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
{wxWindow, State} | {wxWindow, State, Timeout} | ignore | {stop, Reason}
Asynchronous window event handling:
handle_event(#wx{}, State) should return
{noreply, State} | {noreply, State, Timeout} | {stop, Reason, State}
The user module can export the following callback functions:
handle_call(Msg, {From, Tag}, State) should return
{reply, Reply, State} | {reply, Reply, State, Timeout} | {noreply, State}
| {noreply, State, Timeout} | {stop, Reason, Reply, State}
handle_cast(Msg, State) should return
{noreply, State} | {noreply, State, Timeout} | {stop, Reason, State}
If the above are not exported but called, the wx_object process will crash. The user module can also export:
Info is message e.g. {'EXIT', P, R}, {nodedown, N}, ...
handle_info(Info, State) should return , ...
{noreply, State} | {noreply, State, Timeout} | {stop, Reason, State}
If a message is sent to the wx_object process when handle_info is not exported, the message will be dropped and ignored.
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 wx_object() 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};
...
