-} MaxConstraintPart; - -typedef struct { - MaxConstraintPart max; -} MaxConstraintRecord, *MaxConstraint; -.De -.LP -A subclass of this widget class that also needs to maintain a minimum size would -define its constraint record as follows: -.LP -.Ds -.TA .5i 3i -.ta .5i 3i -typedef struct { - Dimension min_width, min_height; -} MinConstraintPart; - -typedef struct { - MaxConstraintPart max; - MinConstraintPart min; -} MaxMinConstraintRecord, *MaxMinConstraint; -.De -.LP -Constraints are allocated, initialized, deallocated, and otherwise maintained -insofar as possible by the \*(xI. -The Constraint class record part has several entries that facilitate this. -All entries in -.PN ConstraintClassPart -are fields and procedures that are defined and implemented by the parent, -but they are called whenever actions are performed on the parent's children. -.LP -The -.PN XtCreateWidget -function uses the \fIconstraint_size\fP field in the parent's class record -to allocate a constraint record when a child is created. -.PN XtCreateWidget -also uses the constraint resources to fill in resource fields in the -constraint record associated with a child. -It then calls the constraint initialize procedure so that the parent -can compute constraint fields that are derived from constraint resources -and can possibly move or resize the child to conform to the given constraints. -.LP -When the -.PN XtGetValues -and -.PN XtSetValues -functions are executed -on a child, they use the constraint resources to get the values or -set the values of constraints associated with that child. -.PN XtSetValues -then calls the constraint set_values procedures so that the parent can -recompute derived constraint fields and move or resize the child -as appropriate. -If a -Constraint -widget class or any of its superclasses have declared a -.PN ConstraintClassExtension -record in the -.PN ConstraintClassPart -\fIextension\fP -fields with a record type of -.PN \s-1NULLQUARK\s+1 -and the \fIget_values_hook\fP field in -.IN "get_values_hook procedure" -.IN "Constraint" "get_values_hook" -the extension record is non-NULL, -.PN XtGetValues -calls the get_values_hook -procedure(s) to allow the parent to return derived constraint fields. -.LP -The -.PN XtDestroyWidget -function calls the constraint destroy procedure to deallocate any -dynamic storage associated with a constraint record. -The constraint record itself must not be deallocated by the constraint -destroy procedure; -.PN XtDestroyWidget -does this automatically. -.bp |
