28
29 @param manager
30 The document manager object which manages this template.
31 @param descr
32 A short description of what the template is for. This string will
33 be displayed in the file filter list of Windows file selectors.
34 @param filter
35 An appropriate file filter such as "*.txt".
36 @param dir
37 The default directory to use for file selectors.
38 @param ext
39 The default file extension (such as "txt").
40 @param docTypeName
41 A name that should be unique for a given type of document, used for
42 gathering a list of views relevant to a particular document.
43 @param viewTypeName
44 A name that should be unique for a given view.
45 @param docClassInfo
46 A pointer to the run-time document class information as returned by
47 the CLASSINFO() macro, e.g. CLASSINFO(MyDocumentClass). If this is
48 not supplied, you will need to derive a new wxDocTemplate class and
49 override the CreateDocument() member to return a new document
50 instance on demand.
51 @param viewClassInfo
52 A pointer to the run-time view class information as returned by the
53 CLASSINFO() macro, e.g. CLASSINFO(MyViewClass). If this is not
54 supplied, you will need to derive a new wxDocTemplate class and
55 override the CreateView() member to return a new view instance on
56 demand.
57 @param flags
58 A bit list of the following:
59 - wxTEMPLATE_VISIBLE - The template may be displayed to the
60 user in dialogs.
61 - wxTEMPLATE_INVISIBLE - The template may not be displayed to
62 the user in dialogs.
63 - wxDEFAULT_TEMPLATE_FLAGS - Defined as wxTEMPLATE_VISIBLE.
