<div class="textblock"><p>Base class for custom text completer objects. </p>
<p>Custom completer objects used with <a class="el" href="classwx_text_entry.html#ad911d59d6b381a20b0a6c34df2ac1d9f" title="Call this function to enable auto-completion of the text typed in a single-line text control using th...">wxTextEntry::AutoComplete()</a> must derive from this class and implement its pure virtual method returning the completions. You would typically use a custom completer when the total number of completions is too big for performance to be acceptable if all of them need to be returned at once but if they can be generated hierarchically, i.e. only the first component initially, then the second one after the user finished entering the first one and so on.</p>
<p>When inheriting from this class you need to implement its two pure virtual methods. This allows to return the results incrementally and may or not be convenient depending on where do they come from. If you prefer to return all the completions at once, you should inherit from <a class="el" href="classwx_text_completer_simple.html" title="A simpler base class for custom completer objects.">wxTextCompleterSimple</a> instead.</p>
