[Effective WX] 理解wxWindow中的各种size

在wxWidget中，wxWindow有相当多的size，每种size有各种不同的用途，特别是与wxSize联系起来时，就特别容易混淆。这里从代码的角度来理清各种size。

那几种size就是size, min size, max size, best size, virtual size

首先我们来看wxWindowBase类中几个size的数据成员:

min size/max size相关：

// the minimal allowed size for the window (no minimal size if variable(s)
    // contain(s) wxDefaultCoord)
    int                  m_minWidth,
                         m_minHeight,
                         m_maxWidth,
                         m_maxHeight;

上面几个成员变量是关于min size和max size的width/height.

virtual size 相关：

// Virtual size (scrolling)
    wxSize                m_virtualSize;
    int                   m_minVirtualWidth;    // VirtualSizeHints
    int                   m_minVirtualHeight;
    int                   m_maxVirtualWidth;
    int                   m_maxVirtualHeight;

best size相关：

// Used to save the results of DoGetBestSize so it doesn't need to be
    // recalculated each time the value is needed.
    wxSize m_bestSizeCache;

这个变量是关于best size的。通常best size都是计算出来(后面将会看到)，不过有些窗口控件，可以将这个size cache下来，不用重复计算。

size相关：

wxWindowBase并没有维护一个关于size的成员，GetSize/SetSize都是直接调用api来获取的。

我们客户端代码调用窗口的SetSize函数就是调用DoSetSize函数。

// set the window size and/or position
    void SetSize( int x, int y , int width, int height,
                  int sizeFlags = wxSIZE_AUTO )
        {  DoSetSize(x , y, width, height , sizeFlags); }

    void SetSize( int width, int height )
        { DoSetSize( wxDefaultCoord , wxDefaultCoord, width, height , wxSIZE_USE_EXISTING ); }

    void SetSize( const wxSize& size )
        { SetSize( size .x, size.y ); }

    void SetSize(const wxRect& rect, int sizeFlags = wxSIZE_AUTO)
        { DoSetSize(rect .x, rect.y , rect. width, rect .height, sizeFlags); }

实际上DoSetSize函数在wxWindowBase中是一个纯虚函数，由任何继承的实际窗口类来重写。

在windows平台上，wxWindowMSW来实现了这个DoSetSize函数：

// set the size of the window: if the dimensions are positive, just use them,
// but if any of them is equal to -1, it means that we must find the value for
// it ourselves (unless sizeFlags contains wxSIZE_ALLOW_MINUS_ONE flag, in
// which case -1 is a valid value for x and y)
//
// If sizeFlags contains wxSIZE_AUTO_WIDTH/HEIGHT flags (default), we calculate
// the width/height to best suit our contents, otherwise we reuse the current
// width/height
void wxWindowMSW ::DoSetSize( int x , int y, int width, int height , int sizeFlags)
{
    // get the current size and position...
    int currentX, currentY ;
    int currentW, currentH ;

    GetPosition(& currentX, ¤tY );
    GetSize(& currentW, ¤tH );

    // ... and don't do anything (avoiding flicker) if it's already ok unless
    // we're forced to resize the window
    if ( x == currentX && y == currentY &&
         width == currentW && height == currentH &&
            !( sizeFlags & wxSIZE_FORCE ) )
    {
        return;
    }

    if ( x == wxDefaultCoord && !(sizeFlags & wxSIZE_ALLOW_MINUS_ONE) )
        x = currentX ;
    if ( y == wxDefaultCoord && !(sizeFlags & wxSIZE_ALLOW_MINUS_ONE) )
        y = currentY ;

    AdjustForParentClientOrigin( x, y , sizeFlags);

    wxSize size = wxDefaultSize ;
    if ( width == wxDefaultCoord )
    {
        if ( sizeFlags & wxSIZE_AUTO_WIDTH )
        {
            size = DoGetBestSize ();
            width = size .x;
        }
        else
        {
            // just take the current one
            width = currentW ;
        }
    }

    if ( height == wxDefaultCoord )
    {
        if ( sizeFlags & wxSIZE_AUTO_HEIGHT )
        {
            if ( size .x == wxDefaultCoord )
            {
                size = DoGetBestSize ();
            }
            //else: already called DoGetBestSize() above

            height = size .y;
        }
        else
        {
            // just take the current one
