wxruby users - Nov 2007 - XRCise says "Cannot create wrapper for subclass of wxWizard"

I have created a very simple DialogBlocks project that
consists of a very simple wxWizard. I have exported the
project to XRC and am trying to get XRCise to process it.
XRCise produces the message "Cannot create wrapper for
subclass of wxWizard".

Is this a symptom of the XPath parsing in Ruby 1.8.6 bug?
Or am I doing something wrong?

My env:
ruby 1.8.6 (2007-03-13 patchlevel 0) [i386-mswin32]
wxruby-1.9.2-i386-mswin32
wx_sugar 0.1.19
Windows XP Professional 5.1.2600

My XRC file:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<resource version="2.3.0.1"
xmlns="http://www.wxwidgets.org/wxxrc">
    <object class="wxWizard" name="ID_MEWIZARD"
subclass="MeWizard">

        <exstyle>wxWIZARD_EX_HELPBUTTON</exstyle>

        <object class="wxWizardPageSimple"

                <object class="sizeritem">
                    <flag>wxGROW|wxALL</flag>
                    <border>5</border>
                    <object class="wxStaticText"
name="wxID_STATIC">
                        <label>This is some static text.</label>
                    </object>
                </object>
            </object>
        </object>
    </object>
</resource>

Thanks for the report. It''s because I don''t know how to load a
Wizard
from XRC - currently only Dialog, Panel and Frame are supported.

There are lots of methods in the XmlResource API like load_frame, 
load_panel etc, but not one it seems for wizards. Using load_dialog 
doesn''t work although Wizard is technically a subclass of Wx::Dialog.

I will have a further look into this, but if anyone knows how to load a 
Wizard in C++ wxWidgets, that would help...

cheers

Hi Peralta,

I use wxFormBuilder v3.0 and had the same error message.
But I found the solution.
For the topmost element "MyFrame1:Frame" in the object tree I can set 
the value of a parameter "subclass".
By default the value is ";" (probably for C++ use), and when I change
it
to something like "blabla", it works.

Cheers,
pink-ink

Hello Herman,

I also use wxFormBuilder myself, and I ran into the same problem with it.  I
found this less annoying, as I just put in the class I plan to implement all
my methods and such onto the Object in question, and this allows for
everything to work when utilizing xrcise.  It actually makes it a bit
simpler to keep track of what object is what.  Heh.

L8ers,

Mario Steele

Thanks for the helpful hint.  I had just run into this with the current 
RC of wxFormBuilder 3.0.

Setting the subclass value to any valid text solves the error message.
