Detailed Description

Library: ilvgadgt

This class provides a way to replace the creation of a default popup menu in the constructor of IlvComboBox. To do so, you must define your own subclass of IlvComboBox::PopupMenuFactory and override the method createPopup().
Then you create an instance of this factory and call SetPopupMenuFactory(). Until the factory is unset, all instances of IlvComboBox() will use your version of createPopup() to create the combo box popup menu.

Note

IlvScrolledComboBox and its subclasses do not use the factory because they use an IlvStringList instead of a popup menu.
