Remarks

"Request for refreshing the display" event

One of the events associated with the window is "Request for refreshing the display". This event is used to group the code for refreshing the window controls: content of controls, status (visible, grayed, etc.), caption to refresh, etc.

This event may expect parameters. Simply declare a procedure in the event. For example:

// Request for refreshing the display
PROCEDURE AskForRefresh(RefreshType is boolean)

This event is started upon request by the following functions:

RequestRefreshUI: Runs the event "Request for refreshing the display" at the end of the current process (asynchronous execution).
ExecuteRefreshUI: Immediately runs the event "Request for refreshing the display".
Versions 22 and later
RequestRefreshUIParent: Runs the event "Request for refreshing the display" of the higher level at the end of the current process (asynchronous execution).

"Presenter" attribute

The presenter attribute is used to associate a class of the presenter layer with a view (window, page or report).

This attribute is mainly used in the global declaration of the windows generated by the MVP RAD in WINDEV.

For example:

PROCEDURE WIN_Table_MyExampleFile(...
gclPresenter is PTableMyExampleFile dynamic<presenter>=Null)

Thanks to this attribute, the call to the "Request for refreshing the display" window event will be triggered by:

any call to RequestRefreshUI from a class declared as <presenter>,
any call from any class associated with the <presenter> class.

See MVP RAD: "Presenter" attribute for more details.
