editing a wxGrid

hi-

i worked on a project in TCL/TK found at j_m_mc.tripod.c om. I want to
allow the user to edit the table using wxGrid and python.

I'm just looking for some tips. For i.e. in sqlite and TCL most data is
represented as a string. When do data types become an issue in this
instance? If I allow the user to edit directly in a cell it seems it
doesnt really matter because you can only enforce data validation if i
use a form anyways as far as the data types go. I mean with sqlite the
primary reason for using data types is in case i want to ever switch
dbs. I cant remember off the top of my head but I think access or
paradox would complain if you used a string for instance in a date
field. So without some checking be in forced maybe it is not a good
idea to directly allow editing in the table anyways.

Is a better way stepping through or searching the array that populates
the TkTable query result and tying it to a form that validates somehow?

bottom line...i'm looking to extend my program a little and wondered
if anything along these lines is feasible.

thanks,
marvin

Hello. I am working on an XML editor that will not display the xml file as plain text, but will rather work with a combination of a tree view for the main element nodes and some kind of tabular view to view attributes. By this way, the user (i.e. me) will only have the opportunity to change textual contents and attribute values, but neither element nor attribute names. Building the tree view was not a problem, but I haven´t found a good...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
