98 e.g. a wxPaintEvent in your code and sending it to e.g. a wxTextCtrl
99 will not usually affect it at all as native controls have no specific
100 knowledge about wxWidgets events. However you may construct objects of
101 specific types and pass them to wxEvtHandler::ProcessEvent() if you
102 want to create your own custom control and want to process its events

383 /**
384 Queue event for a later processing.
385
386 This method is similar to ProcessEvent() but while the latter is
387 synchronous, i.e. the event is processed immediately, before the
388 function returns, this one is asynchronous and returns immediately
389 while the event will be processed at some later time (usually during
390 the next event loop iteration).
391
392 Another important difference is that this method takes ownership of the
393 @a event parameter, i.e. it will delete it itself. This implies that
394 the event should be allocated on the heap and that the pointer can't be
395 used any more after the function returns (as it can be deleted at any
396 moment).
397
398 QueueEvent() can be used for inter-thread communication from the worker
399 threads to the main thread, it is safe in the sense that it uses
400 locking internally and avoids the problem mentioned in AddPendingEvent()
401 documentation by ensuring that the @a event object is not used by the
402 calling thread any more. Care should still be taken to avoid that some
403 fields of this object are used by it, notably any wxString members of
404 the event object must not be shallow copies of another wxString object
405 as this would result in them still using the same string buffer behind
406 the scenes. For example:
407 @code
408 void FunctionInAWorkerThread(const wxString& str)
409 {
410 wxCommandEvent* evt = new wxCommandEvent;
411
412 // NOT evt->SetString(str) as this would be a shallow copy
413 evt->SetString(str.c_str()); // make a deep copy
414
415 wxTheApp->QueueEvent( evt );
416 }
417 @endcode
418
419 Note that you can use wxThreadEvent instead of wxCommandEvent
420 to avoid this problem:
421 @code
422 void FunctionInAWorkerThread(const wxString& str)
423 {
424 wxThreadEvent evt;
425 evt->SetString(str);
426
427 // wxThreadEvent::Clone() makes sure that the internal wxString
428 // member is not shared by other wxString instances:
429 wxTheApp->QueueEvent( evt.Clone() );
430 }
431 @endcode
432
433 Finally notice that this method automatically wakes up the event loop
434 if it is currently idle by calling ::wxWakeUpIdle() so there is no need
435 to do it manually when using it.

447
448 This function is similar to QueueEvent() but can't be used to post
449 events from worker threads for the event objects with wxString fields
450 (i.e. in practice most of them) because of an unsafe use of the same
451 wxString object which happens because the wxString field in the
452 original @a event object and its copy made internally by this function
453 share the same string buffer internally. Use QueueEvent() to avoid
454 this.
455
456 A copy of @a event is made by the function, so the original can be deleted
457 as soon as function returns (it is common that the original is created

471 Normally, your application would not call this function: it is called in the
472 wxWidgets implementation to dispatch incoming user interface events to the
473 framework (and application).
474
475 However, you might need to call it if implementing new functionality
476 (such as a new control) where you define new event types, as opposed to
477 allowing the user to override virtual functions.
478
479 Notice that you don't usually need to override ProcessEvent() to
480 customize the event handling, overriding the specially provided
481 TryBefore() and TryAfter() functions is usually enough. For example,
482 wxMDIParentFrame may override TryBefore() to ensure that the menu
483 events are processed in the active child frame before being processed
484 in the parent frame itself.
485
486 The normal order of event table searching is as follows:
487 -# wxApp::FilterEvent() is called. If it returns anything but @c -1
488 (default) the processing stops here.
489 -# TryBefore() is called (this is where wxValidator are taken into
490 account for wxWindow objects). If this returns @true, the function exits.
491 -# If the object is disabled (via a call to wxEvtHandler::SetEvtHandlerEnabled)
492 the function skips to step (7).
493 -# Dynamic event table of the handlers bound using Bind<>() is
494 searched. If a handler is found, it is executed and the function
495 returns @true unless the handler used wxEvent::Skip() to indicate
496 that it didn't handle the event in which case the search continues.
497 -# Static events table of the handlers bound using event table
498 macros is searched for this event handler. If this fails, the base
499 class event table is tried, and so on until no more tables
500 exist or an appropriate function was found. If a handler is found,
501 the same logic as in the previous step applies.
502 -# The search is applied down the entire chain of event handlers (usually the
503 chain has a length of one). This chain can be formed using wxEvtHandler::SetNextHandler():
504 @image html overview_events_chain.png
505 (referring to the image, if @c A->ProcessEvent is called and it doesn't handle
506 the event, @c B->ProcessEvent will be called and so on...).
507 Note that in the case of wxWindow you can build a stack of event handlers
508 (see wxWindow::PushEventHandler() for more info).
509 If any of the handlers of the chain return @true, the function exits.
510 -# TryAfter() is called: for the wxWindow object this may propagate the
511 event to the window parent (recursively). If the event is still not
512 processed, ProcessEvent() on wxTheApp object is called as the last

642 flexible as it allows to connect events generated by some object to an
643 event handler defined in a different object of a different class (which
644 is impossible to do directly with the event tables -- the events can be
645 only handled in another object if they are propagated upwards to it).
646 Do make sure to specify the correct @a eventSink when connecting to an
647 event of a different object.
648
649 See @ref overview_events_bind for more detailed explanation
650 of this function and the @ref page_samples_event sample for usage
651 examples.
652
653 This specific overload allows you to connect an event handler to a @e range
654 of @e source IDs.
655 Do not confuse @e source IDs with event @e types: source IDs identify the
656 event generator objects (typically wxMenuItem or wxWindow objects) while the
657 event @e type identify which type of events should be handled by the
658 given @e function (an event generator object may generate many different
659 types of events!).
660
661 @param id
662 The first ID of the identifier range to be associated with the event
663 handler function.
664 @param lastId
665 The last ID of the identifier range to be associated with the event
666 handler function.
667 @param eventType
668 The event type to be associated with this event handler.
669 @param function
670 The event handler function. Note that this function should
671 be explicitly converted to the correct type which can be done using a macro
672 called @c wxFooEventHandler for the handler for any @c wxFooEvent.
673 @param userData
674 Data to be associated with the event table entry.
675 @param eventSink
676 Object whose member function should be called. It must be specified
677 when connecting an event generated by one object to a member
678 function of a different object. If it is omitted, @c this is used.
679
680 @beginWxPerlOnly
681 In wxPerl this function takes 4 arguments: @a id, @a lastid,
682 @a type, @a method; if @a method is undef, the handler is

1217/**
1218 @class wxKeyEvent
1219
1220 This event class contains information about key press and release events.
1221
1222 The main information carried by this event is the key being pressed or
1223 released. It can be accessed using either GetKeyCode() function or
1224 GetUnicodeKey(). For the printable characters, the latter should be used as
1225 it works for any keys, including non-Latin-1 characters that can be entered
1226 when using national keyboard layouts. GetKeyCode() should be used to handle
1227 special characters (such as cursor arrows keys or @c HOME or @c INS and so
1228 on) which correspond to ::wxKeyCode enum elements above the @c WXK_START
1229 constant. While GetKeyCode() also returns the character code for Latin-1
1230 keys for compatibility, it doesn't work for Unicode characters in general
1231 and will return @c WXK_NONE for any non-Latin-1 ones. For this reason, it's
1232 recommended to always use GetUnicodeKey() and only fall back to GetKeyCode()
1233 if GetUnicodeKey() returned @c WXK_NONE meaning that the event corresponds
1234 to a non-printable special keys.
1235
1236 While both of these functions can be used with the events of @c
1237 wxEVT_KEY_DOWN, @c wxEVT_KEY_UP and @c wxEVT_CHAR types, the values
1238 returned by them are different for the first two events and the last one.
1239 For the latter, the key returned corresponds to the character that would
1240 appear in e.g. a text zone if the user pressed the key in it. As such, its
1241 value depends on the current state of the Shift key and, for the letters,
1242 on the state of Caps Lock modifier. For example, if @c A key is pressed
1243 without Shift being held down, wxKeyEvent of type @c wxEVT_CHAR generated
1244 for this key press will return (from either GetKeyCode() or GetUnicodeKey()
1245 as their meanings coincide for ASCII characters) key code of 97
1246 corresponding the ASCII value of @c a. And if the same key is pressed but
1247 with Shift being held (or Caps Lock being active), then the key could would
1248 be 65, i.e. ASCII value of capital @c A.
1249
1250 However for the key down and up events the returned key code will instead
1251 be @c A independently of the state of the modifier keys i.e. it depends
1252 only on physical key being pressed and is not translated to its logical
1253 representation using the current keyboard state. Such untranslated key
1254 codes are defined as follows:
1255 - For the letters they correspond to the @e upper case value of the
1256 letter.
1257 - For the other alphanumeric keys (e.g. @c 7 or @c +), the untranslated
1258 key code corresponds to the character produced by the key when it is
1259 pressed without Shift. E.g. in standard US keyboard layout the
1260 untranslated key code for the key @c =/+ in the upper right corner of
1261 the keyboard is 61 which is the ASCII value of @c =.
1262 - For the rest of the keys (i.e. special non-printable keys) it is the
1263 same as the normal key code as no translation is used anyhow.
1264
1265 Notice that the first rule applies to all Unicode letters, not just the
1266 usual Latin-1 ones. However for non-Latin-1 letters only GetUnicodeKey()
1267 can be used to retrieve the key code as GetKeyCode() just returns @c
1268 WXK_NONE in this case.
1269
1270 To summarize: you should handle @c wxEVT_CHAR if you need the translated
1271 key and @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN if you only need the value of the key itself,
1272 independent of the current keyboard state.
1273
1274 @note Not all key down events may be generated by the user. As an example,
1275 @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN with @c = key code can be generated using the
1276 standard US keyboard layout but not using the German one because the @c
1277 = key corresponds to Shift-0 key combination in this layout and the key
1278 code for it is @c 0, not @c =. Because of this you should avoid
1279 requiring your users to type key events that might be impossible to
1280 enter on their keyboard.
1281
1282
1283 Another difference between key and char events is that another kind of
1284 translation is done for the latter ones when the Control key is pressed:
1285 char events for ASCII letters in this case carry codes corresponding to the
1286 ASCII value of Ctrl-Latter, i.e. 1 for Ctrl-A, 2 for Ctrl-B and so on until
1287 26 for Ctrl-Z. This is convenient for terminal-like applications and can be
1288 completely ignored by all the other ones (if you need to handle Ctrl-A it
1289 is probably a better idea to use the key event rather than the char one).
1290 Notice that currently no translation is done for the presses of @c [, @c
1291 \\, @c ], @c ^ and @c _ keys which might be mapped to ASCII values from 27
1292 to 31.
1293 Since version 2.9.2, the enum values @c WXK_CONTROL_A - @c WXK_CONTROL_Z
1294 can be used instead of the non-descriptive constant values 1-26.
1295
1296 Finally, modifier keys only generate key events but no char events at all.
1297 The modifiers keys are @c WXK_SHIFT, @c WXK_CONTROL, @c WXK_ALT and various
1298 @c WXK_WINDOWS_XXX from ::wxKeyCode enum.
1299
1300 Modifier keys events are special in one additional aspect: usually the
1301 keyboard state associated with a key press is well defined, e.g.
1302 wxKeyboardState::ShiftDown() returns @c true only if the Shift key was held
1303 pressed when the key that generated this event itself was pressed. There is
1304 an ambiguity for the key press events for Shift key itself however. By
1305 convention, it is considered to be already pressed when it is pressed and
1306 already released when it is released. In other words, @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN
1307 event for the Shift key itself will have @c wxMOD_SHIFT in GetModifiers()
1308 and ShiftDown() will return true while the @c wxEVT_KEY_UP event for Shift
1309 itself will not have @c wxMOD_SHIFT in its modifiers and ShiftDown() will
1310 return false.
1311
1312
1313 @b Tip: You may discover the key codes and modifiers generated by all the
1314 keys on your system interactively by running the @ref
1315 page_samples_keyboard wxWidgets sample and pressing some keys in it.
1316
1317 @note If a key down (@c EVT_KEY_DOWN) event is caught and the event handler
1318 does not call @c event.Skip() then the corresponding char event
1319 (@c EVT_CHAR) will not happen. This is by design and enables the
1320 programs that handle both types of events to avoid processing the
1321 same key twice. As a consequence, if you do not want to suppress the
1322 @c wxEVT_CHAR events for the keys you handle, always call @c
1323 event.Skip() in your @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN handler. Not doing may also
1324 prevent accelerators defined using this key from working.
1325
1326 @note If a key is maintained in a pressed state, you will typically get a
1327 lot of (automatically generated) key down events but only one key up
1328 one at the end when the key is released so it is wrong to assume that
1329 there is one up event corresponding to each down one.
1330
1331 @note For Windows programmers: The key and char events in wxWidgets are
1332 similar to but slightly different from Windows @c WM_KEYDOWN and
1333 @c WM_CHAR events. In particular, Alt-x combination will generate a
1334 char event in wxWidgets (unless it is used as an accelerator) and
1335 almost all keys, including ones without ASCII equivalents, generate
1336 char events too.
1337
1338
1339 @beginEventTable{wxKeyEvent}
1340 @event{EVT_KEY_DOWN(func)}
1341 Process a @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN event (any key has been pressed). If this
1342 event is handled and not skipped, @c wxEVT_CHAR will not be generated
1343 at all for this key press (but @c wxEVT_KEY_UP will be).
1344 @event{EVT_KEY_UP(func)}
1345 Process a @c wxEVT_KEY_UP event (any key has been released).
1346 @event{EVT_CHAR(func)}
1347 Process a @c wxEVT_CHAR event.
1348 @event{EVT_CHAR_HOOK(func)}
1349 Process a @c wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK event. Unlike all the other key events,
1350 this event is propagated upwards the window hierarchy which allows
1351 intercepting it in the parent window of the focused window to which it
1352 is sent initially (if there is no focused window, this event is sent to
1353 the wxApp global object). It is also generated before any other key
1354 events and so gives the parent window an opportunity to modify the
1355 keyboard handling of its children, e.g. it is used internally by
1356 wxWidgets in some ports to intercept pressing Esc key in any child of a
1357 dialog to close the dialog itself when it's pressed. By default, if
1358 this event is handled, i.e. the handler doesn't call wxEvent::Skip(),
1359 neither @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN nor @c wxEVT_CHAR events will be generated
1360 (although @c wxEVT_KEY_UP still will be), i.e. it replaces the normal
1361 key events. However by calling the special DoAllowNextEvent() method
1362 you can handle @c wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK and still allow normal events
1363 generation. This is something that is rarely useful but can be required
1364 if you need to prevent a parent @c wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK handler from running
1365 without suppressing the normal key events. Finally notice that this
1366 event is not generated when the mouse is captured as it is considered
1367 that the window which has the capture should receive all the keyboard
1368 events too without allowing its parent wxTopLevelWindow to interfere
1369 with their processing.

1828 wxWindowDC) in EVT_PAINT handlers and also don't create wxPaintDC outside
1829 of this event handlers.
1830
1831
1832 You can optimize painting by retrieving the rectangles that have been damaged
1833 and only repainting these. The rectangles are in terms of the client area,
1834 and are unscrolled, so you will need to do some calculations using the current
1835 view position to obtain logical, scrolled units.
1836 Here is an example of using the wxRegionIterator class:
1837 @code
1838 // Called when window needs to be repainted.
1839 void MyWindow::OnPaint(wxPaintEvent& event)
1840 {
1841 wxPaintDC dc(this);
1842
1843 // Find Out where the window is scrolled to
1844 int vbX,vbY; // Top left corner of client
1845 GetViewStart(&vbX,&vbY);
1846
1847 int vX,vY,vW,vH; // Dimensions of client area in pixels
1848 wxRegionIterator upd(GetUpdateRegion()); // get the update rect list
1849
1850 while (upd)
1851 {
1852 vX = upd.GetX();
1853 vY = upd.GetY();
1854 vW = upd.GetW();
1855 vH = upd.GetH();
1856
1857 // Alternatively we can do this:
1858 // wxRect rect(upd.GetRect());
1859
1860 // Repaint this rectangle
1861 ...some code...
1862
1863 upd ++ ;
1864 }
1865 }
1866 @endcode
1867
1868 @remarks
1869 Please notice that in general it is impossible to change the drawing of a
1870 standard control (such as wxButton) and so you shouldn't attempt to handle
1871 paint events for them as even if it might work on some platforms, this is
1872 inherently not portable and won't work everywhere.

1941/**
1942 @class wxUpdateUIEvent
1943
1944 This class is used for pseudo-events which are called by wxWidgets
1945 to give an application the chance to update various user interface elements.
1946
1947 Without update UI events, an application has to work hard to check/uncheck,
1948 enable/disable, show/hide, and set the text for elements such as menu items
1949 and toolbar buttons. The code for doing this has to be mixed up with the code
1950 that is invoked when an action is invoked for a menu item or button.
1951
1952 With update UI events, you define an event handler to look at the state of the
1953 application and change UI elements accordingly. wxWidgets will call your member
1954 functions in idle time, so you don't have to worry where to call this code.
1955
1956 In addition to being a clearer and more declarative method, it also means you don't
1957 have to worry whether you're updating a toolbar or menubar identifier. The same
1958 handler can update a menu item and toolbar button, if the identifier is the same.
1959 Instead of directly manipulating the menu or button, you call functions in the event
1960 object, such as wxUpdateUIEvent::Check. wxWidgets will determine whether such a
1961 call has been made, and which UI element to update.
1962
1963 These events will work for popup menus as well as menubars. Just before a menu is
1964 popped up, wxMenu::UpdateUI is called to process any UI events for the window that
1965 owns the menu.
1966
1967 If you find that the overhead of UI update processing is affecting your application,
1968 you can do one or both of the following:
1969 @li Call wxUpdateUIEvent::SetMode with a value of wxUPDATE_UI_PROCESS_SPECIFIED,
1970 and set the extra style wxWS_EX_PROCESS_UI_UPDATES for every window that should
1971 receive update events. No other windows will receive update events.
1972 @li Call wxUpdateUIEvent::SetUpdateInterval with a millisecond value to set the delay
1973 between updates. You may need to call wxWindow::UpdateWindowUI at critical points,
1974 for example when a dialog is about to be shown, in case the user sees a slight
1975 delay before windows are updated.
1976
1977 Note that although events are sent in idle time, defining a wxIdleEvent handler
1978 for a window does not affect this because the events are sent from wxWindow::OnInternalIdle
1979 which is always called in idle time.
1980
1981 wxWidgets tries to optimize update events on some platforms.
1982 On Windows and GTK+, events for menubar items are only sent when the menu is about
1983 to be shown, and not in idle time.

2141 @class wxClipboardTextEvent
2142
2143 This class represents the events generated by a control (typically a
2144 wxTextCtrl but other windows can generate these events as well) when its
2145 content gets copied or cut to, or pasted from the clipboard.
2146
2147 There are three types of corresponding events @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_COPY,
2148 @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_CUT and @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_PASTE.
2149
2150 If any of these events is processed (without being skipped) by an event
2151 handler, the corresponding operation doesn't take place which allows to
2152 prevent the text from being copied from or pasted to a control. It is also
2153 possible to examine the clipboard contents in the PASTE event handler and
2154 transform it in some way before inserting in a control -- for example,
2155 changing its case or removing invalid characters.
2156
2157 Finally notice that a CUT event is always preceded by the COPY event which
2158 makes it possible to only process the latter if it doesn't matter if the
2159 text was copied or cut.
2160
2161 @note
2162 These events are currently only generated by wxTextCtrl under GTK+.

2192/**
2193 @class wxMouseEvent
2194
2195 This event class contains information about the events generated by the mouse:
2196 they include mouse buttons press and release events and mouse move events.
2197
2198 All mouse events involving the buttons use @c wxMOUSE_BTN_LEFT for the
2199 left mouse button, @c wxMOUSE_BTN_MIDDLE for the middle one and
2200 @c wxMOUSE_BTN_RIGHT for the right one. And if the system supports more
2201 buttons, the @c wxMOUSE_BTN_AUX1 and @c wxMOUSE_BTN_AUX2 events
2202 can also be generated. Note that not all mice have even a middle button so a
2203 portable application should avoid relying on the events from it (but the right
2204 button click can be emulated using the left mouse button with the control key
2205 under Mac platforms with a single button mouse).
2206
2207 For the @c wxEVT_ENTER_WINDOW and @c wxEVT_LEAVE_WINDOW events
2208 purposes, the mouse is considered to be inside the window if it is in the
2209 window client area and not inside one of its children. In other words, the
2210 parent window receives @c wxEVT_LEAVE_WINDOW event not only when the
2211 mouse leaves the window entirely but also when it enters one of its children.
2212
2213 The position associated with a mouse event is expressed in the window
2214 coordinates of the window which generated the event, you can use
2215 wxWindow::ClientToScreen() to convert it to screen coordinates and possibly
2216 call wxWindow::ScreenToClient() next to convert it to window coordinates of
2217 another window.
2218
2219 @note Note that under Windows CE mouse enter and leave events are not natively
2220 supported by the system but are generated by wxWidgets itself. This has several
2221 drawbacks: the LEAVE_WINDOW event might be received some time after the mouse
2222 left the window and the state variables for it may have changed during this time.
2223
2224 @note Note the difference between methods like wxMouseEvent::LeftDown and
2225 the inherited wxMouseState::LeftIsDown: the former returns @true when
2226 the event corresponds to the left mouse button click while the latter
2227 returns @true if the left mouse button is currently being pressed.
2228 For example, when the user is dragging the mouse you can use
2229 wxMouseEvent::LeftIsDown to test whether the left mouse button is
2230 (still) depressed. Also, by convention, if wxMouseEvent::LeftDown
2231 returns @true, wxMouseEvent::LeftIsDown will also return @true in
2232 wxWidgets whatever the underlying GUI behaviour is (which is
2233 platform-dependent). The same applies, of course, to other mouse
2234 buttons as well.

2584
2585 This event class contains information about command events, which originate
2586 from a variety of simple controls.
2587
2588 Note that wxCommandEvents and wxCommandEvent-derived event classes by default
2589 and unlike other wxEvent-derived classes propagate upward from the source
2590 window (the window which emits the event) up to the first parent which processes
2591 the event. Be sure to read @ref overview_events_propagation.
2592
2593 More complex controls, such as wxTreeCtrl, have separate command event classes.
2594
2595 @beginEventTable{wxCommandEvent}
2596 @event{EVT_COMMAND(id, event, func)}
2597 Process a command, supplying the window identifier, command event identifier,
2598 and member function.
2599 @event{EVT_COMMAND_RANGE(id1, id2, event, func)}
2600 Process a command for a range of window identifiers, supplying the minimum and
2601 maximum window identifiers, command event identifier, and member function.
2602 @event{EVT_BUTTON(id, func)}
2603 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_BUTTON_CLICKED command, which is generated by a wxButton control.
2604 @event{EVT_CHECKBOX(id, func)}
2605 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_CHECKBOX_CLICKED command, which is generated by a wxCheckBox control.
2606 @event{EVT_CHOICE(id, func)}
2607 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_CHOICE_SELECTED command, which is generated by a wxChoice control.
2608 @event{EVT_COMBOBOX(id, func)}
2609 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_COMBOBOX_SELECTED command, which is generated by a wxComboBox control.
2610 @event{EVT_LISTBOX(id, func)}
2611 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_LISTBOX_SELECTED command, which is generated by a wxListBox control.
2612 @event{EVT_LISTBOX_DCLICK(id, func)}
2613 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_LISTBOX_DOUBLECLICKED command, which is generated by a wxListBox control.
2614 @event{EVT_CHECKLISTBOX(id, func)}
2615 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_CHECKLISTBOX_TOGGLED command, which is generated by a wxCheckListBox control.
2616 @event{EVT_MENU(id, func)}
2617 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_MENU_SELECTED command, which is generated by a menu item.
2618 @event{EVT_MENU_RANGE(id1, id2, func)}
2619 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_MENU_RANGE command, which is generated by a range of menu items.
2620 @event{EVT_CONTEXT_MENU(func)}
2621 Process the event generated when the user has requested a popup menu to appear by
2622 pressing a special keyboard key (under Windows) or by right clicking the mouse.
2623 @event{EVT_RADIOBOX(id, func)}
2624 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_RADIOBOX_SELECTED command, which is generated by a wxRadioBox control.
2625 @event{EVT_RADIOBUTTON(id, func)}
2626 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_RADIOBUTTON_SELECTED command, which is generated by a wxRadioButton control.
2627 @event{EVT_SCROLLBAR(id, func)}
2628 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_SCROLLBAR_UPDATED command, which is generated by a wxScrollBar
2629 control. This is provided for compatibility only; more specific scrollbar event macros
2630 should be used instead (see wxScrollEvent).
2631 @event{EVT_SLIDER(id, func)}
2632 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_SLIDER_UPDATED command, which is generated by a wxSlider control.
2633 @event{EVT_TEXT(id, func)}

2635 @event{EVT_TEXT_ENTER(id, func)}
2636 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_ENTER command, which is generated by a wxTextCtrl control.
2637 Note that you must use wxTE_PROCESS_ENTER flag when creating the control if you want it
2638 to generate such events.
2639 @event{EVT_TEXT_MAXLEN(id, func)}
2640 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_MAXLEN command, which is generated by a wxTextCtrl control
2641 when the user tries to enter more characters into it than the limit previously set
2642 with SetMaxLength().

3231 @class wxHelpEvent
3232
3233 A help event is sent when the user has requested context-sensitive help.
3234 This can either be caused by the application requesting context-sensitive help mode
3235 via wxContextHelp, or (on MS Windows) by the system generating a WM_HELP message when
3236 the user pressed F1 or clicked on the query button in a dialog caption.
3237
3238 A help event is sent to the window that the user clicked on, and is propagated
3239 up the window hierarchy until the event is processed or there are no more event
3240 handlers.
3241
3242 The application should call wxEvent::GetId to check the identity of the
3243 clicked-on window, and then either show some suitable help or call wxEvent::Skip()
3244 if the identifier is unrecognised.
3245
3246 Calling Skip is important because it allows wxWidgets to generate further
3247 events for ancestors of the clicked-on window. Otherwise it would be impossible to
3248 show help for container windows, since processing would stop after the first window
3249 found.

3320 @class wxScrollEvent
3321
3322 A scroll event holds information about events sent from stand-alone
3323 scrollbars (see wxScrollBar) and sliders (see wxSlider).
3324
3325 Note that scrolled windows send the wxScrollWinEvent which does not derive from
3326 wxCommandEvent, but from wxEvent directly - don't confuse these two kinds of
3327 events and use the event table macros mentioned below only for the scrollbar-like
3328 controls.
3329
3330 @section scrollevent_diff The difference between EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE and EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED
3331
3332 The EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE event is only emitted when actually dragging the thumb
3333 using the mouse and releasing it (This EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE event is also followed
3334 by an EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED event).
3335
3336 The EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED event also occurs when using the keyboard to change the thumb
3337 position, and when clicking next to the thumb (In all these cases the EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE
3338 event does not happen).
3339
3340 In short, the EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED event is triggered when scrolling/ moving has finished
3341 independently of the way it had started. Please see the widgets sample ("Slider" page)
3342 to see the difference between EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE and EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED in action.
3343
3344 @remarks
3345 Note that unless specifying a scroll control identifier, you will need to test for scrollbar
3346 orientation with wxScrollEvent::GetOrientation, since horizontal and vertical scroll events
3347 are processed using the same event handler.
3348
3349 @beginEventTable{wxScrollEvent}
3350 You can use EVT_COMMAND_SCROLL... macros with window IDs for when intercepting
3351 scroll events from controls, or EVT_SCROLL... macros without window IDs for

3442 @class wxIdleEvent
3443
3444 This class is used for idle events, which are generated when the system becomes
3445 idle. Note that, unless you do something specifically, the idle events are not
3446 sent if the system remains idle once it has become it, e.g. only a single idle
3447 event will be generated until something else resulting in more normal events
3448 happens and only then is the next idle event sent again.
3449
3450 If you need to ensure a continuous stream of idle events, you can either use
3451 wxIdleEvent::RequestMore method in your handler or call wxWakeUpIdle() periodically
3452 (for example from a timer event handler), but note that both of these approaches
3453 (and especially the first one) increase the system load and so should be avoided
3454 if possible.
3455
3456 By default, idle events are sent to all windows, including even the hidden
3457 ones because they may be shown if some condition is met from their @c
3458 wxEVT_IDLE (or related @c wxEVT_UPDATE_UI) handler. The children of hidden
3459 windows do not receive idle events however as they can't change their state
3460 in any way noticeable by the user. Finally, the global wxApp object also
3461 receives these events, as usual, so it can be used for any global idle time
3462 processing.
3463
3464 If sending idle events to all windows is causing a significant overhead in
3465 your application, you can call wxIdleEvent::SetMode with the value
3466 wxIDLE_PROCESS_SPECIFIED, and set the wxWS_EX_PROCESS_IDLE extra window
3467 style for every window which should receive idle events, all the other ones
3468 will not receive them in this case.

3563 @class wxWindowDestroyEvent
3564
3565 This event is sent as early as possible during the window destruction
3566 process.
3567
3568 For the top level windows, as early as possible means that this is done by
3569 wxFrame or wxDialog destructor, i.e. after the destructor of the derived
3570 class was executed and so any methods specific to the derived class can't
3571 be called any more from this event handler. If you need to do this, you
3572 must call wxWindow::SendDestroyEvent() from your derived class destructor.
3573
3574 For the child windows, this event is generated just before deleting the
3575 window from wxWindow::Destroy() (which is also called when the parent
3576 window is deleted) or from the window destructor if operator @c delete was
3577 used directly (which is not recommended for this very reason).
3578
3579 It is usually pointless to handle this event in the window itself but it ca
3580 be very useful to receive notifications about the window destruction in the
3581 parent window or in any other object interested in this window.

3731/**
3732 @class wxCloseEvent
3733
3734 This event class contains information about window and session close events.
3735
3736 The handler function for EVT_CLOSE is called when the user has tried to close a
3737 a frame or dialog box using the window manager (X) or system menu (Windows).
3738 It can also be invoked by the application itself programmatically, for example by
3739 calling the wxWindow::Close function.
3740
3741 You should check whether the application is forcing the deletion of the window
3742 using wxCloseEvent::CanVeto. If this is @false, you @e must destroy the window
3743 using wxWindow::Destroy.
3744
3745 If the return value is @true, it is up to you whether you respond by destroying
3746 the window.
3747
3748 If you don't destroy the window, you should call wxCloseEvent::Veto to
3749 let the calling code know that you did not destroy the window.
3750 This allows the wxWindow::Close function to return @true or @false depending
3751 on whether the close instruction was honoured or not.
3752
3753 Example of a wxCloseEvent handler:
3754
3755 @code
3756 void MyFrame::OnClose(wxCloseEvent& event)
3757 {
3758 if ( event.CanVeto() && m_bFileNotSaved )
3759 {
3760 if ( wxMessageBox("The file has not been saved... continue closing?",
3761 "Please confirm",
3762 wxICON_QUESTION | wxYES_NO) != wxYES )
3763 {
3764 event.Veto();
3765 return;
3766 }
3767 }
3768
3769 Destroy(); // you may also do: event.Skip();
3770 // since the default event handler does call Destroy(), too
3771 }
3772 @endcode
3773
3774 The EVT_END_SESSION event is slightly different as it is sent by the system
3775 when the user session is ending (e.g. because of log out or shutdown) and
3776 so all windows are being forcefully closed. At least under MSW, after the
3777 handler for this event is executed the program is simply killed by the
3778 system. Because of this, the default handler for this event provided by
3779 wxWidgets calls all the usual cleanup code (including wxApp::OnExit()) so
3780 that it could still be executed and exit()s the process itself, without
3781 waiting for being killed. If this behaviour is for some reason undesirable,
3782 make sure that you define a handler for this event in your wxApp-derived
3783 class and do not call @c event.Skip() in it (but be aware that the system
3784 will still kill your application).
