wxWidgets implements picture and file buttons

In wxWidgets, it seems that it is not easy to implement the buttons for image + file through their own controls. But it can be used to draw the picture + file button by overloading wxControl. The following is the packaged button class:

#ifndef _BITMAP_BUTTON_EX_H
#define _BITMAP_BUTTON_EX_H
 
#include "wx/"
 
enum eBitmapButtonStatus
{
 BitmapButtonNormal,
 BitmapButtonEnter,
 BitmapButtonDown,
 BitmapButtonUp,
 BitmapButtonLeave,
 BitmapButtonDClick,
 BitmapButtonDisable
};
 
class wxBitmapButtonEx : public wxControl
{

public:
 wxBitmapButtonEx();
 virtual ~wxBitmapButtonEx();
 
 wxBitmapButtonEx(wxWindow* parent, wxWindowID id,
   const wxPoint& pos = wxDefaultPosition,
   const wxSize& size = wxDefaultSize,
   long style = wxBORDER_NONE,
   const wxValidator& validator = wxDefaultValidator);
 bool Create(wxWindow* parent, wxWindowID id,
   const wxPoint& pos = wxDefaultPosition,
   const wxSize& size = wxDefaultSize,
   long style = wxSUNKEN_BORDER,
   const wxValidator& validator = wxDefaultValidator);

 virtual bool Enable(bool enable = true);
 virtual bool Disable();
 
 //Set normal pictures wxBitmapButtonEx* set_normal_bitmap(wxBitmap* bitmap);
 
 //Set the switch picture when the button is pressed wxBitmapButtonEx* set_down_bitmap(wxBitmap* bitmap);
 
 //Set the switch picture when the button is pressed by the past wxBitmapButtonEx* set_enter_bitmap(wxBitmap* bitmap);
 
 //Set Disable pictures. wxBitmapButtonEx* set_disable_bitmap(wxBitmap* bitmap);
