Hi all,
Please excuse another newbie question.
I'm looking at storing an enum as user data in an Fl_Menu_Item user data. In
the callback, I want to access the enum.
I know that I can put the enum into user data as a string:
enum eop { task0=200, task2, task3};
Fl_Menu_Item menu = {
{ "thing 1", 0, mycallback, (void*)"201"} .... }
void mycallback(widget* w, void* v)
{ ....
eop e = (eop) (atoi((char*)v));
...
}
but that seems a little cumbersome and inflexable.
I notice that old examples used
int i = (int)v;
but that won't work with gcc-4.4.5
I tried subclassing Fl_Menu_Item, but couldn't get it to work.
Is there a better way?
Will fltk-3 provide more flexibility?
Should this be covered in a tutorial? I couldn't find anything in search....
which surprised me. It seems like it should be covered somewhere for newbies.
Thanks,
Marty
