20 class wxDocTemplate
: public wxObject
24 Constructor. Create instances dynamically near the start of your
25 application after creating a wxDocManager instance, and before doing
26 any document or view operations.
29 The document manager object which manages this template.
31 A short description of what the template is for. This string will
32 be displayed in the file filter list of Windows file selectors.
34 An appropriate file filter such as "*.txt".
36 The default directory to use for file selectors.
38 The default file extension (such as "txt").
40 A name that should be unique for a given type of document, used for
41 gathering a list of views relevant to a particular document.
43 A name that should be unique for a given view.
45 A pointer to the run-time document class information as returned by
46 the CLASSINFO() macro, e.g. CLASSINFO(MyDocumentClass). If this is
47 not supplied, you will need to derive a new wxDocTemplate class and
48 override the CreateDocument() member to return a new document
51 A pointer to the run-time view class information as returned by the
52 CLASSINFO() macro, e.g. CLASSINFO(MyViewClass). If this is not
53 supplied, you will need to derive a new wxDocTemplate class and
54 override the CreateView() member to return a new view instance on
57 A bit list of the following:
58 - wxTEMPLATE_VISIBLE - The template may be displayed to the
60 - wxTEMPLATE_INVISIBLE - The template may not be displayed to

77 Creates a new instance of the associated document class. If you have
78 not supplied a wxClassInfo parameter to the template constructor, you
79 will need to override this function to return an appropriate document
82 This function calls InitDocument() which in turns calls
83 wxDocument::OnCreate().
85 virtual wxDocument

251 @see @ref overview_docview_wxdocmanager, wxDocument, wxView, wxDocTemplate,
254 class wxDocManager
: public wxEvtHandler
258 Constructor. Create a document manager instance dynamically near the
259 start of your application before doing any document or view operations.
261 If @a initialize is @true, the Initialize() function will be called to
262 create a default history list object. If you derive from wxDocManager,
263 you may wish to call the base constructor with @false, and then call
264 Initialize() in your own constructor, to allow your own Initialize() or
265 OnCreateFileHistory functions to be called.
270 Indicates whether Initialize() should be called by this ctor.
272 wxDocManager(long flags
= 0, bool initialize
= true);
277 virtual ~wxDocManager();
280 Sets the current view.
282 virtual void ActivateView(wxView
* doc
, bool activate
= true);
285 Adds the document to the list of documents.
287 void AddDocument(wxDocument
* doc
);
290 Adds a file to the file history list, if we have a pointer to an
291 appropriate file menu.
293 virtual void AddFileToHistory(const wxString
& filename
);
296 Adds the template to the document manager's template list.
298 void AssociateTemplate(wxDocTemplate
* temp
);
301 Closes all currently opened documents.
303 bool CloseDocuments(bool force
= true);
306 Creates a new document.
308 This function can either create a document corresponding to a new
309 file or to an already existing one depending on whether @c wxDOC_NEW is
310 specified in the @a flags.
312 By default, this function asks the user for the type of document to
313 open and the path to its file if it's not specified, i.e. if @a path is
314 empty. Specifying @c wxDOC_SILENT flag suppresses any prompts and means
315 that the @a path must be non-empty and there must be a registered
316 document template handling the extension of this file, otherwise a
317 warning message is logged and the function returns @NULL. Notice that
318 @c wxDOC_SILENT can be combined with @c wxDOC_NEW, however in this case
319 the @a path must still be specified, even if the file with this path
320 typically won't exist.
322 Finally notice that if this document manager was configured to allow
323 only a limited number of simultaneously opened documents using
324 SetMaxDocsOpen(), this function will try to close the oldest existing
325 document if this number was reached before creating a new document.
326 And if closing the old document fails (e.g. because it was vetoed by
327 user), this function fails as well.
330 Path to a file or an empty string. If the path is empty, the user
331 will be asked to select it (thus, this is incompatible with the use
332 of @c wxDOC_SILENT). The file should exist unless @a flags includes
335 By default, none. May include @c wxDOC_NEW to indicate that the new
336 document corresponds to a new file and not an existing one and
337 @c wxDOC_SILENT to suppress any dialogs asking the user about the
339 @return a new document object or @NULL on failure.
341 virtual wxDocument
* CreateDocument(const wxString
& path
, long flags
= 0);
344 Creates an empty new document.
346 This is equivalent to calling CreateDocument() with @c wxDOC_NEW flags
347 and without the file name.
349 wxDocument
*CreateNewDocument();
352 Creates a new view for the given document. If more than one view is
353 allowed for the document (by virtue of multiple templates mentioning
354 the same document type), a choice of view is presented to the user.
356 virtual wxView
* CreateView(wxDocument
* doc
, long flags
= 0);
359 Removes the template from the list of templates.
361 void DisassociateTemplate(wxDocTemplate
* temp
);
364 Appends the files in the history list to all menus managed by the file
367 virtual void FileHistoryAddFilesToMenu();
369 Appends the files in the history list to the given @a menu only.
371 virtual void FileHistoryAddFilesToMenu(wxMenu
* menu
);
374 Loads the file history from a config object.
378 virtual void FileHistoryLoad(const wxConfigBase
& config
);
381 Removes the given menu from the list of menus managed by the file
384 virtual void FileHistoryRemoveMenu(wxMenu
* menu
);
387 Saves the file history into a config object. This must be called
388 explicitly by the application.
392 virtual void FileHistorySave(wxConfigBase
& resourceFile
);
395 Use this menu for appending recently-visited document filenames, for
396 convenient access. Calling this function with a valid menu pointer
397 enables the history list functionality.
399 @note You can add multiple menus using this function, to be managed by
400 the file history object.
402 virtual void FileHistoryUseMenu(wxMenu
* menu
);
405 Given a path, try to find template that matches the extension. This is
406 only an approximate method of finding a template for creating a
409 virtual wxDocTemplate
* FindTemplateForPath(const wxString
& path
);
412 Returns the document associated with the currently active view (if
415 wxDocument
* GetCurrentDocument() const;
418 Returns the currently active view
420 virtual wxView
* GetCurrentView() const;
423 Returns a reference to the list of documents.
425 wxList
& GetDocuments();
428 Returns a pointer to file history.
430 virtual wxFileHistory
* GetFileHistory() const;
433 Returns the number of files currently stored in the file history.
435 virtual size_t GetHistoryFilesCount() const;
438 Returns the directory last selected by the user when opening a file.
441 wxString
GetLastDirectory() const;
444 Returns the number of documents that can be open simultaneously.
446 int GetMaxDocsOpen() const;
449 Returns a reference to the list of associated templates.
451 wxList
& GetTemplates();
454 Initializes data; currently just calls OnCreateFileHistory().
456 Some data cannot always be initialized in the constructor because the
457 programmer must be given the opportunity to override functionality. If
458 OnCreateFileHistory() was called from the constructor, an overridden
459 virtual OnCreateFileHistory() would not be called due to C++'s
460 'interesting' constructor semantics. In fact Initialize() @e is called
461 from the wxDocManager constructor, but this can be vetoed by passing
462 @false to the second argument, allowing the derived class's constructor
463 to call Initialize(), possibly calling a different
464 OnCreateFileHistory() from the default.
466 The bottom line: if you're not deriving from Initialize(), forget it
467 and construct wxDocManager with no arguments.
469 virtual bool Initialize();
472 Return a string containing a suitable default name for a new document.
473 By default this is implemented by appending an integer counter to the
474 string @b unnamed but can be overridden in the derived classes to do
475 something more appropriate.
477 virtual wxString
MakeNewDocumentName();
480 A hook to allow a derived class to create a different type of file
481 history. Called from Initialize().
483 virtual wxFileHistory
* OnCreateFileHistory();
486 Closes and deletes the currently active document.
488 void OnFileClose(wxCommandEvent
& event
);
491 Closes and deletes all the currently opened documents.
493 void OnFileCloseAll(wxCommandEvent
& event
);
496 Creates a document from a list of templates (if more than one
499 void OnFileNew(wxCommandEvent
& event
);
502 Creates a new document and reads in the selected file.
504 void OnFileOpen(wxCommandEvent
& event
);
507 Reverts the current document by calling wxDocument::Revert() for the
510 void OnFileRevert(wxCommandEvent
& event
);
513 Saves the current document by calling wxDocument::Save() for the
516 void OnFileSave(wxCommandEvent
& event
);
519 Calls wxDocument::SaveAs() for the current document.
521 void OnFileSaveAs(wxCommandEvent
& event
);
524 Removes the document from the list of documents.
526 void RemoveDocument(wxDocument
* doc
);
529 Under Windows, pops up a file selector with a list of filters
530 corresponding to document templates. The wxDocTemplate corresponding to
531 the selected file's extension is returned.
533 On other platforms, if there is more than one document template a
534 choice list is popped up, followed by a file selector.
536 This function is used in CreateDocument().
538 virtual wxDocTemplate
* SelectDocumentPath(wxDocTemplate
** templates
,
539 int noTemplates
, wxString
& path
,
540 long flags
, bool save
= false);
543 Returns a document template by asking the user (if there is more than
544 one template). This function is used in CreateDocument().
547 Pointer to an array of templates from which to choose a desired
550 Number of templates being pointed to by the templates pointer.
552 If more than one template is passed in in templates, then this
553 parameter indicates whether the list of templates that the user
554 will have to choose from is sorted or not when shown the choice box
555 dialog. Default is @false.
557 virtual wxDocTemplate
* SelectDocumentType(wxDocTemplate
** templates
,
562 Returns a document template by asking the user (if there is more than
563 one template), displaying a list of valid views. This function is used
564 in CreateView(). The dialog normally will not appear because the array
565 of templates only contains those relevant to the document in question,
566 and often there will only be one such.
569 Pointer to an array of templates from which to choose a desired
572 Number of templates being pointed to by the templates pointer.
574 If more than one template is passed in in templates, then this
575 parameter indicates whether the list of templates that the user
576 will have to choose from is sorted or not when shown the choice box
577 dialog. Default is @false.
579 virtual wxDocTemplate
* SelectViewType(wxDocTemplate
** templates
,
580 int noTemplates
, bool sort
= false);
583 Sets the directory to be displayed to the user when opening a file.
584 Initially this is empty.
586 void SetLastDirectory(const wxString
& dir
);
589 Sets the maximum number of documents that can be open at a time. By
590 default, this is @c INT_MAX, i.e. the number of documents is unlimited.
591 If you set it to 1, existing documents will be saved and deleted when
592 the user tries to open or create a new one (similar to the behaviour of
593 Windows Write, for example). Allowing multiple documents gives
594 behaviour more akin to MS Word and other Multiple Document Interface
597 void SetMaxDocsOpen(int n
);
600 The currently active view.
602 wxView
* m_currentView
;
605 Stores the integer to be used for the next default document name.
607 int m_defaultDocumentNameCounter
;
610 A list of all documents.
615 A pointer to an instance of wxFileHistory, which manages the history of
616 recently-visited files on the File menu.
618 wxFileHistory
* m_fileHistory
;
621 Stores the flags passed to the constructor.
626 The directory last selected by the user when opening a file.
628 wxFileHistory
* m_fileHistory
;
631 Stores the maximum number of documents that can be opened before
632 existing documents are closed. By default, this is 10,000.
642 The view class can be used to model the viewing and editing component of
643 an application's file-based data. It is part of the document/view framework
644 supported by wxWidgets, and cooperates with the wxDocument, wxDocTemplate
645 and wxDocManager classes.
650 @see @ref overview_docview_wxview, wxDocument, wxDocTemplate, wxDocManager
652 class wxView
: public wxEvtHandler
656 Constructor. Define your own default constructor to initialize
657 application-specific data.
662 Destructor. Removes itself from the document's list of views.
667 Call this from your view frame's wxDocChildFrame::OnActivate() member
668 to tell the framework which view is currently active. If your windowing
669 system doesn't call wxDocChildFrame::OnActivate(), you may need to call
670 this function from any place where you know the view must be active,
671 and the framework will need to get the current view.
673 The prepackaged view frame wxDocChildFrame calls Activate() from its
674 wxDocChildFrame::OnActivate() member.
676 This function calls OnActivateView().
678 virtual void Activate(bool activate
);
681 Closes the view by calling OnClose(). If @a deleteWindow is @true, this
682 function should delete the window associated with the view.
684 virtual bool Close(bool deleteWindow
= true);
687 Gets a pointer to the document associated with the view.
689 wxDocument
* GetDocument() const;
692 Returns a pointer to the document manager instance associated with this
695 wxDocManager
* GetDocumentManager() const;
698 Gets the frame associated with the view (if any). Note that this
699 "frame" is not a wxFrame at all in the generic MDI implementation which
700 uses notebook pages instead of frames and this is why this method
701 returns a wxWindow and not a wxFrame.
703 wxWindow
* GetFrame() const;
706 Gets the name associated with the view (passed to the wxDocTemplate
707 constructor). Not currently used by the framework.
709 wxString
GetViewName() const;
712 Called when a view is activated by means of Activate(). The default
713 implementation does nothing.
715 virtual void OnActivateView(bool activate
, wxView
* activeView
,
716 wxView
* deactiveView
);
719 Called when the filename has changed. The default implementation
720 constructs a suitable title and sets the title of the view frame (if
723 virtual void OnChangeFilename();
726 Implements closing behaviour. The default implementation calls
727 wxDocument::Close() to close the associated document. Does not delete
728 the view. The application may wish to do some cleaning up operations in
729 this function, @e if a call to wxDocument::Close() succeeded. For
730 example, if your views all share the same window, you need to
731 disassociate the window from the view and perhaps clear the window. If
732 @a deleteWindow is @true, delete the frame associated with the view.
734 virtual bool OnClose(bool deleteWindow
);
737 Override this to clean up the view when the document is being closed.
739 virtual void OnClosingDocument();
742 wxDocManager or wxDocument creates a wxView via a wxDocTemplate. Just
743 after the wxDocTemplate creates the wxView, it calls OnCreate(). The
744 wxView can create a wxDocChildFrame (or derived class) in its
745 wxView::OnCreate() member function. This wxDocChildFrame provides user
746 interface elements to view and/or edit the contents of the wxDocument.
748 By default, simply returns @true. If the function returns @false, the
749 view will be deleted.
751 virtual bool OnCreate(wxDocument
* doc
, long flags
);
754 If the printing framework is enabled in the library, this function
755 returns a wxPrintout object for the purposes of printing. It should
756 create a new object every time it is called; the framework will delete
759 By default, this function returns an instance of wxDocPrintout, which
760 prints and previews one page by calling OnDraw().
762 Override to return an instance of a class other than wxDocPrintout.
764 virtual wxPrintout
* OnCreatePrintout();
767 Override this function to render the view on the given device context.
769 virtual void OnDraw(wxDC
* dc
) = 0;
772 Called when the view should be updated.
775 A pointer to the wxView that sent the update request, or @NULL if
776 no single view requested the update (for instance, when the
779 This is unused currently, but may in future contain
780 application-specific information for making updating more
783 virtual void OnUpdate(wxView
* sender
, wxObject
* hint
= 0);
786 Associates the given document with the view. Normally called by the
789 virtual void SetDocument(wxDocument
* doc
);
792 Sets the frame associated with this view. The application should call
793 this if possible, to tell the view about the frame.
795 See GetFrame() for the explanation about the mismatch between the
796 "Frame" in the method name and the type of its parameter.
798 void SetFrame(wxWindow
* frame
);
801 Sets the view type name. Should only be called by the framework.
803 void SetViewName(const wxString
& name
);
806 The document associated with this view. There may be more than one view
807 per document, but there can never be more than one document for one
810 wxDocument

982 The document class can be used to model an application's file-based data.
983 It is part of the document/view framework supported by wxWidgets, and
984 cooperates with the wxView, wxDocTemplate and wxDocManager classes.
989 @see @ref overview_docview, wxView, wxDocTemplate, wxDocManager
991 class wxDocument
: public wxEvtHandler
995 Constructor. Define your own default constructor to initialize
996 application-specific data.
998 wxDocument(wxDocument
* parent
= 0);
1001 Destructor. Removes itself from the document manager.
1003 virtual ~wxDocument();
1006 If the view is not already in the list of views, adds the view and
1007 calls OnChangedViewList().
1009 virtual bool AddView(wxView
* view
);
1012 Closes the document, by calling OnSaveModified() and then (if this
1013 returned @true) OnCloseDocument(). This does not normally delete the
1014 document object, use DeleteAllViews() to do this implicitly.
1016 virtual bool Close();
1019 Calls wxView::Close() and deletes each view. Deleting the final view
1020 will implicitly delete the document itself, because the wxView
1021 destructor calls RemoveView(). This in turns calls OnChangedViewList(),
1022 whose default implemention is to save and delete the document if no
1025 virtual bool DeleteAllViews();
1028 Returns a pointer to the command processor associated with this
1031 @see wxCommandProcessor
1033 virtual wxCommandProcessor
* GetCommandProcessor() const;
1036 Gets a pointer to the associated document manager.
1038 virtual wxDocManager
* GetDocumentManager() const;
1041 Gets the document type name for this document. See the comment for
1042 @ref m_documentTypeName.
1044 wxString
GetDocumentName() const;
1047 Gets a pointer to the template that created the document.
1049 virtual wxDocTemplate
* GetDocumentTemplate() const;
1052 Intended to return a suitable window for using as a parent for
1053 document-related dialog boxes. By default, uses the frame associated
1054 with the first view.
1056 virtual wxWindow
* GetDocumentWindow() const;
1059 Gets the filename associated with this document, or "" if none is
1062 wxString
GetFilename() const;
1065 A convenience function to get the first view for a document, because in
1066 many cases a document will only have a single view.
1070 wxView
* GetFirstView() const;
1073 Gets the title for this document. The document title is used for an
1074 associated frame (if any), and is usually constructed by the framework
1077 wxString
GetTitle() const;
1080 Return the document name suitable to be shown to the user. The default
1081 implementation uses the document title, if any, of the name part of the
1082 document filename if it was set or, otherwise, the string @b unnamed.
1084 virtual wxString
GetUserReadableName() const;
1087 Returns the list whose elements are the views on the document.
1091 wxList
GetViews() const;
1094 Returns @true if the document has been modified since the last save,
1095 @false otherwise. You may need to override this if your document view
1096 maintains its own record of being modified.
1100 virtual bool IsModified() const;
1104 Override this function and call it from your own LoadObject() before
1105 streaming your own data. LoadObject() is called by the framework
1106 automatically when the document contents need to be loaded.
1108 @note This version of LoadObject() may not exist depending on how
1109 wxWidgets was configured.
1111 virtual istream
& LoadObject(istream
& stream
);
1112 virtual wxInputStream
& LoadObject(wxInputStream
& stream
);
1116 Call with @true to mark the document as modified since the last save,
1117 @false otherwise. You may need to override this if your document view
1118 maintains its own record of being modified.
1122 virtual void Modify(bool modify
);
1125 Called when a view is added to or deleted from this document. The
1126 default implementation saves and deletes the document if no views exist
1127 (the last one has just been removed).
1129 virtual void OnChangedViewList();
1132 This virtual function is called when the document is being closed.
1134 The default implementation calls DeleteContents() (an empty
1135 implementation) and sets the modified flag to @false. You can override
1136 it to supply additional behaviour when the document is closed with
1139 Notice that previous wxWidgets versions used to call this function also
1140 from OnNewDocument(), rather counter-intuitively. This is no longer the
1141 case since wxWidgets 2.9.0.
1143 virtual bool OnCloseDocument();
1146 Called just after the document object is created to give it a chance to
1147 initialize itself. The default implementation uses the template
1148 associated with the document to create an initial view. If this
1149 function returns @false, the document is deleted.
1151 virtual bool OnCreate(const wxString
& path
, long flags
);
1154 Override this function if you want a different (or no) command
1155 processor to be created when the document is created. By default, it
1156 returns an instance of wxCommandProcessor.
1158 @see wxCommandProcessor
1160 virtual wxCommandProcessor
* OnCreateCommandProcessor();
1163 The default implementation calls OnSaveModified() and DeleteContents(),
1164 makes a default title for the document, and notifies the views that the
1165 filename (in fact, the title) has changed.
1167 virtual bool OnNewDocument();
1170 Constructs an input file stream for the given filename (which must not
1171 be empty), and calls LoadObject(). If LoadObject() returns @true, the
1172 document is set to unmodified; otherwise, an error message box is
1173 displayed. The document's views are notified that the filename has
1174 changed, to give windows an opportunity to update their titles. All of
1175 the document's views are then updated.
1177 virtual bool OnOpenDocument(const wxString
& filename
);
1180 Constructs an output file stream for the given filename (which must not
1181 be empty), and calls SaveObject(). If SaveObject() returns @true, the
1182 document is set to unmodified; otherwise, an error message box is
1185 virtual bool OnSaveDocument(const wxString
& filename
);
1188 If the document has been modified, prompts the user to ask if the
1189 changes should be changed. If the user replies Yes, the Save() function
1190 is called. If No, the document is marked as unmodified and the function
1191 succeeds. If Cancel, the function fails.
1193 virtual bool OnSaveModified();
1196 Removes the view from the document's list of views, and calls
1197 OnChangedViewList().
1199 virtual bool RemoveView(wxView
* view
);
1202 Saves the document by calling OnSaveDocument() if there is an
1203 associated filename, or SaveAs() if there is no filename.
1205 virtual bool Save();
1208 Prompts the user for a file to save to, and then calls
1211 virtual bool SaveAs();
1215 Override this function and call it from your own SaveObject() before
1216 streaming your own data. SaveObject() is called by the framework
1217 automatically when the document contents need to be saved.
1219 @note This version of SaveObject() may not exist depending on how
1220 wxWidgets was configured.
1222 virtual ostream
& SaveObject(ostream
& stream
);
1223 virtual wxOutputStream
& SaveObject(wxOutputStream
& stream
);
1227 Sets the command processor to be used for this document. The document
1228 will then be responsible for its deletion. Normally you should not call
1229 this; override OnCreateCommandProcessor() instead.
1231 @see wxCommandProcessor
1233 virtual void SetCommandProcessor(wxCommandProcessor
* processor
);
1236 Sets the document type name for this document. See the comment for
1237 @ref m_documentTypeName.
1239 void SetDocumentName(const wxString
& name
);
1242 Sets the pointer to the template that created the document. Should only
1243 be called by the framework.
1245 virtual void SetDocumentTemplate(wxDocTemplate
* templ
);
1248 Sets the filename for this document. Usually called by the framework.
1250 If @a notifyViews is @true, wxView::OnChangeFilename() is called for
1253 void SetFilename(const wxString
& filename
, bool notifyViews
= false);
1256 Sets the title for this document. The document title is used for an
1257 associated frame (if any), and is usually constructed by the framework
1260 void SetTitle(const wxString
& title
);
1263 Updates all views. If @a sender is non-@NULL, does not update this
1264 view. @a hint represents optional information to allow a view to
1265 optimize its update.
1267 virtual void UpdateAllViews(wxView
* sender
= NULL
, wxObject
* hint
= NULL
);
1271 This method is called by OnSaveDocument() to really save the document
1272 contents to the specified file.
1274 Base class version creates a file-based stream and calls SaveObject().
1275 Override this if you need to do something else or prefer not to use
1276 SaveObject() at all.
1278 virtual bool DoSaveDocument(const wxString
& file
);
1281 This method is called by OnOpenDocument() to really load the document
1282 contents from the specified file.
1284 Base class version creates a file-based stream and calls LoadObject().
1285 Override this if you need to do something else or prefer not to use
1286 LoadObject() at all.
1288 virtual bool DoOpenDocument(const wxString
& file
);
1291 A pointer to the command processor associated with this document.
1293 wxCommandProcessor
* m_commandProcessor
;
1296 Filename associated with this document ("" if none).
1298 wxString m_documentFile
;
1301 @true if the document has been modified, @false otherwise.
1303 bool m_documentModified
;
1306 A pointer to the template from which this document was created.
1308 wxDocTemplate
* m_documentTemplate
;
1311 Document title. The document title is used for an associated frame (if
1312 any), and is usually constructed by the framework from the filename.
1314 wxString m_documentTitle
;
1317 The document type name given to the wxDocTemplate constructor, copied
1318 to this variable when the document is created. If several document
1319 templates are created that use the same document type, this variable is
1320 used in wxDocManager::CreateView() to collate a list of alternative
1321 view types that can be used on this kind of document. Do not change the
1322 value of this variable.
1324 wxString m_documentTypeName
;
1327 List of wxView instances associated with this document.
1329 wxList m_documentViews
;
1335 @class wxFileHistory
1337 The wxFileHistory encapsulates a user interface convenience, the list of
1338 most recently visited files as shown on a menu (usually the File menu).
1340 wxFileHistory can manage one or more file menus. More than one menu may be
1341 required in an MDI application, where the file history should appear on
1342 each MDI child menu as well as the MDI parent frame.
1347 @see @ref overview_docview, wxDocManager
1349 class wxFileHistory
: public wxObject
1353 Constructor. Pass the maximum number of files that should be stored and
1356 @a idBase defaults to wxID_FILE1 and represents the id given to the
1357 first history menu item. Since menu items can't share the same ID you
1358 should change @a idBase (to one of your own defined IDs) when using
1359 more than one wxFileHistory in your application.
1361 wxFileHistory(size_t maxFiles
= 9, wxWindowID idBase
= wxID_FILE1

1375 Appends the files in the history list, to all menus managed by the file
1378 virtual void AddFilesToMenu();
1380 Appends the files in the history list, to the given menu only.
1382 virtual void AddFilesToMenu(wxMenu

1430 Saves the file history into the given config object. This must be
1431 called explicitly by the application.
1435 virtual void Save(wxConfigBase
& config
);
1438 Sets the base identifier for the range used for appending items.
1440 void SetBaseId(wxWindowID baseId
);
1443 Adds this menu to the list of those menus that are managed by this file
1444 history object. Also see AddFilesToMenu() for initializing the menu
1445 with filenames that are already in the history when this function is
1446 called, as this is not done automatically.
1448 virtual void UseMenu(wxMenu
* menu
);
1451 A character array of strings corresponding to the most recently opened
1454 char** m_fileHistory
;
1457 The number of files stored in the history array.

;
1462 The maximum number of files to be stored and displayed on the menu.
1464 size_t m_fileMaxFiles
;
1467 The file menu used to display the file history list (if enabled).
