222 @class wxComboCtrl
223
224 A combo control is a generic combobox that allows totally custom popup. In
225 addition it has other customization features. For instance, position and
226 size of the dropdown button can be changed.
227
228 @section comboctrl_custompopup Setting Custom Popup for wxComboCtrl
229
230 wxComboCtrl needs to be told somehow which control to use and this is done
231 by SetPopupControl(). However, we need something more than just a wxControl
232 in this method as, for example, we need to call
233 SetStringValue("initial text value") and wxControl doesn't have such
234 method. So we also need a wxComboPopup which is an interface which must be
235 implemented by a control to be usable as a popup.
236
237 We couldn't derive wxComboPopup from wxControl as this would make it
238 impossible to have a class deriving from a wxWidgets control and from it,
239 so instead it is just a mix-in.
240
241 Here's a minimal sample of wxListView popup:
242
243 @code
244 #include <wx/combo.h>
245 #include <wx/listctrl.h>
246
247 class wxListViewComboPopup : public wxListView, public wxComboPopup
248 {
249 public:
250 // Initialize member variables
251 virtual void Init()
252 {
253 m_value = -1;
254 }
255
256 // Create popup control
257 virtual bool Create(wxWindow* parent)
258 {
259 return wxListView::Create(parent,1,wxPoint(0,0),wxDefaultSize);
260 }
261
262 // Return pointer to the created control
263 virtual wxWindow *GetControl() { return this; }
264
265 // Translate string into a list selection
266 virtual void SetStringValue(const wxString& s)
267 {
268 int n = wxListView::FindItem(-1,s);
269 if ( n >= 0 && n < wxListView::GetItemCount() )
270 wxListView::Select(n);
271 }
272
273 // Get list selection as a string
274 virtual wxString GetStringValue() const
275 {
276 if ( m_value >= 0 )
277 return wxListView::GetItemText(m_value);
278 return wxEmptyString;
279 }
280
281 // Do mouse hot-tracking (which is typical in list popups)
282 void OnMouseMove(wxMouseEvent& event)
283 {
284 // TODO: Move selection to cursor
285 }
286
287 // On mouse left up, set the value and close the popup
288 void OnMouseClick(wxMouseEvent& WXUNUSED(event))
289 {
290 m_value = wxListView::GetFirstSelected();
291
292 // TODO: Send event as well
293
294 Dismiss();
295 }
296

311 Here's how you would create and populate it in a dialog constructor:
312
313 @code
314 wxComboCtrl* comboCtrl = new wxComboCtrl(this, wxID_ANY, wxEmptyString);
315
316 wxListViewComboPopup* popupCtrl = new wxListViewComboPopup();
317
318 // It is important to call SetPopupControl() as soon as possible
319 comboCtrl->SetPopupControl(popupCtrl);
320
321 // Populate using wxListView methods
322 popupCtrl->InsertItem(popupCtrl->GetItemCount(), "First Item");
323 popupCtrl->InsertItem(popupCtrl->GetItemCount(), "Second Item");
324 popupCtrl->InsertItem(popupCtrl->GetItemCount(), "Third Item");
325 @endcode
326
327 @beginStyleTable
328 @style{wxCB_READONLY}
329 Text will not be editable.
330 @style{wxCB_SORT}
331 Sorts the entries in the list alphabetically.
332 @style{wxTE_PROCESS_ENTER}
333 The control will generate the event @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_ENTER
334 (otherwise pressing Enter key is either processed internally by the
335 control or used for navigation between dialog controls). Windows
336 only.
337 @style{wxCC_SPECIAL_DCLICK}
338 Double-clicking triggers a call to popup's OnComboDoubleClick.
339 Actual behaviour is defined by a derived class. For instance,
340 wxOwnerDrawnComboBox will cycle an item. This style only applies if
341 wxCB_READONLY is used as well.
342 @style{wxCC_STD_BUTTON}
343 Drop button will behave more like a standard push button.
344 @endStyleTable
345
346 @beginEventEmissionTable{wxCommandEvent}
347 @event{EVT_TEXT(id, func)}
348 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_UPDATED event, when the text changes.
349 @event{EVT_TEXT_ENTER(id, func)}
350 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_ENTER event, when RETURN is pressed in
351 the combo control.
352 @event{EVT_COMBOBOX_DROPDOWN(id, func)}
353 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_COMBOBOX_DROPDOWN event, which is generated
354 when the popup window is shown (drops down).
355 @event{EVT_COMBOBOX_CLOSEUP(id, func)}
356 Process a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_COMBOBOX_CLOSEUP event, which is generated
357 when the popup window of the combo control disappears (closes up).
358 You should avoid adding or deleting items in this event.
