@page overview_xrc XML Based Resource System (XRC)
|
|
|
|
Classes: wxXmlResource, wxXmlResourceHandler
|
|
|
|
The XML-based resource system, known as XRC, allows user interface elements
|
|
such as dialogs, menu bars and toolbars, to be stored in text files and loaded
|
|
into the application at run-time. XRC files can also be compiled into binary
|
|
XRS files or C++ code (the former makes it possible to store all resources in a
|
|
single file and the latter is useful when you want to embed the resources into
|
|
the executable).
|
|
|
|
There are several advantages to using XRC resources:
|
|
|
|
@li Recompiling and linking an application is not necessary if the resources
|
|
change.
|
|
@li If you use a dialog designer that generates C++ code, it can be hard to
|
|
reintegrate this into existing C++ code. Separation of resources and code
|
|
is a more elegant solution.
|
|
@li You can choose between different alternative resource files at run time, if
|
|
necessary.
|
|
@li The XRC format uses sizers for flexibility, allowing dialogs to be
|
|
resizable and highly portable.
|
|
@li The XRC format is a wxWidgets standard, and can be generated or
|
|
postprocessed by any program that understands it. As it is basedon the XML
|
|
standard, existing XML editors can be used for simple editing purposes.
|
|
|
|
XRC was written by Vaclav Slavik.

@section overview_xrc_concepts XRC Concepts
|
|
|
|
These are the typical steps for using XRC files in your application.
|
|
|
|
@li Include the appropriate headers: normally "wx/xrc/xmlres.h" will suffice.
|
|
@li If you are going to use XRS files (see
|
|
@ref overview_xrc_binaryresourcefiles), install wxFileSystem archive
|
|
handler first with wxFileSystem::AddHandler(new wxArchiveFSHandler);
|
|
@li Call wxXmlResource::Get()->InitAllHandlers() from your wxApp::OnInit
|
|
function, and then call wxXmlResource::Get()->Load("myfile.xrc") to load
|
|
the resource file.
|
|
@li To create a dialog from a resource, create it using the default
|
|
constructor, and then load it. For example:
|
|
wxXmlResource::Get()->LoadDialog(dlg, this, "dlg1");
|
|
@li Set up event tables as usual but use the XRCID(str) macro to translate from
|
|
XRC string names to a suitable integer identifier, for example
|
|
<tt>EVT_MENU(XRCID("quit"), MyFrame::OnQuit)</tt>.
|
|
|
|
To create an XRC file, you can use one of the following methods.
|
|
|
|
@li Create the file by hand.
|
|
@li Use wxDesigner <http://www.roebling.de/>, a commercial dialog designer/RAD
|
|
tool.
|
|
@li Use DialogBlocks <http://www.anthemion.co.uk/dialogblocks/>, a commercial
|
|
dialog editor.
|
|
@li Use XRCed <http://xrced.sf.net/>, a wxPython-based dialog editor that you
|
|
can find in the wxPython/tools subdirectory of the wxWidgets SVN archive.
|
|
@li Use wxGlade <http://wxglade.sf.net/>, a GUI designer written in wxPython.
|
|
At the moment it can generate Python, C++ and XRC.
|
|
|
|
A complete list of third-party tools that write to XRC can be found at
|
|
<http://www.wxwidgets.org/wiki/index.php/Tools>.
|
|
|
|
It is highly recommended that you use a resource editing tool, since it's
|
|
fiddly writing XRC files by hand.
|
|
|
|
You can use wxXmlResource::Load in a number of ways. You can pass an XRC file
|
|
(XML-based text resource file) or a zip-compressed file (see
|
|
@ref overview_xrc_binaryresourcefiles), with extension ZIP or XRS, containing
|
|
other XRC.
|
|
|
|
You can also use embedded C++ resources (see
|
|
@ref overview_xrc_embeddedresource).
|
|
|
|
|
|
@section overview_xrc_binaryresourcefiles Using Binary Resource Files
|
|
|
|
To compile binary resource files, use the command-line @c wxrc utility. It
|
|
takes one or more file parameters (the input XRC files) and the following
|
|
switches and options:
|
|
|
|
@li -h (--help): Show a help message.
|
|
@li -v (--verbose): Show verbose logging information.
|
|
@li -c (--cpp-code): Write C++ source rather than a XRS file.
|
|
@li -e (--extra-cpp-code): If used together with -c, generates C++ header file
|
|
containing class definitions for the windows defined by the XRC file (see
|
|
special subsection).
|
|
@li -u (--uncompressed): Do not compress XML files (C++ only).
|
|
@li -g (--gettext): Output underscore-wrapped strings that poEdit or gettext
|
|
can scan. Outputs to stdout, or a file if -o is used.
|
|
@li -n (--function) @<name@>: Specify C++ function name (use with -c).
|
|
@li -o (--output) @<filename@>: Specify the output file, such as resource.xrs
|
|
or resource.cpp.
|
|
@li -l (--list-of-handlers) @<filename@>: Output a list of necessary handlers
|
|
to this file.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
@code
|
|
$ wxrc resource.xrc
|
|
$ wxrc resource.xrc -o resource.xrs
|
|
$ wxrc resource.xrc -v -c -o resource.cpp
|
|
@endcode
|
|
|
|
@note XRS file is essentially a renamed ZIP archive which means that you can
|
|
manipulate it with standard ZIP tools. Note that if you are using XRS files,
|
|
you have to initialize the wxFileSystem archive handler first! It is a simple
|
|
thing to do:
|
|
|
|
@code
|
|
#include <wx/filesys.h>
|
|
#include <wx/fs_arc.h>
|
|
...
|
|
wxFileSystem::AddHandler(new wxArchiveFSHandler);
|
|
@endcode
|
|
|
|
|
|
@section overview_xrc_embeddedresource Using Embedded Resources
|
|
|
|
It is sometimes useful to embed resources in the executable itself instead of
|
|
loading an external file (e.g. when your app is small and consists only of one
|
|
exe file). XRC provides means to convert resources into regular C++ file that
|
|
can be compiled and included in the executable.
|
|
|
|
Use the @c -c switch to @c wxrc utility to produce C++ file with embedded
|
|
resources. This file will contain a function called @c InitXmlResource (unless
|
|
you override this with a command line switch). Use it to load the resource:
|
|
|
|
@code
|
|
extern void InitXmlResource(); // defined in generated file
|
|
...
|
|
wxXmlResource::Get()->InitAllHandlers();
|
|
InitXmlResource();
|
|
...
|
|
@endcode
|
|
|
|
|
|

@section overview_xrc_cppheader C++ header file generation
|
|
|
|
Using the @c -e switch together with @c -c, a C++ header file is written
|
|
containing class definitions for the GUI windows defined in the XRC file. This
|
|
code generation can make it easier to use XRC and automate program development.
|
|
The classes can be used as basis for development, freeing the programmer from
|
|
dealing with most of the XRC specifics (e.g. @c XRCCTRL).
|
|
|
|
For each top level window defined in the XRC file a C++ class definition is
|
|
generated, containing as class members the named widgets of the window. A
|
|
default constructor for each class is also generated. Inside the constructor
|
|
all XRC loading is done and all class members representing widgets are
|
|
initialized.
|
|
|
|
A simple example will help understand how the scheme works. Suppose you have a
|
|
XRC file defining a top level window @c TestWnd_Base, which subclasses wxFrame
|
|
(any other class like @c wxDialog will do also), and has subwidgets wxTextCtrl A
|
|
and wxButton B.
|
|
|
|
The XRC file and corresponding class definition in the header file will be
|
|
something like:
|
|
|
|
@code
|
|
<?xml version="1.0"?>
|
|
<resource version="2.3.0.1">
|
|
<object class="wxFrame" name="TestWnd_Base">
|
|
<size>-1,-1</size>
|
|
<title>Test</title>
|
|
<object class="wxBoxSizer">
|
|
<orient>wxHORIZONTAL</orient>
|
|
<object class="sizeritem">
|
|
<object class="wxTextCtrl" name="A">
|
|
<label>Test label</label>
|
|
</object>
|
|
</object>
|
|
<object class="sizeritem">
|
|
<object class="wxButton" name="B">
|
|
<label>Test button</label>
|
|
</object>
|
|
</object>
|
|
</object>
|
|
</object>
|
|
</resource>
|
|
|
|
|
|
class TestWnd_Base : public wxFrame
|
|
{
|
|
protected:
|
|
wxTextCtrl* A;
|
|
wxButton* B;
|
|
|
|
private:
|
|
void InitWidgetsFromXRC()
|
|
{
|
|
wxXmlResource::Get()->LoadObject(this, NULL, "TestWnd", "wxFrame");
|
|
A = XRCCTRL(*this, "A", wxTextCtrl);
|
|
B = XRCCTRL(*this, "B", wxButton);
|
|
}
|
|
public:
|
|
TestWnd::TestWnd()
|
|
{
|
|
InitWidgetsFromXRC();
|
|
}
|
|
};
|
|
@endcode
|
|
|
|
The generated window class can be used as basis for the full window class. The
|
|
class members which represent widgets may be accessed by name instead of using
|
|
@c XRCCTRL every time you wish to reference them (note that they are
|
|
@c protected class members), though you must still use @c XRCID to refer to
|
|
widget IDs in the event table.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
@code
|
|
#include "resource.h"
|
|
|
|
class TestWnd : public TestWnd_Base
|
|
{
|
|
public:
|
|
TestWnd()
|
|
{
|
|
// A, B already initialised at this point
|
|
A->SetValue("Updated in TestWnd::TestWnd");
|
|
B->SetValue("Nice :)");
|
|
}
|
|
void OnBPressed(wxEvent& event)
|
|
{
|
|
Close();
|
|
}
|
|
DECLARE_EVENT_TABLE();
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE(TestWnd,TestWnd_Base)
|
|
EVT_BUTTON(XRCID("B"), TestWnd::OnBPressed)
|
|
END_EVENT_TABLE()
|
|
@endcode
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to access the wxSizerItem of a sizer that is part of a
|
|
resource. This can be done using @c XRCSIZERITEM as shown.
|
|
|
|
The resource file can have something like this for a sizer item.
|
|
|
|
@code
|
|
<object class="spacer" name="area">
|
|
<size>400, 300</size>
|
|
</object>
|
|
@endcode
|
|
|
|
The code can then access the sizer item by using @c XRCSIZERITEM and @c XRCID
|
|
together.
|
|
|
|
@code
|
|
wxSizerItem* item = XRCSIZERITEM(*this, "area");
|
|
@endcode
|

@section overview_xrc_newresourcehandlers Adding New Resource Handlers
|
|
|
|
Adding a new resource handler is pretty easy.
|
|
|
|
Typically, to add an handler for the @c MyControl class, you'll want to create
|
|
the @c xh_mycontrol.h and @c xh_mycontrol.cpp files.
|
|
|
|
The header needs to contains the @c MyControlXmlHandler class definition:
|
|
|
|
@code
|
|
class MyControlXmlHandler : public wxXmlResourceHandler
|
|
{
|
|
public:
|
|
// Constructor.
|
|
MyControlXmlHandler();
|
|
|
|
// Creates the control and returns a pointer to it.
|
|
virtual wxObject *DoCreateResource();
|
|
|
|
// Returns true if we know how to create a control for the given node.
|
|
virtual bool CanHandle(wxXmlNode *node);
|
|
|
|
// Register with wxWidgets' dynamic class subsystem.
|
|
DECLARE_DYNAMIC_CLASS(MyControlXmlHandler)
|
|
};
|
|
@endcode
|
|
|
|
The implementation of your custom XML handler will typically look as:
|
|
|
|
@code
|
|
// Register with wxWidgets' dynamic class subsystem.
|
|
IMPLEMENT_DYNAMIC_CLASS(MyControlXmlHandler, wxXmlResourceHandler)
|
|
|
|
MyControlXmlHandler::MyControlXmlHandler()
|
|
{
|
|
// this call adds support for all wxWindows class styles
|
|
// (e.g. wxBORDER_SIMPLE, wxBORDER_SUNKEN, wxWS_EX_* etc etc)
|
|
AddWindowStyles();
|
|
|
|
// if MyControl class supports e.g. MYCONTROL_DEFAULT_STYLE
|
|
// you should use:
|
|
// XRC_ADD_STYLE(MYCONTROL_DEFAULT_STYLE);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
wxObject *MyControlXmlHandler::DoCreateResource()
|
|
{
|
|
// the following macro will init a pointer named "control"
|
|
// with a new instance of the MyControl class, but will NOT
|
|
// Create() it!
|
|
XRC_MAKE_INSTANCE(control, MyControl)
|
|
|
|
// this is the point where you'll typically need to do the most
|
|
// important changes: here the control is created and initialized.
|
|
// You'll want to use the wxXmlResourceHandler's getters to
|
|
// do most of your work.
|
|
// If e.g. the MyControl::Create function looks like:
|
|
//
|
|
// bool MyControl::Create(wxWindow *parent, int id,
|
|
// const wxBitmap &first, const wxPoint &posFirst,
|
|
// const wxBitmap &second, const wxPoint &posSecond,
|
|
// const wxString &theTitle, const wxFont &titleFont,
|
|
// const wxPoint &pos, const wxSize &size,
|
|
// long style = MYCONTROL_DEFAULT_STYLE,
|
|
// const wxString &name = wxT("MyControl"));
|
|
//
|
|
// Then the XRC for your component should look like:
|
|
//
|
|
// <object class="MyControl" name="some_name">
|
|
// <first-bitmap>first.xpm</first-bitmap>
|
|
// <second-bitmap>text.xpm</second-bitmap>
|
|
// <first-pos>3,3</first-pos>
|
|
// <second-pos>4,4</second-pos>
|
|
// <the-title>a title</the-title>
|
|
// <title-font>
|
|
// <!-- Standard XRC tags for a font: <size>, <style>, <weight>, etc -->
|
|
// </title-font>
|
|
// <!-- XRC also accepts other usual tags for wxWindow-derived classes:
|
|
// like e.g. <name>, <style>, <size>, <position>, etc -->
|
|
// </object>
|
|
//
|
|
// And the code to read your custom tags from the XRC file is just:
|
|
control->Create(m_parentAsWindow, GetID(),
|
|
GetBitmap(wxT("first-bitmap")),
|
|
GetPosition(wxT("first-pos")),
|
|
GetBitmap(wxT("second-bitmap")),
|
|
GetPosition(wxT("second-pos")),
|
|
GetText(wxT("the-title")),
|
|
GetFont(wxT("title-font")),
|
|
GetPosition(), GetSize(), GetStyle(), GetName());
|
|
|
|
SetupWindow(control);
|
|
|
|
return control;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
bool MyControlXmlHandler::CanHandle(wxXmlNode *node)
|
|
{
|
|
// this function tells XRC system that this handler can parse
|
|
// the <object class="MyControl"> tags
|
|
return IsOfClass(node, wxT("MyControl"));
|
|
}
|
|
@endcode
|
|
|
|
You may want to check the wxXmlResourceHandler documentation to see how many
|
|
built-in getters it contains. It's very easy to retrieve also complex
|
|
structures out of XRC files using them.
