3This event class contains information about window and session close events.
4
5The handler function for EVT\_CLOSE is called when the user has tried to close a a frame
6or dialog box using the window manager (X) or system menu (Windows). It can
7also be invoked by the application itself programmatically, for example by
8calling the \helpref{wxWindow::Close}{wxwindowclose} function.
9
10You should check whether the application is forcing the deletion of the window
11using \helpref{wxCloseEvent::CanVeto}{wxcloseeventcanveto}. If this is {\tt false},
12you {\it must} destroy the window using \helpref{wxWindow::Destroy}{wxwindowdestroy}.
13If the return value is true, it is up to you whether you respond by destroying the window.
14
15If you don't destroy the window, you should call \helpref{wxCloseEvent::Veto}{wxcloseeventveto} to
16let the calling code know that you did not destroy the window. This allows the \helpref{wxWindow::Close}{wxwindowclose} function
17to return {\tt true} or {\tt false} depending on whether the close instruction was honoured or not.

34To process a close event, use these event handler macros to direct input to member
35functions that take a wxCloseEvent argument.

59\func{}{wxCloseEvent}{\param{WXTYPE}{ commandEventType = 0}, \param{int}{ id = 0}}
60
61Constructor.

64\membersection{wxCloseEvent::CanVeto}\label{wxcloseeventcanveto}
65
66\func{bool}{CanVeto}{\void}
67
68Returns true if you can veto a system shutdown or a window close event.
69Vetoing a window close event is not possible if the calling code wishes to
70force the application to exit, and so this function must be called to check this.
71
72
73\membersection{wxCloseEvent::GetLoggingOff}\label{wxcloseeventgetloggingoff}
74
75\constfunc{bool}{GetLoggingOff}{\void}
76
77Returns true if the user is just logging off or false if the system is
78shutting down. This method can only be called for end session and query end
79session events, it doesn't make sense for close window event.

82\membersection{wxCloseEvent::SetCanVeto}\label{wxcloseeventsetcanveto}
83
84\func{void}{SetCanVeto}{\param{bool}{ canVeto}}
85
86Sets the 'can veto' flag.

89\membersection{wxCloseEvent::SetForce}\label{wxcloseeventsetforce}
90
91\constfunc{void}{SetForce}{\param{bool}{ force}}

93Sets the 'force' flag.

96\membersection{wxCloseEvent::SetLoggingOff}\label{wxcloseeventsetloggingoff}
97
98\constfunc{void}{SetLoggingOff}{\param{bool}{ loggingOff}}

103\membersection{wxCloseEvent::Veto}\label{wxcloseeventveto}
104
105\func{void}{Veto}{\param{bool}{ veto = true}}
106
107Call this from your event handler to veto a system shutdown or to signal
108to the calling application that a window close did not happen.
109
110You can only veto a shutdown if \helpref{wxCloseEvent::CanVeto}{wxcloseeventcanveto} returns
111true.
