Padre::Wx::Main(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Padre::Wx::Main(3)NAMEPadre::Wx::Main - The main window for the Padre IDE
DESCRIPTION
"Padre::Wx::Main" implements Padre's main window. It is the window
containing the menus, the notebook with all opened tabs, the various
sub-windows (outline, subs, output, errors, etc).
It inherits from "Wx::Frame", so check Wx documentation to see all the
available methods that can be applied to it besides the added ones (see
below).
PUBLIC API
Constructor
There's only one constructor for this class.
"new"
my $main = Padre::Wx::Main->new($ide);
Create and return a new Padre main window. One should pass a "Padre"
object as argument, to get a reference to the Padre application.
Accessors
The following methods access the object attributes. They are both
getters and setters, depending on whether you provide them with an
argument. Use them wisely.
Accessors to GUI elements:
· "title"
· "config"
· "aui"
· "menu"
· "notebook"
· "left"
· "right"
· "functions"
· "todo"
· "outline"
· "directory"
· "bottom"
· "output"
· "syntax"
Accessors to operating data:
· "cwd"
Accessors that may not belong to this class:
· "ack"
"about"
my $dialog = $main->about;
Returns the About Padre dialog, creating it if needed.
"left"
my $panel = $main->left;
Returns the left toolbar container panel, creating it if needed.
"right"
my $panel = $main->right;
Returns the right toolbar container panel, creating it if needed.
"bottom"
my $panel = $main->bottom;
Returns the bottom toolbar container panel, creating it if needed.
"find"
my $find = $main->find;
Returns the find dialog, creating a new one if needed.
"findfast"
my $find = $main->findfast;
Return current quick find dialog. Create a new one if needed.
"replace"
my $replace = $main->replace;
Return current replace dialog. Create a new one if needed.
Public Methods
"load_files"
$main->load_files;
Load any default files: session from command-line, explicit list on
command- line, or last session if user has this setup, a new file, or
nothing.
"lock"
my $lock = $main->lock('UPDATE', 'BUSY', 'refresh_toolbar');
Create and return a guard object that holds resource locks of various
types.
The method takes a parameter list of the locks you wish to exist for
the current scope. Special types of locks are provided in capitals,
refresh/method locks are provided in lowercase.
The "UPDATE" lock creates a Wx repaint lock using the built in
Wx::WindowUpdateLocker class.
You should use an update lock during GUI construction/modification to
prevent screen flicker. As a side effect of not updating, the GUI
changes happen significantly faster as well. Update locks should only
be held for short periods of time, as the operating system will begin
to treat your\ application as "hung" if an update lock persists for
more than a few seconds. In this situation, you may begin to see GUI
corruption.
The "BUSY" lock creates a Wx "busy" lock using the built in
Wx::WindowDisabler class.
You should use a busy lock during times when Padre has to do a long
and/or complex operation in the foreground, or when you wish to disable
use of any user interface elements until a background thread is
finished.
Busy locks can be held for long periods of time, however your users may
start to suspect trouble if you do not provide any periodic feedback to
them.
Lowercase lock names are used to delay the firing of methods that will
themselves generate GUI events you may want to delay until you are sure
you want to rebuild the GUI.
For example, opening a file will require a Padre::Wx::Main refresh
call, which will itself generate more refresh calls on the directory
browser, the function list, output window, menus, and so on.
But if you open more than one file at a time, you don't want to refresh
the menu for the first file, only to do it again on the second, third
and fourth files.
By creating refresh locks in the top level operation, you allow the
lower level operation to make requests for parts of the GUI to be
refreshed, but have the actual refresh actions delayed until the lock
expires.
This should make operations with a high GUI intensity both simpler and
faster.
The name of the lowercase MUST be the name of a Padre::Wx::Main method,
which will be fired (with no parameters) when the method lock expires.
locked
This method provides the ability to check if a resource is currently
locked.
Single Instance Server
Padre embeds a small network server to handle single instance. Here are
the methods that allow to control this embedded server.
"single_instance_address"
$main->single_instance_address;
Determines the location of the single instance server for this instance
of Padre.
my $single_instance_port = 4444;
"single_instance_start"
$main->single_instance_start;
Start the embedded server. Create it if it doesn't exist. Return true
on success, die otherwise.
"single_instance_stop"
$main->single_instance_stop;
Stop & destroy the embedded server if it was running. Return true on
success.
"single_instance_running"
my $is_running = $main->single_instance_running;
Return true if the embedded server is currently running.
"single_instance_connect"
$main->single_instance_connect;
Callback called when a client is connecting to embedded server. This is
the case when user starts a new Padre, and preference "open all
documents in single Padre instance" is checked.
"single_instance_command"
$main->single_instance_command( $line );
Callback called when a client has issued a command $line while
connected on embedded server. Current supported commands are "open
$file" and "focus".
Window Methods
Those methods allow to query properties about the main window.
"window_width"
my $width = $main->window_width;
Return the main window width.
"window_height"
my $width = $main->window_height;
Return the main window height.
"window_left"
my $left = $main->window_left;
Return the main window position from the left of the screen.
"window_top"
my $top = $main->window_top;
Return the main window position from the top of the screen.
Refresh Methods
Those methods refresh parts of Padre main window. The term "refresh"
and the following methods are reserved for fast, blocking, real-time
updates to the GUI, implying rapid changes.
"refresh"
$main->refresh;
Force refresh of all elements of Padre main window. (see below for
individual refresh methods)
"add_refresh_listener"
Adds an object which will have its "->refresh()" method called whenever
the main refresh event is triggered. The refresh listener is stored as
a weak reference so make sure that you keep the listener alive
elsewhere.
If your object does not have a "->refresh()" method, pass in a code
reference - it will be called instead.
Note that this method must return really quick. If you plan to do work
that takes longer, launch it via the Action::Queue mechanism and
perform it in the background.
"refresh_title"
Sets or updates the Window title.
"refresh_syntaxcheck"
$main->refresh_syntaxcheck;
Do a refresh of document syntax checking. This is a "rapid" change,
since actual syntax check is happening in the background.
"refresh_outline"
$main->refresh_outline;
Force a refresh of the outline panel.
"refresh_menu"
$main->refresh_menu;
Force a refresh of all menus. It can enable / disable menu entries
depending on current document or Padre internal state.
"refresh_menu_plugins"
$main->refresh_menu_plugins;
Force a refresh of just the plug-in menus.
"refresh_windowlist"
$main->refresh_windowlist
Force a refresh of the list of windows in the window menu
"refresh_recent"
Specifically refresh the Recent Files entries in the File dialog
"refresh_toolbar"
$main->refresh_toolbar;
Force a refresh of Padre's toolbar.
"refresh_status"
$main->refresh_status;
Force a refresh of Padre's status bar.
"refresh_status_template"
$main->refresh_status_templat;
Force a refresh of Padre's status bar. The part that is driven by a
template.
"refresh_cursorpos"
$main->refresh_cursorpos;
Force a refresh of the position of the cursor on Padre's status bar.
"refresh_functions"
$main->refresh_functions;
Force a refresh of the function list on the right.
"refresh_todo"
$main->refresh_todo;
Force a refresh of the TODO list on the right.
"refresh_directory"
Force a refresh of the directory tree
"refresh_aui"
This is a refresh method wrapper around the "AUI" "Update" method so
that it can be lock-managed by the existing locking system.
Interface Rebuilding Methods
Those methods reconfigure Padre's main window in case of drastic
changes (locale, etc.)
"change_style"
$main->change_style( $style, $private );
Apply $style to Padre main window. $private is a Boolean true if the
style is located in user's private Padre directory.
"change_locale"
$main->change_locale( $locale );
Change Padre's locale to $locale. This will update the GUI to reflect
the new locale.
"relocale"
$main->relocale;
The term and method "relocale" is reserved for functionality intended
to run when the application wishes to change locale (and wishes to do
so without restarting).
Note at this point, that the new locale has already been fixed, and
this method is usually called by "change_locale()".
"reconfig"
$main->reconfig( $config );
The term and method "reconfig" is reserved for functionality intended
to run when Padre's underlying configuration is updated by an external
actor at run-time. The primary use cases for this method are when the
user configuration file is synced from a remote network location.
Note: This method is highly experimental and subject to change.
"rebuild_toolbar"
$main->rebuild_toolbar;
Destroy and rebuild the toolbar. This method is useful because the
toolbar is not really flexible, and most of the time it's better to
recreate it from scratch.
Tools and Dialogs
Those methods deal with the various panels that Padre provides, and
allow to show or hide them.
"show_functions"
$main->show_functions( $visible );
Show the functions panel on the right if $visible is true. Hide it
otherwise. If $visible is not provided, the method defaults to show the
panel.
"show_todo"
$main->show_todo( $visible );
Show the to do panel on the right if $visible is true. Hide it
otherwise. If $visible is not provided, the method defaults to show the
panel.
"show_outline"
$main->show_outline( $visible );
Show the outline panel on the right if $visible is true. Hide it
otherwise. If $visible is not provided, the method defaults to show the
panel.
"show_debug"
$main->show_debug($visible);
"show_directory"
$main->show_directory( $visible );
Show the directory panel on the right if $visible is true. Hide it
otherwise. If $visible is not provided, the method defaults to show the
panel.
"show_output"
$main->show_output( $visible );
Show the output panel at the bottom if $visible is true. Hide it
otherwise. If $visible is not provided, the method defaults to show the
panel.
"show_findfast"
$main->show_findfast( $visible );
Show the Fast Find panel at the bottom of the editor area if $visible
is true. Hide it otherwise. If $visible is not provided, the method
defaults to show the panel.
"show_findinfiles"
$main->show_findinfiles( $visible );
Show the Find in Files panel at the bottom if $visible is true. Hide
it otherwise. If $visible is not provided, the method defaults to show
the panel.
"show_command_line"
$main->show_command_line( $visible );
Show the command panel at the bottom if $visible is true. Hide it
otherwise. If $visible is not provided, the method defaults to show the
panel.
"show_syntaxcheck"
$main->show_syntaxcheck( $visible );
Show the syntax panel at the bottom if $visible is true. Hide it
otherwise. If $visible is not provided, the method defaults to show the
panel.
Search and Replace
find_dialog
$main->find_dialog;
Show the find dialog, escalating from the fast find if needed
Introspection
The following methods allow to poke into Padre's internals.
"current"
my $current = $main->current;
Creates a Padre::Current object for the main window, giving you quick
and caching access to the current various object members.
See Padre::Current for more information.
"pageids"
my @ids = $main->pageids;
Return a list of all current tab ids (integers) within the notebook.
"pages"
my @pages = $main->pages;
Return a list of all notebook tabs. Those are the real objects, not the
ids (see "pageids()" above).
"editors"
my @editors = $main->editors;
Return a list of all current editors. Those are the real objects, not
the ids (see "pageids()" above).
Note: for now, this has the same meaning as "pages()" (see above), but
this will change once we get project tabs or something else.
"documents"
my @document = $main->documents;
Return a list of all current documents, in the specific order they are
open in the notepad.
Process Execution
The following methods run an external command, for example to evaluate
current document.
"on_run_command"
$main->on_run_command;
Prompt the user for a command to run, then run it with "run_command()"
(see below).
Note: it probably needs to be combined with "run_command()" itself.
"on_run_tdd_tests"
$main->on_run_tdd_tests;
Callback method, to build and then call on_run_tests
"on_run_tests"
$main->on_run_tests;
Callback method, to run the project tests and harness them.

$main->on_run_this_test;
Callback method, to run the currently open test through prove.
"on_open_in_file_browser"
$main->on_open_in_file_browser( $filename );
Opens the current $filename using the operating system's file browser
"run_command"
$main->run_command( $command );
Run $command and display the result in the output panel.
"run_document"
$main->run_document( $debug )
Run current document. If $debug is true, document will be run with
diagnostics and various debug options.
Note: this should really be somewhere else, but can stay here for now.
Session Support
Those methods deal with Padre sessions. A session is a set of files /
tabs opened, with the position within the files saved, as well as the
document that has the focus.
"capture_session"
my @session = $main->capture_session;
Capture list of opened files, with information. Return a list of
"Padre::DB::SessionFile" objects.
"open_session"
$main->open_session( $session );
Try to close all files, then open all files referenced in the given
$session (a "Padre::DB::Session" object). No return value.
"save_session"
$main->save_session( $session, @session );
Try to save @session files ("Padre::DB::SessionFile" objects, such as
what is returned by "capture_session()" - see above) to database,
associated to $session. Note that $session should already exist.
User Interaction
Various methods to help send information to user.
Some methods are inherited from Padre::Wx::Role::Dialog.
"status"
$main->status( $msg );
Temporarily change the status bar leftmost block only to some message.
This is a super-quick method intended for transient messages as short
as a few tens of milliseconds (for example printing all directories
read during a recursive file scan).
"info"
$main->info( $msg );
Print a message on the status bar or within a dialog box depending on
the users preferences setting. The dialog has only a OK button and
there is no return value.
"prompt"
my $value = $main->prompt( $title, $subtitle, $key );
Prompt user with a dialog box about the value that $key should have.
Return this value, or "undef" if user clicked "cancel".
Search and Replace
These methods provide the highest level abstraction for entry into the
various search and replace functions and dialogs.
However, they still represent abstract logic and should NOT be tied
directly to keystroke or menu events.
"search_next"
# Next match for a new search
$main->search_next( $search );
# Next match on current search (or show Find dialog if none)
$main->search_next;
Find the next match for the current search, or spawn the Find dialog.
If no files are open, silently do nothing (don't even remember the new
search)

# Previous match for a new search
$main->search_previous( $search );
# Previous match on current search (or show Find dialog if none)
$main->search_previous;

# Next replace for a new search
$main->replace_next( $search );
# Next replace on current search (or show Find dialog if none)
$main->replace_next;
Replace the next match for the current search, or spawn the Replace
dialog.
If no files are open, do nothing.
"replace_all"
# Replace all for a new search
$main->replace_all( $search );
# Replace all for the current search (or show Replace dialog if none)
$main->replace_all;
Replace all matches for the current search, or spawn the Replace
dialog.
If no files are open, do nothing.
