\section{\class{wxTreeCtrl}}\label{wxtreectrl}

A tree control presents information as a hierarchy, with items that may be expanded
to show further items. Items in a tree control are referenced by wxTreeItemId handles.

To intercept events from a tree control, use the event table macros described in \helpref{wxTreeEvent}{wxtreeevent}.

\wxheading{Event handling}

To process input from a tree control, use these event handler macros to direct input to member
functions that take a \helpref{wxTreeEvent}{wxtreeevent} argument.

EVT\_TREE\_BEGIN\_LABEL\_EDIT event which can be vetoed so that no
text control will appear for in-place editing.

If the user changed the label (i.e. s/he does not press ESC or leave
the text control without changes, a EVT\_TREE\_END\_LABEL\_EDIT event 
will be sent which can be vetoed as well.

Retrieves the rectangle bounding the {\it item}. If {\it textOnly} is TRUE,
only the rectangle around the items label will be returned, otherwise the
items image is also taken into account.

The return value is TRUE if the rectangle was successfully retrieved or FALSE
if it was not (in this case {\it rect} is not changed) - for example, if the
item is currently invisible.

\membersection{wxTreeCtrl::GetChildrenCount}\label{wxtreectrlgetchildrencount}

\constfunc{size\_t}{GetChildrenCount}{\param{const wxTreeItemId\&}{ item}, \param{bool}{ recursively = TRUE}}

For this enumeration function you must pass in a `cookie' parameter
which is opaque for the application but is necessary for the library
to make these functions reentrant (i.e. allow more than one
enumeration on one and the same object simultaneously). The cookie passed to
GetFirstChild and GetNextChild should be the same.

Returns an invalid tree item if there are no further children.

\func{void}{Unselect}{\void}

Removes the selection from the currently selected item (if any).

\section{\class{wxTreeItemData}}\label{wxtreeitemdata}

wxTreeItemData is some (arbitrary) user class associated with some item. The
main advantage of having this class (compared to the old untyped interface) is
that wxTreeItemData's are destroyed automatically by the tree and, as this
class has virtual dtor, it means that the memory will be automatically
freed. We don't just use wxObject instead of wxTreeItemData because
the size of this class is critical: in any real application, each tree leaf
will have wxTreeItemData associated with it and number of leaves may be
quite big.

Because the objects of this class are deleted by the tree, they should
always be allocated on the heap.
