145
146 wxDelegateRendererNative allows reuse of renderers code by forwarding all the
191e43fd
FM
147 wxRendererNative methods to the given object and
148 thus allowing you to only modify some of its methods -- without having to
149 reimplement all of them.
7c913512 150
cdbcf4c2 151 Note that the "normal", inheritance-based approach, doesn't work with the
23324ae1
FM
152 renderers as it is impossible to derive from a class unknown at compile-time
153 and the renderer is only chosen at run-time. So suppose that you want to only
154 add something to the drawing of the tree control buttons but leave all the
155 other methods unchanged -- the only way to do it, considering that the renderer
156 class which you want to customize might not even be written yet when you write
157 your code (it could be written later and loaded from a DLL during run-time), is
158 by using this class.
7c913512
FM
159
160 Except for the constructor, it has exactly the same methods as
191e43fd
FM
161 wxRendererNative and their implementation is
162 trivial: they are simply forwarded to the real renderer. Note that the "real"
163 renderer may, in turn, be a wxDelegateRendererNative as well and that there may
164 be arbitrarily many levels like this -- but at the end of the chain there must
165 be a real renderer which does the drawing.

246/**
247 @class wxRendererNative
7c913512 248
bbc5b7f8 249 First, a brief introduction to wxRendererNative and why it is needed.
7c913512 250
23324ae1 251 Usually wxWidgets uses the underlying low level GUI system to draw all the
cdbcf4c2 252 controls - this is what we mean when we say that it is a "native" framework.
23324ae1
FM
253 However not all controls exist under all (or even any) platforms and in this
254 case wxWidgets provides a default, generic, implementation of them written in
255 wxWidgets itself.
7c913512 256
23324ae1
FM
257 These controls don't have the native appearance if only the standard
258 line drawing and other graphics primitives are used, because the native
259 appearance is different under different platforms while the lines are always
260 drawn in the same way.
7c913512 261
bbc5b7f8 262 This is why we have renderers: wxRendererNative is a class which virtualizes the
23324ae1
FM
263 drawing, i.e. it abstracts the drawing operations and allows you to draw say, a
264 button, without caring about exactly how this is done. Of course, as we
265 can draw the button differently in different renderers, this also allows us to
266 emulate the native look and feel.
7c913512 267
23324ae1
FM
268 So the renderers work by exposing a large set of high-level drawing functions
269 which are used by the generic controls. There is always a default global
7c913512 270 renderer but it may be changed or extended by the user, see
bbc5b7f8 271 @ref page_samples_render.
7c913512 272
23324ae1 273 All drawing functions take some standard parameters:
7c913512 274
bbc5b7f8 275 @li @a win - The window being drawn. It is normally not used and when
7c913512 276 it is it should only be used as a generic wxWindow
23324ae1
FM
277 (in order to get its low level handle, for example), but you should
278 not assume that it is of some given type as the same renderer
279 function may be reused for drawing different kinds of control.
bbc5b7f8 280 @li @a dc - The wxDC to draw on. Only this device
23324ae1
FM
281 context should be used for drawing. It is not necessary to restore
282 pens and brushes for it on function exit but, on the other hand, you
283 shouldn't assume that it is in any specific state on function entry:
284 the rendering functions should always prepare it.
bbc5b7f8
BP
285 @li @a rect - The bounding rectangle for the element to be drawn.
286 @li @a flags - The optional flags (none by default) which can be a
287 combination of the @ref wxCONTROL_FLAGS.
7c913512 288
23324ae1
FM
289 Note that each drawing function restores the wxDC attributes if
290 it changes them, so it is safe to assume that the same pen, brush and colours
291 that were active before the call to this function are still in effect after it.

555 The version has two components: the version itself and the age. If the main

557 each other because the version is only changed when an existing virtual
558 function is modified or removed. The age, on the other hand, is incremented
559 each time a new virtual method is added and so, at least for the compilers
560 using a common C++ object model, the calling program is compatible with any
561 renderer which has the age greater or equal to its age. This verification is
