A single item in a menu.
Since Wt 3.3.0, this item is now a proper widget, which renders a single item in a menu.
An optional contents item can be associated with a menu item, which is inserted and shown in the widget stack of the menu to which this menu item belongs.
A menu item renders as a >li&;lt with additional markup/style classes provided by the theme. Unless you use the bootstrap theme, you will need to provide appropriate CSS.
Wt::WMenuItem::WMenuItem | ( | const WString & | label, |
WWidget * | contents = 0 , |
||
LoadPolicy | policy = LazyLoading |
||
) |
Creates a new item with given label.
The optional contents is a widget that will be shown in the WMenu contents stack when the item is selected. For this widget, a load policy
can be indicated which specifies whether the contents widgets is transmitted only when it the item is activated for the first time (LazyLoading) or transmitted prior to first rendering.
If the menu supports internal path navigation, then a default pathComponent() will be derived from the label
, and can be customized using setPathComponent().
void Wt::WMenuItem::close | ( | ) |
Closes this item.
Hides the item widget and emits WMenu::itemClosed() signal. Only closeable items can be closed.
WWidget * Wt::WMenuItem::contents | ( | ) | const |
Returns the contents widget for this item.
The contents widget is the widget in the WStackedWidget associated with this item.
void* Wt::WMenuItem::data | ( | ) | const |
Returns additional data of the item.
void Wt::WMenuItem::enableAjax | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Progresses to an Ajax-enabled widget.
This method is called when the progressive bootstrap method is used, and support for AJAX has been detected. The default behavior will upgrade the widget's event handling to use AJAX instead of full page reloads, and propagate the call to its children.
You may want to reimplement this method if you want to make changes to widget when AJAX is enabled. You should always call the base implementation.
Reimplemented from Wt::WWebWidget.
std::string Wt::WMenuItem::icon | ( | ) | const |
Returns the item icon path.
bool Wt::WMenuItem::isCheckable | ( | ) | const |
Returns whether the item is checkable.
bool Wt::WMenuItem::isChecked | ( | ) | const |
Returns the checked state.
This is only used when isCheckable() == true
.
bool Wt::WMenuItem::isCloseable | ( | ) | const |
Returns whether the item is closeable.
bool Wt::WMenuItem::isSectionHeader | ( | ) | const |
Returns whether this item is a section header.
bool Wt::WMenuItem::isSelectable | ( | ) | const |
Returns whether the menu item can be selected.
bool Wt::WMenuItem::isSeparator | ( | ) | const |
Returns whether this item is a separator.
WWidget * Wt::WMenuItem::itemWidget | ( | ) |
Returns the widget that represents the item (deprecated).
This returns this.
AnchorTarget Wt::WMenuItem::linkTarget | ( | ) | const |
Returns the link target.
std::string Wt::WMenuItem::pathComponent | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
Returns the path component for this item.
You may want to reimplement this to customize the path component set by the item in the application internal path.
path
component is UTF8 encoded (we may fix the API to use WString in the future). void Wt::WMenuItem::render | ( | WFlags< RenderFlag > | flags | ) | [protected, virtual] |
Renders the widget.
This function renders the widget (or an update for the widget), after this has been scheduled using scheduleRender().
The default implementation will render the widget by serializing changes to JavaScript and HTML. You may want to reimplement this widget if you have been postponing some of the layout / rendering implementation until the latest moment possible. In that case you should make sure you call the base implementation however.
Reimplemented from Wt::WWebWidget.
void Wt::WMenuItem::renderSelected | ( | bool | selected | ) | [virtual] |
Renders the item as selected or unselected.
The default implementation sets the styleclass for itemWidget() to 'item' for an unselected not closeable, 'itemselected' for selected not closeable, 'citem' for an unselected closeable and 'citemselected' for selected closeable item.
Note that this method is called from within a stateless slot implementation, and thus should be stateless as well.
void Wt::WMenuItem::select | ( | ) |
void Wt::WMenuItem::setCheckable | ( | bool | checkable | ) |
Sets if the item is checkable.
When an item is checkable, a checkbox is displayed to the left of the item text (instead of an icon).
void Wt::WMenuItem::setChecked | ( | bool | checked | ) |
Sets the checked state.
This is only used when isCheckable() == true
.
void Wt::WMenuItem::setCloseable | ( | bool | closeable | ) |
Make it possible to close this item interactively or by close().
void Wt::WMenuItem::setData | ( | void * | data | ) |
Sets associated additional data with the item.
You can use this to associate model information with a menu item.
void Wt::WMenuItem::setIcon | ( | const std::string & | path | ) |
void Wt::WMenuItem::setLink | ( | const WLink & | link | ) |
Sets the associated link.
void Wt::WMenuItem::setLinkTarget | ( | AnchorTarget | target | ) |
Sets the link target.
void Wt::WMenuItem::setMenu | ( | WMenu * | menu | ) |
Sets a sub menu.
Ownership of the subMenu
is transferred to the item. In most cases, the sub menu would use the same contents stack as the parent menu.
void Wt::WMenuItem::setPathComponent | ( | const std::string & | path | ) |
Sets the path component for this item.
The path component is used by the menu item in the application internal path (see WApplication::setInternalPath()), when internal paths are enabled (see WMenu::setInternalPathEnabled()) for the menu.
You may specify an empty path
to let a menu item be the "default" menu option.
For example, if WMenu::internalBasePath() is "/examples/"
and pathComponent() for is "charts/"
, then the internal path for the item will be "/examples/charts/"
.
By default, the path is automatically derived from text(). If a literal text is used, the path is based on the text itself, otherwise on the key. It is converted to lower case, and replacing white space and special characters with '_'.
path
should be UTF8 encoded (we may fix the API to use WString in the future). void Wt::WMenuItem::setSelectable | ( | bool | selectable | ) | [virtual] |
Sets whether the menu item can be selected.
Only a menu item that can be selected can be the result of a popup menu selection.
The default value is true
for a normal menu item, and false
for a menu item that has a submenu.
An item that is selectable but is disabled can still not be selected.
Reimplemented from Wt::WWebWidget.
void Wt::WMenuItem::setSubMenu | ( | WMenu * | menu | ) |
Sets a sub menu (deprecated)
void Wt::WMenuItem::setText | ( | const WString & | text | ) |
Sets the text for this item.
Unless a custom path component was defined, the pathComponent() is also updated based on the new text.
The item widget is updated using updateItemWidget().
