This directory provides the controllers that act as an interface between the
|
||
|
|
LyX kernel and the GUI-specific implementations of each popup. It also
|
||
|
|
provides abstract base classes from which GUI-specific implemetations of the
|
||
|
|
ButtonController and each separate popup should be derived (see
|
||
|
|
ButtonControlBase.[Ch] and ViewBase.h respectively).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Controller connects the GUI-specific popup to any appropriate signals and
|
||
|
|
dispatches any changes in the data to the kernel. It has no knowledge of the
|
||
|
|
actual instantiation of the GUI-dependent View and ButtonController, which
|
||
|
|
should therefore be created elsewhere. Once created, the Controller will take
|
||
|
|
care of their initialisation, management and, ultimately, destruction.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This leaves the GUI-specific popup (and its author!) to worry only about the
|
||
|
|
data that it has been created to input/modify.

This concept has been instatiated for the Citation dialog only at the moment.
