Detailed Description

The AbstractModel is a base class for creating your own custom model classes.

It provides a basic implementation of some of the Model class's methods.

Event Delegates for this class:

• AbstractModel::ModelChanged
• AbstractModel::ModelValidate

Member Function Documentation

virtual void VCF::AbstractModel::addModelHandler (  EventHandler *  handler  )  [inline, virtual]

Adds a model listener to the model. Implements VCF::Model.

virtual void VCF::AbstractModel::addModelValidationHandler (  EventHandler *  handler  )  [inline, virtual]

Adds a validation listener to the model. Implements VCF::Model.

virtual void VCF::AbstractModel::empty (   )  [inline, virtual]

clears out the model's data Implements VCF::Model. Reimplemented in VCF::DefaultListModel, VCF::DefaultTableModel, VCF::DefaultTextModel, VCF::DefaultTreeModel, and VCF::Document.

virtual void VCF::AbstractModel::removeModelHandler (  EventHandler *  handler  )  [inline, virtual]

removes a model listener from the model Implements VCF::Model.

virtual void VCF::AbstractModel::removeModelValidationHandler (  EventHandler *  handler  )  [inline, virtual]

removes a validation listener from the model Implements VCF::Model.

virtual void VCF::AbstractModel::validate (   )  [inline, virtual]

validate the model. The implementation for this can vary widely, or even be nonexistant for model's that do not require validation. The basic idea is to call all the listeners in the list , passing in a local variable to the onModelValidate() methods of the listener's. The variable is initialized to true, and if it is still true at the end of the listener iterations, then it is safe to apply the changes to the model, other wise the changes are removed. Implements VCF::Model. Reimplemented in VCF::DefaultTableModel.
