CheckBox problem

[ent1ty]

I'm having a problem with ->isChecked method of this class. My game crashes when doing this

Code: Select all

bool enableDynamicShadows= set_dyns->isChecked();

Is somehing wrong with it?

Looks like a null pointer exception.
Do something like this:

Code: Select all

bool enableDynamicShadows = false;
if (set_dyns)
	enableDynamicShadows= set_dyns->isChecked();
else
	printf("OMG my pointer is invalid!\n");

And watch the console for that message.

The pointer is good, set_dyns->setChecked() etc. runs fine. Only isChecked() doesn't work.

Are you sure the crash happens in that line? What does the debugger tell?

[ent1ty]

Yes, it happens at that line. Debuger: Unhandled exception at 0x00406434 in game.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000000.

Yes, it happens at that line. Debuger: Unhandled exception at 0x00406434 in game.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000000.

It seems to be a null pointer

Could it be the problem that IGUICheckBox* set_dyns= 0; is global but set_dyns= env->addCheckBox() is inside of a function and isChecked in another function? [/code]

OK, so I fixed this. But I have one more question: defaultly, when I click X in the top right corner, the window is destroyed. How can i change this to only set the window invisible?

You can catch EGET_ELEMENT_CLOSED for the window, call setVisible(false) on the window and then return true in the event-receiver to prevent the event from being passed on.

I already solved it with window->getCloseButton()->setVisible(false); and then making my own "close"(make invisible) button. But that is also a good idea, thanks.
