Graphics::Primitive::ComponentList - List of Components
Maintains a list of components and their constraints. This is implemented as a
class to provide functionality above and beyond a simple array.
my $c = Graphics::Primitive::ComponentList->new;
$c->add_component($comp, $constraint);
my $cindex = $c->find_component($comp->name);
- new
- Creates a new Container.
- add_component ($component, $constraint)
- Add a component to the list. Returns a true value if the component was
added successfully. A second argument may be required, please consult the
POD for your specific layout manager implementation.
Before the component is added, it is passed to the
validate_component method. If validate_component does not return a true
value, then the component is not added.
- clear
- Reset components and constraints to empty arrayrefs.
- component_count
- Returns the number of components in this list.
- constraint_count
- Returns the number of constraints in this list.
- each
- Calls the supplied CODEREF for each component in this list, passing the
component and it's constraints as arguments.
my $flist = $list->each(
sub{
my ($component, $constraint) = @_; $comp->class('foo)
}
);
- find
- Returns a new ComponentList containing only the components for which the
supplied CODEREF returns true. The coderef is called for each component
and is passed the component and it's constraints. Undefined components
(the ones left around after a remove_component) are automatically skipped.
my $flist = $list->find(
sub{
my ($component, $constraint) = @_; return $comp->class eq 'foo'
}
);
If no matching components are found then a new list is
returned so that simple calls liked
$container->find(...)->each(...) don't
explode.
- find_component
- Returns the index of the first component with the supplied name. Returns
undef if no component with that name is found.
- get_component
- Get the component at the specified index.
- get_constraint
- Get the constraint at the specified index.
- remove_component
- Removes a component and it's constraint. Components must have names to
be removed. Returns an arrayref of Components that were
removed.
