Detailed Description

Base class for objects that can be used to automatically position a component according to some kind of algorithm.

The component class simply holds onto a reference to a Positioner, but doesn't actually do anything with it - all the functionality must be implemented by the positioner itself (e.g. it might choose to watch some kind of value and move the component when the value changes).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Positioner()

Component::Positioner::Positioner ( Component & component )

explicitnoexcept

Creates a Positioner which can control the specified component.

~Positioner()

virtual Component::Positioner::~Positioner ( )

virtualdefault

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

getComponent()

Component & Component::Positioner::getComponent ( ) const

noexcept

Returns the component that this positioner controls.

applyNewBounds()

virtual void Component::Positioner::applyNewBounds ( const Rectangle< int > & newBounds )

pure virtual

Attempts to set the component's position to the given rectangle.

Unlike simply calling Component::setBounds(), this may involve the positioner being smart enough to adjust itself to fit the new bounds.
