Detailed Description

The System class is the CEGUI class that provides access to all other elements in this system.

void CEGUI::System::notifyDisplaySizeChanged ( const Size new_size)

Notification function to be called when the main display changes size. Client code should call this function when the host window changes size, or if the display resolution is changed in full-screen mode.

Calling this function ensures that any other parts of the system that
need to know about display size changes are notified.  This affects
things such as the MouseCursor default constraint area, and also the
auto-scale functioning of Imagesets and Fonts.
Note
This function will also fire the System::EventDisplaySizeChanged event.
Parameters
new_sizeSize object describing the new display size in pixels.
void CEGUI::System::notifyWindowDestroyed ( const Window window)

Internal method used to inform the System object whenever a window is destroyed, so that System can perform any required housekeeping.

Note
This method is not intended for client code usage. If you use this method anything can, and probably will, go wrong!
void CEGUI::System::renderGUI ( void  )

Render the GUI.

    Depending upon the internal state, this may either re-use rendering from last time, or trigger a full re-draw from all elements.
Returns
Nothing
void CEGUI::System::setDefaultFont ( const String name)

Parameters
nameString object containing the name of the font to be used as the system default.
Returns
Nothing.

Set the default font to be used by the system.

Parameters
fontPointer to the font to be used as the system default.
Returns
Nothing.
void CEGUI::System::setDefaultMouseCursor ( const Image image)

Set the image to be used as the default mouse cursor.

Parameters
imagePointer to an image object that is to be used as the default mouse cursor. To have no cursor rendered by default, you can specify NULL here.
Returns
Nothing.
void CEGUI::System::setDefaultMouseCursor ( MouseCursorImage  image)
inline

Set the image to be used as the default mouse cursor.

Parameters
imageOne of the MouseCursorImage enumerated values.
Returns
Nothing.

References setDefaultMouseCursor().

Referenced by setDefaultMouseCursor().

void CEGUI::System::setDefaultMouseCursor ( const String imageset,
const String image_name 
)

Set the image to be used as the default mouse cursor.

Parameters
imagesetString object that contains the name of the Imageset that contains the image to be used.
image_nameString object that contains the name of the Image on imageset that is to be used.
Returns
Nothing.
Exceptions
UnknownObjectExceptionthrown if imageset is not known, or if imageset contains no Image named image_name.
void CEGUI::System::setDefaultTooltip ( Tooltip tooltip)

Set the system default Tooltip object. This value may be NULL to indicate that no default Tooltip will be available.

Parameters
tooltipPointer to a valid Tooltip based object which should be used as the default tooltip for the system, or NULL to indicate that no system default tooltip is required. Note that when passing a pointer to a Tooltip object, ownership of the Tooltip does not pass to System.
Returns
Nothing.
void CEGUI::System::setDefaultTooltip ( const String tooltipType)

Set the system default Tooltip to be used by specifying a Window type.

System will internally attempt to create an instance of the specified window type (which must be
derived from the base Tooltip class).  If the Tooltip creation fails, the error is logged and no
system default Tooltip will be available.
Parameters
tooltipTypeString object holding the name of the Tooltip based Window type which should be used as the Tooltip for the system default.
Returns
Nothing.
static void CEGUI::System::setDefaultXMLParserName ( const String parserName)
static

Static member to set the name of the default XML parser module that should be used.

If you want to modify the default parser from the one compiled in, you
need to call this static member prior to instantiating the main
CEGUI::System object.

Note that calling this member to change the name of the default module
after CEGUI::System, and therefore the default xml parser, has been
created will have no real effect - the default parser name will be
updated, though no actual changes to the xml parser module will occur.

The built-in options for this are:
 - XercesParser
 - ExpatParser
 - LibxmlParser
 - TinyXMLParser

Whether these are actually available, depends upon how you built the
system.  If you have some custom parser, you can provide the name of
that here to have it used as the default, though note that the
final filename of the parser module should be of the form:

[prefix]CEGUI[parserName][suffix]

where:
- [prefix] is some optional prefix; like 'lib' on linux.
- CEGUI is a required prefix.
- [parserName] is the name of the parser, as supplied to this function.
- [suffix] is the filename suffix, like .dll or .so

Final module filenames are, thus, of the form:
- CEGUIXercesParser.dll
- libCEGUIXercesParser.so
Parameters
parserNameString describing the name of the xml parser module to be used as the default.
Returns
Nothing.
Window* CEGUI::System::setGUISheet ( Window sheet)

Set the active GUI sheet (root) window.

Parameters
sheetPointer to a Window object that will become the new GUI 'root'
Returns
Pointer to the window that was previously set as the GUI root.
void CEGUI::System::setImageCodec ( ImageCodec codec)

Set the image codec to use from an existing image codec.

In this case the renderer does not take the ownership of the image codec
object.
Parameters
codecThe ImageCodec object to be used.
void CEGUI::System::setModalTarget ( Window target)
inline

Internal method to directly set the current modal target.

Note
This method is called internally by Window, and must be used by client code. Doing so will most likely not have the expected results.
void CEGUI::System::setMouseMoveScaling ( float  scaling)

Set the current mouse movement scaling factor.

Parameters
scalingfloat value specifying the scaling to be applied to mouse movement inputs.
Returns
nothing.
void CEGUI::System::setMultiClickTimeout ( double  timeout)

Set the timeout to be used for the generation of multi-click events.

    A multi-click event is a double-click, or a triple-click.  The value
returned here is the maximum allowable time between mouse button down
events for which a multi-click event will be generated.
Parameters
timeoutdouble value equal to the multi-click timeout value to be used from now onwards.
Note
A timeout value of 0 indicates infinity and so no timeout occurrs; as long as the mouse is in the prescribed area, an appropriate mouse button event will therefore always be raised.
Returns
Nothing.
void CEGUI::System::setMultiClickToleranceAreaSize ( const Size sz)

Set the size of the allowable mouse movement tolerance used when generating multi-click events.

    This size defines an area with the mouse at the centre.  The mouse must stay within the tolerance defined
    for a multi-click (double click, or triple click) event to be generated.
Parameters
szSize object describing the multi-click tolerance area size to be used.
Returns
Nothing.
void CEGUI::System::setScriptingModule ( ScriptModule scriptModule)

Set the ScriptModule to be used for scripting within the GUI system.

Parameters
scriptModulePointer to a ScriptModule based object, or 0 for none (be careful!)
Returns
Nothing
void CEGUI::System::setSingleClickTimeout ( double  timeout)

Set the timeout used for generation of single-click events.

    A single-click is defined here as a button being pressed and then
released.
Parameters
timeoutdouble value equal to the single-click timeout value to be used from now onwards.
Note
A timeout value of 0 indicates infinity and so no timeout occurrs; as long as the mouse is in the prescribed area, a mouse button 'clicked' event will therefore always be raised.
Returns
Nothing.
void CEGUI::System::setXMLParser ( const String parserName)

Set a new XML parser module to be used.

The current XMLParser will be cleaned up and, if owned by the system,
also deleted, as will any dynamically loaded module associated with the
XMLParser object.  The newly created XMLParser object, and the
associated module will be owned by the system.
Parameters
parserNameString object describing the name of the XML parser module to be used.
void CEGUI::System::setXMLParser ( XMLParser parser)

Sets the XMLParser object to be used by the system.

The current XMLParser will be cleaned up and, if owned by the system,
also deleted, as will any dynamically loaded module associated with the
XMLParser object.

If the argument passed in the \a parser parameter is 0, the system will
cleanup any existing parser as described above, and revert to using
the parser provided by the default module (see getDefaultXMLParserName
and setDefaultXMLParserName).
Parameters
parserPointer to the XMLParser object to be used by the system, or 0 to cause the system to initialise a default parser.
void CEGUI::System::signalRedraw ( )
inline

Causes a full re-draw next time renderGUI() is called.

Returns
Nothing
bool CEGUI::System::updateWindowContainingMouse ( )

Perform updates with regards to the window that contains the mouse cursor, firing any required MouseEnters / MouseLeaves events.

Note
The CEGUI system components call this member as a matter of course, in most cases there will be no need for user / client code to call this member directly.
Returns
  • true if the window containing the mouse had changed.
  • false if the window containing the mouse had not changed.
