MODULE SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION
wx_object - Generic wx object behaviour
This is a behaviour module that can be used for "sub classing" wx objects. It works like a regular gen_server module and creates a server per object.
NOTE: Currently no form of inheritance is implemented.
The user module should export:
init(Args) should return
{wxObject, State} | {wxObject, State, Timeout} |
ignore | {stop, Reason}
handle_call(Msg, {From, Tag}, State) should return
{reply, Reply, State} | {reply, Reply, State, Timeout} |
{noreply, State} | {noreply, State, Timeout} |
{stop, Reason, Reply, State}
Asynchronous window event handling:
handle_event(#wx{}, State) should return
{noreply, State} | {noreply, State, Timeout} | {stop, Reason, State}
Info is message e.g. {'EXIT', P, R}, {nodedown, N}, ...
handle_info(Info, State) should return , ...
{noreply, State} | {noreply, State, Timeout} | {stop, Reason, State}
When stop is returned in one of the functions above with Reason =
normal | shutdown | Term, terminate(State) is called. It lets the
user module clean up, it is always called when server terminates or
when wxObject() in the driver is deleted. If the Parent process
terminates the Module:terminate/2 function is called.
terminate(Reason, State)
Example:
-module(myDialog). -export([new/2, show/1, destroy/1]). %% API -export([init/1, handle_call/3, handle_event/2, handle_info/2, code_change/3, terminate/2]). new/2, showModal/1, destroy/1]). %% Callbacks %% Client API new(Parent, Msg) -> wx_object:start(?MODULE, [Parent,Id], []). show(Dialog) -> wx_object:call(Dialog, show_modal). destroy(Dialog) -> wx_object:call(Dialog, destroy). %% Server Implementation ala gen_server init([Parent, Str]) -> Dialog = wxDialog:new(Parent, 42, "Testing", []), ... wxDialog:connect(Dialog, command_button_clicked), {Dialog, MyState}. handle_call(show, _From, State) -> wxDialog:show(State#state.win), {reply, ok, State}; ... handle_event(#wx{}, State) -> io:format("Users clicked button~n",[]), {noreply, State}; ...
EXPORTS
start(Mod, Args, Options) -> wxWindow() (see module wxWindow)
Types:
start(Name, Mod, Args, Options) -> wxWindow() (see module wxWindow)
Types:
start_link(Mod, Args, Options) -> wxWindow() (see module wxWindow)
Types:
start_link(Name, Mod, Args, Options) -> wxWindow() (see module wxWindow)
Types:
call(Ref::wxObject() | atom() | pid(), Request::term()) -> term()
Make a call to a wx_object server. The call waits until it gets a result. Invokes handle_call(Request, From, State) in the server
call(Ref::wxObject() | atom() | pid(), Request::term(), Timeout::integer()) -> term()
Make a call to a wx_object server with a timeout. Invokes handle_call(Request, From, State) in server
cast(Ref::wxObject() | atom() | pid(), Request::term()) -> ok
