Interface IContainerControl

Namespace

SharpConsoleUI.Controls

Assembly

SharpConsoleUI.dll

Interface for controls that contain child controls. All GUI frameworks expose children from containers - this is fundamental. Enables focus system to build flattened list of all focusable controls, including deeply nested controls within containers.

public interface IContainerControl

Extension Methods

BindingExtensions.BindTwoWay<TBuilder, TControl, TSource, TValue>(TBuilder, TSource, Expression<Func<TSource, TValue>>, Expression<Func<TControl, TValue>>)

BindingExtensions.BindTwoWay<TBuilder, TControl, TSource, TSrc, TTgt>(TBuilder, TSource, Expression<Func<TSource, TSrc>>, Expression<Func<TControl, TTgt>>, Func<TSrc, TTgt>, Func<TTgt, TSrc>)

BindingExtensions.Bind<TBuilder, TControl, TSource, TValue>(TBuilder, TSource, Expression<Func<TSource, TValue>>, Expression<Func<TControl, TValue>>)

BindingExtensions.Bind<TBuilder, TControl, TSource, TSrc, TTgt>(TBuilder, TSource, Expression<Func<TSource, TSrc>>, Expression<Func<TControl, TTgt>>, Func<TSrc, TTgt>)

Methods

GetChildren()

Gets the direct child controls of this container. Does not recursively include grandchildren - recursion happens in caller.

IReadOnlyList<IWindowControl> GetChildren()

Returns

IReadOnlyList<IWindowControl>

Read-only list of direct child controls (may include other containers)

Remarks

IMPORTANT: For HorizontalGridControl, this should return columns AND splitters in order: [Column1, Splitter1, Column2, Splitter2, Column3]

Splitters are IInteractiveControl and should be included in Tab navigation.
