Detailed Description

represents a component which is created from a URL and arguments.

It is a representation of a resource in the sense that it was created/loaded from the resource. The arguments are passed to the loader to modify its behavior. An example for such an argument is "AsTemplate", which loads the resource as a template for a new document. (see com::sun::star::document::MediaDescriptor for further details)

Models can be controlled by controller components, which are usually views of the model. (see Controller for further details)

If there is at least one controller, there is by definition a current controller. And if that controller supports the interface com::sun::star::view::XSelectionSupplier, it has a current selection too.

Member Function Documentation

◆ attachResource()

boolean attachResource ( [in] string  URL,
[in] sequence< com::sun::star::beans::PropertyValue Arguments 
)

informs a model about its resource description.

Parameters
URLspecifies the resource
Argumentsare optional arguments for that resource (see com::sun::star::document::MediaDescriptor)
Returns
TRUE for success
FALSE otherwise

◆ connectController()

void connectController ( [in] XController  Controller)

is called whenever a new controller is created for this model.

The com::sun::star::lang::XComponent interface of the controller must be used to recognize when it is deleted.

Parameters
Controllera new controller for this model
See also
XModel::disconnectController()

◆ disconnectController()

void disconnectController ( [in] XController  Controller)

is called whenever an existing controller should be deregistered at this model.

The com::sun::star::lang::XComponent interface of the controller must be used to recognize when it is deleted.

Parameters
Controllerthe existing controller which should be deregistered
See also
XModel::connectController()

◆ getArgs()

sequence< com::sun::star::beans::PropertyValue > getArgs ( )

provides read access on currently representation of the com::sun::star::document::MediaDescriptor of this model which describes the model and its state

Returns
the arguments with which the model was originally created or stored the last time.

◆ getCurrentController()

XController getCurrentController ( )

provides access to the controller which currently controls this model

Returns
If the controller which is active is a controller of this model, it will be returned. If not, the controller which was the last active of this model is returned. If no controller of this model ever was active, the controller first registered is returned. If no controller is registered for this model, NULL is returned.

◆ getCurrentSelection()

com::sun::star::uno::XInterface getCurrentSelection ( )

provides read access on current selection on controller

Returns
the current selection in the current controller. If there is no current controller, it returns NULL.

◆ getURL()

string getURL ( )

provides information about the location of this model

Returns
the URL of the resource which is represented by this model.
See also
XStorable::getLocation()

◆ hasControllersLocked()

boolean hasControllersLocked ( )

determines if there is at least one lock remaining.

While there is at least one lock remaining, some notifications for display updates are not broadcasted to the controllers.

Returns
TRUE if any lock exist
FALSE otherwise

◆ lockControllers()

void lockControllers ( )

suspends some notifications to the controllers which are used for display updates.

The calls to XModel::lockControllers() and XModel::unlockControllers() may be nested and even overlapping, but they must be in pairs. While there is at least one lock remaining, some notifications for display updates are not broadcasted.

◆ setCurrentController()

void setCurrentController ( [in] XController  Controller)
raises (com::sun::star::container::NoSuchElementException
)

sets a registered controller as the current controller.

Parameters
Controllerreference to an already existing connected controller, which should be the new active one
Exceptions
com::sun::star::container::NoSuchElementExceptionif xController isn't an already connected controller on this model

◆ unlockControllers()

void unlockControllers ( )

resumes the notifications which were suspended by XModel::lockControllers().

The calls to XModel::lockControllers() and XModel::unlockControllers() may be nested and even overlapping, but they must be in pairs. While there is at least one lock remaining, some notifications for display updates are not broadcasted.
