Hello everyone. I’m a novice to the JUCE library and have a bit of C++ experience (I work as a C# developer professionally).
I have been trying to get a Label to display in a custom window and I can’t seem to figure it out. Basically I’ve created a new DocumentWindow and a new content Component for it, and then called setContentComponent in the window’s constructor. The window will display, but I don’t see the label.
Below is my code for the content component and the window. In the application’s initialise() method I call setVisible(true) on the the window object. I must be doing something odd as I would think something so simple should have worked. Could anyone offer any advice to me?
Thanks,
Ryan

class LoggerContentComp : public Component
{
public:
//==============================================================================
LoggerContentComp (LoggerWindow* loggerWindow_)
: loggerWindow (loggerWindow_)
{
Logger::outputDebugString(T(“Creating LoggerContentComp”));
//invokeDirectly (showRendering, true);
Label* m_textLabel = new Label(T(“lblLogOutput”), T(“HELLO!”));
addAndMakeVisible(m_textLabel, 5);//, <#int zOrder#>)
}
~LoggerContentComp()
{
deleteAllChildren();
}
void resized()
{
}
private:
LoggerWindow* loggerWindow;
//Label* m_textLabel;
};
// and in your cpp…
LoggerWindow::LoggerWindow()
: DocumentWindow (“SoundSlice Log”,
Colours::grey,
DocumentWindow::allButtons,

{
LoggerContentComp* loggerContent = new LoggerContentComp(this);
setResizable (true, false);
setResizeLimits (400, 300, 8192, 8192);
setContentComponent (loggerContent);//, true, false);
Logger::outputDebugString(T(“Creating LoggerWindow”));
//centreWithSize (getWidth(), getHeight());
//setVisible (true);
//set up label
//m_textLabel = new Label(T(""));
//addAndMakeVisible(m_textLabel);//, <#int zOrder#>)
}
void LoggerWindow::SetLogger(TextLogger* logger)
{
m_logger = logger;
}
TextLogger* LoggerWindow::GetLogger()
{
Logger::outputDebugString(T(“GetLogger”));
if(m_logger)
Logger::outputDebugString(T(“found logger”));
return m_logger;
}
LoggerWindow::~LoggerWindow()
{
//deleteAllChildren();
setContentComponent (0, true);
}
void LoggerWindow::closeButtonPressed()
{
// The correct thing to do when you want the app to quit is to call the
// JUCEApplication::systemRequestedQuit() method.
// That means that requests to quit that come from your own UI, or from other
// OS-specific sources (e.g. the dock menu on the mac) all get handled in the
// same way.
