Detailed Description

UFrame: iconifiable toplevel window.

In contrast with Dialogs, Frames can be iconified and they are not hidden when the Main Frame is iconified. The Main Frame is the first Frame that was added to the UAppli. Usually, an application has only one Frame. But it can have several frames if it is useful to have several iconifiable windows.

See class UWin for inherited methods and other important remarks.

void ubit::UFrame::close

(

int

status = 0

)

[virtual]

closes this window and quits the application if this window is the main frame.

the main frame is the first UFrame that was added to the UAppli.

See also:

: UWin::close(), UAppli::quit(), UFrame::isMainFrame()

Reimplemented from ubit::UWin.

UStyle * ubit::UFrame::createStyle

(

)

[static]

< important: all subclasses MUST contain this declaration. static function that returns the UStyle of this class (see details!).

this macro defines the UClass that corresponds to this class and:

• classid() : a static function that returns this UClass
• getClass() : a virtual function that returns this UClass

  See also:

  : class UClass, macro UBIT_ELEMENT_CLASS(). this function MUST be redefined by subclasses that use another UStyle.

Reimplemented from ubit::UDialog.

bool ubit::UFrame::isMainFrame

(

)

const

is this frame the "main frame"? (

See also:

: UAppli)

bool ubit::UFrame::realize

(

)

[virtual]

[impl] initializes the window and its children.

this function called when the window is shown for the first time

Reimplemented from ubit::UDialog.

virtual void ubit::UFrame::show

(

bool

state = true

)

[virtual]

shows/hides the window.

windows are not shown by default; show() must be called to make them visible. Note that the window size will not change after the first call to show(). setSize() or updateSize() must be called to change its size.

See also:

also: showModal() to open a modal window.

Reimplemented from ubit::UDialog.
