Detailed Description

Table: Selection list with multiple columns. The user can select exactly one row (with all its columns) from that list. Each cell (each column within each row) has a label text and an optional icon (*).

This widget is similar to SelectionBox, but it has several columns for each item (each row). If just one column is desired, consider using SelectionBox instead.

Note: This is not something like a spread sheet, and it doesn't pretend or want to be. Actions are performed on rows, not on individual cells (columns within one row).

(*) Not all UIs (in particular not text-based UIs) support displaying icons, so an icon should never be an exclusive means to display any kind of information.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

YTable::YTable ( YWidget parent,
YTableHeader header,
bool  multiSelection 
) [protected]

Constructor.

'header' describes the table's headers: Number of columns, column headings, and column alignment. The widget assumes ownership of this object and will delete it when appropriate. The header cannot be changed after creating the widget.

'multiSelection' indicates whether or not the user can select multiple items at the same time (e.g., with shift-click or ctrl-click). This can only be set in the constructor.

YTable::~YTable ( ) [virtual]

Member Function Documentation

YAlignmentType YTable::alignment ( int  column) const

Return the alignment for the specified column.

Definition at line 106 of file YTable.cc.

Here is the call graph for this function:

virtual void YTable::cellChanged ( const YTableCell cell) [pure virtual]

Notification that a cell (its text and/or its icon) was changed from the outside. Applications are required to call this whenever a table cell is changed after adding the corresponding table item (the row) to the table widget.

Derived classes are required to implement this and update the display accordingly.

Note that the position of this cell can be retrieved with cell->column() and cell->itemIndex().

int YTable::columns ( ) const

Return the number of columns of this table.

Definition at line 85 of file YTable.cc.

Here is the call graph for this function:

YPropertyValue YTable::getProperty ( const std::string &  propertyName) [virtual]

Get a property. Reimplemented from YWidget.

This method may throw YUIPropertyExceptions.

Reimplemented from YWidget.

Definition at line 207 of file YTable.cc.

Here is the call graph for this function:

bool YTable::hasColumn ( int  column) const

Return 'true' if this table has a column no. 'column' (counting from 0 on).

Definition at line 92 of file YTable.cc.

Here is the call graph for this function:

bool YTable::hasMultiSelection ( ) const

Return 'true' if the user can select multiple items at the same time (e.g., with shift-click or ctrl-click).

Definition at line 144 of file YTable.cc.

Here is the call graph for this function:

std::string YTable::header ( int  column) const

Return the header text for the specified column.

Definition at line 99 of file YTable.cc.

Here is the call graph for this function:

bool YTable::immediateMode ( ) const

Deliver even more events than with notify() set.

With "notify" alone, a table widget sends an ActivatedEvent when the user double-clicks an item or presses the "space" key on it. It does not send an event when the user just sends another item.

With "immediate", it also sends a SelectionChangedEvent when the user selects another item. "immediate" implicitly includes "notify".

Definition at line 113 of file YTable.cc.

bool YTable::keepSorting ( ) const

Return 'true' if the sort order is to be kept in item insertion order, i.e. if sorting the table by clicking on a column header should be disabled.

Definition at line 130 of file YTable.cc.

const YPropertySet & YTable::propertySet ( ) [virtual]

Return this class's property set. This also initializes the property upon the first call.

Reimplemented from YWidget.

Reimplemented from YWidget.

Definition at line 151 of file YTable.cc.

Here is the call graph for this function:

void YTable::setImmediateMode ( bool  immediateMode = true)

Set immediateMode() on or off.

Definition at line 120 of file YTable.cc.

Here is the call graph for this function:

void YTable::setKeepSorting ( bool  keepSorting) [virtual]

Switch between sorting by item insertion order (keepSorting: true) or allowing the user to sort by an arbitrary column (by clicking on the column header).

Derived classes can overwrite this function, but they should call this base class function in the new implementation.

Definition at line 137 of file YTable.cc.

Here is the call graph for this function:

bool YTable::setProperty ( const std::string &  propertyName,
const YPropertyValue val 
) [virtual]

Set a property. Reimplemented from YWidget.

This function may throw YUIPropertyExceptions.

This function returns 'true' if the value was successfully set and 'false' if that value requires special handling (not in error cases: those are covered by exceptions).

Reimplemented from YWidget.

Definition at line 186 of file YTable.cc.

Here is the call graph for this function:

void YTable::setTableHeader ( YTableHeader newHeader) [protected]

Exchange the previous table header with a new one. This will delete the old YTableHeader object.

If the new header has a different number of columns than the old one, all items will implicitly be deleted.

Definition at line 72 of file YTable.cc.

Here is the call graph for this function:

const char* YTable::userInputProperty ( ) [inline, virtual]

The name of the widget property that will return user input. Inherited from YWidget.

Reimplemented from YWidget.

Definition at line 194 of file YTable.h.

virtual const char* YTable::widgetClass ( ) const [inline, virtual]

Return a descriptive name of this widget class for logging, debugging etc.

Reimplemented from YSelectionWidget.

Definition at line 83 of file YTable.h.
