The default CEGUI implementation stores the currently specified values of the widgets such that closing and then reopening a window will redisplay those values.  Presented here is a different approach, to allow values to be saved or cancelled.

==== Explanation ====
 +
The DemoSample class is the "main" application.  It initializes CEGUI and loads a simple layout.  It then initialises instances of the SimpleWindow and the SimpleDialog classes.  These contain the specific code to handle the behavior of the Simple Window and the Simple Dialog.  In turn they rely on the behaviors define within the WindowSystem class to activate higher level features.
 +
 +
The WindowSystem class implements the behavior of the 'Ok', 'Cancel', and 'Apply' buttons that we've become accustomed to in the world of Windows.  The WindowSystem::WindowSystemEvents enumaration defines the high level events supported by the WindowSystem class:
 +
  open: display the window and its data
 +
  ok: save the data and close the window
 +
  cancel: close the window without saving the data
 +
  escape: close the window without saving the data
 +
  apply: save the data without closing the window
 +
  modified: enable the 'apply' button
 +
 +
These high level events accomplish their jobs through the use of four basic actions:
 +
  doOpen(): display the window
 +
  doLoad(): copy the value of variables into their associated widgets
 +
  doSave(): copy the value of the widgets into their associated variables
 +
  doClose(): hide the window
 +
 +
The SimpleWindow class will manage everything that has to do with the Simple Window.  The initWindow() function initialises the WindowSystem by specifying the handle of the window/dialog (the name specified within the layout file) and whether it should initially be visible or not.  Then it instructs the WindowSystem to handle four events as well as which action to initiate in response to these events:
 +
1) Pressing the "Toolbar_btnSimpleWindow" button opens the SimpleWindow.
 +
2) Pressing the "SimpleWindow_btnClose" button performs an 'Ok', saving the data and closing the window.
 +
3) Clicking on the 'X' button closes the dialog without saving any modifications (cancel).
 +
4) Pressing the 'escape' key closes the dialog without saving any modifications (cancel).
 +
 +
The SimpleWindow class then overrides the doLoad() virtual function to place the contents of a variable (dataString) into its associated Editbox.  It also overrides the doSave() virtual function to place the contents of the Editbox back into the variable.
 +
 +
The SimpleDialog class replicates many of what the SimpleWindow performed.  The first difference is that it specifies the handle of a parent window.  This signals the WindowSystem class that when the Simple Dialog is opened it should disable its parent, making the Simple Dialog modal; inputs to the parent are blocked while this dialog is opened.
 +
 +
The second difference is the addition of an apply button.  This apply button requires that two events be specified.  The event of clicking on the apply button "SimpleDialog_btnApply" is bound to the high level event of WindowSystem::apply, which will call upon doSave() to move the widget data into the variables.  Text changes within the edit box "SimpleDialog_edtValue" are also bound to the high level event of WindowSystem::modified, which will enable the apply button whenever the contents of the edit box are modified.  If there were additional widgets within the window then their 'modified' events would also need to be specified.
 +
 +
CEGUI has more widgets than an Editbox.  These can easily be incorporated within the logic presented here.

The default CEGUI implementation stores the currently specified values of the widgets such that closing and then reopening a window will redisplay those values. Presented here is a different approach, to allow values to be saved or cancelled.

Explanation

The DemoSample class is the "main" application. It initializes CEGUI and loads a simple layout. It then initialises instances of the SimpleWindow and the SimpleDialog classes. These contain the specific code to handle the behavior of the Simple Window and the Simple Dialog. In turn they rely on the behaviors define within the WindowSystem class to activate higher level features.

The WindowSystem class implements the behavior of the 'Ok', 'Cancel', and 'Apply' buttons that we've become accustomed to in the world of Windows. The WindowSystem::WindowSystemEvents enumaration defines the high level events supported by the WindowSystem class: 

 open: display the window and its data
 ok: save the data and close the window
 cancel: close the window without saving the data
 escape: close the window without saving the data
 apply: save the data without closing the window
 modified: enable the 'apply' button

These high level events accomplish their jobs through the use of four basic actions: 

 doOpen(): display the window
 doLoad(): copy the value of variables into their associated widgets
 doSave(): copy the value of the widgets into their associated variables
 doClose(): hide the window

The SimpleWindow class will manage everything that has to do with the Simple Window. The initWindow() function initialises the WindowSystem by specifying the handle of the window/dialog (the name specified within the layout file) and whether it should initially be visible or not. Then it instructs the WindowSystem to handle four events as well as which action to initiate in response to these events: 1) Pressing the "Toolbar_btnSimpleWindow" button opens the SimpleWindow. 2) Pressing the "SimpleWindow_btnClose" button performs an 'Ok', saving the data and closing the window. 3) Clicking on the 'X' button closes the dialog without saving any modifications (cancel). 4) Pressing the 'escape' key closes the dialog without saving any modifications (cancel).

The SimpleWindow class then overrides the doLoad() virtual function to place the contents of a variable (dataString) into its associated Editbox. It also overrides the doSave() virtual function to place the contents of the Editbox back into the variable.

The SimpleDialog class replicates many of what the SimpleWindow performed. The first difference is that it specifies the handle of a parent window. This signals the WindowSystem class that when the Simple Dialog is opened it should disable its parent, making the Simple Dialog modal; inputs to the parent are blocked while this dialog is opened.

The second difference is the addition of an apply button. This apply button requires that two events be specified. The event of clicking on the apply button "SimpleDialog_btnApply" is bound to the high level event of WindowSystem::apply, which will call upon doSave() to move the widget data into the variables. Text changes within the edit box "SimpleDialog_edtValue" are also bound to the high level event of WindowSystem::modified, which will enable the apply button whenever the contents of the edit box are modified. If there were additional widgets within the window then their 'modified' events would also need to be specified.

CEGUI has more widgets than an Editbox. These can easily be incorporated within the logic presented here.
