Detailed Description

A list event holds information about events associated with wxListCtrl objects.

Events using this class

The following event handler macros redirect the events to member function handlers 'func' with prototypes like:

void handlerFuncName(wxListEvent& event)

Event macros:

  • EVT_LIST_BEGIN_DRAG(id, func):
    Begin dragging with the left mouse button.
  • EVT_LIST_BEGIN_RDRAG(id, func):
    Begin dragging with the right mouse button.
  • EVT_LIST_BEGIN_LABEL_EDIT(id, func):
    Begin editing a label. This can be prevented by calling Veto().
  • EVT_LIST_END_LABEL_EDIT(id, func):
    Finish editing a label. This can be prevented by calling Veto().
  • EVT_LIST_DELETE_ITEM(id, func):
    Delete an item.
  • EVT_LIST_DELETE_ALL_ITEMS(id, func):
    Delete all items.
  • EVT_LIST_ITEM_SELECTED(id, func):
    The item has been selected.
  • EVT_LIST_ITEM_DESELECTED(id, func):
    The item has been deselected.
  • EVT_LIST_ITEM_ACTIVATED(id, func):
    The item has been activated (ENTER or double click).
  • EVT_LIST_ITEM_FOCUSED(id, func):
    The currently focused item has changed.
  • EVT_LIST_ITEM_MIDDLE_CLICK(id, func):
    The middle mouse button has been clicked on an item.
  • EVT_LIST_ITEM_RIGHT_CLICK(id, func):
    The right mouse button has been clicked on an item.
  • EVT_LIST_KEY_DOWN(id, func):
    A key has been pressed. GetIndex() may be -1 if no item is selected.
  • EVT_LIST_INSERT_ITEM(id, func):
    An item has been inserted.
  • EVT_LIST_COL_CLICK(id, func):
    A column (m_col) has been left-clicked.
  • EVT_LIST_COL_RIGHT_CLICK(id, func):
    A column (m_col) (which can be -1 if the click occurred outside any column) has been right-clicked.
  • EVT_LIST_COL_BEGIN_DRAG(id, func):
    The user started resizing a column - can be vetoed.
  • EVT_LIST_COL_DRAGGING(id, func):
    The divider between columns is being dragged.

Public Member Functions

 wxListEvent (wxEventType commandType=wxEVT_NULL, int id=0)
 Constructor.
 
long GetCacheFrom () const
 For EVT_LIST_CACHE_HINT event only: return the first item which the list control advises us to cache.
 
long GetCacheTo () const
 For EVT_LIST_CACHE_HINT event only: return the last item (inclusive) which the list control advises us to cache.
 
int GetColumn () const
 The column position: it is only used with COL events.
 
wxUIntPtr GetData () const
 The data.
 
int GetImage () const
 The image.
 
long GetIndex () const
 The item index.
 
const wxListItemGetItem () const

wxPoint GetPoint () const
 The position of the mouse pointer if the event is a drag event.
 
const wxStringGetText () const
 The text.
 
bool IsEditCancelled () const
 This method only makes sense for EVT_LIST_END_LABEL_EDIT message and returns true if it the label editing has been cancelled by the user (GetLabel() returns an empty string in this case but it doesn't allow the application to distinguish between really cancelling the edit and the admittedly rare case when the user wants to rename it to an empty string).
 
- Public Member Functions inherited from wxNotifyEvent
 wxNotifyEvent (wxEventType eventType=wxEVT_NULL, int id=0)
 Constructor (used internally by wxWidgets only).
 
void Allow ()
 This is the opposite of Veto(): it explicitly allows the event to be processed.
 
bool IsAllowed () const
 Returns true if the change is allowed (Veto() hasn't been called) or false otherwise (if it was).
 
void Veto ()
 Prevents the change announced by this event from happening.
 
- Public Member Functions inherited from wxCommandEvent
 wxCommandEvent (wxEventType commandEventType=wxEVT_NULL, int id=0)
 Constructor.

int GetSelection () const
 Returns item index for a listbox or choice selection event (not valid for a deselection).
 
wxString GetString () const
 Returns item string for a listbox or choice selection event.
 
bool IsChecked () const
 This method can be used with checkbox and menu events: for the checkboxes, the method returns true for a selection event and false for a deselection one.
 
bool IsSelection () const
 For a listbox or similar event, returns true if it is a selection, false if it is a deselection.
 
void SetClientData (void *clientData)
 Sets the client data for this event.
 
void SetClientObject (wxClientData *clientObject)
 Sets the client object for this event.
 
void SetExtraLong (long extraLong)
 Sets the m_extraLong member.
 
void SetInt (int intCommand)
 Sets the m_commandInt member.
 
void SetString (const wxString &string)
 Sets the m_commandString member.
