Globals in ArpLayout


ARPLAYOUT_ARCHIVEHOOKS()

ARPLAYOUT_ARCHIVEHOOKS(ThisClass, ParentClass, ViewDeep)

If your class doesn't have anything special it needs to do for archiving, you can include this macro to use the standard implementation of mixing in with ArpLayoutable. Otherwise, you will need to provide your own implementation of Archive() that does your own data as well as the mix-in code here.

ARPLAYOUT_HANDLERHOOKS()

ARPLAYOUT_HANDLERHOOKS(ParentClass)

These are the things you almost always have to do when mixing in with a BHandler or any derived classs. Your mix-in class should look something like this:

        class myClass : public BHandler, public ArpBaseLayout
        {
        public:
            myClass() { ... }

            ARPLAYOUT_HANDLERHOOKS(BHandler)

            ...
        }

ARPLAYOUT_SUITEHOOKS()

ARPLAYOUT_SUITEHOOKS(ParentClass)

If your class doesn't implement its own message suite, then you can include this macro to use the standard implementation of mixing in with ArpLayoutable. Otherwise, you will need to provide your own implementation to GetSupportedSuites() that does your own suite as well as the mix-in code here.

ARPLAYOUT_VIEWHOOKS()

ARPLAYOUT_VIEWHOOKS(ParentClass)

These are the things you almost always have to do when mixing in with a BView or any derived classs. Your mix-in class should look something like this:

        class myClass : public BView, public ArpBaseLayout
        {
        public:
            myClass() { ... }

            ARPLAYOUT_HANDLERHOOKS(BView)
            ARPLAYOUT_VIEWHOOKS(BView)

            ...
        }

ArpAnySize

const float ArpAnySize

Place this value into the maximum width/height to allow unbounded expansion.


ArpNoParams

ArpMessage ArpNoParams

Quick way to pass no (a.k.a. default) paramters to a function.


get_view_dimens()

void get_view_dimens(ArpLayoutDimens* dimens, BView* view)

This function probes the give BView to try to fill in some reasonable default values into the given arp_layout_dimens structure. In an ideal world, this would just mean calling GetPreferredSize() and copying the result. Too bad the world isn't ideal.
