+ Inheritance diagram for wxBitmapDataObject:

Detailed Description

wxBitmapDataObject is a specialization of wxDataObject for bitmap data.

It can be used without change to paste data into the wxClipboard or a wxDropSource. A user may wish to derive a new class from this class for providing a bitmap on-demand in order to minimize memory consumption when offering data in several formats, such as a bitmap and GIF.

This class may be used as is, but GetBitmap() may be overridden to increase efficiency.

 The method will write the data of the format format to the buffer buf.
 
virtual size_t GetDataSize (const wxDataFormat &format) const =0

virtual size_t GetFormatCount (Direction dir=Get) const =0
 Returns the number of available formats for rendering or setting the data.
 
virtual wxDataFormat GetPreferredFormat (Direction dir=Get) const =0
 Returns the preferred format for either rendering the data (if dir is Get, its default value) or for setting it.
 
virtual bool SetData (const wxDataFormat &format, size_t len, const void *buf)
 Set the data in the format format of the length len provided in the buffer buf.
 
bool IsSupported (const wxDataFormat &format, Direction dir=Get) const
 Returns true if this format is supported.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

wxBitmapDataObject::wxBitmapDataObject ( const wxBitmap bitmap = wxNullBitmap)

Constructor, optionally passing a bitmap (otherwise use SetBitmap() later).

Member Function Documentation

virtual wxBitmap wxBitmapDataObject::GetBitmap ( ) const
virtual

Returns the bitmap associated with the data object.

You may wish to override this method when offering data on-demand, but this is not required by wxWidgets' internals. Use this method to get data in bitmap form from the wxClipboard.

virtual void wxBitmapDataObject::SetBitmap ( const wxBitmap bitmap)
virtual

Sets the bitmap associated with the data object.

This method is called when the data object receives data. Usually there will be no reason to override this function.
