Event Handlers Not Getting Called? - wxWidgets & C++
- by Alex
Hello all,
I'm working on a program for my C++ programming class, using wxWidgets. I'm having a huge problem in that my event handlers (I assume) are not getting called, because when I click on the button to trigger the event, nothing happens. My question is: Can you help me find the problem and explain why they would not be getting called?
The event handlers OnAbout and OnQuit are working, just not OnCompute or OnClear. I'm really frustrated as I can't figure this out. Thanks a bunch in advance!

// Params - wxWindow pointer
// no return type
// pre-conditions: none

MainPanel(wxWindow* parent);
// OnCompute is the event handler for the Compute button
// params - none
// preconditions - none
// postconditions - tasks will have been carried otu successfully
// returns void
void OnCompute(wxCommandEvent& WXUNUSED(event));
// OnClear is the event handler for the Clear button
// params - none
// preconditions - none
// postconditions - all text areas will be cleared of data
// returns void
void OnClear(wxCommandEvent& WXUNUSED(event));
// Destructor for panel class
