2
3wxHelpProvider is an abstract class used by a program implementing context-sensitive help to
4show the help text for the given window.
5
6The current help provider must be explicitly set by the application using
7wxHelpProvider::Set().

29
30Virtual destructor for any base class.

33\membersection{wxHelpProvider::AddHelp}\label{wxhelpprovideraddhelp}
34
35\func{void}{AddHelp}{\param{wxWindowBase* }{window}, \param{const wxString\& }{text}}
36
37Associates the text with the given window or id. Although all help
38providers have these functions to allow making \helpref{wxWindow::SetHelpText}{wxwindowsethelptext}
39work, not all of them implement the functions.

41
42\membersection{wxHelpProvider::Get}\label{wxhelpproviderget}
43
44\func{wxHelpProvider*}{Get}{\void}
45
46Unlike some other classes, the help provider is not created on demand.
47This must be explicitly done by the application.
48
49
50\membersection{wxHelpProvider::GetHelp}\label{wxhelpprovidergethelp}
51
52\func{wxString}{GetHelp}{\param{const wxWindowBase* }{window}}
53
54Gets the help string for this window. Its interpretation is dependent on the help provider
55except that empty string always means that no help is associated with
56the window.
57
58\func{void}{AddHelp}{\param{wxWindowID }{id}, \param{const wxString\& }{text}}
59
60This version associates the given text with all windows with this id.
61May be used to set the same help string for all Cancel buttons in
62the application, for example.
63
64
65\membersection{wxHelpProvider::RemoveHelp}\label{wxhelpproviderremovehelp}
66
67\func{void}{RemoveHelp}{\param{wxWindowBase* }{window}}
68
69Removes the association between the window pointer and the help text. This is
70called by the wxWindow destructor. Without this, the table of help strings will fill up
71and when window pointers are reused, the wrong help string will be found.
72
73
74\membersection{wxHelpProvider::Set}\label{wxhelpproviderset}
75
76\func{wxHelpProvider*}{Set}{\param{wxHelpProvider* }{helpProvider}}
77
78Get/set the current, application-wide help provider. Returns
79the previous one.

81
82\membersection{wxHelpProvider::ShowHelpAtPoint}\label{wxhelpprovidershowhelpatpoint}
83
84\func{bool}{ShowHelpAtPoint}{\param{wxWindowBase* }{window}, \param{const wxPoint & }{point}, \param{wxHelpEvent::Origin }{origin}}
85
86This function may be overridden to show help for the window when it should
87depend on the position inside the window, By default this method forwards to
88\helpref{ShowHelp}{wxhelpprovidershowhelp}, so it is enough to only implement
89the latter if the help doesn't depend on the position.
90
91Returns \true if help was shown, or \false if no help was available for this
92window.
93
94\wxheading{Parameters}
95
96\docparam{window}{Window to show help text for.}
97
98\docparam{point}{Coordinates of the mouse at the moment of help event emission.}
99
100\docparam{origin}{Help event origin, see \helpref{wxHelpEvent::GetOrigin}{wxhelpeventgetorigin}.}

105\membersection{wxHelpProvider::ShowHelp}\label{wxhelpprovidershowhelp}
106
107\func{bool}{ShowHelp}{\param{wxWindowBase* }{window}}
108
109Shows help for the given window. Override this function if the help doesn't
110depend on the exact position inside the window, otherwise you need to override
111\helpref{ShowHelpAtPoint}{wxhelpprovidershowhelpatpoint}.
112
113Returns \true if help was shown, or \false if no help was available for this
114window.
