Windows

windowOnMouse :: Window a -> Bool -> (EventMouse -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Set a mouse event handler for a window. The first argument determines whether mouse motion events (MouseMotion) are handled or not.

windowOnKeyChar :: Window a -> (EventKey -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Set an event handler for translated key presses.

windowOnKeyDown :: Window a -> (EventKey -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Set an event handler for untranslated key presses. If skipCurrentEvent is not called, the corresponding windowOnKeyChar eventhandler won't be called.

windowOnKeyUp :: Window a -> (EventKey -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Set an event handler for (untranslated) key releases.

windowAddOnClose :: Window a -> IO () -> IO ()

Adds a close handler to the currently installed close handlers.

windowOnClose :: Window a -> IO () -> IO ()

Set an event handler that is called when the user tries to close a frame or dialog. Don't forget to call the previous handler or frameDestroy explicitly or otherwise the frame won't be closed.

windowOnDestroy :: Window a -> IO () -> IO ()

Set an event handler that is called when the window is destroyed. Note: does not seem to work on windows.

windowAddOnDelete :: Window a -> IO () -> IO ()

Add a delete-event handler to the current installed delete-event handlers. 

 windowAddOnDelete window new
   = do prev <- windowGetOnDelete window
        windowOnDelete window (do{ new; prev })

windowOnDelete :: Window a -> IO () -> IO ()

Set an event handler that is called when the window is deleted. Use with care as the window itself is in a deletion state.

windowOnCreate :: Window a -> IO () -> IO ()

Set an event handler that is called when the window is created.

windowOnIdle :: Window a -> IO Bool -> IO ()

An idle event is generated in idle time. The handler should return whether more idle processing is needed (True) or otherwise the event loop goes into a passive waiting state.

windowOnTimer :: Window a -> IO () -> IO ()

A timer event is generated by an attached timer, see windowTimerAttach. Broken! (use timerOnCommand instead).

windowOnSize :: Window a -> IO () -> IO ()

Set an event handler that is called when the window is resized.

windowOnFocus :: Window a -> (Bool -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Set an event handler that is called when the window gets or loses the focus. The event parameter is True when the window gets the focus.

Set an event handler that is called when the window is activated or deactivated. The event parameter is True when the window is activated.

windowOnPaint :: Window a -> (DC () -> Rect -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Set an event handler for paint events. The implementation uses an intermediate buffer for non-flickering redraws. The device context (DC) is always cleared before the paint handler is called. The paint handler also gets the currently visible view area as an argument (adjusted for scrolling). Note: you can not set both a windowOnPaintRaw and windowOnPaint handler!

windowOnPaintRaw :: Window a -> (DC () -> Rect -> [Rect] -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Set an event handler for raw paint events. Draws directly to the paint device context (PaintDC) and the DC is not cleared when the handler is called. The handler takes two other arguments: the view rectangle and a list of dirty rectangles. The rectangles contain logical coordinates and are already adjusted for scrolled windows. Note: you can not set both a windowOnPaintRaw and windowOnPaint handler!

windowOnContextMenu :: Window a -> IO () -> IO ()

A context menu event is generated when the user righ-clicks in a window or presses shift-F10.

windowOnScroll :: Window a -> (EventScroll -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Set a scroll event handler.

htmlWindowOnHtmlEvent :: WXCHtmlWindow a -> Bool -> (EventHtml -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Set a html event handler for a html window. The first argument determines whether hover events (HtmlCellHover) are handled or not.

Event handlers

evtHandlerOnMenuCommand :: EvtHandler a -> Id -> IO () -> IO ()

A menu event is generated when the user selects a menu item. You should install this handler on the window that owns the menubar or a popup menu.

evtHandlerOnEndProcess :: EvtHandler a -> (Int -> Int -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Called when a process is ended with the process pid and exitcode.

evtHandlerOnInput :: EvtHandler b -> (String -> StreamStatus -> IO ()) -> InputStream a -> Int -> IO ()

Install an event handler on an input stream. The handler is called whenever input is read (or when an error occurred). The third parameter gives the size of the input batches. The orignal input stream should no longer be referenced after this call!

evtHandlerOnInputSink :: EvtHandler b -> (String -> StreamStatus -> IO ()) -> InputSink a -> IO ()

Install an event handler on a specific input sink. It is advised to use the evtHandlerOnInput whenever retrieval of the handler is not necessary.

evtHandlerOnTaskBarIconEvent :: TaskBarIcon a -> (EventTaskBarIcon -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Set a taskbar icon event handler.

Instances

Current event

propagateEvent :: IO ()

Pass the event on the next wxWindows event handler, either on this window or its parent. Always call this method when you do not process the event. (This function just call skipCurrentEvent).

skipCurrentEvent :: IO ()

Pass the event on the next wxWindows event handler, either on this window or its parent. Always call this method when you do not process the event. Note: The use of propagateEvent is encouraged as it is a much better name than skipCurrentEvent. This function name is just for better compatibility with wxWindows :-)

withCurrentEvent :: (Event () -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Do something with the current event if we are calling from an event handler.

Primitive

appOnInit :: IO () -> IO ()

Installs an init handler and starts the event loop. Note: the closure is deleted when initialization is complete, and than the Haskell init function is started.

Client data

treeCtrlSetItemClientData :: TreeCtrl a -> TreeItem -> IO () -> b -> IO ()

Attach a haskell value to tree item data. The IO action executed when the object is deleted.

evtHandlerWithClientData :: EvtHandler a -> b -> ((b -> IO ()) -> IO b -> IO c) -> IO c

Use attached haskell data locally in a type-safe way.

evtHandlerSetClientData :: EvtHandler a -> IO () -> b -> IO ()

Attach a haskell value to an object derived from EvtHandler. The IO action executed when the object is deleted.

objectWithClientData :: WxObject a -> b -> ((b -> IO ()) -> IO b -> IO c) -> IO c

Use attached haskell data locally. This makes it type-safe.

objectSetClientData :: WxObject a -> IO () -> b -> IO ()

Attach haskell value to an arbitrary object. The IO action is executed when the object is deleted. Note: evtHandlerSetClientData is preferred when possible.

Input sink

inputSinkEventLastString :: InputSinkEvent a -> IO String

Read the input from an InputSinkEvent.

Keys

type KeyCode = Int

A low-level virtual key code.

modifiersToAccelFlags :: Modifiers -> Int

Tranform modifiers into an accelerator modifiers code.

keyCodeToKey :: KeyCode -> Key

A virtual key code to a key.

keyToKeyCode :: Key -> KeyCode

From a key to a virtual key code.

Events

windowOnEvent :: Window a -> [EventId] -> handler -> (Event () -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Set a generic event handler on a certain window.

windowOnEventEx :: Window a -> [EventId] -> handler -> (Bool -> IO ()) -> (Event () -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Set a generic event handler on a certain window. Takes also a computation that is run when the event handler is destroyed -- the argument is True if the owner is deleted, and False if the event handler is disconnected for example.

Generic

type OnEvent = (Bool -> IO ()) -> (Event () -> IO ()) -> IO ()

Type synonym to make the type signatures shorter for the documentation :-)

evtHandlerOnEvent :: EvtHandler a -> Id -> Id -> [EventId] -> handler -> OnEvent

Sets a generic event handler, just as evtHandlerOnEventConnect but first disconnects any event handlers for the same kind of events.

evtHandlerOnEventConnect :: EvtHandler a -> Id -> Id -> [EventId] -> state -> OnEvent

Sets a generic event handler on an EvtHandler object. The call (evtHandlerOnEventConnect firstId lastId eventIds state destroy handler object) sets an event handler handler on object. The eventhandler gets called whenever an event happens that is in the list eventIds on an object with an Id between firstId and lastId (use -1 for any object). The state is any kind of haskell data that is attached to this handler. It can be retrieved via unsafeGetHandlerState. Normally, the state is the event handler itself. This allows the current event handler to be retrieved via calls to buttonGetOnCommand for example. The destroy action is called when the event handler is destroyed. Its argument is True when the owner is deleted, and False if the event handler is just disconnected.

Unsafe

unsafeTreeCtrlGetItemClientData :: TreeCtrl a -> TreeItem -> IO (Maybe b)

Retrieve an attached haskell value to a tree item, previously attached with treeCtrlSetItemClientData.

unsafeEvtHandlerGetClientData :: EvtHandler a -> IO (Maybe b)

Retrieve an attached haskell value, previously attached with evtHandlerSetClientData.

unsafeObjectGetClientData :: WxObject a -> IO (Maybe b)
