To create a tree or list in GTK+, you need to use the <link
|
|
linkend="GtkTreeModel">GtkTreeModel</link> interface, in
|
|
conjunction with the <link
|
|
linkend="GtkTreeView">GtkTreeView</link> widget.

This widget is designed around a
|
|
<firstterm>Model/View/Controller</firstterm> design and consists
|
|
of four major parts:
|
|
<simplelist>
|
|
<member>the tree view widget (<structname>GtkTreeView</structname>)</member>
|
|
<member>the view column (<structname>GtkTreeViewColumn</structname>)</member>
|
|
<member>the cell renderers (<structname>GtkCellRenderer</structname> etc.)</member>
|
|
<member>and the model interface (<structname>GtkTreeModel</structname>)</member>
|
|
</simplelist>
|
|
The <emphasis>View</emphasis> is composed of the first three,
|
|
while the last is the <emphasis>Model</emphasis>. One of the
|
|
prime benefits of the MVC design is that multiple views can be
|
|
created of a single model. For example, a model mapping the file
|
|
system could be created for a file manager. Many views could be
|
|
created to display various parts of the file system, but only one
|
|
copy need be kept in memory.

<title>Simple Example</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Here is a simple example of using a <link
|
|
linkend="GtkTreeView">GtkTreeView</link> widget in context of the
|
|
other widgets. It simply creates a simple model and view, and
|
|
puts them together. Note that the model is never populated with
|
|
data — that is left as an exercise for the reader. More
|
|
information can be found on this in the <link
|
|
linkend="GtkTreeStore">GtkTreeModel</link> section.
