where to set class permission in wxCrafter

Post by coder99 »

Where can I set the permission of a class variable in wxCrafter?
wxFB provides a drop-down box with none, private, protected & public.
Is there anything equivalent in wxCrafter or is this 'omission' by design?

You can't do that on wxC.
Accessing a members directly and not through a getter/setters is bad design.
However, all members are declared as protected so you can access them in the subclass

In wxC 1.4 there will be an option to generate setters/getters for these members

OK, I've read some objections to making the variables public and I have read counterarguments :-)
Using getters/setters, to me seems like installing a lock on the front door and then hanging the key to the lock next to it :?
and it would seem like a lot more work to implement.
Not that one could not also add one's own setters/getters

In any case, if you do so, please provide an option to _not_ make these setters/getters inline code - at least for the debug version.
MSVC IDE does not seem like to trace through in-line code

Just downloaded version 1.6 and this issue of accessors etc still bothers me.

In one of your previous replies you mentioned that as of version 1.4 there would be a way to create getters and setters, but I have never been able to figure out how or where in either version 1.5 or the latest, 1.6

Is this feature not implemented yet, or have I simply not found it yet?

Note implemented yet. Hopefully, I will be able to implement it soon.
As usual, requests on the forum tends to get lost... you need to file them on GitHub

Thank you, Eran
posted the issue on Github, under codelite - does wxCrafter have its own section?

It has a private tracker for users who paid for it ;)
But you can post on GitHub as well, no problem

Thank you.
I wasn't sure which one to use - will remember to use Mantis instead

Got your post announcing that setters/getters are implemented on github.
Not being familiar - yet - with the finer points of github, does this mean that
a new version can be downloaded from github?
And if yes, could you please advise me how to do so?
TIA

wxCrafter is not open sourced. So you can't really find it on GitHub.
It will available in the next release (which should not take too long now)
