visual c++ - Create resource from existing .ico icon -
i have icon in .ico format. want add resource in vc++ project. want set main icon using wxwidgets.
i right click resources, , choices existing item , new item. if select new item , .ico, brings bitmap editor. can't right. select "existing item" , put foo.ico resources. following fails:
wxframe::seticon(wxicon(foo));
i have tried various decorations, foo.ico , wxbitmap_type_ico_resource, yada yada, have yet strike perfect combination.
edit: found on net says need create new resource , add foo.ico that. tried following instructions, no joy.
i managed it, there must better way.
i copied resource file, namely sample.rc, wxwidgets samples. edited in text editor, replacing icon name foo.ico in couple of places. commented-out #include referred wxwidget project directory. in visual studio, added file resources. in myframe constructor in program, wrote,
seticon(wxicon(sample));
very hackish, worked.
