Big C++: Chptr. 27 -- Graphical User Interfaces

27.10 Case Study: A GUI for the Clock Game

The final example is a wxWindows version of the clock game of Chapter 13.
Because of the event-driven nature of GUI programming, several modifications had to be made to the program logic.
In this program, each guess is communicated to the program in the handler of the "Guess" button.
A data field tries has been added to keep track of whether the guess is a first or second guess.
The user selects menu options that lead to dialog boxes to enter the user name and choose level.
Now the user can change level at any time during the game.
To simplify compilation, the nonstandard Point and Time classes have been eliminated from the program.
