 1. Want to have a performance meter on my frame... :o#2407 Posted by: 2003-07-25 00:19:20 |
Hello
For my wx application I need to have a component of type Performance Meter like in Windows (when you do Alt+Ctrl+Del there is a widget that shows the CPU activity).
What is the best way to do it with wxWindows? Is there an existing widget for it that could display my own values?
Thanks for your help! |

Maybe have a look at wxGauge for a progressbar.
Check out wxPlot (should be in the contrib dir) for plotting a graph. I used wxPlot and I guess for what you are trying you should think about modifying it.

| Thanks, I will have a look ! I did not know this component. Anyway I thought about using the wxGauge widgets and displaying them on a canvas perhaps but it is a bit tricky no? |

Using and displaying a wxGauge is just as hard as displaying any other wx widget :)
wxPlot may be a bit harder to use, because as far as I remember it uses an array of values to display stuff, so you would have to gather information first, then display it.

| I found nothing about wxPlot but on wxPlotWindow and wxPlotCurve. I think they are the right components. I will try with it and I hope it matches what I need because I want to refresh the data too, i.e. displaying new values in real-time. |

Yep, these are the components I mentioned. The window is for displaying the data, while the curve actually stores the data of one curve.
Problem with that is, that normally it should be used for static data, meaning you should gather up the needed values, store them and create a curve from it.
But it can also work realtime. I used it once when I made a little simulation showing two populations (one hunting and eating the other). The user can bring up a little window showing the current stats of both populations which get actualized with a step of 10 generarion cycles.
I guess it might be a good idea not to make the update cycle too small. I allways wanted to update the plotting code a bit, so one could change colours and use it as a real realtime window.... But time is running out at the moment. ;)
Maybe I'll upload the source for my app someday, when I find the time to *beautify* it.

thanks. And if you have time to beautify it it would be nice ;)
Moreover I wanted to try the demo of wxPlot (http://www.wxwindows.org/technote/plotting.htm) but I have errors on Linking. Something must failed, a library or I don't know what. If somebody can help, thanks in advance! |

There should be a sample for plotting in the contrib dir (something like WXDIR/contrib/samples/wxPlot).
After compiling the wxPlot lib try to compile this one (using the same options you used for the lib like FINAL=1). If this does the job, link to this lib in your other project.
I noticed that sometimes the order of libs makes a difference. Try linking to wxmsw first, then wxPlot.

9. Problem with plot demo at linking #2426 Posted by: 2003-07-31 20:27:37 |
thanks for helping me, but in contrib I have just:
WXDIRcontribsamplesplot.cpp
This file does not launch an application and there is no workspace or project defined for it. (I am working with Visual Studio on windows, with wxWindows 2.4.1). So I see no way to compile a lib for wxPlot.
Anyway I don't say that compiling a lib for wxPlot is needed, I just tell that compiling the demo for wxPlot generates errors at linking and perhaps something is missing or the project settings are not correct.
I really need to make this demo runs !!
thanks for any help... |

Weird...
I got a dsp, dsw and VC makfile in my WX/contrib/src/plot and WX/contrib/samples/plot. Both compiled just fine and work...

| I have installed wxWindows 2.2.9 and the directory "plot" is included in the samples !! it was not the case for the 2.4.1, too bad, I don't know why. should works now, thanks! |
