wxauinotebook get page to be closed

BlitzMax Forums/Brucey's Modules/wxauinotebook get page to be closed

Hi,
I wasn't able to find something via google so I hope someone has an idea here.

The thing is that my wxauinotebook has close buttons on every page. I connect towxEVT_COMMAND_AUINOTEBOOK_PAGE_CLOSE. It works so far. But how am I able to get the page to be closed from the event??? I tried every getter of the wxCommandEvent and none of 'em have any information about it. And the notebook itself neither.

I need this to ask the typical "are you sure you don't want to save before closing?" and to kill some references if the window is closed. I used the current selected window of the notebook for that but because I added wxAUI_NB_CLOSE_ON_ALL_TABS this is not effective anymore.

It should probably raise a wxAuiNotebookEvent, rather than a wxCommandEvent.
Looks like a recent class that wasn't in the original implementation.

I've added wxAuiNotebookEvent now.

From there, you should be able to query the event GetSelection(), which will return the index of the page to be closed.

Can't cast event emitted by wxEVT_COMMAND_AUINOTEBOOK_PAGE_CLOSE to wxAuiNotebookEvent.

Oh? I committed wxaui.mod changes, so it should work as expected. You will need to update your wx.mod, of course :-)

Sure I did. (and I rebuild the module as well ^^)
But the event is derived from a wxCommandEvent.
You can check it with the aui example.

Method CreateNotebook:wxAuiNotebook()
		'function called on closing a notebook page
		Function onNotebookClose(event:wxEvent)
			local evt:wxAuiNotebookEvent = wxAuiNotebookEvent(event)
			debuglog evt = null 'prints 1
		End Function
		
		' create the notebook off-window to avoid flicker
		Local width:Int, height:Int
		GetClientSize(width, height)

		Local ctrl:wxAuiNotebook = New wxAuiNotebook.Create(Self, wxID_ANY, width, height, 430, 200, notebookStyle)
		ctrl.connectany(wxEVT_COMMAND_AUINOTEBOOK_PAGE_CLOSE,onNotebookClose)
