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.

244/**
245 @class wxRendererNative
7c913512 246
bbc5b7f8 247 First, a brief introduction to wxRendererNative and why it is needed.
7c913512 248
23324ae1 249 Usually wxWidgets uses the underlying low level GUI system to draw all the
cdbcf4c2 250 controls - this is what we mean when we say that it is a "native" framework.
23324ae1
FM
251 However not all controls exist under all (or even any) platforms and in this
252 case wxWidgets provides a default, generic, implementation of them written in
253 wxWidgets itself.
7c913512 254
23324ae1
FM
255 These controls don't have the native appearance if only the standard
256 line drawing and other graphics primitives are used, because the native
257 appearance is different under different platforms while the lines are always
258 drawn in the same way.
7c913512 259
bbc5b7f8 260 This is why we have renderers: wxRendererNative is a class which virtualizes the
23324ae1
FM
261 drawing, i.e. it abstracts the drawing operations and allows you to draw say, a
262 button, without caring about exactly how this is done. Of course, as we
263 can draw the button differently in different renderers, this also allows us to
264 emulate the native look and feel.
7c913512 265
23324ae1
FM
266 So the renderers work by exposing a large set of high-level drawing functions
267 which are used by the generic controls. There is always a default global
7c913512 268 renderer but it may be changed or extended by the user, see
bbc5b7f8 269 @ref page_samples_render.
7c913512 270
23324ae1 271 All drawing functions take some standard parameters:
7c913512 272
bbc5b7f8 273 @li @a win - The window being drawn. It is normally not used and when
7c913512 274 it is it should only be used as a generic wxWindow
23324ae1
FM
275 (in order to get its low level handle, for example), but you should
276 not assume that it is of some given type as the same renderer
277 function may be reused for drawing different kinds of control.
bbc5b7f8 278 @li @a dc - The wxDC to draw on. Only this device
23324ae1
FM
279 context should be used for drawing. It is not necessary to restore
280 pens and brushes for it on function exit but, on the other hand, you
281 shouldn't assume that it is in any specific state on function entry:
282 the rendering functions should always prepare it.
bbc5b7f8
BP
283 @li @a rect - The bounding rectangle for the element to be drawn.
284 @li @a flags - The optional flags (none by default) which can be a
285 combination of the @ref wxCONTROL_FLAGS.
7c913512 286
23324ae1
FM
287 Note that each drawing function restores the wxDC attributes if
288 it changes them, so it is safe to assume that the same pen, brush and colours
289 that were active before the call to this function are still in effect after it.

545 The version has two components: the version itself and the age. If the main
546 program and the renderer have different versions they are never compatible with
547 each other because the version is only changed when an existing virtual
548 function is modified or removed. The age, on the other hand, is incremented
549 each time a new virtual method is added and so, at least for the compilers
550 using a common C++ object model, the calling program is compatible with any
551 renderer which has the age greater or equal to its age. This verification is
e54c96f1 552 done by IsCompatible() method.
