Interprocess communication overview
A client object represents the client side of a DDE conversation.
wxClient create
wxClient make-connection
wxClient on-make-connection
void ( create)
Creates a client object. You should override the on-make-connection handler to return an object of class derived from wxConnection, since various members of wxConnection must be overridden to intercept messages.
A connection is not made until make-connection is called.
wxConnection ( make-connection string host string service string topic)
Makes a connection to a server, returning an object of a user-defined derivative of wxConnection if successful.
host is ignored under Windows, and should contain a valid internet host name under X.
service is a DDE service identifier (under X should contain a socket identifier).
topic is a topic name for this connection.
wxConnection ( on-make-connection)
Should be overridden to return an object of the appropriate wxConnection class, whenever a connection is made. The base wxConnection class cannot be used because various members of wxConnection must be overridden in order to respond to messages from the server.
