=head1 NAME
Prima::VB::VBLoader - Visual Builder file loader
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The module provides functionality for loading resource files,
created by Visual Builder. After the successful load, the newly created
window with all children is returned.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
The simple way to use the loader is as that:
use Prima qw(Application);
use Prima::VB::VBLoader;
Prima::VBLoad( './your_resource.fm',
Form1 => { centered => 1 },
)-> execute;
A more complicated but more proof code can be met in the toolkit:
use Prima qw(Application);
eval "use Prima::VB::VBLoader"; die "$@\n" if $@;
$form = Prima::VBLoad( $fi,
'Form1' => { visible => 0, centered => 1},
);
die "$@\n" unless $form;
All form widgets can be supplied with custom parameters, all together combined
in a hash of hashes and passed as the second parameter to C<VBLoad()> function.
The example above supplies values for C<::visible> and C<::centered> to
C<Form1> widget, which is default name of a form window created by Visual
Builder. All other widgets are accessible by their names in a similar fashion;
after the creation, the widget hierarchy can be accessed in the standard way:
$form = Prima::VBLoad( $fi,
....
'StartButton' => {
onMouseOver => sub { die "No start buttons here\n" },
}
);
...
$form-> StartButton-> hide;
In case a form is to be included not from a fm file but from other data source,
L<AUTOFORM_REALIZE> call can be used to transform perl array into set of
widgets:
$form = AUTOFORM_REALIZE( [ Form1 => {
class => 'Prima::Window',
parent => 1,
profile => {
name => 'Form1',
size => [ 330, 421],
}], {});
Real-life examples are met across the toolkit; for instance,
F<Prima/PS/setup.fm> dialog is used by C<Prima::PS::Setup>.
=head1 API
=head2 Methods
=over
=item check_version HEADER
Scans HEADER, - the first line of a .fm file for version info.
Returns two scalars - the first is a boolean flag, which is set
to 1 if the file can be used and loaded, 0 otherwise. The second
scalar is a version string.
=item GO_SUB SUB [ @EXTRA_DATA ]
Depending on value of boolean flag C<Prima::VB::VBLoader::builderActive>
performs the following: if it is 1, the SUB text is returned as is.
If it is 0, evaluates it in C<sub{}> context and returns the code reference.
If evaluation fails, EXTRA_DATA is stored in C<Prima::VB::VBLoader::eventContext>
array and the exception is re-thrown.
C<Prima::VB::VBLoader::builderActive> is an internal flag that helps the
Visual Builder use the module interface without actual SUB evaluation.
=item AUTOFORM_REALIZE WIDGETS, PARAMETERS
WIDGETS is an array reference that contains evaluated data of
the read content of .fm file ( its data format is preserved).
PARAMETERS is a hash reference with custom parameters passed to
widgets during creation. The widgets are distinguished by the names.
Visual Builder ensures that no widgets have equal names.
C<AUTOFORM_REALIZE> creates the tree of widgets and returns the root
window, which is usually named C<Form1>. It automatically resolves
parent-child relations, so the order of WIDGETS does not matter.
Moreover, if a parent widget is passed as a parameter to
a children widget, the parameter is deferred and passed after
the creation using C<::set> call.
During the parsing and creation process internal notifications can be invoked.
These notifications (events) are stored in .fm file and usually provide
class-specific loading instructions. See L<Events> for details.
=item AUTOFORM_CREATE FILENAME, %PARAMETERS
Reads FILENAME in .fm file format, checks its version, loads,
and creates widget tree. Upon successful load the root widget
is returned. The parsing and creation is performed by calling
C<AUTOFORM_REALIZE>. If loading fails, C<die()> is called.
=item Prima::VBLoad FILENAME, %PARAMETERS
A wrapper around C<AUTOFORM_CREATE>, exported in C<Prima>
namespace. FILENAME can be specified either as a file system
path name, or as a relative module name. In a way,
Prima::VBLoad( 'Module::form.fm' )
and
Prima::VBLoad(
Prima::Utils::find_image( 'Module' 'form.fm'))
are identical. If the procedure finds that FILENAME is a relative
module name, it calls C<Prima::Utils::find_image> automatically. To
tell explicitly that FILENAME is a file system path name, FILENAME
must be prefixed with C<E<lt>> symbol ( the syntax is influenced by C<CORE::open> ).
%PARAMETERS is a hash with custom parameters passed to
widgets during creation. The widgets are distinguished by the names.
Visual Builder ensures that no widgets have equal names.
If the form file loaded successfully, returns the form object reference.
Otherwise, C<undef> is returned and the error string is stored in C<$@>
variable.
=back
=head2 Events
The events, stored in .fm file are called during the loading process. The
module provides no functionality for supplying the events during the load. This
interface is useful only for developers of Visual Builder - ready classes.
The events section is located in C<actions> section of widget entry. There can
be more than one event of each type, registered to different widgets. NAME
parameter is a string with name of the widget; INSTANCE is a hash, created
during load for every widget provided to keep internal event-specific or
class-specific data there. C<extras> section of widget entry is present there
as an only predefined key.
=over
=item Begin NAME, INSTANCE
Called upon beginning of widget tree creation.
=item FormCreate NAME, INSTANCE, ROOT_WIDGET
Called after the creation of a form, which reference is
contained in ROOT_WIDGET.
=item Create NAME, INSTANCE, WIDGET.
Called after the creation of the widget. The newly created
widget is passed in WIDGET
=item Child NAME, INSTANCE, WIDGET, CHILD_NAME
Called before child of WIDGET is created with CHILD_NAME as name.
=item ChildCreate NAME, INSTANCE, WIDGET, CHILD_WIDGET.
Called after child of WIDGET is created; the newly created
widget is passed in CHILD_WIDGET.
=item End NAME, INSTANCE, WIDGET
Called after the creation of all widgets is finished.
=back
=head1 FILE FORMAT
The idea of format of .fm file is that is should be evaluated by perl C<eval()>
call without special manipulations, and kept as plain text. The file begins
with a header, which is a #-prefixed string, and contains a signature, version
of file format, and version of the creator of the file:
# VBForm version file=1 builder=0.1
The header can also contain additional headers, also prefixed with #. These
can be used to tell the loader that another perl module is needed to be loaded
before the parsing; this is useful, for example, if a constant is declared in
the module.
# [preload] Prima::ComboBox
The main part of a file is enclosed in C<sub{}> statement.
After evaluation, this sub returns array of paired scalars, where
each first item is a widget name and second item is hash of its parameters
and other associated data:
sub
{
return (
'Form1' => {
class => 'Prima::Window',
module => 'Prima::Classes',
parent => 1,
code => GO_SUB('init()'),
profile => {
width => 144,
name => 'Form1',
origin => [ 490, 412],
size => [ 144, 100],
}},
);
}
The hash has several predefined keys:
=over
=item actions HASH
Contains hash of events. The events are evaluated via C<GO_SUB> mechanism
and executed during creation of the widget tree. See L<Events> for details.
=item code STRING
Contains a code, executed before the form is created.
This key is present only on the root widget record.
=item class STRING
Contains name of a class to be instantiated.
=item extras HASH
Contains a class-specific parameters, used by events.
=item module STRING
Contains name of perl module that contains the class. The module
will be C<use>'d by the loader.
=item parent BOOLEAN
A boolean flag; set to 1 for the root widget only.
=item profile HASH
Contains profile hash, passed as parameters to the widget
during its creation. If custom parameters were passed to
C<AUTOFORM_CREATE>, these are coupled with C<profile>
( the custom parameters take precedence ) before passing
to the C<create()> call.
