Member Function Documentation

virtual YUI* YUIComponent::createUI	(	int	argc,
		char **	argv,
		bool	with_threads,
		const char *	macro_file
	)			[protected, pure virtual]

Create the UI. This is called when all the information for doing that is complete, in setServerOptions(). 'argc' and 'argv' are the command line arguments.

Implement this method in derived classes.

YUIComponent * YUIComponent::uiComponent

(

)

[static]

Returns the instance of the UI component 0 if none has been created yet.

static YUI* YUIComponent::ui

(

)

[inline, static]

Returns the instance of the UI or 0 if none has been created yet. Note: This does _not_ create a UI on the first call; this happens in the first call of a UI builtin via the YUIComponent's call handler which creates a UI upon its first call and then calls the UI's call handler.

void YUIComponent::createUI

(

)

Create a UI instance. The UI component normally handles that all by itself when the first UI builtin is called, but under very rare circumstances (e.g., in kyast) the UI needs to be created upon demand.

YCPValue YUIComponent::callBuiltin	(	void *	function,
		int	fn_argc,
		YCPValue	fn_argv[]
	)

YUIComponent level call handler; this creates the actual UI instance upon its first call and then hands over the function to be called to the UI's call handler. Weird, huh? ;-)

void YUIComponent::result

(

const YCPValue &

result

)

[virtual]

Called from generic frontend upon session close. This deletes the UI.

Reimplemented from Y2Component.

void YUIComponent::setServerOptions	(	int	argc,
		char **	argv
	)			[virtual]

This is called by the generic frontend after it parsed the commandline. This actually creates an UI instance with createUI().

Reimplemented from Y2Component.

virtual string YUIComponent::name

(

)

const [inline, virtual]

The name of the component - the prefix used for builtin calls like UI::OpenDialog() etc.

Implements Y2Component.

void YUIComponent::setCallback

(

Y2Component *

callback

)

Set a callback component - call the UI's setCallback() method.

Y2Component * YUIComponent::getCallback

(

)

const

Returns the UI's callback component previously set with setCallback(); calls the UI's getCallback() method.
