xtd::forms::checked_list_box Class Reference

Definition

Displays a xtd::forms::list_box in which a check box is displayed to the left of each item.

Header
#include <xtd/forms/checked_list_box>
Namespace
xtd::forms
Library
xtd.forms
Remarks
This control presents a list of items that the user can navigate by using the keyboard or the scrollbar on the right side of the control. The user can place a check mark by one or more items and the checked items can be navigated with the checked_list_box::checked_item_collection and checked_list_box::checked_index_collection.
To add objects to the list at run time, assign an array of object with the push_range method. The list then displays the default string value for each object. You can add individual items to the list with the push method.
The checked_list_box object supports three states through the check_state enumeration: checked, indeterminate, and unchecked. You must set the state of indeterminate in the code because the user interface for a checked_list_box does not provide a mechanism to do so.
If use_tab_stops is true, the checked_list_box will recognize and expand tab characters in an item's text, creating columns. These tab stops are preset and cannot be changed. To use custom tab stops, set use_tab_stops to false, set use_custom_tab_offsets to true, and add the custom values to the custom_tab_offsets collection.
Note
If the use_compatible_text_rendering property is false, the custom_tab_offsets property will be ignored and replaced with standard tab offsets.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ checked_index_collection

Encapsulates the collection of indexes of checked items (including items in an indeterminate state)

◆ checked_item_collection

Encapsulates the collection of checked items, including items in an indeterminate state, in a checked_list_box control.

◆ object_collection

◆ selected_object_collection

Represents the collection of selected items in the list_box.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ checked_list_box()

xtd::forms::checked_list_box::checked_list_box ( )

Initializes a new instance of the checked_list_box class.

Remarks
By default, checked_list_box uses set_style and the resize_redraw value of control_styles to specify that the control is redrawn when resized.

Member Function Documentation

◆ allow_selection()

bool xtd::forms::checked_list_box::allow_selection ( ) const
overrideprotectedvirtualnoexcept

Gets a value indicating whether the list enables selection of list items.

Returns
true if the list enables list item selection; otherwise, false. The default is true.

Reimplemented from xtd::forms::list_control.

◆ begin_update()

void xtd::forms::checked_list_box::begin_update ( )

Maintains performance while items are added to the checked_list_box one at a time by preventing the control from drawing until the end_update() method is called.

Remarks
The preferred way to add multiple items to the list_box is to use the push_back_range method of the list_box::object_collection class (through the items property of the list_box). This enables you to add an array of items to the list in a single operation. However, if you want to add items one at a time using the Add method of the list_box::object_collection class, you can use the begin_update method to prevent the control from repainting the list_box each time an item is added to the list. Once you have completed the task of adding items to the list, call the end_update method to enable the list_box to repaint. This way of adding items can prevent flickered drawing of the list_box when a large number of items are being added to the list.

◆ checked_indices()

checked_index_collection xtd::forms::checked_list_box::checked_indices ( ) const
noexcept

Collection of checked indexes in this checked_list_box.

Returns
The checked_list_box::checked_index_collection collection for the checked_list_box.
Remarks
The collection of checked indexes is a subset of the indexes into the collection of all items in the checked_list_box control. These indexes specify items in a checked or indeterminate state.

◆ checked_items()

checked_item_collection xtd::forms::checked_list_box::checked_items ( ) const
noexcept

Collection of checked items in this checked_list_box.

Returns
The checked_list_box::checked_item_collection collection for the checked_list_box.
Remarks
The collection is a subset of the objects in the items collection, representing only those items whose xtd::forms::check_state is checked or indeterminate. The indexes in this collection are in ascending order.

◆ create() [1/2]

static checked_list_box xtd::forms::checked_list_box::create ( const object_collection items,
size_t  selected_index = object_collection::npos,
const drawing::point location = {-1, -1},
const drawing::size size = {-1, -1},
const xtd::ustring name = xtd::ustring::empty_string 
)
static

A factory to create an xtd::forms::checked_list_box with specified items, selected_index, location ,size, and name.

Parameters
itemsThe checked_list_box::object_collection collection representing the items in the checked_list_box.
selected_indexA zero-based index of the currently selected item. The xtd::forms::checked_list_box::object_collection::npos is returned if no item is selected.
locationA xtd::drawing::point that represent location of the xtd::forms::checked_list_box.
sizeA xtd::drawing::size that represent size of the xtd::forms::checked_list_box.
Returns
New xtd::forms::checked_list_box created.

◆ create() [2/2]

static checked_list_box xtd::forms::checked_list_box::create ( const control parent,
const object_collection items,
size_t  selected_index,
const drawing::point location = {-1, -1},
const drawing::size size = {-1, -1},
const xtd::ustring name = xtd::ustring::empty_string 
)
static

A factory to create an xtd::forms::checked_list_box with specified parent, items, selected_index, location ,size, and name.

Parameters
parentThe parent that contains the new created xtd::forms::checked_list_box.
itemsThe checked_list_box::object_collection collection representing the items in the checked_list_box.
selected_indexA zero-based index of the currently selected item. The xtd::forms::checked_list_box::object_collection::npos is returned if no item is selected.

sizeA xtd::drawing::size that represent size of the xtd::forms::checked_list_box.
Returns
New xtd::forms::checked_list_box created.

◆ create_params()

forms::create_params xtd::forms::checked_list_box::create_params ( ) const
overrideprotectedvirtualnoexcept

Gets the required creation parameters when the control handle is created.

Returns
A create_params that contains the required creation parameters when the handle to the control is created.
Remarks
The create_params property should not be overridden and used to adjust the properties of your derived control. Properties such as the create_params::caption, create_params::width, and create_params::height should be set by the corresponding properties in your control such as control::text, control::width and control::height. The create_params should only be extended when you are wrapping a standard Windows control class or to set styles not provided by the forms namespace.
Notes for inheritors
When overriding the create_params property in a derived class, use the base class's create_params property to extend the base implementation. Otherwise, you must provide all the implementation.

Reimplemented from xtd::forms::control.

◆ end_update()

void xtd::forms::checked_list_box::end_update ( )

Resumes painting the checked_list_box control after painting is suspended by the begin_update method.

Remarks
The preferred way to add multiple items to the list_box is to use the push_back_range method of the list_box::object_collection class (through the items property of the list_box). This enables you to add an array of items to the list in a single operation. However, if you want to add items one at a time using the Add method of the list_box::object_collection class, you can use the begin_update method to prevent the control from repainting the list_box each time an item is added to the list. Once you have completed the task of adding items to the list, call the end_update method to enable the list_box to repaint. This way of adding items can prevent flickered drawing of the list_box when a large number of items are being added to the list.

◆ get_item_check_state()

forms::check_state xtd::forms::checked_list_box::get_item_check_state ( size_t  index) const

Returns a value indicating the check state of the current item.

Parameters
indexThe index of the item.
Returns
One of the check_state values.
Remarks
The get_item_check_state method provides the ability to get the check_state value of an item, given the index. If you never set the check state of an item to indeterminate, then use the getItem_checked method.

◆ get_item_checked()

bool xtd::forms::checked_list_box::get_item_checked ( size_t  index) const

Returns a value indicating whether the specified item is checked.

Parameters
indexThe index of the item.
Returns
true if the item is checked; otherwise, false.
Remarks
get_item_checked returns true if the value of CheckState is checked or indeterminate for the item. To determine the specific state the item is in, use the get_item_check_state method.

◆ get_item_text()

const xtd::ustring& xtd::forms::checked_list_box::get_item_text ( size_t  index) const

Returns the text value of the current item.

Parameters
indexThe index of the item.
Returns
A string that represent the text value of the current item.

◆ items() [1/3]

object_collection& xtd::forms::checked_list_box::items ( )
noexcept

Gets the collection of items in this checked_list_box.

Returns
The checked_list_box::object_collection collection representing the items in the checked_list_box.
Remarks
The items property enables you to obtain a reference to the list of items that are currently stored in a checked_list_box control. With this reference, you can add items, remove items, and obtain a count of the items in the collection.
Examples:
demo.cpp.

◆ items() [2/3]

const object_collection& xtd::forms::checked_list_box::items ( ) const
noexcept

Gets the collection of items in this checked_list_box.

Returns
The checked_list_box::object_collection collection representing the items in the checked_list_box.
Remarks
The items property enables you to obtain a reference to the list of items that are currently stored in a checked_list_box control. With this reference, you can add items, remove items, and obtain a count of the items in the collection.

◆ items() [3/3]

const list_box& xtd::forms::checked_list_box::items ( const object_collection items)

Sets the collection of items in this checked_list_box.

Parameters
itemsThe checked_list_box::object_collection collection representing the items in the checked_list_box.

overrideprotectedvirtual

Raises the xtd::forms::control::handle_created event.

Parameters
eAn xtd::event_args that contains the event data.

Reimplemented from xtd::forms::control.

◆ on_item_check()

virtual void xtd::forms::checked_list_box::on_item_check ( item_check_event_args e)
protectedvirtual

Raises the checked_list_box::item_check event.

Parameters
eAn item_check_event_args that contains the event data.

◆ on_selected_value_changed()

void xtd::forms::checked_list_box::on_selected_value_changed ( const event_args e)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Raises the list_control::selected_value_changed event.

Reimplemented from xtd::forms::list_control.

◆ selected_index()

list_control& xtd::forms::checked_list_box::selected_index ( size_t  selected_index)
overridevirtual

When overridden in a derived class, Sets the zero-based index of the currently selected item.

Parameters
selected_indexA zero-based index of the currently selected item. The xtd::forms::checked_list_box::object_collection::npos is returned if no item is selected.
Returns
Current list_control.

Implements xtd::forms::list_control.

Examples:
demo.cpp.

◆ selected_indices()

std::vector<size_t> xtd::forms::checked_list_box::selected_indices ( ) const
overridevirtualnoexcept

Gets a collection that contains the zero-based indexes of all currently selected items in the list_box.

A list_box.selected_index_collection containing the indexes of the currently selected items in the control. If no items are currently selected, an empty ListBox.SelectedIndexCollection is returned.

Remarks
For a multiple-selection list_box, this property returns a collection containing the indexes to all items that are selected in the list_box. For a single-selection ListBox, this property returns a collection containing a single element containing the index of the only selected item in the list_box. For more information about how to manipulate the items of the collection, see list_box::selected_index_collection.
The list_box class provides a number of ways to reference selected items. Instead of using the selected_indices property to obtain the index position of the currently selected item in a single-selection list_box, you can use the selected_index property. If you want to obtain the item that is currently selected in the list_box, instead of the index position of the item, use the selected_item property. In addition, you can use the selected_items property if you want to obtain all the selected items in a multiple-selection list_box.

Reimplemented from xtd::forms::list_box.

◆ selected_item() [1/2]

const item& xtd::forms::checked_list_box::selected_item ( ) const
noexcept

Gets the currently selected item in the checked_list_box.

Returns
An object that represents the current selection in the control.
Remarks
For a standard list_box, you can use this property to determine which item is selected in the list_box. If the selection_mode property of the list_box is set to either selection_mode::multi_simple or selection_mode::multi_extended (which indicates a multiple-selection list_box) and multiple items are selected in the list, this property can return any selected item.
To retrieve a collection containing all selected items in a multiple-selection list_box, use the selected_items property. If you want to obtain the index position of the currently selected item in the list_box, use the selected_index property. In addition, you can use the selected_indices property to obtain all the selected indexes in a multiple-selection list_box.

◆ selected_item() [2/2]

checked_list_box& xtd::forms::checked_list_box::selected_item ( const item selected_item)

Sets the currently selected item in the list_box.

Parameters
selected_itemAn object that represents the current selection in the control.
Remarks
For a standard list_box, you can use this property to determine which item is selected in the list_box. If the selection_mode property of the list_box is set to either selection_mode::multi_simple or selection_mode::multi_extended (which indicates a multiple-selection list_box) and multiple items are selected in the list, this property can return any selected item.
To retrieve a collection containing all selected items in a multiple-selection list_box, use the selected_items property. If you want to obtain the index position of the currently selected item in the list_box, use the selected_index property. In addition, you can use the selected_indices property to obtain all the selected indexes in a multiple-selection list_box.

◆ selected_items()

selected_object_collection xtd::forms::checked_list_box::selected_items ( ) const
noexcept

Gets a collection containing the currently selected items in the list_box.

Returns
A list_box::selected_object_collection containing the currently selected items in the control.
Remarks
For a multiple-selection list_box, this property returns a collection containing all items that are selected in the list_box. For a single-selection list_box, this property returns a collection containing a single element containing the only selected item in the list_box. For more information about how to manipulate the items of the collection, see list_box::selected_object_collection.
The list_box class provides a number of ways to reference selected items. Instead of using the selected_items property to obtain the currently selected item in a single-selection list_box, you can use the selected_item property. If you want to obtain the index position of an item that is currently selected in the list_box, instead of the item itself, use the selected_index property. In addition, you can use the selected_indices property if you want to obtain the index positions of all selected items in a multiple-selection list_box.
