NAME

Padre::Wx::Role::Main - Convenience methods for children of the main window

DESCRIPTION

This role implements the fairly common method pattern for Wx elements that are children of Padre::Wx::Main.

It provides accessors for easy access to the most commonly needed elements, and shortcut integration with the Padre::Current context system.

METHODS

ide

    my $ide = $object->ide;

Get the Padre IDE instance that this object is a child of.

config

    my $config = $object->config;

Get the Padre::Config for the current user. Provided mainly as a convenience because it is needed so often.

Please note that this method does NOT integrate with the Padre::Current context system. Any project-specific configuration of overrides of default behaviour will not be present in this configuration object.

For a project-aware configuration, use the following instead.

  $self->current->config;

main

    my $main = $object->main;

Get the Padre::Wx::Main main window that this object is a child of.

aui

    my $aui = $object->aui;

Convenient access to the Wx Advanced User Interface (AUI) Manager object.

current

    my $current = $object->current;

Get a new Padre::Current context object, for access to other parts of the current context.
