  10     @class wxGridCellRenderer 
  12     This class is responsible for actually drawing the cell in the grid. You 
  13     may pass it to the wxGridCellAttr (below) to change the format of one given 
  14     cell or to wxGrid::SetDefaultRenderer() to change the view of all cells. 
  15     This is an abstract class, and you will normally use one of the predefined 
  16     derived classes or derive your own class from it.

  38         This pure virtual function has a default implementation which will 
  39         prepare the DC using the given attribute: it will draw the rectangle

 604     A grid table is responsible for storing the grid data and, indirectly, grid 
 605     cell attributes. The data can be stored in the way most convenient for the 
 606     application but has to be provided in string form to wxGrid. It is also 
 607     possible to provide cells values in other formats if appropriate, e.g. as 
 610     This base class is not quite abstract as it implements a trivial strategy 
 611     for storing the attributes by forwarding it to wxGridCellAttrProvider and

 613     of pure virtual methods which must be implemented in the derived classes.

 793     virtual void SetValueAsCustom(int row
, int col
, const wxString
& typeName
, 
 800         Called by the grid when the table is associated with it. 
 802         The default implementation stores the pointer and returns it from its 
 803         GetView() and so only makes sense if the table cannot be associated 
 804         with more than one grid at a time. 
 806     virtual void SetView(wxGrid 
*grid
); 
 809         Returns the last grid passed to SetView(). 
 811     virtual wxGrid 
*GetView() const; 
 815         @name Table Structure Modifiers 
 817         Notice that none of these functions are pure virtual as they don't have 
 818         to be implemented if the table structure is never modified after 
 819         creation, i.e. neither rows nor columns are never added or deleted but 
 820         that you do need to implement them if they are called, i.e. if your 
 821         code either calls them directly or uses the matching wxGrid methods, as 
 822         by default they simply do nothing which is definitely inappropriate. 
 827         Clear the table contents. 
 829         This method is used by wxGrid::ClearGrid(). 
 831     virtual void Clear(); 
 834         Insert additional rows into the table. 
 837             The position of the first new row. 
 839             The number of rows to insert. 
 841     virtual bool InsertRows(size_t pos 
= 0, size_t numRows 
= 1); 
 844         Append additional rows at the end of the table. 
 846         This method is provided in addition to InsertRows() as some data models 
 847         may only support appending rows to them but not inserting them at 
 848         arbitrary locations. In such case you may implement this method only 
 849         and leave InsertRows() unimplemented. 
 852             The number of rows to add. 
 854     virtual bool AppendRows(size_t numRows 
= 1); 
 857         Delete rows from the table. 
 860             The first row to delete. 
 862             The number of rows to delete. 
 864     virtual bool DeleteRows(size_t pos 
= 0, size_t numRows 
= 1); 
 867         Exactly the same as InsertRows() but for columns. 
 869     virtual bool InsertCols(size_t pos 
= 0, size_t numCols 
= 1); 
 872         Exactly the same as AppendRows() but for columns. 
 874     virtual bool AppendCols(size_t numCols 
= 1); 
 877         Exactly the same as DeleteRows() but for columns. 
 879     virtual bool DeleteCols(size_t pos 
= 0, size_t numCols 
= 1); 
 884         @name Table Row and Column Labels 
 886         By default the numbers are used for labeling rows and Latin letters for 
 887         labeling columns. If the table has more than 26 columns, the pairs of 
 888         letters are used starting from the 27-th one and so on, i.e. the 
 889         sequence of labels is A, B, ..., Z, AA, AB, ..., AZ, BA, ..., ..., ZZ, 
 895         Return the label of the specified row. 
 897     virtual wxString 
GetRowLabelValue(int row
); 
 900         Return the label of the specified column. 
 902     virtual wxString 
GetColLabelValue(int col
); 
 905         Set the given label for the specified row. 
 907         The default version does nothing, i.e. the label is not stored. You 
 908         must override this method in your derived class if you wish 
 909         wxGrid::SetRowLabelValue() to work. 
 911     virtual void SetRowLabelValue(int row
, const wxString
& label
); 
 914         Exactly the same as SetRowLabelValue() but for columns. 
 916     virtual void SetColLabelValue(int col
, const wxString
& label
); 
 922         @name Attributes Management 
 924         By default the attributes management is delegated to 
 925         wxGridCellAttrProvider class. You may override the methods in this 
 926         section to handle the attributes directly if, for example, they can be 
 927         computed from the cell values. 
 932         Associate this attributes provider with the table. 
 934         The table takes ownership of @a attrProvider pointer and will delete it 
 935         when it doesn't need it any more. The pointer can be @NULL, however 
 936         this won't disable attributes management in the table but will just 
 937         result in a default attributes being recreated the next time any of the 
 938         other functions in this section is called. To completely disable the 
 939         attributes support, should this be needed, you need to override 
 940         CanHaveAttributes() to return @false. 
 942     void SetAttrProvider(wxGridCellAttrProvider 
*attrProvider
); 
 945         Returns the attribute provider currently being used. 
 947         This function may return @NULL if the attribute provider hasn't been 
 948         neither associated with this table by SetAttrProvider() nor created on 
 949         demand by any other methods. 
 951     wxGridCellAttrProvider 
*GetAttrProvider() const; 
 954         Return the attribute for the given cell. 
 956         By default this function is simply forwarded to 
 957         wxGridCellAttrProvider::GetAttr() but it may be overridden to handle 
 958         attributes directly in the table. 
 960     virtual wxGridCellAttr 
*GetAttr(int row
, int col
, 
 961                                     wxGridCellAttr::wxAttrKind kind
); 
 964         Set attribute of the specified cell. 
 966         By default this function is simply forwarded to 
 967         wxGridCellAttrProvider::SetAttr(). 
 969         The table takes ownership of @a attr, i.e. will call DecRef() on it. 
 971     virtual void SetAttr(wxGridCellAttr
* attr
, int row
, int col
); 
 974         Set attribute of the specified row. 
 976         By default this function is simply forwarded to 
 977         wxGridCellAttrProvider::SetRowAttr(). 
 979         The table takes ownership of @a attr, i.e. will call DecRef() on it. 
 981     virtual void SetRowAttr(wxGridCellAttr 
*attr
, int row
); 
 984         Set attribute of the specified column. 
 986         By default this function is simply forwarded to 
 987         wxGridCellAttrProvider::SetColAttr(). 
 989         The table takes ownership of @a attr, i.e. will call DecRef() on it. 
 991     virtual void SetColAttr(wxGridCellAttr 
*attr
, int col
); 
 996         Returns true if this table supports attributes or false otherwise. 
 998         By default, the table automatically creates a wxGridCellAttrProvider 
 999         when this function is called if it had no attribute provider before and 
1002     virtual bool CanHaveAttributes(); 
1010     wxGrid and its related classes are used for displaying and editing tabular 
1011     data. They provide a rich set of features for display, editing, and 
1012     interacting with a variety of data sources. For simple applications, and to 
1013     help you get started, wxGrid is the only class you need to refer to 
1014     directly. It will set up default instances of the other classes and manage 
1015     them for you. For more complex applications you can derive your own classes 
1016     for custom grid views, grid data tables, cell editors and renderers. The 
1017     @ref overview_grid has examples of simple and more complex applications, 
1018     explains the relationship between the various grid classes and has a 
1019     summary of the keyboard shortcuts and mouse functions provided by wxGrid. 
1021     A wxGridTableBase class holds the actual data to be displayed by a wxGrid 
1022     class. One or more wxGrid classes may act as a view for one table class. 
1023     The default table class is called wxGridStringTable and holds an array of 
1024     strings. An instance of such a class is created by CreateGrid(). 
1026     wxGridCellRenderer is the abstract base class for rendereing contents in a 
1027     cell. The following renderers are predefined: 
1029     - wxGridCellBoolRenderer 
1030     - wxGridCellFloatRenderer 
1031     - wxGridCellNumberRenderer 
1032     - wxGridCellStringRenderer 
1034     The look of a cell can be further defined using wxGridCellAttr. An object 
1035     of this type may be returned by wxGridTableBase::GetAttr(). 
1037     wxGridCellEditor is the abstract base class for editing the value of a 
1038     cell. The following editors are predefined: 
1040     - wxGridCellBoolEditor 
1041     - wxGridCellChoiceEditor 
1042     - wxGridCellFloatEditor 
1043     - wxGridCellNumberEditor 
1044     - wxGridCellTextEditor 
1046     Please see wxGridEvent, wxGridSizeEvent, wxGridRangeSelectEvent, and 
1047     wxGridEditorCreatedEvent for the documentation of all event types you can 
1053     @see @ref overview_grid, wxGridUpdateLocker 
1055 class wxGrid

1060         Different selection modes supported by the grid. 
1062     enum wxGridSelectionModes
 
1065             The default selection mode allowing selection of the individual 
1066             cells as well as of the entire rows and columns. 
1071             The selection mode allowing the selection of the entire rows only. 
1073             The user won't be able to select any cells or columns in this mode. 
1078             The selection mode allowing the selection of the entire columns only. 
1080             The user won't be able to select any cells or rows in this mode. 
1087         @name Constructors and Initialization 
1092         Default constructor. 
1094         You must call Create() to really create the grid window and also call 
1095         CreateGrid() or SetTable() to initialize the grid contents. 
1099         Constructor creating the grid window. 
1101         You must call either CreateGrid() or SetTable() to initialize the grid 
1102         contents before using it. 
1104     wxGrid(wxWindow
* parent
, wxWindowID id
, 
1105            const wxPoint
& pos 
= wxDefaultPosition
, 
1106            const wxSize

1107            long style 
= wxWANTS_CHARS
, 
1108            const wxString
& name 
= wxGridNameStr
); 
1113         This will also destroy the associated grid table unless you passed a 
1114         table object to the grid and specified that the grid should not take 
1115         ownership of the table (see SetTable()). 
1120         Creates the grid window for an object initialized using the default 
1123         You must call either CreateGrid() or SetTable() to initialize the grid 
1124         contents before using it. 
1126     bool Create(wxWindow
* parent

1129                 long style 
= wxWANTS_CHARS
, 
1130                 const wxString
& name 
= wxGridNameStr
); 
1133         Creates a grid with the specified initial number of rows and columns. 
1135         Call this directly after the grid constructor. When you use this 
1136         function wxGrid will create and manage a simple table of string values 
1137         for you. All of the grid data will be stored in memory. 
1139         For applications with more complex data types or relationships, or for 
1140         dealing with very large datasets, you should derive your own grid table 
1141         class and pass a table object to the grid with SetTable(). 
1143     bool CreateGrid(int numRows
, int numCols
, 
1144                     wxGridSelectionModes selmode 
= wxGridSelectCells
); 
1147         Passes a pointer to a custom grid table to be used by the grid. 
1149         This should be called after the grid constructor and before using the 
1150         grid object. If @a takeOwnership is set to @true then the table will be 
1151         deleted by the wxGrid destructor. 
1153         Use this function instead of CreateGrid() when your application 
1154         involves complex or non-string data or data sets that are too large to 
1155         fit wholly in memory. 
1157     bool SetTable(wxGridTableBase

1171     void EnableGridLines(bool enable 
= true); 
1174         Returns the pen used for vertical grid lines. 
1176         This virtual function may be overridden in derived classes in order to 
1177         change the appearance of individual grid lines for the given column

1242         Sets the arguments to the current column label alignment values. 
1244         Horizontal alignment will be one of @c wxALIGN_LEFT, @c wxALIGN_CENTRE 
1245         or @c wxALIGN_RIGHT.

1295         Returns the specified row label. 
1297         The default grid table class provides numeric row labels. If you are 
1298         using a custom grid table you can override

1728         Register a new data type. 
1730         The data types allow to naturally associate specific renderers and 
1731         editors to the cells containing values of the given type. For example, 
1732         the grid automatically registers a data type with the name 
1733         @c wxGRID_VALUE_STRING which uses wxGridCellStringRenderer and 
1734         wxGridCellTextEditor as its renderer and editor respectively -- this is 
1735         the data type used by all the cells of the default wxGridStringTable, 
1736         so this renderer and editor are used by default for all grid cells. 
1738         However if a custom table returns @c wxGRID_VALUE_BOOL from its 
1739         wxGridTableBase::GetTypeName() method, then wxGridCellBoolRenderer and 
1740         wxGridCellBoolEditor are used for it because the grid also registers a 
1741         boolean data type with this name. 
1743         And as this mechanism is completely generic, you may register your own 
1744         data types using your own custom renderers and editors. Just remember 
1745         that the table must identify a cell as being of the given type for them 
1746         to be used for this cell. 
1749             Name of the new type. May be any string, but if the type name is 
1750             the same as the name of an already registered type, including one 
1751             of the standard ones (which are @c wxGRID_VALUE_STRING, @c 
1752             wxGRID_VALUE_BOOL, @c wxGRID_VALUE_NUMBER, @c wxGRID_VALUE_FLOAT 
1753             and @c wxGRID_VALUE_CHOICE), then the new registration information 
1754             replaces the previously used renderer and editor. 
1756             The renderer to use for the cells of this type. Its ownership is 
1757             taken by the grid, i.e. it will call DecRef() on this pointer when 
1758             it doesn't need it any longer. 
1760             The editor to use for the cells of this type. Its ownership is also

1771         This is called automatically when the grid cursor moves from the 
1772         current cell to a new cell. It is also a good idea to call this 
1773         function when closing a grid since any edits to the final cell location 
1774         will not be saved otherwise. 
1776     void SaveEditControlValue();

2783         suppressed. Each call to BeginBatch must be matched by a later call to 
2784         EndBatch(). Code that does a lot of grid modification can be enclosed 
2785         between BeginBatch() and EndBatch() calls to avoid screen flicker. The

2900         Returns the attribute for the given cell creating one if necessary. 
2902         If the cell already has an attribute, it is returned. Otherwise a new 
2903         attribute is created, associated with the cell and returned. In any

2919         at the specified position. 
2921         Notice that inserting the columns in the grid requires grid table 
2922         cooperation: when this method is called, grid object begins by 
2923         requesting the underlying grid table to insert new columns. If this is 
2924         successful the table notifies the grid and the grid updates the 
2925         display. For a default grid (one where you have called CreateGrid()) 
2926         this process is automatic. If you are using a custom grid table 
2927         (specified with SetTable()) then you must override 
2928         wxGridTableBase::InsertCols() in your derived table class.

3032     @class wxGridUpdateLocker 
3034     This small class can be used to prevent wxGrid from redrawing during its 
3035     lifetime by calling wxGrid::BeginBatch() in its constructor and 
3036     wxGrid::EndBatch() in its destructor. It is typically used in a function 
3037     performing several operations with a grid which would otherwise result in 
3038     flicker. For example: 
3043         m_grid = new wxGrid(this, ...); 
3045         wxGridUpdateLocker noUpdates(m_grid); 
3046         m_grid-AppendColumn(); 
3047         // ... many other operations with m_grid ... 
3050         // destructor called, grid refreshed 
3054     Using this class is easier and safer than calling wxGrid::BeginBatch() and 
3055     wxGrid::EndBatch() because you don't risk missing the call the latter (due 
3056     to an exception for example). 
3061 class wxGridUpdateLocker
 
3065         Creates an object preventing the updates of the specified @a grid. The 
3066         parameter could be @NULL in which case nothing is done. If @a grid is 
3067         non-@NULL then the grid must exist for longer than this 
3068         wxGridUpdateLocker object itself. 
3070         The default constructor could be followed by a call to Create() to set 
3071         the grid object later.
