24 The different categories for a wxEvent; see wxEvent::GetEventCategory.
26 @note They are used as OR-combinable flags by wxEventLoopBase::YieldFor.
31 This is the category for those events which are generated to update
32 the appearance of the GUI but which (usually) do not comport data
33 processing, i.e. which do not provide input or output data
34 (e.g. size events, scroll events, etc).
35 They are events NOT directly generated by the user's input devices.
37 wxEVT_CATEGORY_UI
= 1,
40 This category groups those events which are generated directly from the
41 user through input devices like mouse and keyboard and usually result in
42 data to be processed from the application
43 (e.g. mouse clicks, key presses, etc).
45 wxEVT_CATEGORY_USER_INPUT

47 /// This category is for wxSocketEvent
48 wxEVT_CATEGORY_SOCKET
= 4,
50 /// This category is for wxTimerEvent
51 wxEVT_CATEGORY_TIMER
= 8,
54 This category is for any event used to send notifications from the
55 secondary threads to the main one or in general for notifications among
56 different threads (which may or may not be user-generated).
57 See e.g. wxThreadEvent.
59 wxEVT_CATEGORY_THREAD

62 This mask is used in wxEventLoopBase::YieldFor to specify that all event
63 categories should be processed.

73 An event is a structure holding information about an event passed to a
74 callback or member function.
76 wxEvent used to be a multipurpose event object, and is an abstract base class
77 for other event classes (see below).
79 For more information about events, see the @ref overview_events overview.
82 In wxPerl custom event classes should be derived from
83 @c Wx::PlEvent and @c Wx::PlCommandEvent.
89 @see wxCommandEvent, wxMouseEvent
91 class wxEvent
: public wxObject
97 Notice that events are usually created by wxWidgets itself and creating
98 e.g. a wxPaintEvent in your code and sending it to e.g. a wxTextCtrl
99 will not usually affect it at all as native controls have no specific
100 knowledge about wxWidgets events. However you may construct objects of
101 specific types and pass them to wxEvtHandler::ProcessEvent() if you
102 want to create your own custom control and want to process its events
103 in the same manner as the standard ones.
105 Also please notice that the order of parameters in this constructor is
106 different from almost all the derived classes which specify the event
107 type as the first argument.
110 The identifier of the object (window, timer, ...) which generated
113 The unique type of event, e.g. @c wxEVT_PAINT, @c wxEVT_SIZE or
114 @c wxEVT_COMMAND_BUTTON_CLICKED.
116 wxEvent(int id
= 0, wxEventType eventType
= wxEVT_NULL
);
119 Returns a copy of the event.
121 Any event that is posted to the wxWidgets event system for later action
122 (via wxEvtHandler::AddPendingEvent, wxEvtHandler::QueueEvent or wxPostEvent())
123 must implement this method.
125 All wxWidgets events fully implement this method, but any derived events
126 implemented by the user should also implement this method just in case they
127 (or some event derived from them) are ever posted.
129 All wxWidgets events implement a copy constructor, so the easiest way of
130 implementing the Clone function is to implement a copy constructor for
131 a new event (call it MyEvent) and then define the Clone function like this:
134 wxEvent *Clone() const { return new MyEvent(*this); }
137 virtual wxEvent
* Clone() const = 0;
140 Returns the object (usually a window) associated with the event, if any.
142 wxObject
* GetEventObject() const;
145 Returns the identifier of the given event type, such as @c wxEVT_COMMAND_BUTTON_CLICKED.
147 wxEventType
GetEventType() const;
150 Returns a generic category for this event.
151 wxEvent implementation returns @c wxEVT_CATEGORY_UI by default.
153 This function is used to selectively process events in wxEventLoopBase::YieldFor.
155 virtual wxEventCategory
GetEventCategory() const;
158 Returns the identifier associated with this event, such as a button command id.
163 Returns @true if the event handler should be skipped, @false otherwise.
165 bool GetSkipped() const;
168 Gets the timestamp for the event. The timestamp is the time in milliseconds
169 since some fixed moment (not necessarily the standard Unix Epoch, so only
170 differences between the timestamps and not their absolute values usually make sense).
173 wxWidgets returns a non-NULL timestamp only for mouse and key events
174 (see wxMouseEvent and wxKeyEvent).
176 long GetTimestamp() const;
179 Returns @true if the event is or is derived from wxCommandEvent else it returns @false.
181 @note exists only for optimization purposes.
183 bool IsCommandEvent() const;
186 Sets the propagation level to the given value (for example returned from an
187 earlier call to wxEvent::StopPropagation).
189 void ResumePropagation(int propagationLevel
);
192 Sets the originating object.
194 void SetEventObject(wxObject
* object
);
199 void SetEventType(wxEventType type
);
202 Sets the identifier associated with this event, such as a button command id.
207 Sets the timestamp for the event.
209 void SetTimestamp(long timeStamp
= 0);
212 Test if this event should be propagated or not, i.e. if the propagation level
213 is currently greater than 0.
215 bool ShouldPropagate() const;
218 This method can be used inside an event handler to control whether further
219 event handlers bound to this event will be called after the current one returns.
221 Without Skip() (or equivalently if Skip(@false) is used), the event will not
222 be processed any more. If Skip(@true) is called, the event processing system
223 continues searching for a further handler function for this event, even though
224 it has been processed already in the current handler.
226 In general, it is recommended to skip all non-command events to allow the
227 default handling to take place. The command events are, however, normally not
228 skipped as usually a single command such as a button click or menu item
229 selection must only be processed by one handler.
231 void Skip(bool skip
= true);
234 Stop the event from propagating to its parent window.
236 Returns the old propagation level value which may be later passed to
237 ResumePropagation() to allow propagating the event again.
239 int StopPropagation();
243 Indicates how many levels the event can propagate.
245 This member is protected and should typically only be set in the constructors
246 of the derived classes. It may be temporarily changed by StopPropagation()
247 and ResumePropagation() and tested with ShouldPropagate().
249 The initial value is set to either @c wxEVENT_PROPAGATE_NONE (by default)
250 meaning that the event shouldn't be propagated at all or to
251 @c wxEVENT_PROPAGATE_MAX (for command events) meaning that it should be
252 propagated as much as necessary.
254 Any positive number means that the event should be propagated but no more than
255 the given number of times. E.g. the propagation level may be set to 1 to
256 propagate the event to its parent only, but not to its grandparent.
258 int m_propagationLevel
;
262 @class wxEventBlocker
264 This class is a special event handler which allows to discard
265 any event (or a set of event types) directed to a specific window.
270 void MyWindow::DoSomething()
273 // block all events directed to this window while
274 // we do the 1000 FunctionWhichSendsEvents() calls
275 wxEventBlocker blocker(this);
277 for ( int i = 0; i 1000; i++ )
278 FunctionWhichSendsEvents(i);
280 } // ~wxEventBlocker called, old event handler is restored
282 // the event generated by this call will be processed:
283 FunctionWhichSendsEvents(0)
290 @see @ref overview_events_processing, wxEvtHandler
292 class wxEventBlocker
: public wxEvtHandler
296 Constructs the blocker for the given window and for the given event type.
298 If @a type is @c wxEVT_ANY, then all events for that window are blocked.
299 You can call Block() after creation to add other event types to the list
302 Note that the @a win window @b must remain alive until the
303 wxEventBlocker object destruction.
305 wxEventBlocker(wxWindow
* win
, wxEventType type
= -1);
308 Destructor. The blocker will remove itself from the chain of event handlers for
309 the window provided in the constructor, thus restoring normal processing of events.
311 virtual ~wxEventBlocker();
314 Adds to the list of event types which should be blocked the given @a eventType.
316 void Block(wxEventType eventType
);
324 A class that can handle events from the windowing system.
325 wxWindow is (and therefore all window classes are) derived from this class.
327 When events are received, wxEvtHandler invokes the method listed in the
328 event table using itself as the object. When using multiple inheritance
329 <b>it is imperative that the wxEvtHandler(-derived) class is the first
330 class inherited</b> such that the @c this pointer for the overall object
331 will be identical to the @c this pointer of the wxEvtHandler portion.
336 @see @ref overview_events_processing, wxEventBlocker, wxEventLoopBase
338 class wxEvtHandler
: public wxObject
, public wxTrackable
349 If the handler is part of a chain, the destructor will unlink itself
352 virtual ~wxEvtHandler();
356 @name Event queuing and processing
361 Queue event for a later processing.
363 This method is similar to ProcessEvent() but while the latter is
364 synchronous, i.e. the event is processed immediately, before the
365 function returns, this one is asynchronous and returns immediately
366 while the event will be processed at some later time (usually during
367 the next event loop iteration).
369 Another important difference is that this method takes ownership of the
370 @a event parameter, i.e. it will delete it itself. This implies that
371 the event should be allocated on the heap and that the pointer can't be
372 used any more after the function returns (as it can be deleted at any
375 QueueEvent() can be used for inter-thread communication from the worker
376 threads to the main thread, it is safe in the sense that it uses
377 locking internally and avoids the problem mentioned in AddPendingEvent()
378 documentation by ensuring that the @a event object is not used by the
379 calling thread any more. Care should still be taken to avoid that some
380 fields of this object are used by it, notably any wxString members of
381 the event object must not be shallow copies of another wxString object
382 as this would result in them still using the same string buffer behind
383 the scenes. For example:
385 void FunctionInAWorkerThread(const wxString& str)
387 wxCommandEvent* evt = new wxCommandEvent;
389 // NOT evt->SetString(str) as this would be a shallow copy
390 evt->SetString(str.c_str()); // make a deep copy
392 wxTheApp->QueueEvent( evt );
396 Note that you can use wxThreadEvent instead of wxCommandEvent
397 to avoid this problem:
399 void FunctionInAWorkerThread(const wxString& str)
404 // wxThreadEvent::Clone() makes sure that the internal wxString
405 // member is not shared by other wxString instances:
406 wxTheApp->QueueEvent( evt.Clone() );
410 Finally notice that this method automatically wakes up the event loop
411 if it is currently idle by calling ::wxWakeUpIdle() so there is no need
412 to do it manually when using it.
417 A heap-allocated event to be queued, QueueEvent() takes ownership
418 of it. This parameter shouldn't be @c NULL.
420 virtual void QueueEvent(wxEvent
*event
);
423 Post an event to be processed later.
425 This function is similar to QueueEvent() but can't be used to post
426 events from worker threads for the event objects with wxString fields
427 (i.e. in practice most of them) because of an unsafe use of the same
428 wxString object which happens because the wxString field in the
429 original @a event object and its copy made internally by this function
430 share the same string buffer internally. Use QueueEvent() to avoid
433 A copy of @a event is made by the function, so the original can be deleted
434 as soon as function returns (it is common that the original is created
435 on the stack). This requires that the wxEvent::Clone() method be
436 implemented by event so that it can be duplicated and stored until it
440 Event to add to the pending events queue.
442 virtual void AddPendingEvent(const wxEvent
& event
);
445 Processes an event, searching event tables and calling zero or more suitable
446 event handler function(s).
448 Normally, your application would not call this function: it is called in the
449 wxWidgets implementation to dispatch incoming user interface events to the
450 framework (and application).
452 However, you might need to call it if implementing new functionality
453 (such as a new control) where you define new event types, as opposed to
454 allowing the user to override virtual functions.
456 Notice that you don't usually need to override ProcessEvent() to
457 customize the event handling, overriding the specially provided
458 TryBefore() and TryAfter() functions is usually enough. For example,
459 wxMDIParentFrame may override TryBefore() to ensure that the menu
460 events are processed in the active child frame before being processed
461 in the parent frame itself.
463 The normal order of event table searching is as follows:
464 -# wxApp::FilterEvent() is called. If it returns anything but @c -1
465 (default) the processing stops here.
466 -# TryBefore() is called (this is where wxValidator are taken into
467 account for wxWindow objects). If this returns @true, the function exits.
468 -# If the object is disabled (via a call to wxEvtHandler::SetEvtHandlerEnabled)
469 the function skips to step (7).
470 -# Dynamic event table of the handlers bound using Bind<>() is
471 searched. If a handler is found, it is executed and the function
472 returns @true unless the handler used wxEvent::Skip() to indicate
473 that it didn't handle the event in which case the search continues.
474 -# Static events table of the handlers bound using event table
475 macros is searched for this event handler. If this fails, the base
476 class event table table is tried, and so on until no more tables
477 exist or an appropriate function was found. If a handler is found,
478 the same logic as in the previous step applies.
479 -# The search is applied down the entire chain of event handlers (usually the
480 chain has a length of one). This chain can be formed using wxEvtHandler::SetNextHandler():
481 @image html overview_events_chain.png
482 (referring to the image, if @c A->ProcessEvent is called and it doesn't handle
483 the event, @c B->ProcessEvent will be called and so on...).
484 Note that in the case of wxWindow you can build a stack of event handlers
485 (see wxWindow::PushEventHandler() for more info).
486 If any of the handlers of the chain return @true, the function exits.
487 -# TryAfter() is called: for the wxWindow object this may propagate the
488 event to the window parent (recursively). If the event is still not
489 processed, ProcessEvent() on wxTheApp object is called as the last
492 Notice that steps (2)-(6) are performed in ProcessEventLocally()
493 which is called by this function.
498 @true if a suitable event handler function was found and executed,
499 and the function did not call wxEvent::Skip.
501 @see SearchEventTable()
503 virtual bool ProcessEvent(wxEvent
& event
);
506 Try to process the event in this handler and all those chained to it.
508 As explained in ProcessEvent() documentation, the event handlers may be
509 chained in a doubly-linked list. This function tries to process the
510 event in this handler (including performing any pre-processing done in
511 TryBefore(), e.g. applying validators) and all those following it in
512 the chain until the event is processed or the chain is exhausted.
514 This function is called from ProcessEvent() and, in turn, calls
515 TryThis() for each handler in turn. It is not virtual and so cannot be
516 overridden but can, and should, be called to forward an event to
517 another handler instead of ProcessEvent() which would result in a
518 duplicate call to TryAfter(), e.g. resulting in all unprocessed events
519 being sent to the application object multiple times.
526 @true if this handler of one of those chained to it processed the
529 bool ProcessEventLocally(wxEvent
& event
);
532 Processes an event by calling ProcessEvent() and handles any exceptions
533 that occur in the process.
534 If an exception is thrown in event handler, wxApp::OnExceptionInMainLoop is called.
539 @return @true if the event was processed, @false if no handler was found
540 or an exception was thrown.
542 @see wxWindow::HandleWindowEvent
544 bool SafelyProcessEvent(wxEvent
& event
);
547 Processes the pending events previously queued using QueueEvent() or
548 AddPendingEvent(); you must call this function only if you are sure
549 there are pending events for this handler, otherwise a @c wxCHECK
552 The real processing still happens in ProcessEvent() which is called by this
555 Note that this function needs a valid application object (see
556 wxAppConsole::GetInstance()) because wxApp holds the list of the event
557 handlers with pending events and this function manipulates that list.
559 void ProcessPendingEvents();
562 Deletes all events queued on this event handler using QueueEvent() or
565 Use with care because the events which are deleted are (obviously) not
566 processed and this may have unwanted consequences (e.g. user actions events
569 void DeletePendingEvents();
572 Searches the event table, executing an event handler function if an appropriate
576 Event table to be searched.
578 Event to be matched against an event table entry.
580 @return @true if a suitable event handler function was found and
581 executed, and the function did not call wxEvent::Skip.
583 @remarks This function looks through the object's event table and tries
584 to find an entry that will match the event.
585 An entry will match if:
586 @li The event type matches, and
587 @li the identifier or identifier range matches, or the event table
588 entry's identifier is zero.
590 If a suitable function is called but calls wxEvent::Skip, this
591 function will fail, and searching will continue.
593 @todo this function in the header is listed as an "implementation only" function;
594 are we sure we want to document it?

605 @name Connecting and disconnecting
610 Connects the given function dynamically with the event handler, id and
613 Notice that Bind() provides a more flexible and safer way to do the
614 same thing as Connect(), please use it in any new code -- while
615 Connect() is not formally deprecated due to its existing widespread
616 usage, it has no advantages compared to Bind().
618 This is an alternative to the use of static event tables. It is more
619 flexible as it allows to connect events generated by some object to an
620 event handler defined in a different object of a different class (which
621 is impossible to do directly with the event tables -- the events can be
622 only handled in another object if they are propagated upwards to it).
623 Do make sure to specify the correct @a eventSink when connecting to an
624 event of a different object.

627 of this function and the @ref page_samples_event sample for usage
630 This specific overload allows you to connect an event handler to a @e range

778 This offers basically the same functionality as Connect(), but it is
779 more flexible as it also allows you to use ordinary functions and
780 arbitrary functors as event handlers. It is also less restrictive then
781 Connect() because you can use an arbitrary method as an event handler,
782 where as Connect() requires a wxEvtHandler derived handler.

995 Enables or disables the event handler.
998 @true if the event handler is to be enabled, @false if it is to be disabled.
1000 @remarks You can use this function to avoid having to remove the event
1001 handler from the chain, for example when implementing a
1002 dialog editor and changing from edit to test mode.
1004 @see GetEvtHandlerEnabled()
1006 void SetEvtHandlerEnabled(bool enabled
);
1009 Sets the pointer to the next handler.
1012 See ProcessEvent() for more info about how the chains of event handlers
1013 are internally used.
1014 Also remember that wxEvtHandler uses double-linked lists and thus if you
1015 use this function, you should also call SetPreviousHandler() on the
1016 argument passed to this function:
1018 handlerA->SetNextHandler(handlerB);
1019 handlerB->SetPreviousHandler(handlerA);
1023 The event handler to be set as the next handler.

1035 The event handler to be set as the previous handler.
1038 @see @ref overview_events_processing
1040 virtual void SetPreviousHandler(wxEvtHandler
* handler
);
1043 Unlinks this event handler from the chain it's part of (if any);
1044 then links the "previous" event handler to the "next" one
1045 (so that the chain won't be interrupted).
1047 E.g. if before calling Unlink() you have the following chain:
1048 @image html evthandler_unlink_before.png
1049 then after calling @c B->Unlink() you'll have:
1050 @image html evthandler_unlink_after.png
1057 Returns @true if the next and the previous handler pointers of this
1058 event handler instance are @NULL.

1070 Method called by ProcessEvent() before examining this object event
1073 This method can be overridden to hook into the event processing logic
1074 as early as possible. You should usually call the base class version
1075 when overriding this method, even if wxEvtHandler itself does nothing
1076 here, some derived classes do use this method, e.g. wxWindow implements
1077 support for wxValidator in it.
1081 class MyClass : public BaseClass // inheriting from wxEvtHandler
1085 virtual bool TryBefore(wxEvent& event)
1087 if ( MyPreProcess(event) )
1090 return BaseClass::TryBefore(event);
1097 virtual bool TryBefore(wxEvent
& event
);
1100 Try to process the event in this event handler.
1102 This method is called from ProcessEventLocally() and thus, indirectly,
1103 from ProcessEvent(), please see the detailed description of the event
1104 processing logic there.
1106 It is currently @em not virtual and so may not be overridden.
1113 @true if this object itself defines a handler for this event and
1114 the handler didn't skip the event.
1116 bool TryThis(wxEvent
& event
);
1119 Method called by ProcessEvent() as last resort.
1121 This method can be overridden to implement post-processing for the
1122 events which were not processed anywhere else.
1124 The base class version handles forwarding the unprocessed events to
1125 wxApp at wxEvtHandler level and propagating them upwards the window
1126 child-parent chain at wxWindow level and so should usually be called
1127 when overriding this method:
1129 class MyClass : public BaseClass // inheriting from wxEvtHandler
1133 virtual bool TryAfter(wxEvent& event)
1135 if ( BaseClass::TryAfter(event) )
1138 return MyPostProcess(event);
1145 virtual bool TryAfter(wxEvent
& event
);
1150 Flags for categories of keys.
1152 These values are used by wxKeyEvent::IsKeyInCategory(). They may be
1153 combined via the bitwise operators |, &, and ~.
1157 enum wxKeyCategoryFlags
1159 /// arrow keys, on and off numeric keypads
1162 /// page up and page down keys, on and off numeric keypads
1163 WXK_CATEGORY_PAGING
,
1165 /// home and end keys, on and off numeric keypads
1168 /// tab key, on and off numeric keypads
1171 /// backspace and delete keys, on and off numeric keypads
1174 /// union of WXK_CATEGORY_ARROW, WXK_CATEGORY_PAGING, and WXK_CATEGORY_JUMP categories
1175 WXK_CATEGORY_NAVIGATION
1182 This event class contains information about key press and release events.
1184 The main information carried by this event is the key being pressed or
1185 released. It can be accessed using either GetKeyCode() function or
1186 GetUnicodeKey(). For the printable characters, the latter should be used as
1187 it works for any keys, including non-Latin-1 characters that can be entered
1188 when using national keyboard layouts. GetKeyCode() should be used to handle
1189 special characters (such as cursor arrows keys or @c HOME or @c INS and so
1190 on) which correspond to ::wxKeyCode enum elements above the @c WXK_START
1191 constant. While GetKeyCode() also returns the character code for Latin-1
1192 keys for compatibility, it doesn't work for Unicode characters in general
1193 and will return @c WXK_NONE for any non-Latin-1 ones. For this reason, it's
1194 recommended to always use GetUnicodeKey() and only fall back to GetKeyCode()
1195 if GetUnicodeKey() returned @c WXK_NONE meaning that the event corresponds
1196 to a non-printable special keys.
1198 While both of these functions can be used with the events of @c
1199 wxEVT_KEY_DOWN, @c wxEVT_KEY_UP and @c wxEVT_CHAR types, the values
1200 returned by them are different for the first two events and the last one.
1201 For the latter, the key returned corresponds to the character that would
1202 appear in e.g. a text zone if the user pressed the key in it. As such, its
1203 value depends on the current state of the Shift key and, for the letters,
1204 on the state of Caps Lock modifier. For example, if @c A key is pressed
1205 without Shift being held down, wxKeyEvent of type @c wxEVT_CHAR generated
1206 for this key press will return (from either GetKeyCode() or GetUnicodeKey()
1207 as their meanings coincide for ASCII characters) key code of 97
1208 corresponding the ASCII value of @c a. And if the same key is pressed but
1209 with Shift being held (or Caps Lock being active), then the key could would
1210 be 65, i.e. ASCII value of capital @c A.
1212 However for the key down and up events the returned key code will instead
1213 be @c A independently of the state of the modifier keys i.e. it depends
1214 only on physical key being pressed and is not translated to its logical
1215 representation using the current keyboard state. Such untranslated key
1216 codes are defined as follows:
1217 - For the letters they correspond to the @e upper case value of the
1219 - For the other alphanumeric keys (e.g. @c 7 or @c +), the untranslated
1220 key code corresponds to the character produced by the key when it is
1221 pressed without Shift. E.g. in standard US keyboard layout the
1222 untranslated key code for the key @c =/+ in the upper right corner of
1223 the keyboard is 61 which is the ASCII value of @c =.
1224 - For the rest of the keys (i.e. special non-printable keys) it is the
1225 same as the normal key code as no translation is used anyhow.
1227 Notice that the first rule applies to all Unicode letters, not just the
1228 usual Latin-1 ones. However for non-Latin-1 letters only GetUnicodeKey()
1229 can be used to retrieve the key code as GetKeyCode() just returns @c
1230 WXK_NONE in this case.
1232 To summarize: you should handle @c wxEVT_CHAR if you need the translated
1233 key and @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN if you only need the value of the key itself,
1234 independent of the current keyboard state.
1236 @note Not all key down events may be generated by the user. As an example,
1237 @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN with @c = key code can be generated using the
1238 standard US keyboard layout but not using the German one because the @c
1239 = key corresponds to Shift-0 key combination in this layout and the key
1240 code for it is @c 0, not @c =. Because of this you should avoid
1241 requiring your users to type key events that might be impossible to
1242 enter on their keyboard.
1245 Another difference between key and char events is that another kind of
1246 translation is done for the latter ones when the Control key is pressed:
1247 char events for ASCII letters in this case carry codes corresponding to the
1248 ASCII value of Ctrl-Latter, i.e. 1 for Ctrl-A, 2 for Ctrl-B and so on until
1249 26 for Ctrl-Z. This is convenient for terminal-like applications and can be
1250 completely ignored by all the other ones (if you need to handle Ctrl-A it
1251 is probably a better idea to use the key event rather than the char one).
1252 Notice that currently no translation is done for the presses of @c [, @c
1253 \\, @c ], @c ^ and @c _ keys which might be mapped to ASCII values from 27
1256 Finally, modifier keys only generate key events but no char events at all.
1257 The modifiers keys are @c WXK_SHIFT, @c WXK_CONTROL, @c WXK_ALT and various
1258 @c WXK_WINDOWS_XXX from ::wxKeyCode enum.
1260 Modifier keys events are special in one additional aspect: usually the
1261 keyboard state associated with a key press is well defined, e.g.
1262 wxKeyboardState::ShiftDown() returns @c true only if the Shift key was held
1263 pressed when the key that generated this event itself was pressed. There is
1264 an ambiguity for the key press events for Shift key itself however. By
1265 convention, it is considered to be already pressed when it is pressed and
1266 already released when it is released. In other words, @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN
1267 event for the Shift key itself will have @c wxMOD_SHIFT in GetModifiers()
1268 and ShiftDown() will return true while the @c wxEVT_KEY_UP event for Shift
1269 itself will not have @c wxMOD_SHIFT in its modifiers and ShiftDown() will
1273 @b Tip: You may discover the key codes and modifiers generated by all the
1274 keys on your system interactively by running the @ref
1275 page_samples_keyboard wxWidgets sample and pressing some keys in it.
1277 @note If a key down (@c EVT_KEY_DOWN) event is caught and the event handler
1278 does not call @c event.Skip() then the corresponding char event
1279 (@c EVT_CHAR) will not happen. This is by design and enables the
1280 programs that handle both types of events to avoid processing the
1281 same key twice. As a consequence, if you do not want to suppress the
1282 @c wxEVT_CHAR events for the keys you handle, always call @c
1283 event.Skip() in your @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN handler. Not doing may also
1284 prevent accelerators defined using this key from working.
1286 @note If a key is maintained in a pressed state, you will typically get a
1287 lot of (automatically generated) key down events but only one key up
1288 one at the end when the key is released so it is wrong to assume that
1289 there is one up event corresponding to each down one.
1291 @note For Windows programmers: The key and char events in wxWidgets are
1292 similar to but slightly different from Windows @c WM_KEYDOWN and
1293 @c WM_CHAR events. In particular, Alt-x combination will generate a
1294 char event in wxWidgets (unless it is used as an accelerator) and
1295 almost all keys, including ones without ASCII equivalents, generate
1299 @beginEventTable{wxKeyEvent}
1300 @event{EVT_KEY_DOWN(func)}
1301 Process a @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN event (any key has been pressed).
1302 @event{EVT_KEY_UP(func)}
1303 Process a @c wxEVT_KEY_UP event (any key has been released).
1304 @event{EVT_CHAR(func)}
1305 Process a @c wxEVT_CHAR event.
1306 @event{EVT_CHAR_HOOK(func)}
1307 Process a @c wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK event which is sent to the active
1308 wxTopLevelWindow (i.e. the one containing the currently focused window)
1309 or wxApp global object if there is no active window before any other
1310 keyboard events are generated giving the parent window the opportunity
1311 to intercept all the keyboard entry. If the event is handled, i.e. the
1312 handler doesn't call wxEvent::Skip(), no further keyboard events are
1313 generated. Notice that this event is currently not generated by
1317 @see wxKeyboardState
1322 class wxKeyEvent
: public wxEvent
,
1323 public wxKeyboardState
1328 Currently, the only valid event types are @c wxEVT_CHAR and @c wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK.
1330 wxKeyEvent(wxEventType keyEventType
= wxEVT_NULL
);
1333 Returns the key code of the key that generated this event.
1335 ASCII symbols return normal ASCII values, while events from special
1336 keys such as "left cursor arrow" (@c WXK_LEFT) return values outside of
1337 the ASCII range. See ::wxKeyCode for a full list of the virtual key
1340 Note that this method returns a meaningful value only for special
1341 non-alphanumeric keys or if the user entered a character that can be
1342 represented in current locale's default charset. Otherwise, e.g. if the
1343 user enters a Japanese character in a program not using Japanese
1344 locale, this method returns @c WXK_NONE and GetUnicodeKey() should be
1345 used to obtain the corresponding Unicode character.
1347 Using GetUnicodeKey() is in general the right thing to do if you are
1348 interested in the characters typed by the user, GetKeyCode() should be
1349 only used for special keys (for which GetUnicodeKey() returns @c
1350 WXK_NONE). To handle both kinds of keys you might write:
1352 void MyHandler::OnChar(wxKeyEvent& event)
1354 if ( event.GetUnicodeKey() != WXK_NONE )
1356 // It's a printable character
1357 wxLogMessage("You pressed '%c'", event.GetUnicodeKey());
1361 // It's a special key, deal with all the known ones:

1423 Under MSW, the raw flags are just the value of @c lParam parameter of
1424 the corresponding message.
1426 Under GTK, the raw flags contain the @c hardware_keycode field of the
1427 corresponding GDK event.
1429 Under OS X, the raw flags contain the modifiers state.

1677 This event is sent just after the actual window associated with a wxWindow

1710 A paint event is sent when a window's contents needs to be repainted.
1712 The handler of this event must create a wxPaintDC object and use it for
1713 painting the window contents. For example:
1715 void MyWindow::OnPaint(wxPaintEvent& event)
1723 Notice that you must @e not create other kinds of wxDC (e.g. wxClientDC or
1724 wxWindowDC) in EVT_PAINT handlers and also don't create wxPaintDC outside
1725 of this event handlers.
1728 You can optimize painting by retrieving the rectangles that have been damaged
1729 and only repainting these. The rectangles are in terms of the client area,
1730 and are unscrolled, so you will need to do some calculations using the current
1731 view position to obtain logical, scrolled units.
1732 Here is an example of using the wxRegionIterator class:
1734 // Called when window needs to be repainted.
1735 void MyWindow::OnPaint(wxPaintEvent& event)
1739 // Find Out where the window is scrolled to
1740 int vbX,vbY; // Top left corner of client
1741 GetViewStart(&vbX,&vbY);
1743 int vX,vY,vW,vH; // Dimensions of client area in pixels
1744 wxRegionIterator upd(GetUpdateRegion()); // get the update rect list
1753 // Alternatively we can do this:
1754 // wxRect rect(upd.GetRect());
1756 // Repaint this rectangle
1765 Please notice that in general it is impossible to change the drawing of a
1766 standard control (such as wxButton) and so you shouldn't attempt to handle
1767 paint events for them as even if it might work on some platforms, this is
1768 inherently not portable and won't work everywhere.

1838 @class wxUpdateUIEvent
1840 This class is used for pseudo-events which are called by wxWidgets
1841 to give an application the chance to update various user interface elements.
1843 Without update UI events, an application has to work hard to check/uncheck,
1844 enable/disable, show/hide, and set the text for elements such as menu items
1845 and toolbar buttons. The code for doing this has to be mixed up with the code
1846 that is invoked when an action is invoked for a menu item or button.
1848 With update UI events, you define an event handler to look at the state of the
1849 application and change UI elements accordingly. wxWidgets will call your member
1850 functions in idle time, so you don't have to worry where to call this code.
1852 In addition to being a clearer and more declarative method, it also means you don't
1853 have to worry whether you're updating a toolbar or menubar identifier. The same
1854 handler can update a menu item and toolbar button, if the identifier is the same.
1855 Instead of directly manipulating the menu or button, you call functions in the event
1856 object, such as wxUpdateUIEvent::Check. wxWidgets will determine whether such a
1857 call has been made, and which UI element to update.
1859 These events will work for popup menus as well as menubars. Just before a menu is
1860 popped up, wxMenu::UpdateUI is called to process any UI events for the window that
1863 If you find that the overhead of UI update processing is affecting your application,
1864 you can do one or both of the following:
1865 @li Call wxUpdateUIEvent::SetMode with a value of wxUPDATE_UI_PROCESS_SPECIFIED,
1866 and set the extra style wxWS_EX_PROCESS_UI_UPDATES for every window that should
1867 receive update events. No other windows will receive update events.
1868 @li Call wxUpdateUIEvent::SetUpdateInterval with a millisecond value to set the delay
1869 between updates. You may need to call wxWindow::UpdateWindowUI at critical points,
1870 for example when a dialog is about to be shown, in case the user sees a slight
1871 delay before windows are updated.
1873 Note that although events are sent in idle time, defining a wxIdleEvent handler
1874 for a window does not affect this because the events are sent from wxWindow::OnInternalIdle
1875 which is always called in idle time.
1877 wxWidgets tries to optimize update events on some platforms.
1878 On Windows and GTK+, events for menubar items are only sent when the menu is about
1879 to be shown, and not in idle time.

1906 This function looks at the mode used (see wxUpdateUIEvent::SetMode),
1907 the wxWS_EX_PROCESS_UI_UPDATES flag in @a window, the time update events
1908 were last sent in idle time, and the update interval, to determine whether
1909 events should be sent to this window now. By default this will always
1910 return @true because the update mode is initially wxUPDATE_UI_PROCESS_ALL
1911 and the interval is set to 0; so update events will be sent as often as
1912 possible. You can reduce the frequency that events are sent by changing the
1913 mode and/or setting an update interval.

2037 @class wxClipboardTextEvent
2039 This class represents the events generated by a control (typically a
2040 wxTextCtrl but other windows can generate these events as well) when its
2041 content gets copied or cut to, or pasted from the clipboard.
2043 There are three types of corresponding events @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_COPY,
2044 @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_CUT and @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_PASTE.
2046 If any of these events is processed (without being skipped) by an event
2047 handler, the corresponding operation doesn't take place which allows to
2048 prevent the text from being copied from or pasted to a control. It is also
2049 possible to examine the clipboard contents in the PASTE event handler and
2050 transform it in some way before inserting in a control -- for example,
2051 changing its case or removing invalid characters.
2053 Finally notice that a CUT event is always preceded by the COPY event which
2054 makes it possible to only process the latter if it doesn't matter if the
2055 text was copied or cut.
2058 These events are currently only generated by wxTextCtrl under GTK+.
2059 They are generated by all controls under Windows.
2061 @beginEventTable{wxClipboardTextEvent}
2062 @event{EVT_TEXT_COPY(id, func)}
2063 Some or all of the controls content was copied to the clipboard.

2077 class wxClipboardTextEvent
: public wxCommandEvent
2083 wxClipboardTextEvent(wxEventType commandType
= wxEVT_NULL
, int id
= 0);
2091 This event class contains information about the events generated by the mouse:
2092 they include mouse buttons press and release events and mouse move events.
2094 All mouse events involving the buttons use @c wxMOUSE_BTN_LEFT for the
2095 left mouse button, @c wxMOUSE_BTN_MIDDLE for the middle one and
2096 @c wxMOUSE_BTN_RIGHT for the right one. And if the system supports more
2097 buttons, the @c wxMOUSE_BTN_AUX1 and @c wxMOUSE_BTN_AUX2 events
2098 can also be generated. Note that not all mice have even a middle button so a
2099 portable application should avoid relying on the events from it (but the right
2100 button click can be emulated using the left mouse button with the control key
2101 under Mac platforms with a single button mouse).
2103 For the @c wxEVT_ENTER_WINDOW and @c wxEVT_LEAVE_WINDOW events
2104 purposes, the mouse is considered to be inside the window if it is in the
2105 window client area and not inside one of its children. In other words, the
2106 parent window receives @c wxEVT_LEAVE_WINDOW event not only when the
2107 mouse leaves the window entirely but also when it enters one of its children.
2109 The position associated with a mouse event is expressed in the window
2110 coordinates of the window which generated the event, you can use
2111 wxWindow::ClientToScreen() to convert it to screen coordinates and possibly
2112 call wxWindow::ScreenToClient() next to convert it to window coordinates of
2115 @note Note that under Windows CE mouse enter and leave events are not natively
2116 supported by the system but are generated by wxWidgets itself. This has several
2117 drawbacks: the LEAVE_WINDOW event might be received some time after the mouse
2118 left the window and the state variables for it may have changed during this time.
2120 @note Note the difference between methods like wxMouseEvent::LeftDown and
2121 the inherited wxMouseState::LeftIsDown: the former returns @true when
2122 the event corresponds to the left mouse button click while the latter
2123 returns @true if the left mouse button is currently being pressed.
2124 For example, when the user is dragging the mouse you can use
2125 wxMouseEvent::LeftIsDown to test whether the left mouse button is
2126 (still) depressed. Also, by convention, if wxMouseEvent::LeftDown
2127 returns @true, wxMouseEvent::LeftIsDown will also return @true in
2128 wxWidgets whatever the underlying GUI behaviour is (which is
2129 platform-dependent). The same applies, of course, to other mouse

2134 @event{EVT_LEFT_DOWN(func)}
2135 Process a @c wxEVT_LEFT_DOWN event. The handler of this event should normally

2571 class wxCommandEvent
: public wxEvent
2577 wxCommandEvent(wxEventType commandEventType
= wxEVT_NULL
, int id
= 0);
2580 Returns client data pointer for a listbox or choice selection event
2581 (not valid for a deselection).
2583 void* GetClientData() const;
2586 Returns client object pointer for a listbox or choice selection event
2587 (not valid for a deselection).
2589 wxClientData
* GetClientObject() const;
2592 Returns extra information dependant on the event objects type.
2594 If the event comes from a listbox selection, it is a boolean
2595 determining whether the event was a selection (@true) or a
2596 deselection (@false). A listbox deselection only occurs for
2597 multiple-selection boxes, and in this case the index and string values
2598 are indeterminate and the listbox must be examined by the application.
2600 long GetExtraLong() const;
2603 Returns the integer identifier corresponding to a listbox, choice or
2604 radiobox selection (only if the event was a selection, not a deselection),
2605 or a boolean value representing the value of a checkbox.
2610 Returns item index for a listbox or choice selection event (not valid for
2613 int GetSelection() const;
2616 Returns item string for a listbox or choice selection event. If one
2617 or several items have been deselected, returns the index of the first
2618 deselected item. If some items have been selected and others deselected
2619 at the same time, it will return the index of the first selected item.
2621 wxString
GetString() const;
2624 This method can be used with checkbox and menu events: for the checkboxes, the
2625 method returns @true for a selection event and @false for a deselection one.
2626 For the menu events, this method indicates if the menu item just has become
2627 checked or unchecked (and thus only makes sense for checkable menu items).
2629 Notice that this method can not be used with wxCheckListBox currently.
2631 bool IsChecked() const;
2634 For a listbox or similar event, returns @true if it is a selection, @false
2635 if it is a deselection. If some items have been selected and others deselected
2636 at the same time, it will return @true.
2638 bool IsSelection() const;
2641 Sets the client data for this event.
2643 void SetClientData(void* clientData
);
2646 Sets the client object for this event. The client object is not owned by the
2647 event object and the event object will not delete the client object in its destructor.
2649 The client object must be owned and deleted by another object (e.g. a control)
2650 that has longer life time than the event object.
2652 void SetClientObject(wxClientData
* clientObject
);
2655 Sets the @b m_extraLong member.
2657 void SetExtraLong(long extraLong
);
2660 Sets the @b m_commandInt member.
2662 void SetInt(int intCommand
);
2665 Sets the @b m_commandString member.
2667 void SetString(const wxString
& string

2673 @class wxActivateEvent
2675 An activate event is sent when a window or application is being activated
2678 @beginEventTable{wxActivateEvent}
2679 @event{EVT_ACTIVATE(func)}
2680 Process a @c wxEVT_ACTIVATE event.
2681 @event{EVT_ACTIVATE_APP(func)}
2682 Process a @c wxEVT_ACTIVATE_APP event.
2683 This event is received by the wxApp-derived instance only.
2684 @event{EVT_HIBERNATE(func)}
2685 Process a hibernate event, supplying the member function. This event applies
2686 to wxApp only, and only on Windows SmartPhone and PocketPC.
2687 It is generated when the system is low on memory; the application should free
2688 up as much memory as possible, and restore full working state when it receives
2689 a @c wxEVT_ACTIVATE or @c wxEVT_ACTIVATE_APP event.
2695 @see @ref overview_events, wxApp::IsActive
2697 class wxActivateEvent
: public wxEvent
2703 wxActivateEvent(wxEventType eventType
= wxEVT_NULL
, bool active
= true,
2707 Returns @true if the application or window is being activated, @false otherwise.
2709 bool GetActive() const;
2715 @class wxContextMenuEvent
2717 This class is used for context menu events, sent to give
2718 the application a chance to show a context (popup) menu for a wxWindow.
2720 Note that if wxContextMenuEvent::GetPosition returns wxDefaultPosition, this
2721 means that the event originated from a keyboard context button event, and you
2722 should compute a suitable position yourself, for example by calling wxGetMousePosition().
2724 When a keyboard context menu button is pressed on Windows, a right-click event
2725 with default position is sent first, and if this event is not processed, the
2726 context menu event is sent. So if you process mouse events and you find your
2727 context menu event handler is not being called, you could call wxEvent::Skip()
2728 for mouse right-down events.
2730 @beginEventTable{wxContextMenuEvent}
2731 @event{EVT_CONTEXT_MENU(func)}
2732 A right click (or other context menu command depending on platform) has been detected.
2739 @see wxCommandEvent, @ref overview_events
2741 class wxContextMenuEvent
: public wxCommandEvent
2747 wxContextMenuEvent(wxEventType type
= wxEVT_NULL
, int id
= 0,
2748 const wxPoint
& pos
= wxDefaultPosition
);
2751 Returns the position in screen coordinates at which the menu should be shown.
2752 Use wxWindow::ScreenToClient to convert to client coordinates.
2754 You can also omit a position from wxWindow::PopupMenu in order to use
2755 the current mouse pointer position.
2757 If the event originated from a keyboard event, the value returned from this
2758 function will be wxDefaultPosition.
2760 const wxPoint
& GetPosition() const;
2763 Sets the position at which the menu should be shown.
2765 void SetPosition(const wxPoint
& point
);
2773 An erase event is sent when a window's background needs to be repainted.
2775 On some platforms, such as GTK+, this event is simulated (simply generated just
2776 before the paint event) and may cause flicker. It is therefore recommended that
2777 you set the text background colour explicitly in order to prevent flicker.
2778 The default background colour under GTK+ is grey.
2780 To intercept this event, use the EVT_ERASE_BACKGROUND macro in an event table
2783 You must call wxEraseEvent::GetDC and use the returned device context if it is
2784 non-@NULL. If it is @NULL, create your own temporary wxClientDC object.
2787 Use the device context returned by GetDC to draw on, don't create
2788 a wxPaintDC in the event handler.
2790 @beginEventTable{wxEraseEvent}
2791 @event{EVT_ERASE_BACKGROUND(func)}
2792 Process a @c wxEVT_ERASE_BACKGROUND event.
2798 @see @ref overview_events
2800 class wxEraseEvent
: public wxEvent
2806 wxEraseEvent(int id
= 0, wxDC
* dc
= NULL
);
2809 Returns the device context associated with the erase event to draw on.
2811 wxDC
* GetDC() const;
2819 A focus event is sent when a window's focus changes. The window losing focus
2820 receives a "kill focus" event while the window gaining it gets a "set focus" one.
2822 Notice that the set focus event happens both when the user gives focus to the
2823 window (whether using the mouse or keyboard) and when it is done from the
2824 program itself using wxWindow::SetFocus.
2826 @beginEventTable{wxFocusEvent}
2827 @event{EVT_SET_FOCUS(func)}
2828 Process a @c wxEVT_SET_FOCUS event.

2838 class wxFocusEvent
: public wxEvent
2844 wxFocusEvent(wxEventType eventType
= wxEVT_NULL
, int id
= 0);
2847 Returns the window associated with this event, that is the window which had the
2848 focus before for the @c wxEVT_SET_FOCUS event and the window which is
2849 going to receive focus for the @c wxEVT_KILL_FOCUS one.
2851 Warning: the window pointer may be @NULL!
2853 wxWindow
*GetWindow() const;
2855 void SetWindow(wxWindow
*win
);
2861 @class wxChildFocusEvent
2863 A child focus event is sent to a (parent-)window when one of its child windows
2864 gains focus, so that the window could restore the focus back to its corresponding
2865 child if it loses it now and regains later.
2867 Notice that child window is the direct child of the window receiving event.
2868 Use wxWindow::FindFocus() to retreive the window which is actually getting focus.
2870 @beginEventTable{wxChildFocusEvent}
2871 @event{EVT_CHILD_FOCUS(func)}
2872 Process a @c wxEVT_CHILD_FOCUS event.

: public wxCommandEvent
2887 The direct child which is (or which contains the window which is) receiving
2890 wxChildFocusEvent(wxWindow
* win
= NULL
);
2893 Returns the direct child which receives the focus, or a (grand-)parent of the
2894 control receiving the focus.
2896 To get the actually focused control use wxWindow::FindFocus.
2898 wxWindow
*GetWindow() const;
2904 @class wxMouseCaptureLostEvent
2906 An mouse capture lost event is sent to a window that obtained mouse capture,
2907 which was subsequently loss due to "external" event, for example when a dialog
2908 box is shown or if another application captures the mouse.
2910 If this happens, this event is sent to all windows that are on capture stack
2911 (i.e. called CaptureMouse, but didn't call ReleaseMouse yet). The event is
2912 not sent if the capture changes because of a call to CaptureMouse or
2915 This event is currently emitted under Windows only.
2917 @beginEventTable{wxMouseCaptureLostEvent}
2918 @event{EVT_MOUSE_CAPTURE_LOST(func)}
2919 Process a @c wxEVT_MOUSE_CAPTURE_LOST event.

2971 @class wxNotifyEvent
2973 This class is not used by the event handlers by itself, but is a base class
2974 for other event classes (such as wxBookCtrlEvent).
2976 It (or an object of a derived class) is sent when the controls state is being
2977 changed and allows the program to wxNotifyEvent::Veto() this change if it wants
2978 to prevent it from happening.
2983 @see wxBookCtrlEvent
2985 class wxNotifyEvent
: public wxCommandEvent
2989 Constructor (used internally by wxWidgets only).
2991 wxNotifyEvent(wxEventType eventType
= wxEVT_NULL
, int id
= 0);
2994 This is the opposite of Veto(): it explicitly allows the event to be processed.
2995 For most events it is not necessary to call this method as the events are allowed
2996 anyhow but some are forbidden by default (this will be mentioned in the corresponding
3002 Returns @true if the change is allowed (Veto() hasn't been called) or @false
3003 otherwise (if it was).
3005 bool IsAllowed() const;
3008 Prevents the change announced by this event from happening.
3010 It is in general a good idea to notify the user about the reasons for vetoing
3011 the change because otherwise the applications behaviour (which just refuses to
3012 do what the user wants) might be quite surprising.
3019 @class wxThreadEvent
3021 This class adds some simple functionalities to wxCommandEvent coinceived
3022 for inter-threads communications.
3024 This event is not natively emitted by any control/class: this is just
3025 an helper class for the user.
3026 Its most important feature is the GetEventCategory() implementation which
3027 allows thread events to @b NOT be processed by wxEventLoopBase::YieldFor calls
3028 (unless the @c wxEVT_CATEGORY_THREAD is specified - which is never in wx code).
3031 @category{events,threading}

3044 Clones this event making sure that all internal members which use
3045 COW (only @c m_commandString for now; see @ref overview_refcount)
3046 are unshared (see wxObject::UnShare).
3048 virtual wxEvent
*Clone() const;
3051 Returns @c wxEVT_CATEGORY_THREAD.
3053 This is important to avoid unwanted processing of thread events
3054 when calling wxEventLoopBase::YieldFor().
3056 virtual wxEventCategory
GetEventCategory() const;
3059 Sets custom data payload.
3061 The @a payload argument may be of any type that wxAny can handle
3062 (i.e. pretty much anything). Note that T's copy constructor must be
3063 thread-safe, i.e. create a copy that doesn't share anything with
3064 the original (see Clone()).

3094 A help event is sent when the user has requested context-sensitive help.
3095 This can either be caused by the application requesting context-sensitive help mode
3096 via wxContextHelp, or (on MS Windows) by the system generating a WM_HELP message when
3097 the user pressed F1 or clicked on the query button in a dialog caption.
3099 A help event is sent to the window that the user clicked on, and is propagated
3100 up the window hierarchy until the event is processed or there are no more event
3103 The application should call wxEvent::GetId to check the identity of the
3104 clicked-on window, and then either show some suitable help or call wxEvent::Skip()
3105 if the identifier is unrecognised.
3107 Calling Skip is important because it allows wxWidgets to generate further
3108 events for ancestors of the clicked-on window. Otherwise it would be impossible to
3109 show help for container windows, since processing would stop after the first window

3181 @class wxScrollEvent
3183 A scroll event holds information about events sent from stand-alone
3184 scrollbars (see wxScrollBar) and sliders (see wxSlider).
3186 Note that scrolled windows send the wxScrollWinEvent which does not derive from
3187 wxCommandEvent, but from wxEvent directly - don't confuse these two kinds of
3188 events and use the event table macros mentioned below only for the scrollbar-like
3191 @section scrollevent_diff The difference between EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE and EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED
3193 The EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE event is only emitted when actually dragging the thumb
3194 using the mouse and releasing it (This EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE event is also followed
3195 by an EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED event).
3197 The EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED event also occurs when using the keyboard to change the thumb
3198 position, and when clicking next to the thumb (In all these cases the EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE
3199 event does not happen).
3201 In short, the EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED event is triggered when scrolling/ moving has finished
3202 independently of the way it had started. Please see the widgets sample ("Slider" page)
3203 to see the difference between EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE and EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED in action.
3206 Note that unless specifying a scroll control identifier, you will need to test for scrollbar
3207 orientation with wxScrollEvent::GetOrientation, since horizontal and vertical scroll events
3208 are processed using the same event handler.

3211 You can use EVT_COMMAND_SCROLL... macros with window IDs for when intercepting
3212 scroll events from controls, or EVT_SCROLL... macros without window IDs for

3298 wxIDLE_PROCESS_SPECIFIED
3305 This class is used for idle events, which are generated when the system becomes
3306 idle. Note that, unless you do something specifically, the idle events are not
3307 sent if the system remains idle once it has become it, e.g. only a single idle
3308 event will be generated until something else resulting in more normal events
3309 happens and only then is the next idle event sent again.
3311 If you need to ensure a continuous stream of idle events, you can either use
3312 wxIdleEvent::RequestMore method in your handler or call wxWakeUpIdle() periodically
3313 (for example from a timer event handler), but note that both of these approaches
3314 (and especially the first one) increase the system load and so should be avoided
3317 By default, idle events are sent to all windows (and also wxApp, as usual).
3318 If this is causing a significant overhead in your application, you can call
3319 wxIdleEvent::SetMode with the value wxIDLE_PROCESS_SPECIFIED, and set the
3320 wxWS_EX_PROCESS_IDLE extra window style for every window which should receive
3323 @beginEventTable{wxIdleEvent}
3324 @event{EVT_IDLE(func)}
3325 Process a @c wxEVT_IDLE event.
3331 @see @ref overview_events, wxUpdateUIEvent, wxWindow::OnInternalIdle
3333 class wxIdleEvent
: public wxEvent
3342 Static function returning a value specifying how wxWidgets will send idle
3343 events: to all windows, or only to those which specify that they
3344 will process the events.
3348 static wxIdleMode
GetMode();
3351 Returns @true if the OnIdle function processing this event requested more
3356 bool MoreRequested() const;
3359 Tells wxWidgets that more processing is required.
3361 This function can be called by an OnIdle handler for a window or window event
3362 handler to indicate that wxApp::OnIdle should forward the OnIdle event once
3363 more to the application windows.
3365 If no window calls this function during OnIdle, then the application will
3366 remain in a passive event loop (not calling OnIdle) until a new event is
3367 posted to the application by the windowing system.
3369 @see MoreRequested()
3371 void RequestMore(bool needMore
= true);
3374 Static function for specifying how wxWidgets will send idle events: to
3375 all windows, or only to those which specify that they will process the events.
3378 Can be one of the ::wxIdleMode values.
3379 The default is wxIDLE_PROCESS_ALL.
3381 static void SetMode(wxIdleMode mode

3387 @class wxInitDialogEvent
3389 A wxInitDialogEvent is sent as a dialog or panel is being initialised.
3390 Handlers for this event can transfer data to the window.
3392 The default handler calls wxWindow::TransferDataToWindow.
3394 @beginEventTable{wxInitDialogEvent}
3395 @event{EVT_INIT_DIALOG(func)}
3396 Process a @c wxEVT_INIT_DIALOG event.
3402 @see @ref overview_events
3404 class wxInitDialogEvent
: public wxEvent
3410 wxInitDialogEvent(int id
= 0);
3416 @class wxWindowDestroyEvent
3418 This event is sent as early as possible during the window destruction
3421 For the top level windows, as early as possible means that this is done by
3422 wxFrame or wxDialog destructor, i.e. after the destructor of the derived
3423 class was executed and so any methods specific to the derived class can't
3424 be called any more from this event handler. If you need to do this, you
3425 must call wxWindow::SendDestroyEvent() from your derived class destructor.
3427 For the child windows, this event is generated just before deleting the
3428 window from wxWindow::Destroy() (which is also called when the parent
3429 window is deleted) or from the window destructor if operator @c delete was
3430 used directly (which is not recommended for this very reason).
3432 It is usually pointless to handle this event in the window itself but it ca
3433 be very useful to receive notifications about the window destruction in the
3434 parent window or in any other object interested in this window.

3455 @class wxNavigationKeyEvent
3457 This event class contains information about navigation events,
3458 generated by navigation keys such as tab and page down.
3460 This event is mainly used by wxWidgets implementations.
3461 A wxNavigationKeyEvent handler is automatically provided by wxWidgets
3462 when you make a class into a control container with the macro
3463 WX_DECLARE_CONTROL_CONTAINER.
3465 @beginEventTable{wxNavigationKeyEvent}
3466 @event{EVT_NAVIGATION_KEY(func)}
3467 Process a navigation key event.

3539 void SetWindowChange(bool windowChange

3545 @class wxMouseCaptureChangedEvent
3547 An mouse capture changed event is sent to a window that loses its
3548 mouse capture. This is called even if wxWindow::ReleaseMouse
3549 was called by the application code. Handling this event allows
3550 an application to cater for unexpected capture releases which
3551 might otherwise confuse mouse handling code.
3555 @beginEventTable{wxMouseCaptureChangedEvent}
3556 @event{EVT_MOUSE_CAPTURE_CHANGED(func)}
3557 Process a @c wxEVT_MOUSE_CAPTURE_CHANGED event.
3563 @see wxMouseCaptureLostEvent, @ref overview_events,

3566 class wxMouseCaptureChangedEvent
: public wxEvent
3572 wxMouseCaptureChangedEvent(wxWindowID windowId
= 0,
3573 wxWindow

);
3576 Returns the window that gained the capture, or @NULL if it was a
3577 non-wxWidgets window.
3579 wxWindow
* GetCapturedWindow() const;
3587 This event class contains information about window and session close events.
3589 The handler function for EVT_CLOSE is called when the user has tried to close a
3590 a frame or dialog box using the window manager (X) or system menu (Windows).
3591 It can also be invoked by the application itself programmatically, for example by
3592 calling the wxWindow::Close function.
3594 You should check whether the application is forcing the deletion of the window
3595 using wxCloseEvent::CanVeto. If this is @false, you @e must destroy the window
3596 using wxWindow::Destroy.
3598 If the return value is @true, it is up to you whether you respond by destroying
3601 If you don't destroy the window, you should call wxCloseEvent::Veto to
3602 let the calling code know that you did not destroy the window.
3603 This allows the wxWindow::Close function to return @true or @false depending
3604 on whether the close instruction was honoured or not.
3606 Example of a wxCloseEvent handler:
3609 void MyFrame::OnClose(wxCloseEvent& event)
3611 if ( event.CanVeto() && m_bFileNotSaved )
3613 if ( wxMessageBox("The file has not been saved... continue closing?",
3615 wxICON_QUESTION | wxYES_NO) != wxYES )
3622 Destroy(); // you may also do: event.Skip();
3623 // since the default event handler does call Destroy(), too
3627 The EVT_END_SESSION event is slightly different as it is sent by the system
3628 when the user session is ending (e.g. because of log out or shutdown) and
3629 so all windows are being forcefully closed. At least under MSW, after the
3630 handler for this event is executed the program is simply killed by the
3631 system. Because of this, the default handler for this event provided by
3632 wxWidgets calls all the usual cleanup code (including wxApp::OnExit()) so
3633 that it could still be executed and exit()s the process itself, without
3634 waiting for being killed. If this behaviour is for some reason undesirable,
3635 make sure that you define a handler for this event in your wxApp-derived
3636 class and do not call @c event.Skip() in it (but be aware that the system
3637 will still kill your application).
3639 @beginEventTable{wxCloseEvent}
3640 @event{EVT_CLOSE(func)}
3641 Process a @c wxEVT_CLOSE_WINDOW command event, supplying the member function.
3642 This event applies to wxFrame and wxDialog classes.
3643 @event{EVT_QUERY_END_SESSION(func)}
3644 Process a @c wxEVT_QUERY_END_SESSION session event, supplying the member function.
3645 This event can be handled in wxApp-derived class only.
3646 @event{EVT_END_SESSION(func)}
3647 Process a @c wxEVT_END_SESSION session event, supplying the member function.
3648 This event can be handled in wxApp-derived class only.

3656 class wxCloseEvent
: public wxEvent
3662 wxCloseEvent(wxEventType commandEventType

3665 Returns @true if you can veto a system shutdown or a window close event.
3666 Vetoing a window close event is not possible if the calling code wishes to
3667 force the application to exit, and so this function must be called to check this.
3669 bool CanVeto() const;
3672 Returns @true if the user is just logging off or @false if the system is
3673 shutting down. This method can only be called for end session and query end
3674 session events, it doesn't make sense for close window event.
3676 bool GetLoggingOff() const;
3679 Sets the 'can veto' flag.
3681 void SetCanVeto(bool canVeto
);
3684 Sets the 'logging off' flag.
3686 void SetLoggingOff(bool loggingOff
);
3689 Call this from your event handler to veto a system shutdown or to signal
3690 to the calling application that a window close did not happen.
3692 You can only veto a shutdown if CanVeto() returns @true.
3694 void Veto(bool veto
= true);
3702 This class is used for a variety of menu-related events. Note that
3703 these do not include menu command events, which are
3704 handled using wxCommandEvent objects.
3706 The default handler for @c wxEVT_MENU_HIGHLIGHT displays help
3707 text in the first field of the status bar.
3709 @beginEventTable{wxMenuEvent}
3710 @event{EVT_MENU_OPEN(func)}
3711 A menu is about to be opened. On Windows, this is only sent once for each
3712 navigation of the menubar (up until all menus have closed).
3713 @event{EVT_MENU_CLOSE(func)}
3714 A menu has been just closed.
3715 @event{EVT_MENU_HIGHLIGHT(id, func)}
3716 The menu item with the specified id has been highlighted: used to show
3717 help prompts in the status bar by wxFrame

3736 Returns the menu which is being opened or closed. This method should only be
3737 used with the @c OPEN and @c CLOSE events and even for them the
3738 returned pointer may be @NULL in some ports.
3740 wxMenu

3743 Returns the menu identifier associated with the event.
3744 This method should be only used with the @c HIGHLIGHT events.
3746 int GetMenuId() const;
3749 Returns @true if the menu which is being opened or closed is a popup menu,
3750 @false if it is a normal one.
3752 This method should only be used with the @c OPEN and @c CLOSE events.
3754 bool IsPopup() const;
3760 An event being sent when the window is shown or hidden.
3761 The event is triggered by calls to wxWindow::Show(), and any user
3762 action showing a previously hidden window or vice versa (if allowed by
3763 the current platform and/or window manager).
3764 Notice that the event is not triggered when the application is iconized
3765 (minimized) or restored under wxMSW.

3897 A size event holds information about size change events of wxWindow.
3899 The EVT_SIZE handler function will be called when the window has been resized.
3901 You may wish to use this for frames to resize their child windows as appropriate.
3903 Note that the size passed is of the whole window: call wxWindow::GetClientSize()
3904 for the area which may be used by the application.
3906 When a window is resized, usually only a small part of the window is damaged
3907 and you may only need to repaint that area. However, if your drawing depends on the
3908 size of the window, you may need to clear the DC explicitly and repaint the whole window.
3909 In which case, you may need to call wxWindow::Refresh to invalidate the entire window.

3932 This is the new total size of the window, i.e. the same size as would
3933 be returned by wxWindow::GetSize() if it were called now. Use
3934 wxWindow::GetClientSize() if you catch this event in a top level window

4145 IDs instead of a single one.
4146 Argument @a id1 is the first identifier of the range, @a id2 is the
4147 second identifier of the range.
4149 #define wx__DECLARE_EVT2(evt, id1, id2, fn) \
4150 DECLARE_EVENT_TABLE_ENTRY(evt, id1, id2, fn, NULL),
4153 Simplified version of the wx__DECLARE_EVT1() macro, to be used when the
4154 event type must be handled regardless of the ID associated with the
4155 specific event instances.
4157 #define wx__DECLARE_EVT0(evt, fn) \
4158 wx__DECLARE_EVT1(evt, wxID_ANY, fn)
4161 Use this macro inside a class declaration to declare a @e static event table
4164 In the implementation file you'll need to use the wxBEGIN_EVENT_TABLE()
4165 and the wxEND_EVENT_TABLE() macros, plus some additional @c EVT_xxx macro
4168 Note that this macro requires a final semicolon.
4170 @see @ref overview_events_eventtables
4172 #define wxDECLARE_EVENT_TABLE()
4175 Use this macro in a source file to start listing @e static event handlers
4176 for a specific class.
4178 Use wxEND_EVENT_TABLE() to terminate the event-declaration block.
4180 @see @ref overview_events_eventtables
4182 #define wxBEGIN_EVENT_TABLE(theClass, baseClass)
4185 Use this macro in a source file to end listing @e static event handlers
4186 for a specific class.
4188 Use wxBEGIN_EVENT_TABLE() to start the event-declaration block.
4190 @see @ref overview_events_eventtables
4192 #define wxEND_EVENT_TABLE()
4195 In a GUI application, this function posts @a event to the specified @e dest
4196 object using wxEvtHandler::AddPendingEvent().
4198 Otherwise, it dispatches @a event immediately using
4199 wxEvtHandler::ProcessEvent(). See the respective documentation for details
4200 (and caveats). Because of limitation of wxEvtHandler::AddPendingEvent()
4201 this function is not thread-safe for event objects having wxString fields,
4202 use wxQueueEvent() instead.
4206 void wxPostEvent(wxEvtHandler
* dest
, const wxEvent
& event
);
4209 Queue an event for processing on the given object.
4211 This is a wrapper around wxEvtHandler::QueueEvent(), see its documentation
4217 The object to queue the event on, can't be @c NULL.
4219 The heap-allocated and non-@c NULL event to queue, the function takes
4222 void wxQueueEvent(wxEvtHandler
* dest
, wxEvent
*event
);
