| 3 | The view class can be used to model the viewing and editing component of |
| 4 | an application's file-based data. It is part of the document/view framework supported by wxWindows, |
| 5 | and cooperates with the \helpref{wxDocument}{wxdocument}, \helpref{wxDocTemplate}{wxdoctemplate} |
| 6 | and \helpref{wxDocManager}{wxdocmanager} classes. |

| 24 | \membersection{wxView::m\_viewDocument} |
| 25 | |
| 26 | \member{wxDocument*}{m\_viewDocument} |
| 27 | |
| 28 | The document associated with this view. There may be more than one view per |
| 29 | document, but there can never be more than one document for one view. |
| 30 | |
| 31 | \membersection{wxView::m\_viewFrame} |
| 32 | |
| 33 | \member{wxFrame*}{m\_viewFrame} |
| 34 | |
| 35 | Frame associated with the view, if any. |
| 36 | |
| 37 | \membersection{wxView::m\_viewTypeName} |
| 38 | |
| 39 | \member{wxString}{m\_viewTypeName} |
| 40 | |
| 41 | The view type name given to the wxDocTemplate constructor, copied to this |
| 42 | variable when the view is created. Not currently used by the framework. |
| 43 | |
| 44 | \membersection{wxView::wxView} |
| 45 | |
| 46 | \func{}{wxView}{\void} |
| 47 | |
| 48 | Constructor. Define your own default constructor to initialize application-specific |
| 49 | data. |
| 50 | |
| 51 | \membersection{wxView::\destruct{wxView}} |
| 52 | |
| 53 | \func{}{\destruct{wxView}}{\void} |
| 54 | |
| 55 | Destructor. Removes itself from the document's list of views. |
| 56 | |
| 57 | \membersection{wxView::Activate} |
| 58 | |
| 59 | \func{virtual void}{Activate}{\param{bool}{ activate}} |
| 60 | |
| 61 | Call this from your view frame's OnActivate member to tell the framework which view is |
| 62 | currently active. If your windowing system doesn't call OnActivate, you may need to |
| 63 | call this function from OnMenuCommand or any place where you know the view must |
| 64 | be active, and the framework will need to get the current view. |
| 65 | |
| 66 | The prepackaged view frame wxDocChildFrame calls wxView::Activate from its OnActivate member |
| 67 | and from its OnMenuCommand member. |
| 68 | |
| 69 | This function calls wxView::OnActivateView. |
| 70 | |
| 71 | \membersection{wxView::Close} |
| 72 | |
| 73 | \func{virtual bool}{Close}{\param{bool}{ deleteWindow = TRUE}} |
| 74 | |
| 75 | Closes the view by calling OnClose. If {\it deleteWindow} is TRUE, this function should |
| 76 | delete the window associated with the view. |
| 77 | |
| 78 | \membersection{wxView::GetDocument} |
| 79 | |
| 80 | \constfunc{wxDocument*}{GetDocument}{\void} |
| 81 | |
| 82 | Gets a pointer to the document associated with the view. |
| 83 | |
| 84 | \membersection{wxView::GetDocumentManager} |
| 85 | |
| 86 | \constfunc{wxDocumentManager*}{GetDocumentManager}{\void} |
| 87 | |
| 88 | Returns a pointer to the document manager instance associated with this view. |
| 89 | |
| 90 | \membersection{wxView::GetFrame} |
| 91 | |
| 92 | \func{wxFrame *}{GetFrame}{\void} |
| 93 | |
| 94 | Gets the frame associated with the view (if any). |
| 95 | |
| 96 | \membersection{wxView::GetViewName} |
| 97 | |
| 98 | \constfunc{wxString}{GetViewName}{\void} |
| 99 | |
| 100 | Gets the name associated with the view (passed to the wxDocTemplate constructor). |
| 101 | Not currently used by the framework. |
| 102 | |
| 103 | \membersection{wxView::OnActivateView} |
| 104 | |
| 105 | \func{virtual void}{OnActivateView}{\param{bool }{activate}, \param{wxView *}{activeView}, \param{wxView *}{deactiveView}} |
| 106 | |
| 107 | Called when a view is activated by means of wxView::Activate. The default implementation does |
| 108 | nothing. |
| 109 | |
| 110 | \membersection{wxView::OnChangeFilename} |
| 111 | |
| 112 | \func{virtual void}{OnChangeFilename}{\void} |
| 113 | |
| 114 | Called when the filename has changed. The default implementation constructs a |
| 115 | suitable title and sets the title of the view frame (if any). |
| 116 | |
| 117 | \membersection{wxView::OnClose} |
| 118 | |
| 119 | \func{virtual bool}{OnClose}{\param{bool}{ deleteWindow}} |
| 120 | |
| 121 | Implements closing behaviour. The default implementation calls wxDocument::Close |
| 122 | to close the associated document. Does not delete the view. The application |
| 123 | may wish to do some cleaning up operations in this function, {\it if} a |
| 124 | call to wxDocument::Close succeeded. For example, if your application's |
| 125 | all share the same window, you need to disassociate the window from the view |
| 126 | and perhaps clear the window. If {\it deleteWindow} is TRUE, delete the |
| 127 | frame associated with the view. |
| 128 | |
| 129 | \membersection{wxView::OnCreate} |
| 130 | |
| 131 | \func{virtual bool}{OnCreate}{\param{wxDocument* }{doc}, \param{long}{ flags}} |
| 132 | |
| 133 | wxDocManager or wxDocument creates a wxView via a wxDocTemplate. |
| 134 | Just after the wxDocTemplate creates the wxView, it calls |
| 135 | wxView::OnCreate. In its OnCreate member function, the wxView can create a wxDocChildFrame |
| 136 | or a derived class. This wxDocChildFrame provides user interface |
| 137 | elements to view and/or edit the contents of the wxDocument. |
| 138 | |
| 139 | By default, simply returns TRUE. If the function returns FALSE, the |
| 140 | view will be deleted. |
| 141 | |
| 142 | \membersection{wxView::OnCreatePrintout} |
| 143 | |
| 144 | \func{virtual wxPrintout*}{OnCreatePrintout}{\void} |
| 145 | |
| 146 | If the printing framework is enabled in the library, this function returns a |
| 147 | \rtfsp\helpref{wxPrintout}{wxprintout} object for the purposes of printing. It should create a new object |
| 148 | every time it is called; the framework will delete objects it creates. |
| 149 | |
| 150 | By default, this function returns an instance of wxDocPrintout, which prints |
| 151 | and previews one page by calling wxView::OnDraw. |
| 152 | |
| 153 | Override to return an instance of a class other than wxDocPrintout. |
| 154 | |
| 155 | \membersection{wxView::OnUpdate} |
| 156 | |
| 157 | \func{virtual void}{OnUpdate}{\param{wxView* }{sender}, \param{wxObject* }{hint}} |
| 158 | |
| 159 | Called when the view should be updated. {\it sender} is a pointer to the view |
| 160 | that sent the update request, or NULL if no single view requested the update (for instance, |
| 161 | when the document is opened). {\it hint} is as yet unused but may in future contain |
| 162 | application-specific information for making updating more efficient. |
| 163 | |
| 164 | \membersection{wxView::SetDocument} |
| 165 | |
| 166 | \func{void}{SetDocument}{\param{wxDocument* }{doc}} |
| 167 | |
| 168 | Associates the given document with the view. Normally called by the |
| 169 | framework. |
| 170 | |
| 171 | \membersection{wxView::SetFrame} |
| 172 | |
| 173 | \func{void}{SetFrame}{\param{wxFrame* }{frame}} |
| 174 | |
| 175 | Sets the frame associated with this view. The application should call this |
| 176 | if possible, to tell the view about the frame. |
| 177 | |
| 178 | \membersection{wxView::SetViewName} |
| 179 | |
| 180 | \func{void}{SetViewName}{\param{const wxString\& }{name}} |
| 181 | |
| 182 | Sets the view type name. Should only be called by the framework. |
| 183 | |
