# View Source wxMDIClientWindow (wx v2.4.3.1)

An MDI client window is a child of `wxMDIParentFrame`, and manages zero or more `wxMDIChildFrame` objects.

The client window is the area where MDI child windows exist. It doesn't have to cover the whole parent frame; other windows such as toolbars and a help window might coexist with it. There can be scrollbars on a client window, which are controlled by the parent window style.

The `wxMDIClientWindow` class is usually adequate without further derivation, and it is created automatically when the MDI parent frame is created. If the application needs to derive a new class, the function `wxMDIParentFrame::OnCreateClient()` (not implemented in wx) must be overridden in order to give an opportunity to use a different class of client window.

Under wxMSW, the client window will automatically have a sunken border style when the active child is not maximized, and no border style when a child is maximized.

See:

- `wxMDIChildFrame`

- `wxMDIParentFrame`

- `wxFrame`

This class is derived, and can use functions, from:

- `wxWindow`

- `wxEvtHandler`

# Summary

## Types

wxMDIClientWindow()

## Functions

createClient(This, Parent)

Equivalent to `createClient(This, Parent, [])`.

createClient/3

Called by `wxMDIParentFrame` immediately after creating the client window.

destroy(This)

Destroys the object

new()

Default constructor.

# Types

# wxMDIClientWindow()

    -type wxMDIClientWindow() :: wx:wx_object().

# Functions

# createClient(This, Parent)

    -spec createClient(This, Parent) -> boolean()
                          when This :: wxMDIClientWindow(), Parent :: wxMDIParentFrame:wxMDIParentFrame().

Equivalent to `createClient(This, Parent, [])`.

# createClient/3

    -spec createClient(This, Parent, [Option]) -> boolean()
                          when
                              This :: wxMDIClientWindow(),
                              Parent :: wxMDIParentFrame:wxMDIParentFrame(),
                              Option :: {style, integer()}.

Called by `wxMDIParentFrame` immediately after creating the client window.

This function may be overridden in the derived class but the base class version must usually be called first to really create the window.

# destroy(This)

    -spec destroy(This :: wxMDIClientWindow()) -> ok.

Destroys the object

# new()

    -spec new() -> wxMDIClientWindow().

Default constructor.

Objects of this class are only created by `wxMDIParentFrame` which uses the default constructor and calls `createClient/3` immediately afterwards.
