 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

 202             m_value = -1;
 203         }

 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; }

 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         }

 259
 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.
