Example 2: Property form view

This example is similar to Example 1, but uses a property form view to edit a property sheet using a predefined dialog box.

void RegisterValidators(void)
{
  myFormValidatorRegistry.RegisterValidator((wxString)"real", new wxRealFormValidator);
  myFormValidatorRegistry.RegisterValidator((wxString)"string", new wxStringFormValidator);
  myFormValidatorRegistry.RegisterValidator((wxString)"integer", new wxIntegerFormValidator);
  myFormValidatorRegistry.RegisterValidator((wxString)"bool", new wxBoolFormValidator);
}

void PropertyFormTest(Bool useDialog)
{
  wxPropertySheet *sheet = new wxPropertySheet;

  sheet->AddProperty(new wxProperty("fred", 25.0, "real", new wxRealFormValidator(0.0, 100.0)));
  sheet->AddProperty(new wxProperty("tough choice", (Bool)TRUE, "bool"));
  sheet->AddProperty(new wxProperty("ian", (long)45, "integer", new wxIntegerFormValidator(-50, 50)));
  sheet->AddProperty(new wxProperty("julian", "one", "string"));
  wxStringList *strings = new wxStringList("one", "two", "three", NULL);
  sheet->AddProperty(new wxProperty("constrained", "one", "string", new wxStringFormValidator(strings)));

  wxPropertyFormView *view = new wxPropertyFormView(NULL);

  wxDialogBox *propDialog = NULL;
  wxPropertyFormFrame *propFrame = NULL;
  if (useDialog)
  {
    propDialog = new wxPropertyFormDialog(view, NULL, "Property Form Test", TRUE, -1, -1, 400, 300);
  }
  else
  {
    propFrame = new wxPropertyFormFrame(view, NULL, "Property Form Test", -1, -1, 400, 300);
    propFrame->Initialize();
  }
  
  wxPanel *panel = propDialog ? propDialog : propFrame->GetPropertyPanel();
  panel->SetLabelPosition(wxVERTICAL);
  
  // Add items to the panel
  
  (void) new wxButton(panel, (wxFunction)NULL, "OK", -1, -1, -1, -1, 0, "ok");
  (void) new wxButton(panel, (wxFunction)NULL, "Cancel", -1, -1, 80, -1, 0, "cancel");
  (void) new wxButton(panel, (wxFunction)NULL, "Update", -1, -1, 80, -1, 0, "update");
  (void) new wxButton(panel, (wxFunction)NULL, "Revert", -1, -1, -1, -1, 0, "revert");
  panel->NewLine();
  
  // The name of this text item matches the "fred" property
  (void) new wxText(panel, (wxFunction)NULL, "Fred", "", -1, -1, 90, -1, 0, "fred");
  (void) new wxCheckBox(panel, (wxFunction)NULL, "Yes or no", -1, -1, -1, -1, 0, "tough choice");
  (void) new wxSlider(panel, (wxFunction)NULL, "Sliding scale", 0, -50, 50, 100, -1, -1, wxHORIZONTAL, "ian");
  panel->NewLine();
  (void) new wxListBox(panel, (wxFunction)NULL, "Constrained", wxSINGLE, -1, -1, 100, 90, 0, NULL, 0, "constrained");

  view->AddRegistry(&myFormValidatorRegistry);

  if (useDialog)
  {
    view->ShowView(sheet, propDialog);
    view->AssociateNames();
    view->TransferToDialog();
    propDialog->Centre(wxBOTH);
    propDialog->Show(TRUE);
  }
  else
  {
    view->ShowView(sheet, propFrame->GetPropertyPanel());
    view->AssociateNames();
    view->TransferToDialog();
    propFrame->Centre(wxBOTH);
    propFrame->Show(TRUE);
  }
