SOMObject ODObject ODFocusSet |
Description | An object of the ODFocusSet class provides grouping of focuses for activation. A focus is a designation of ownership of a given shared resource or feature, such as the keyboard or menu bar. A frame that owns a focus receives events pertaining to that resource. Focuses can be manipulated individually or in groups called focus sets. A focus set is a list of focuses that can be obtained or released as a group. For example, if a frame wants to request ownership of keyboard and menu focuses together, it can create a focus set that includes these two focus types. If a frame requests a focus set and one or more of the focuses included in the focus set is not available, ownership of the entire focus set is denied. Your part creates a focus set object by calling the arbitrator's CreateFocusSet method, which returns a reference to a focus set object. Frames obtain ownership of focus sets by calling the arbitrator's RequestFocusSet method. For more information about focuses and focus sets, see the class description for ODFocusSetIterator and the chapter on user events in the OpenDoc Programming Guide. |
Methods | The methods defined by the ODFocusSet class include: |
Overridden Methods | There are no methods overridden by the ODFocusSet class. |
This method adds the specified focus to this focus set.
Signature
void Add (ODTypeToken focus) |
Parameters
This parameter must be the tokenized form of a focus constants or the tokenized form of a part-specific focus type. You can call the session object's Tokenize method to obtain a token corresponding to an ODFocusType constant. For a list of ODFocusType constants, see ODFocusType.
Returns
None.
Remarks
The specified focus is not added if it already exists in the focus set.
Exception Handling
kODErrOutOfMemory | There is not enough memory to expand the focus set. |
Related Methods
This method indicates whether the specified focus is a member of this focus set.
Signature
ODBoolean Contains (ODTypeToken focus) |
Parameters
This parameter must be the tokenized form of a focus constants or the tokenized form of a part-specific focus type. You can call the session object's Tokenize method to obtain a token corresponding to an ODFocusType constant. For a list of ODFocusType constants, see ODFocusType
Returns
kODTrue | The set contains the focus. |
kODFalse | The set does not contain the focus. |
Related Methods
This method creates a focus-set iterator object for this focus set.
Signature
ODFocusSetIterator *CreateIterator () |
Parameters
None.
Returns
Remarks
While you are using a focus-set iterator, you should not modify the focus set. You must postpone adding items to or removing items from the focus set until after you have deleted the iterator.
This method removes the specified focus from this focus set.
Signature
void Remove (ODTypeToken focus) |
Parameters
This parameter must be the tokenized form of a focus constants or the tokenized form of a part-specific focus type. You can call the session object's Tokenize method to obtain a token corresponding to an ODFocusType constant. For a list of ODFocusType constants, see ODFocusType.
Returns
None.
