13 wxItemContainer defines an interface which is implemented by all controls
14 which have string subitems each of which may be selected.
7c913512 15
bf84f3e2
VS
16 It is decomposed in wxItemContainerImmutable which omits all methods
17 adding/removing items and is used by wxRadioBox and wxItemContainer itself.
7c913512 18
bf84f3e2
VS
19 Note that this is not a control, it's a mixin interface that classes
20 have to derive from in addition to wxControl or wxWindow.
21
22 Examples: wxListBox, wxCheckListBox, wxChoice and wxComboBox (which
23 implements an extended interface deriving from this one)

dc215c81 161 @class wxItemContainer
bf84f3e2
VS
162
163 This class is an abstract base class for some wxWidgets controls which
164 contain several items such as wxListBox, wxCheckListBox, wxComboBox or
165 wxChoice. It defines an interface which is implemented by all controls
166 which have string subitems each of which may be selected.
23324ae1 167
bf84f3e2
VS
168 wxItemContainer extends wxItemContainerImmutable interface with methods
169 for adding/removing items.
170
171 It defines the methods for accessing the controls items and although each
172 of the derived classes implements them differently, they still all conform
173 to the same interface.
174
175 The items in a wxItemContainer have (non-empty) string labels and,
176 optionally, client data associated with them. Client data may be of two
177 different kinds: either simple untyped (@c void *) pointers which are
178 simply stored by the control but not used in any way by it, or typed
179 pointers (wxClientData*) which are owned by the control meaning that the
180 typed client data (and only it) will be deleted when an item is deleted
dc215c81
BP
181 using Delete() or the entire control is cleared using Clear(), which also
182 happens when it is destroyed.
bf84f3e2
VS
183
184 Finally note that in the same control all items must have client data of
185 the same type (typed or untyped), if any. This type is determined by the
dc215c81
BP
186 first call to Append() (the version with client data pointer) or
187 SetClientData().
bf84f3e2
VS
188
189 Note that this is not a control, it's a mixin interface that classes
190 have to derive from in addition to wxControl or wxWindow. Convenience
191 class wxControlWithItems is provided for this purpose.
