C# Class Habanero.Faces.Base.HabaneroMenu

A class for managing a menu including its list of sub menus (other Habanero Menus). This class is used by a menu builder to build a specific Menu e.g. A main menu e.g. MainMenuWin or an outlook style menu e.g. CollapsibleMenuWin.
With this class you can either AddSubMenu or AddMenuItem. Where adding a sub menu will create another HabaneroMenu and adding a MenuItem will add a leaf item to the menu. Selecting a SubMenu will cause the sub Menu to expand. Selecting the MenuItem(Item) will cause the relevant controller to be executed the order in which this occurs is as follows.
  • Any CustomMenuHandler (set via the Item.CustomHandler will take precidence) i.e. you can make the menu item do anything you want via a custom handler.
  • The FormControl Creator takes precedence next this is typically used by the Form Controller to manage the form (usually in an MDI type environment)
  • The ControlManagerCreator takes Precedence next this is typeically used in an SDI type interface where the menu item swaps out the control. (e.g. in a outlook style menu)
