Hey guys,
Is it possible to call native windows calls inside wxwidgets?

I'm trying to restrict the mouse cursor to my application. Ive tried the
following code

RECT rcClip;

wxPoint point = GetPosition();
wxSize size = GetSize();

rcClip.top = (long)point.x;
rcClip.left = (long)point.y;
rcClip.bottom = (long)(point.x + size.GetWidth());
rcClip.right = (long)(point.y + size.GetHeight());

ClipCursor(&rcClip);

But its having no affect on my program.

I'm managed to use com object for text to speech with wxwidgets so I
presumed this would work.
Has anyone done it before?

Any information very much appreciated.

Just spotted the maths were slightly out, fixed now but still not locking
the mouse into the frame


rcClip.left = (long)(point.x);
rcClip.top = (long)(point.y);
rcClip.bottom = (long)((point.y) + size.GetHeight());
rcClip.right = (long)((point.x) + size.GetWidth());
