Detailed Description

Controls (widgets) within Guiliani.

Controls (also called widgets in other GUI frameworks) are the basic building blocks from which graphical user interfaces are built. Guiliani's standard controls range from simple, static controls (like CGUIImage) to complex ones that deal with user input.

All controls are derived from CGUIObject. Controls are arranged by parent-child relationship. To achieve this relationship the CGUICompositeObject acts as a container for other controls.

Each CGUICompositeObject can have zero or more children. A GUI is usually built in the following way with Guiliani:

• Derive a class from CGUI (which also is a composite object).
• In the derived class' Init() method, additional controls can be added. These can also be composite objects with their own children.

Each control has a position that is relative to its parent.
