Member Function Documentation

◆ childrenBegin()

virtual YItemIterator YItem::childrenBegin ( )
inlinevirtual

Return an iterator that points to the first child item of this item.

This default implementation returns the 'end' iterator of the class-static always empty _noChildren YItemCollection. It is safe to use this iterator in classic iterator loops:

for ( YItemIterator it = myItem->childrenBegin(); it != myItem->childrenEnd(); ++it ) { ... }

The loop body will only ever be executed if this item is a derived class that actually manages child items.

Reimplemented in YTreeItem.

Definition at line 201 of file YItem.h.

◆ childrenEnd()

virtual YItemIterator YItem::childrenEnd ( )
inlinevirtual

Return an iterator that points after the last child item of this item.

This default implementation returns the 'end' iterator of the class-static always empty _noChildren YItemCollection.

Reimplemented in YTreeItem.

Definition at line 210 of file YItem.h.

◆ debugLabel()

string YItem::debugLabel ( ) const
virtual

Return a descriptive label of this item instance for debugging.

This might be truncated if the original label is too long.

Reimplemented in YTableItem.

Definition at line 44 of file YItem.cc.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ label()

std::string YItem::label ( ) const
inline

Return this item's label.

This is what the user sees in a dialog, so this will usually be a translated text.

Definition at line 97 of file YItem.h.

◆ limitLength()

string YItem::limitLength ( const std::string &  text,
int  limit 
) const

Return a string of maximum 'limit' characters.

Add an ellipsis ("...") if it was truncated.

Definition at line 51 of file YItem.cc.

◆ parent()

virtual YItem* YItem::parent ( ) const
inlinevirtual

Return this item's parent item or 0 if it is a toplevel item.

This default implementation always returns 0. Derived classes that handle children should reimplement this.

Reimplemented in YTreeItem, and YMenuItem.

Definition at line 218 of file YItem.h.

◆ setData()

void YItem::setData ( void *  newData)
inline

Set the opaque data pointer for application use.

Applications can use this to store the pointer to a counterpart of this tree item. It is the application's responsibility to watch for dangling pointers and possibliy deleting the data. All this class ever does with this pointer is to store it.

Definition at line 163 of file YItem.h.

◆ setSelected()

void YItem::setSelected ( bool  sel = true)
inline

Select or unselect this item.

This does not have any effect on any other item; if it is desired that only one item is selected at any time, the caller has to take care of that.

Definition at line 129 of file YItem.h.

◆ setStatus()

void YItem::setStatus ( int  newStatus)
inline

Set the status of this item.

Most widgets only use 0 for "not selected" or nonzero for "selected". Some widgets may make use of other values as well.

Definition at line 143 of file YItem.h.

◆ status()

int YItem::status ( ) const
inline

Return the status of this item.

This is a bit more generalized than 'selected'. Values other than 0 or 1 can mean different things to the application or to the specific widget.
