looks like this;

Code: Select all

bool StateMainMenu::showLevelSelect( const CEGUI::EventArgs &args ) {

   AIWarsCore::getSingletonPtr()->getRoot()->getSceneManager( "Default SceneManager" )->clearScene();
   CEGUI::WindowManager *wmgr = CEGUI::WindowManager::getSingletonPtr();
   wmgr->destroyAllWindows();

   CEGUI::Window *sheet = wmgr->loadWindowLayout(   (CEGUI::utf8*)"LevelSelect.layout" );
   AIWarsCore::getSingletonPtr()->setGUISheet( sheet );

   CEGUI::Window *levelList = wmgr->getWindow( (CEGUI::utf8*)"Root/LevelList" );
   CEGUI::Window *start = wmgr->getWindow( (CEGUI::utf8*)"Root/Start" );
   start->subscribeEvent( CEGUI::PushButton::EventClicked,
      CEGUI::Event::Subscriber( &StateMainMenu::startGame, this ) );
   CEGUI::Window *back = wmgr->getWindow( (CEGUI::utf8*)"Root/Back" );
   back->subscribeEvent( CEGUI::PushButton::EventClicked,
      CEGUI::Event::Subscriber( &StateMainMenu::showMain, this ) );

   HANDLE fileHandle;
   WIN32_FIND_DATA wfd;
   CEGUI::ItemEntry *newItem;

   fileHandle = FindFirstFile( L"../assets/maps/*", & wfd );

   do {

      newItem = static_cast<CEGUI::ItemEntry*>( wmgr->createWindow( "TaharezLook/ListboxItem" ) );
      newItem->setText( (CEGUI::utf8*)wfd.cFileName );
      levelList->addChildWindow( newItem );

   } while( FindNextFile( fileHandle, &wfd ) );
   FindClose( fileHandle );

   return true;

}

when loading this level selection screen my app crashes and i've tracked the problem down to this line

Code: Select all

newItem = static_cast<CEGUI::ItemEntry*>( wmgr->createWindow( "TaharezLook/ListboxItem" ) );

with this cegui log

funny thing is there is no such file, not even that directory nor partition;
i noticed that there is no line like Creating falagard mapping for type 'TaharezLook/ListboxItem' using base type;
my guess is there should be one; i've checked all the resources from the sdk to be in the right place to get loaded which was my thist thought;
i dont understand whats going on here since everything else is working just fine;
plz help;

[CrazyEddie]

Based on the scheme file you're loading; "TaharezLookSkin.scheme" you're not loading the one from the SDK but rather the once that comes with Ogre, which is obviously missing this definition. Switch the scheme files over (and fix the filename) and you should be fine.

oh yes, thank you; i did not realize there is a mismatch in filenames and therefor just cnp over it; how embarrassing;

now i have a problem converting from wchar_t to cegui::string;
i'm using this method;
http://www.cegui.org.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=847&view=previous
except that i'm directly converting to cegui::string instead of std::string and cutting the string at the first occurence of . like this;

Code: Select all

CEGUI::String StateMainMenu::w2cs( wstring wstr ) {
   CEGUI::String str;
   int length;
   for( unsigned i=0; i<wstr.length(); i++ ) if( wstr[i] == L'.') length = i;
   char* c = new char[length+1];

   for( int i=0; i<length; i++ ) c[i] = wstr[i];
   str = c; str[length] = 0;

   return str;

}

Code: Select all

newItem->setText( w2cs( wfd.cFileName ) );

now the problem is i try to set the text of the listboxitem while debugging the text property of this window, in particular d_encodebuff tells me it is a bad ptr ( cxx0030: error: expression cannot be evaluated ); i looked up this error message and found out that this means i might dereference a null or unitialised pointer; however if i output the same string to a statictext window i get the filename concatenated by a lot of crap; besides the crap part at least its not null or unitialised; i tracked that error back to the str string in my conversion function; so i'm assuming that somehow this line

Code: Select all

str = c; str[length] = 0;

is fucking it up since c looks fine; thought this assignment should work out of the box; am i missing something ? besides that do i even have to set the last character to 0 in cegui::strings ?

[CrazyEddie]

The fact that 'd_encodebuff' may or may not be initialised should not worry you, that buffer is only used in certain circumstances and is created only as and when it is needed.

In the conversion function you do not null terminate the array 'c' which, I believe, is where the issue lies. Inserting a null into the CEGUI::String afterwards does not terminate the string, to do that you have to set the length of the string; a CEGUI::String can contain null characters (the same as std::string can).

thx a lot; no more strings filled with useless crap; in case anybody reading this - i just replaced this

Code: Select all

str = c; str[length] = 0;

with this;

Code: Select all

c[length] = 0; str = c;

the reason y those entries did not show up in the list only was that i took a listbox instead of a itemlistbox, silly me;
now everything works just fine;
