Description

A BonoboUIContainer is a very thin object, it implements the CORBA interface for doing UI merging, but none of the logic. In order to achieve the effect it is associated with a BonoboUIEngine object. Traditionaly the UI container was associated with a BonoboWindow however, this is now strongly deprecated, since the BonoboUIContainer can be used with any BonoboUIEngine, not just that used by BonoboWindow.

Here is how your code should interact with the BonoboUIContainer

Example 3. How to setup a BonoboUIContainer

{
	BonoboWindow      *window;
	BonoboUIEngine    *engine;
	BonoboUIContainer *container;

	window = BONOBO_WINDOW (
		bonobo_window_new ("Window", "My Test Application"));
	container = bonobo_ui_container_new();

	engine = bonobo_window_get_ui_engine (window);
	bonobo_ui_container_set_engine (container, engine);

	return window;
}

bonobo_ui_container_new ()

BonoboUIContainer* bonobo_ui_container_new  (void);

Returns : a newly created BonoboUIContainer

bonobo_ui_container_set_engine ()

void        bonobo_ui_container_set_engine  (BonoboUIContainer *container,
                                             BonoboUIEngine *engine);

Associates the BonoboUIContainer with a BonoboUIEngine that it will use to handle all the UI merging requests.

container : the container

bonobo_ui_container_get_engine ()

BonoboUIEngine* bonobo_ui_container_get_engine
                                            (BonoboUIContainer *container);
