-You can construct a string list property value by constructing a wxStringList object.
-
-For example:
-
-\begin{verbatim}
-  myListValidatorRegistry.RegisterValidator((wxString)"stringlist",
-      new wxListOfStringsListValidator);
-
-  wxStringList *strings = new wxStringList("earth", "fire", "wind", "water", NULL);

-\section{\class{wxProperty}: wxObject}\label{wxproperty}
-
-The {\bf wxProperty} class represents a property, with a \helpref{wxPropertyValue}{wxpropertyvalue}\rtfsp
-containing the actual value, a name a role, an optional validator, and
-an optional associated window. 
-
-A property might correspond to an actual C++ data member, or it
-might correspond to a conceptual property, such as the width of a window.
-There is no explicit data member {\it wxWindow::width}, but it may be convenient
-to invent such a property for the purposes of editing attributes of the window.
-The properties in the property sheet can be mapped to ``reality" by
-whatever means (in this case by calling wxWindow::SetSize when the user has
-finished editing the property sheet).
-
-A validator may be associated with the property in order to ensure that this and
-only this validator will be used for editing and validating the property.
-An alternative method is to use the {\it role} parameter to specify what kind
-of validator would be appropriate; for example, specifying ``filename" for the role
-would allow the property view to find an appropriate validator at edit time.

-
-\section{Property classes overview}\label{propertyoverview}
-
-The property classes help a programmer to express relationships between
-data and physical windows, in particular:
-
-\begin{itemize}\itemsep=0pt
-\item the transfer of data to and from the physical controls;
-\item the behaviour of various controls and custom windows for particular
-types of data;
-\item the validation of data, notifying the user when incorrect data is entered,
-or even better, constraining the input so only valid data can be entered.
-\end{itemize}
-
-With a consistent framework, the programmer should be able to use existing
-components and design new ones in a principled manner, to solve many data entry
-requirements.
-
-Each datum is represented in a \helpref{wxProperty}{wxproperty}, which has a name and a value.
-Various C++ types are permitted in the value of a property, and the property can store a pointer
-to the data instead of a copy of the data. A \helpref{wxPropertySheet}{wxpropertysheet} represents a number of these properties.
-
-These two classes are independent from the way in which the data is visually manipulated. To
-mediate between property sheets and windows, the abstract class \helpref{wxPropertyView}{wxpropertyview} is
-available for programmers to derive new kinds of view. One kind of view that is available is the \helpref{wxPropertyListView}{wxpropertylistview},
-which displays the data in a Visual Basic-style list, with a small number of controls for editing
-the currently selected property. Another is \helpref{wxPropertyFormView}{wxpropertyformview} which
-mediates between an existing dialog or panel and the property sheet.
-
-The hard work of mediation is actually performed by validators, which are instances of classes
-derived from \helpref{wxPropertyValidator}{wxpropertyvalidator}. A validator is associated with
-a particular property and is responsible for
-responding to user interface events, and displaying, updating and checking the property value.
-Because a validator's behaviour depends largely on the kind of view being used, there has to be
-a separate hierarchy of validators for each class of view. So for wxPropertyListView, there is
-an abstract class \helpref{wxPropertyListValidator}{wxpropertylistvalidator} from which concrete
-classes are derived, such as \helpref{wxRealListValidator}{wxreallistvalidator} and
-\rtfsp\helpref{wxStringListValidator}{wxstringlistvalidator}.
-
-A validator can be explicitly set for a property, so there is no doubt which validator
-should be used to edit that property. However, it is also possible to define a registry
-of validators, and have the validator chosen on the basis of the {\it role} of the property.
-So a property with a ``filename" role would match the ``filename" validator, which pops
-up a file selector when the user double clicks on the property.
-
-You don't have to define your own frame or window classes: there are some predefined
-that will work with the property list view. See \helpref{Window classes}{windowclasses} for
-further details.
-
-\subsection{Example 1: Property list view}
-
-The following code fragment shows the essentials of creating a registry of
-standard validators, a property sheet containing some properties, and
-a property list view and dialog or frame. RegisterValidators will be
-called on program start, and PropertySheetTest is called in response to a
-menu command.
-
-Note how some properties are created with an explicit reference to
-a validator, and others are provided with a ``role'' which can be matched
-against a validator in the registry.
-
-The interface generated by this test program is shown in the section \helpref{Appearance and
-behaviour of a property list view}{appearance}.

-\section{Validator classes overview}\label{validatoroverview}
-
-Classes: \helpref{Validator classes}{validatorclasses}
-
-The validator classes provide functionality for mediating between a wxProperty and
-the actual display. There is a separate family of validator classes for each
-class of view, since the differences in user interface for these views implies
-that little common functionality can be shared amongst validators.
-
-\subsection{wxPropertyValidator overview}\label{wxpropertyvalidatoroverview}
-
-Class: \helpref{wxPropertyValidator}{wxpropertyvalidator}
-
-This class is the root of all property validator classes. It contains a small
-amount of common functionality, including functions to convert between
-strings and C++ values.
-
-A validator is notionally an object which sits between a property and its displayed
-value, and checks that the value the user enters is correct, giving an error message
-if the validation fails. In fact, the validator does more than that, and is akin to
-a view class but at a finer level of detail. It is also responsible for
-loading the dialog box control with the value from the property, putting it back
-into the property, preparing special controls for editing the value, and
-may even invoke special dialogs for editing the value in a convenient way.
-
-In a property list dialog, there is quite a lot of scope for supplying custom dialogs,
-such as file or colour selectors. For a form dialog, there is less scope because
-there is no concept of `detailed editing' of a value: one control is associated with
-one property, and there is no provision for invoking further dialogs. The reader
-may like to work out how the form view could be extended to provide some of the
-functionality of the property list!
-
-Validator objects may be associated explictly with a wxProperty, or they may be
-indirectly associated by virtue of a property `kind' that matches validators having
-that kind. In the latter case, such validators are stored in a validator registry
-which is passed to the view before the dialog is shown. If the validator takes
-arguments, such as minimum and maximum values in the case of a wxIntegerListValidator,
-then the validator must be associated explicitly with the property. The validator
-will be deleted when the property is deleted.
-
-\subsection{wxPropertyListValidator overview}\label{wxpropertylistvalidatoroverview}
-
-Class: \helpref{wxPropertyListValidator}{wxpropertylistvalidator}
-
-This class is the abstract base class for property list view validators.
-The list view acts upon a user interface containing a list of properties,
-a text item for direct property value editing, confirm/cancel buttons for the value,
-a pulldown list for making a choice between values, and OK/Cancel/Help buttons
-for the dialog (see \helpref{property list appearance}{appearance}).
-
-By overriding virtual functions, the programmer can create custom
-behaviour for different kinds of property. Custom behaviour can use just the
-available controls on the property list dialog, or the validator can
-invoke custom editors with quite different controls, which pop up in
-`detailed editing' mode.
-
-See the detailed class documentation for the members you should override
-to give your validator appropriate behaviour.
-
-\subsection{wxPropertyFormValidator overview}\label{wxpropertyformvalidatoroverview}
-
-This class is the abstract base class for property form view validators.
-The form view acts upon an existing dialog box or panel, where either the
-panel item names correspond to property names, or the programmer has explicitly
-associated the panel item with the property.
-
-By overriding virtual functions, the programmer determines how
-values are displayed or retrieved, and the checking that the validator does.
-
-See the detailed class documentation for the members you should override
-to give your validator appropriate behaviour.
-
-\section{View classes overview}\label{viewoverview}
-
-Classes: \helpref{View classes}{viewclasses}
-
-An instance of a view class relates a property sheet with an actual window.
-Currently, there are two classes of view: wxPropertyListView and wxPropertyFormView.
-
-\subsection{wxPropertyView overview}\label{wxpropertyviewoverview}
-
-Class: \helpref{wxPropertyView}{wxpropertyview}
-
-This is the abstract base class for property views.
-
-\subsection{wxPropertyListView overview}\label{wxpropertylistviewoverview}
-
-Class: \helpref{wxPropertyListView}{wxpropertylistview}
-
-The property list view defines the relationship between a property sheet and
-a property list dialog or panel. It manages user interface events such as
-clicking on a property, pressing return in the text edit field, and clicking
-on Confirm or Cancel. These events cause member functions of the
-class to be called, and these in turn may call member functions of
-the appropriate validator to be called, to prepare controls, check the property value,
-invoke detailed editing, etc.
-
-\subsection{wxPropertyFormView overview}\label{wxpropertyformviewoverview}
-
-Class: \helpref{wxPropertyFormView}{wxpropertyformview}
-
-The property form view manages the relationship between a property sheet
-and an existing dialog or panel.
-
-You must first create a panel or dialog box for the view to work on.
-The panel should contain panel items with names that correspond to
-properties in your property sheet; or you can explicitly set the
-panel item for each property.
-
-Apart from any custom panel items that you wish to control independently
-of the property-editing items, wxPropertyFormView takes over the
-processing of item events. It can also control normal dialog behaviour such
-as OK, Cancel, so you should also create some standard buttons that the property view
-can recognise. Just create the buttons with standard names and the view
-will do the rest. The following button names are recognised:
-
-\begin{itemize}\itemsep=0pt
-\item {\bf ok}: indicates the OK button. Calls wxPropertyFormView::OnOk. By default,
-checks and updates the form values, closes and deletes the frame or dialog, then deletes the view.
-\item {\bf cancel}: indicates the Cancel button. Calls wxPropertyFormView::OnCancel. By default,
-closes and deletes the frame or dialog, then deletes the view.
-\item {\bf help}: indicates the Help button. Calls wxPropertyFormView::OnHelp. This needs
-to be overridden by the application for anything interesting to happen.
-\item {\bf revert}: indicates the Revert button. Calls wxPropertyFormView::OnRevert,
-which by default transfers the wxProperty values to the panel items (in effect
-undoing any unsaved changes in the items).
-\item {\bf update}: indicates the Revert button. Calls wxPropertyFormView::OnUpdate, which
-by defaults transfers the displayed values to the wxProperty objects.
-\end{itemize}
-
-\section{wxPropertySheet overview}\label{wxpropertysheetoverview}
-
-Classes: \helpref{wxPropertySheet}{wxpropertysheet}, \helpref{wxProperty}{wxproperty}, \helpref{wxPropertyValue}{wxpropertyvalue}
-
-A property sheet defines zero or more properties. This is a bit like an explicit representation of
-a C++ object. wxProperty objects can have values which are pointers to C++ values, or they
-can allocate their own storage for values.
-
-Because the property sheet representation is explicit and can be manipulated by
-a program, it is a convenient form to be used for a variety of
-editing purposes. wxPropertyListView and wxPropertyFormView are two classes that
-specify the relationship between a property sheet and a user interface. You could imagine
-other uses for wxPropertySheet, for example to generate a form-like user interface without
-the need for GUI programming. Or for storing the names and values of command-line switches, with the
-option to subsequently edit these values using a wxPropertyListView.
-
-A typical use for a property sheet is to represent values of an object
-which are only implicit in the current representation of it. For
-example, in Visual Basic and similar programming environments, you can
-`edit a button', or rather, edit the button's properties.  One of the
-properties you can edit is {\it width} - but there is no explicit
-representation of width in a wxWindows button; instead, you call SetSize
-and GetSize members. To translate this into a consisent,
-property-oriented scheme, we could derive a new class
-wxButtonWithProperties, which has two new functions: SetProperty and
-GetProperty.  SetProperty accepts a property name and a value, and calls
-an appropriate function for the property that is being passed.
-GetProperty accepts a property name, returning a property value. So
-instead of having to use the usual arbitrary set of C++ member functions
-to set or access attributes of a window, programmer deals merely with
-SetValue/GetValue, and property names and values.
-We now have a single point at which we can modify or query an object by specifying
-names and values at run-time. (The implementation of SetProperty and GetProperty
-is probably quite messy and involves a large if-then-else statement to
-test the property name and act accordingly.)
-
-When the user invokes the property editor for a wxButtonWithProperties, the system
-creates a wxPropertySheet with `imaginary' properties such as width, height, font size
-and so on. For each property, wxButtonWithProperties::GetProperty is called, and the result is
-passed to the corresponding wxProperty. The wxPropertySheet is passed to a wxPropertyListView
-as described elsewhere, and the user edits away. When the user has finished editing, the system calls
-wxButtonWithProperties::SetProperty to transfer the wxProperty value back into the button
-by way of an appropriate call, wxWindow::SetSize in the case of width and height properties.
