Inheritance diagram for wxBitmapDataObject:

Detailed Description

wxBitmapDataObject is a specialization of wxDataObject for bitmap data.

It can be used without change to paste data into the wxClipboard or a wxDropSource. A user may wish to derive a new class from this class for providing a bitmap on-demand in order to minimize memory consumption when offering data in several formats, such as a bitmap and GIF.

This class may be used as is, but GetBitmap() may be overridden to increase efficiency.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

wxBitmapDataObject::wxBitmapDataObject ( const wxBitmap bitmap = wxNullBitmap)

Constructor, optionally passing a bitmap (otherwise use SetBitmap() later).


Member Function Documentation

virtual wxBitmap wxBitmapDataObject::GetBitmap ( ) const [virtual]

Returns the bitmap associated with the data object.

You may wish to override this method when offering data on-demand, but this is not required by wxWidgets' internals. Use this method to get data in bitmap form from the wxClipboard.

virtual void wxBitmapDataObject::SetBitmap ( const wxBitmap bitmap) [virtual]

Sets the bitmap associated with the data object.

This method is called when the data object receives data. Usually there will be no reason to override this function.
