7c913512 12
bf84f3e2

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 156 @class wxItemContainer
bf84f3e2
VS
157
158 This class is an abstract base class for some wxWidgets controls which
159 contain several items such as wxListBox, wxCheckListBox, wxComboBox or
160 wxChoice. It defines an interface which is implemented by all controls
161 which have string subitems each of which may be selected.
23324ae1 162
bf84f3e2
VS
163 wxItemContainer extends wxItemContainerImmutable interface with methods
164 for adding/removing items.
165
166 It defines the methods for accessing the controls items and although each
167 of the derived classes implements them differently, they still all conform
168 to the same interface.
169
170 The items in a wxItemContainer have (non-empty) string labels and,
171 optionally, client data associated with them. Client data may be of two
172 different kinds: either simple untyped (@c void *) pointers which are
173 simply stored by the control but not used in any way by it, or typed
174 pointers (wxClientData*) which are owned by the control meaning that the
175 typed client data (and only it) will be deleted when an item is deleted
dc215c81
BP
176 using Delete() or the entire control is cleared using Clear(), which also
177 happens when it is destroyed.
bf84f3e2
VS
178
179 Finally note that in the same control all items must have client data of
180 the same type (typed or untyped), if any. This type is determined by the
dc215c81
BP
181 first call to Append() (the version with client data pointer) or
182 SetClientData().
bf84f3e2
VS
183
184 Note that this is not a control, it's a mixin interface that classes
185 have to derive from in addition to wxControl or wxWindow. Convenience
186 class wxControlWithItems is provided for this purpose.
