Detailed Description

A scoped handle for changing the editor mouse cursor.

This is a safe way to change the cursor that ensures it is only modified in a strict stack-like fashion. Whenever this handle goes out of scope, the cursor is restored to the previous one.

This is not quite entirely fool-proof, there is one case to be careful of: if a cursor context handle exists, to change it, you must first reset that handle (destroying the context) then set it. Assigning a new context to a non-NULL handle will create the new context (pushing a cursor), then destroy the old one, which would attempt to pop a non-top context which is an error. To account for this, when replacing a possibly existing context, use set() which will automatically do the right thing.

Member Function Documentation

change()

void CursorContext::change

(

Gdk::Cursor *

cursor

)

Change the editor cursor of an existing cursor context.

create()

static Handle CursorContext::create ( Editor &  editor, Gdk::Cursor *  cursor  )

static

Change the editor cursor and return a cursor context handle.

When the returned handle goes out of scope, the cursor will be reset to the previous value.

set()

static void CursorContext::set ( Handle *  handle, Editor &  editor, Gdk::Cursor *  cursor  )

static

Set a context handle to a new context.

If the handle points to an existing context, it will first be reset before the new context is created.
