9wxWindow is the base class for all windows. Any
10children of the window will be deleted automatically by the destructor
11before the window itself is deleted.<P>

406<P>
407<B>virtual bool</B> <B>Close</B>(<B>const bool</B><I> force = FALSE</I>)<P>
408The purpose of this call is to provide a safer way of destroying a window than using
409the <I>delete</I> operator.<P>
410<B><FONT COLOR="#FF0000">Parameters</FONT></B><P>
411<I>force</I><UL><UL>
412FALSE if the window's close handler should be able to veto the destruction
413of this window, TRUE if it cannot.</UL></UL>
414<P>
415<B><FONT COLOR="#FF0000">Remarks</FONT></B><P>
416Close calls the <A HREF="wx45.htm#wxcloseevent">close handler</A> for the window, providing an opportunity for the window to
417choose whether to destroy the window.<P>
418The close handler should check whether the window is being deleted forcibly,
419using <A HREF="wx45.htm#wxcloseeventgetforce">wxCloseEvent::GetForce</A>, in which case it should
420destroy the window using <A HREF="wx260.htm#wxwindowdestroy">wxWindow::Destroy</A>.<P>
421Applies to managed windows (wxFrame and wxDialog classes) only.<P>
422<I>Note</I> that calling Close does not guarantee that the window will be destroyed; but it
423provides a way to simulate a manual close of a window, which may or may not be implemented by
424destroying the window. The default implementation of wxDialog::OnCloseWindow does not
425necessarily delete the dialog, since it will simply simulate an wxID_CANCEL event which
426itself only hides the dialog.<P>
427To guarantee that the window will be destroyed, call <A HREF="wx260.htm#wxwindowdestroy">wxWindow::Destroy</A> instead.<P>

1372called via the <A HREF="wx260.htm#wxwindowclose">wxWindow::Close</A> function, so
1373that the application can also invoke the handler programmatically.<P>
1374Use the EVT_CLOSE event table macro to handle close events.<P>
1375You should check whether the application is forcing the deletion of the window
1376using <A HREF="wx45.htm#wxcloseeventgetforce">wxCloseEvent::GetForce</A>. If this is TRUE,
1377destroy the window using <A HREF="wx260.htm#wxwindowdestroy">wxWindow::Destroy</A>.
1378If not, it is up to you whether you respond by destroying the window.<P>
1379(Note: GetForce is now superceded by CanVeto. So to test whether forced destruction of
1380the window is required, test for the negative of CanVeto. If CanVeto returns FALSE,
1381it is not possible to skip window deletion.)<P>
1382If you don't destroy the window, you should call <A HREF="wx45.htm#wxcloseeventveto">wxCloseEvent::Veto</A> to
1383let the calling code know that you did not destroy the window. This allows the <A HREF="wx260.htm#wxwindowclose">wxWindow::Close</A> function
1384to return TRUE or FALSE depending on whether the close instruction was honoured or not.<P>

1386The <A HREF="wx260.htm#wxwindowonclose">wxWindow::OnClose</A> virtual function remains
1387for backward compatibility with earlier versions of wxWindows. The

2219Let's say you wish to display 50 lines of text, using the same font.
2220The window is sized so that you can only see 16 lines at a time.<P>
2221You would use:<P>
2222<FONT SIZE=2><PRE>
2223 SetScrollbar(wxVERTICAL, 0, 16, 50);
2224</PRE>
2225</FONT><P>
2226Note that with the window at this size, the thumb position can never go
2227above 50 minus 16, or 34.<P>
2228You can determine how many lines are currently visible by dividing the current view
2229size by the character height in pixels.<P>
2230When defining your own scrollbar behaviour, you will always need to recalculate
2231the scrollbar settings when the window size changes. You could therefore put your
2232scrollbar calculations and SetScrollbar
2233call into a function named AdjustScrollbars, which can be called initially and also
2234from your <A HREF="wx260.htm#wxwindowonsize">wxWindow::OnSize</A> event handler function.<P>
