/**
@class wxPGProperty
wxPGProperty is base class for all wxPropertyGrid properties. In
sections below we cover few related topics.
@li @ref pgproperty_properties
@li @ref pgproperty_creating
@section pgproperty_properties Supplied Ready-to-use Property Classes
Here is a list and short description of supplied fully-functional
property classes. They are located in either props.h or advprops.h.
@li @ref wxArrayStringProperty
@li @ref wxBoolProperty
@li @ref wxColourProperty
@li @ref wxCursorProperty
@li @ref wxDateProperty
@li @ref wxDirProperty
@li @ref wxEditEnumProperty
@li @ref wxEnumProperty
@li @ref wxFileProperty
@li @ref wxFlagsProperty
@li @ref wxFloatProperty
@li @ref wxFontProperty
@li @ref wxImageFileProperty
@li @ref wxIntProperty
@li @ref wxLongStringProperty
@li @ref wxMultiChoiceProperty
@li @ref wxPropertyCategory
@li @ref wxStringProperty
@li @ref wxSystemColourProperty
@li @ref wxUIntProperty
@subsection wxPropertyCategory
Not an actual property per se, but a header for a group of properties.
Regardless inherits from wxPGProperty.
@subsection wxStringProperty
Simple string property. wxPG_STRING_PASSWORD attribute may be used
to echo value as asterisks and use wxTE_PASSWORD for wxTextCtrl.
@remarks wxStringProperty has a special trait: if it has value of
"<composed>", and also has child properties, then its displayed
value becomes composition of child property values, similar as
with wxFontProperty, for instance.
@subsection wxIntProperty
Like wxStringProperty, but converts text to a signed long integer.
wxIntProperty seamlessly supports 64-bit integers (ie. wxLongLong).
To safely convert variant to integer, use code like this:
@code
wxLongLong ll;
ll << property->GetValue();
// or
wxLongLong ll = propertyGrid->GetPropertyValueAsLong(property);
@endcode
@subsection wxUIntProperty
Like wxIntProperty, but displays value as unsigned int. To set
the prefix used globally, manipulate wxPG_UINT_PREFIX string attribute.
To set the globally used base, manipulate wxPG_UINT_BASE int
attribute. Regardless of current prefix, understands (hex) values starting
with both "0x" and "$".
Like wxIntProperty, wxUIntProperty seamlessly supports 64-bit unsigned
integers (ie. wxULongLong). Same wxVariant safety rules apply.
@subsection wxFloatProperty
Like wxStringProperty, but converts text to a double-precision floating point.
Default float-to-text precision is 6 decimals, but this can be changed
by modifying wxPG_FLOAT_PRECISION attribute.
@subsection wxBoolProperty
Represents a boolean value. wxChoice is used as editor control, by the
default. wxPG_BOOL_USE_CHECKBOX attribute can be set to true inorder to use
check box instead.
@subsection wxLongStringProperty
Like wxStringProperty, but has a button that triggers a small text editor
dialog. Note that in long string values, tabs are represented by "\t" and
line break by "\n".
To display custom dialog on button press, you can subclass
wxLongStringProperty and implement OnButtonClick, like this:
@code
virtual bool OnButtonClick( wxPropertyGrid* propGrid, wxString& value )
{
wxSize dialogSize(...size of your dialog...);
wxPoint dlgPos = propGrid->GetGoodEditorDialogPosition(this,
dialogSize)
// Create dialog dlg at dlgPos. Use value as initial string
// value.
...
if ( dlg.ShowModal() == wxID_OK )
{
value = dlg.GetStringValue);
return true;
}
return false;
}
@endcode
Also, if you wish not to have line breaks and tabs translated to
escape sequences, then do following in constructor of your subclass:
@code
m_flags |= wxPG_PROP_NO_ESCAPE;
@endcode
@subsection wxDirProperty
Like wxLongStringProperty, but the button triggers dir selector instead.
Supported properties (all with string value): wxPG_DIR_DIALOG_MESSAGE.
@subsection wxFileProperty
Like wxLongStringProperty, but the button triggers file selector instead.
Default wildcard is "All files..." but this can be changed by setting
wxPG_FILE_WILDCARD attribute (see wxFileDialog for format details).
Attribute wxPG_FILE_SHOW_FULL_PATH can be set to @false inorder to show
only the filename, not the entire path.
@subsection wxEnumProperty
Represents a single selection from a list of choices -
wxOwnerDrawnComboBox is used to edit the value.
@subsection wxFlagsProperty
Represents a bit set that fits in a long integer. wxBoolProperty sub-properties
are created for editing individual bits. Textctrl is created to manually edit
the flags as a text; a continous sequence of spaces, commas and semicolons
is considered as a flag id separator.
<b>Note: </b> When changing "choices" (ie. flag labels) of wxFlagsProperty, you
will need to use wxPGProperty::SetChoices() - otherwise they will not get updated
properly.
@subsection wxArrayStringProperty
Allows editing of a list of strings in wxTextCtrl and in a separate dialog.
@subsection wxDateProperty
wxDateTime property. Default editor is DatePickerCtrl, altough TextCtrl
should work as well. wxPG_DATE_FORMAT attribute can be used to change
string wxDateTime::Format uses (altough default is recommended as it is
locale-dependant), and wxPG_DATE_PICKER_STYLE allows changing window
style given to DatePickerCtrl (default is wxDP_DEFAULT|wxDP_SHOWCENTURY).
@subsection wxEditEnumProperty
Represents a string that can be freely edited or selected from list of choices -
custom combobox control is used to edit the value.
@subsection wxMultiChoiceProperty
Allows editing a multiple selection from a list of strings. This is
property is pretty much built around concept of wxMultiChoiceDialog.
It uses wxArrayString value.
@subsection wxImageFileProperty
Like wxFileProperty, but has thumbnail of the image in front of
the filename and autogenerates wildcard from available image handlers.
@subsection wxColourProperty
<b>Useful alternate editor:</b> Choice.
Represents wxColour. wxButton is used to trigger a colour picker dialog.
There are various sub-classing opportunities with this class. See
below in wxSystemColourProperty section for details.
@subsection wxFontProperty
Represents wxFont. Various sub-properties are used to edit individual
subvalues.
@subsection wxSystemColourProperty
Represents wxColour and a system colour index. wxChoice is used to edit
the value. Drop-down list has color images. Note that value type
is wxColourPropertyValue instead of wxColour (which wxColourProperty
uses).
@code
class wxColourPropertyValue : public wxObject
{
public:
// An integer value relating to the colour, and which exact
// meaning depends on the property with which it is used.
//
// For wxSystemColourProperty:
// Any of wxSYS_COLOUR_XXX, or any web-colour ( use wxPG_TO_WEB_COLOUR
// macro - (currently unsupported) ), or wxPG_COLOUR_CUSTOM.
wxUint32 m_type;
// Resulting colour. Should be correct regardless of type.
wxColour m_colour;
};
@endcode
in wxSystemColourProperty, and its derived class wxColourProperty, there
are various sub-classing features. To set basic list list of colour
names, call wxPGProperty::SetChoices().
@code
// Override in derived class to customize how colours are translated
// to strings.
virtual wxString ColourToString( const wxColour& col, int index ) const;
// Returns index of entry that triggers colour picker dialog
// (default is last).
virtual int GetCustomColourIndex() const;
// Helper function to show the colour dialog
bool QueryColourFromUser( wxVariant& variant ) const;
// Returns colour for given choice.
// Default function returns wxSystemSettings::GetColour(index).
virtual wxColour GetColour( int index ) const;
@endcode
@subsection wxCursorProperty
Represents a wxCursor. wxChoice is used to edit the value.
Drop-down list has cursor images under some (wxMSW) platforms.
@section pgproperty_creating Creating Custom Properties
New properties can be created by subclassing wxPGProperty or one
of the provided property classes, and (re)implementing necessary
member functions. Below, each virtual member function has ample
documentation about its purpose and any odd details which to keep
in mind.
Here is a very simple 'template' code:
@code
class MyProperty : public wxPGProperty
{
public:
// All arguments of ctor must have a default value -
// use wxPG_LABEL for label and name
MyProperty( const wxString& label = wxPG_LABEL,
const wxString& name = wxPG_LABEL,
const wxString& value = wxEmptyString )
{
// m_value is wxVariant
m_value = value;
}
virtual ~MyProperty() { }
const wxPGEditor* DoGetEditorClass() const
{
// Determines editor used by property.
// You can replace 'TextCtrl' below with any of these
// builtin-in property editor identifiers: Choice, ComboBox,
// TextCtrlAndButton, ChoiceAndButton, CheckBox, SpinCtrl,
// DatePickerCtrl.
return wxPGEditor_TextCtrl;
}
virtual wxString ValueToString( wxVariant& value,
int argFlags ) const
{
// TODO: Convert given property value to a string
}
virtual bool StringToValue( wxVariant& variant, const wxString& text, int argFlags )
{
// TODO: Adapt string to property value.
}
protected:
};
@endcode
Since wxPGProperty derives from wxObject, you can use standard
DECLARE_DYNAMIC_CLASS and IMPLEMENT_DYNAMIC_CLASS macros. From the
above example they were omitted for sake of simplicity, and besides,
they are only really needed if you need to use wxRTTI with your
property class.
You can change the 'value type' of a property by simply assigning different
type of variant with SetValue. <b>It is mandatory to implement
wxVariantData class for all data types used as property values.</b>
You can use macros declared in wxPropertyGrid headers. For instance:
@code
// In header file:
// (If you need to have export declaration, use version of macros
// with _EXPORTED postfix)
WX_PG_DECLARE_VARIANT_DATA(MyDataClass)
// In sources file:
WX_PG_IMPLEMENT_VARIANT_DATA(MyDataClass)
// Or, if you don't have valid == operator:
WX_PG_IMPLEMENT_VARIANT_DATA_DUMMY_EQ(MyDataClass)
@endcode
@library{wxpropgrid}
@category{propgrid}

{
public:

// (as it should work in pretty much 100% of cases).
wxVariant variant;
variant << value;

Override to paint an image in front of the property value text or drop-down
list item (but only if wxPGProperty::OnMeasureImage is overridden as well).
If property's OnMeasureImage() returns size that has height != 0 but less than
row height ( < 0 has special meanings), wxPropertyGrid calls this method to
draw a custom image in a limited area in front of the editor control or
value text/graphics, and if control has drop-down list, then the image is
drawn there as well (even in the case OnMeasureImage() returned higher height
than row height).
NOTE: Following applies when OnMeasureImage() returns a "flexible" height (
using wxPG_FLEXIBLE_SIZE(W,H) macro), which implies variable height items:
If rect.x is < 0, then this is a measure item call, which means that
dc is invalid and only thing that should be done is to set paintdata.m_drawnHeight
to the height of the image of item at index paintdata.m_choiceItem. This call
may be done even as often as once every drop-down popup show.
@param dc
wxDC to paint on.
@param rect
Box reserved for custom graphics. Includes surrounding rectangle, if any.
If x is < 0, then this is a measure item call (see above).
@param paintdata
wxPGPaintData structure with much useful data about painted item.
@code
struct wxPGPaintData
{
// wxPropertyGrid.
const wxPropertyGrid* m_parent;
// Normally -1, otherwise index to drop-down list item that has to be drawn.
int m_choiceItem;
// Set to drawn width in OnCustomPaint (optional).
int m_drawnWidth;
// In a measure item call, set this to the height of item at m_choiceItem index
int m_drawnHeight;
};
@endcode
@remarks
- You can actually exceed rect width, but if you do so then paintdata.m_drawnWidth
must be set to the full width drawn in pixels.
- Due to technical reasons, rect's height will be default even if custom height
was reported during measure call.
- Brush is guaranteed to be default background colour. It has been already used to
clear the background of area being painted. It can be modified.
- Pen is guaranteed to be 1-wide 'black' (or whatever is the proper colour) pen for
drawing framing rectangle. It can be changed as well.
