<module name="TaskDlgEmulation">
<short>
Implements an emulated task dialog for platforms where the Task Dialog API is 
not supported.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<file>TaskDlgEmulation.pp</file> contains types, routines, and variable used to 
implement a non-native, emulated Task Dialog. It is used in widgetset classes 
for platforms where the task dialog API is not available, or not supported for 
a specific version of an operating system. It emulates the functionality of 
TaskDialogIndirect available on Windows Vista and later versions. It adds 
capabilities that TaskDialogIndirect does not have, including:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Query via combo-box.
</li>
<li>
Query via single line edit, which supports masking the input for use with e.g. passwords.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
It contains TLCLTaskDialog - a dynamically configured form displayed when a 
task dialog is executed using its configuration settings. The emulated dialog 
does not aim to be visually (near) exactly the same as the Vista+ native dialog.
</p>
<p>
This dialog is invoked by <var>Dialogs.TTaskDialog.Execute</var> on systems 
that do not support the native Vista+ dialog, and it is also used as a fallback 
in case the native Vista+ dialog fails (when passed invalid combination of 
arguments). The dialog therefore uses the Flags property of 
<var>Dialogs.TTaskDialog</var>, but not all of these flags are supported (yet) 
in the emulated dialog.
</p>
<p>
<file>TaskDlgEmulation.pp</file> is part of the Lazarus Component Library 
(<b>LCL</b>). This unit was originally a part of the freeware Synopse mORMot 
framework, and licensed under a MPL/GPL/LGPL tri-license; version 1.19. It has 
been relicensed with permission from Arnaud Bouchez, the original author, and 
all contributors. The original name was SynTaskDialog.pas.
</p>
<remark>
Added in LCL version 4.0 as replacement for the deprecated types in the 
<file>lcltaskdialog.pas</file> unit.

<element name="TLCLTaskDialog">
<short>
Implements an emulated (non-native) task dialog form.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>TLCLTaskDialog</var> is a <var>TForm</var> descendant which implements the 
dialog form displayed when an emulated (non-native) <var>TTaskDialog</var> is 
executed. It imitates the content, layout, and behavior for the dialog 
displayed for the Windows Task Dialog API.
</p>
<p>
It provides support for use of TTaskDialog on platforms which do not implement 
the Task Dialog API - including Windows versions prior to Windows Vista. Most 
of the properties, methods, and members in the class are declared as private 
and are available to the methods in the class instance. Application do not 
normally create an instance of TLCLTaskDialog; it is created at run-time when 
TTaskDialog calls its Execute method.
</p>
<p>
TLCLTaskDialog allows the dialog form to be configured at run-time using the 
settings specified in the TTaskDialog passed as the Owner of the form. The 
Execute methods handles initializing the form instance, displaying the dialog, 
capturing the modal result value, and returning changes to the TTaskDialog for 
the emulated task dialog form.

<short>
Implements the event handler signalled when the expand/collapse button (expando 
control) has been clicked on the task dialog.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>OnExpandButtonClicked</var> is a method method used to perform actions 
needed when the expand/collapse button for the task dialog has been clicked. It 
is assigned during form set-up to the OnClick event handler for the TButton 
instance used on the form.
</p>
<p>
OnExpandButtonClicked ensures that the correct private method is called for the 
button click; the current value in the expanded state is used to determine 
whether expandable text is changed from expanded to collapsed, or vice versa. 
It also sets the new value for the private expanded state member.
</p>
<p>
The DoOnExpandButtonClicked in the TTaskDialog instance for the dialog form is 
called with the new value for the Expanded property.

<element name="TLCLTaskDialog.SetupControls">
<short>
Configures and initializes properties and controls used on the emulated task 
dialog form.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>SetupControls</var> is a method used to configure / initialize controls 
and content on the emulated task dialog. Values from the <var>TTaskDialog</var> 
owner are copied to the dialog form, including:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Buttons
</li>
<li>
CommonButtons
</li>
<li>
RadioButtons
</li>
<li>
Caption (application title or main form caption when omitted)
</li>
<li>
Title (or the IconMessage when omitted)
</li>
<li>
Text
</li>
<li>
ExpandButtonCaption
</li>
<li>
CollapseButtonCaption
</li>
<li>
ExpandedText
</li>
<li>
FooterText
</li>
<li>
VerificationText
</li>
</ul>
<p>
Values from the Flags property in TTaskDIalog are used to determine which 
content and UI elements are enabled on the dialog form.
</p>
<p>
SetupControls calls private method in the class to layout and align the 
elements on the dialog form. This includes setting the border style, border 
icons, and position for the dialog form. The font typeface and size used on the 
dialog are assigned in the method.
</p>
<p>
It creates and populates three (3) panels with the controls needed for the 
dialog. The top panel holds the main icon, title, text, and expanded text. The 
middle panel contains any radio buttons, command link buttons, query controls, 
or the progress bar for the dialog. The bottom panel contains the remainder of 
the controls on the dialog form including the expand /collapse button, 
verification check box, and footer text.
</p>
<p>
A timer enabled for the form is created, initialized, and started in the method.
</p>
<p>
SetupControls calculates the width needed for the dialog form. It uses the 
length of common elements (like Title, Text, and the cumlative length for 
button captions) when an explict Width has not been assigned for the task 
dialog. A minimum width of 120 pixels is assumed, but common calculated widths 
include 300, 420, amd 480 pixels. A minimum height of 200 pixels is assumed.
</p>
<p>
SetupControls is called from the Execute method before the ShowModal method is 
called for the emulated task dialog.

<element name="TLCLTaskDialog.KeyDown">
<short>
Implements the OnKeyDown event handler for the task dialog.
</short>
<descr>
<p>
<var>KeyDown</var> is an overridden method in <var>TLCLTaskDialog</var> which 
implements the handler routine for OnKeyDown events in the dialog form. 
KeyDown ensures that Esc, Alt+F4, and F1 key down events are applied properly 
for the emulated task dialog.
</p>
<p>
When BorderIcons indicates that the dialog form can be closed (contains 
biSystemMenu), the Esc (Escape) key can be used to close the dialog form by 
calling the Close method. Without the system border icon, the Esc key is not 
handled in the method.
</p>
<p>
When Key and Shift indicate that the Alt+F4 key was pressed, the value in Key 
is digested (set to 0). The native task dialog blocks Alt+F4 to close the 
dialog, so it is blocked in the emulated task dialog as well.
</p>
<p>
When Key indicates that F1 was pressed, the DoOnHelp method in the TTaskDialog 
instance is called to signal an assigned OnHelp event handler in the task 
dialog. The value in Key is set to 0 to consume the key event.
</p>
<p>
KeyDown calls the inherited method prior to exit.

</p>
<p>
DoShow calls the inherited method on entry to signal the OnShow event handler

AParentWnd contains the handle for the form that is used as the parent for the 
dialog form. The value is compared to the handles for the forms on the current 
Screen. When found, the form instance is assigned to the PopupParent property 
for the dialog form. When not found, the currently active form on the screen is 
used as the PopupParent.
</p>
<p>
Execute calls the ShowModal method (in TCustomForm) to manage modal display of 
the dialog form in the application, and to start the processing loop for the 
modal form. ShowModal sets the return value for the method.
</p>
<p>
When ShowModal has been completed, values from the updated form are applied to 
the TTaskDialog instance which created the dialog. This includes values like:
</p>
<ul>
<li>The query result and query item index (when used).</li>
<li>The value from the simple query control (when used).</li>
<li>The verification check box state (when used).</li>
<li>
The identifier for the selected radio button returned in the ARadioRes argument.
</li>
</ul>

<p>
<var>ExecuteLCLTaskDialog</var> is an <var>Integer</var> function used to 
execute an emulated task dialog form for the specified 
<var>TCustomTaskDialog</var> instance. It is a convenience routine called from 
the Execute method in the widgetset class instance for those platforms which do 
not support the native Task Dialog API.

ExecuteLCLTaskDialog creates a temporary instance of TLCLTaskDialog and calls 
its Execute method using the arguments to the routine. The return value 
contains the result from the Execute method in the dialog form; -1 indicates 
that ADlg did not contain a valid TCustomTaskDialog instance. Otherwise, it 
contains the modal result from the dialog form.
