Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ wxPropertyCategory() [1/2]

wxPropertyCategory::wxPropertyCategory ( )

Default constructor is only used in special cases.

◆ wxPropertyCategory() [2/2]

wxPropertyCategory::wxPropertyCategory ( const wxString label,
const wxString name = wxPG_LABEL 
)

◆ ~wxPropertyCategory()

wxPropertyCategory::~wxPropertyCategory ( )

Member Function Documentation

◆ GetTextExtent()

int wxPropertyCategory::GetTextExtent ( const wxWindow wnd,
const wxFont font 
) const

◆ GetValueAsString()

virtual wxString wxPropertyCategory::GetValueAsString ( int  argFlags = 0) const
virtual

Returns text representation of property's value.

Parameters
argFlagsIf 0 (default value), then displayed string is returned. If wxPG_FULL_VALUE is set, returns complete, storable string value instead of displayable. If wxPG_EDITABLE_VALUE is set, returns string value that must be editable in textctrl. If wxPG_COMPOSITE_FRAGMENT is set, returns text that is appropriate to display as a part of string property's composite text representation.
Remarks
In older versions, this function used to be overridden to convert property's value into a string representation. This function is now handled by ValueToString(), and overriding this function now will result in run-time assertion failure.

Reimplemented from wxPGProperty.

◆ ValueToString()

virtual wxString wxPropertyCategory::ValueToString ( wxVariant value,
int  argFlags 
) const
virtual

Converts property value into a text representation.

Parameters
valueValue to be converted.
argFlagsIf 0 (default value), then displayed string is returned. If wxPG_FULL_VALUE is set, returns complete, storable string value instead of displayable. If wxPG_EDITABLE_VALUE is set, returns string value that must be editable in textctrl. If wxPG_COMPOSITE_FRAGMENT is set, returns text that is appropriate to display as a part of string property's composite text representation.
Remarks
Default implementation calls GenerateComposedValue().

Reimplemented from wxPGProperty.
