Detailed Description

This factory class is used to instantiate new gadget containers.

Library: mvsw

The function newInstance() is called to create new containers, unless a view parameter (Server data source or Container) has been supplied, in which case the Rogue Wave Views component uses the container supplied.

newInstance()

IlvGadgetContainer & IlsSwGadgetContainerFactory::newInstance ( IlsSwRepresentation *  swRep, IlvDisplay *  d, const char *  name, const char *  title, const IlvRect &  dims, IlvBoolean  useacc = IlvTrue, IlvBoolean  visible = IlvFalse  )

virtual

Creates instances of type IlvGadgetContainer.

The parameter swRep is not necessary to create the IlvGadgetContainer object, but it is supplied in case the factory wants to change its behavior depending on the representation being created. It may happen that the gadget container is created before the representation. If this happens, two cases can arise:

• If you fill the created container with objects (for instance, by reading an .ilv file), Server does not read the resource file specified in the dynamic view as the resource attribute. In this case, it is your responsibility to display the panel.
• If you do not load any graphic object, Server reads the resource file specified in the dynamic view.
