\section{\class{wxDataViewCtrl}}\label{wxdataviewctrl}
This class and its documentation are work in progress and
therefore subject to change.
wxDataViewCtrl is planned to be a control to display data either
in a tree like fashion or in a tabular form or both. So far,
only the tabular form is implemented.
Unlike \helpref{wxListCtrl}{wxlistctrl} wxDataViewCtrl doesn't
get its data from the user through virtual functions or events,
instead you need to write your own
\helpref{wxDataViewListModel}{wxdataviewlistmodel} and associate
it with this control. Then you need to add a number of
\helpref{wxDataViewColumn}{wxdataviewcolumn} to this control to
define what each column shall display. Each wxDataViewColumn
in turn owns 1 instance of a
\helpref{wxDataViewRenderer}{wxdataviewrenderer} to render its
cells. A number of standard renderers for rendering text, dates,
images, toggle, a progress bar etc. are provided. Additionally,
the user can write custom renderes deriving from
\helpref{wxDataViewCustomRenderer}{wxdataviewcustomrenderer}
for displaying anything.
All data transfer from the control to the model and the user
code is done through \helpref{wxVariant}{wxvariant} which can
be extended to support more data formats as necessary.
Accordingly, all type information uses the strings returned
from \helpref{wxVariant::GetType}{wxvariantgettype}.
So far, this control has been implemented for GTK+ and there
is an almost complete generic implementation including several
additions for a native Windows look and feel (in particular
concerning the header). It is planned to implement the control
natively under OS X.
\wxheading{Window styles}
\twocolwidtha{5cm}
\begin{twocollist}\itemsep=0pt
\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxDV\_SINGLE}}{Single selection mode. This is the default.}
\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxDV\_MULTIPLE}}{Multiple selection mode.}
\end{twocollist}
\wxheading{Event handling}
To process input from a dataview control, use the following event handler
macros to direct input to member functions that take a
\helpref{wxDataViewEvent}{wxdataviewevent} argument.
\twocolwidtha{7cm}
\begin{twocollist}\itemsep=0pt
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_DATAVIEW\_ROW\_SELECTED(id, func)}}{Processes a wxEVT\_COMMAND\_DATAVIEW\_ROW\_SELECTED event.}
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_DATAVIEW\_ROW\_ACTIVATED(id, func)}}{Processes a wxEVT\_COMMAND\_DATAVIEW\_ROW\_ACTIVATED event.}
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_DATAVIEW\_COLUMN\_HEADER\_CLICK(id, func)}}{Processes a wxEVT\_COMMAND\_DATAVIEW\_COLUMN\_HEADER\_CLICKED event.}
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_DATAVIEW\_COLUMN\_HEADER\_RIGHT\_CLICK(id, func)}}{Processes a wxEVT\_COMMAND\_DATAVIEW\_COLUMN\_HEADER\_RIGHT\_CLICKED event.}
\end{twocollist}
Additionally, you can get informed about changes to the
\helpref{model}{wxDataViewListModel}, to which a wxDataViewCtrl
has been associated. These events correspond to the interface
offered by \helpref{wxDataViewListModelNotifier}{wxdataviewlistmodelnotifier}.
