171 @class wxComboCtrl
172
173 A combo control is a generic combobox that allows totally custom popup. In
174 addition it has other customization features. For instance, position and
175 size of the dropdown button can be changed.
176
177 @section comboctrl_custompopup Setting Custom Popup for wxComboCtrl
178
179 wxComboCtrl needs to be told somehow which control to use and this is done
180 by SetPopupControl(). However, we need something more than just a wxControl
181 in this method as, for example, we need to call
182 SetStringValue("initial text value") and wxControl doesn't have such
183 method. So we also need a wxComboPopup which is an interface which must be
184 implemented by a control to be usable as a popup.
185
186 We couldn't derive wxComboPopup from wxControl as this would make it
187 impossible to have a class deriving from a wxWidgets control and from it,
188 so instead it is just a mix-in.
189
190 Here's a minimal sample of wxListView popup:
191
192 @code
193 #include <wx/combo.h>
194 #include <wx/listctrl.h>
195
196 class wxListViewComboPopup : public wxListView, public wxComboPopup
197 {
198 public:
199 // Initialize member variables
200 virtual void Init()
201 {
202 m_value = -1;
203 }
204
205 // Create popup control
206 virtual bool Create(wxWindow* parent)
207 {
208 return wxListView::Create(parent,1,wxPoint(0,0),wxDefaultSize);
209 }
210
211 // Return pointer to the created control
212 virtual wxWindow *GetControl() { return this; }
213
214 // Translate string into a list selection
215 virtual void SetStringValue(const wxString& s)
216 {
217 int n = wxListView::FindItem(-1,s);
218 if ( n >= 0 && n < wxListView::GetItemCount() )
219 wxListView::Select(n);
220 }
221
222 // Get list selection as a string
223 virtual wxString GetStringValue() const
224 {
225 if ( m_value >= 0 )
226 return wxListView::GetItemText(m_value);
227 return wxEmptyString;
228 }
229
230 // Do mouse hot-tracking (which is typical in list popups)
231 void OnMouseMove(wxMouseEvent& event)
232 {
233 // TODO: Move selection to cursor
234 }
235
236 // On mouse left up, set the value and close the popup
237 void OnMouseClick(wxMouseEvent& WXUNUSED(event))
238 {
239 m_value = wxListView::GetFirstSelected();
240
241 // TODO: Send event as well
242
243 Dismiss();
244 }
245
246 protected:
247
248 int m_value; // current item index

260 Here's how you would create and populate it in a dialog constructor:
261
262 @code
263 wxComboCtrl* comboCtrl = new wxComboCtrl(this, wxID_ANY, wxEmptyString);
264
265 wxListViewComboPopup* popupCtrl = new wxListViewComboPopup();
266
267 comboCtrl->SetPopupControl(popupCtrl);
268
269 // Populate using wxListView methods
270 popupCtrl->InsertItem(popupCtrl->GetItemCount(), "First Item");
271 popupCtrl->InsertItem(popupCtrl->GetItemCount(), "Second Item");
272 popupCtrl->InsertItem(popupCtrl->GetItemCount(), "Third Item");
273 @endcode
274
275 @beginStyleTable
276 @style{wxCB_READONLY}
277 Text will not be editable.
278 @style{wxCB_SORT}
279 Sorts the entries in the list alphabetically.
280 @style{wxTE_PROCESS_ENTER}
281 The control will generate the event wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_ENTER
282 (otherwise pressing Enter key is either processed internally by the
283 control or used for navigation between dialog controls). Windows
284 only.
285 @style{wxCC_SPECIAL_DCLICK}
286 Double-clicking triggers a call to popup's OnComboDoubleClick.
287 Actual behaviour is defined by a derived class. For instance,
288 wxOwnerDrawnComboBox will cycle an item. This style only applies if
289 wxCB_READONLY is used as well.
290 @style{wxCC_STD_BUTTON}
291 Drop button will behave more like a standard push button.
292 @endStyleTable
293
294 @beginEventTable{wxCommandEvent}
295 @event{EVT_TEXT(id, func)}
296 Process a wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_UPDATED event, when the text changes.
297 @event{EVT_TEXT_ENTER(id, func)}
298 Process a wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_ENTER event, when RETURN is pressed in
299 the combo control.
