Class protocol:

 windowSpec

This resource specification was automatically generated
by the UIPainter of ST/X.

Usage example(s):

UIPainter new openOnClass:Tools::VariableList andSelector:#windowSpec Tools::VariableList new openInterface:#windowSpec Tools::VariableList open

 aspectSelectors

This resource specification was automatically generated

Instance protocol:

 classHolder

 classHolder: aValueHolder

 defaultSlaveModeValue

 groupVariablesByInheritance

groupVariablesByInheritance and sortVariablesByName form a 3-state value

Usage example(s):

groupVariablesByInheritance sortVariablesByName

 groupVariablesByInheritance: aValueHolder

self assert:(aValueHolder value isBoolean).

 selectedVariableEntries

automatically generated by UIPainter ...

 selectedVariables

 selectedVariables: aValueHolder

 showClassVarsInVariableList

 showClassVarsInVariableList: aValueHolder

 showingInheritedClassVars

^ true

 sortVariablesByName

groupVariablesByInheritance and sortVariablesByName form a 3-state value

Usage example(s):

groupVariablesByInheritance sortVariablesByName

 sortVariablesByName: aValueHolder

self assert:(aValueHolder value isBoolean).

 variableList

 delayedUpdate: something with: aParameter from: changedObject

self invalidateList.

 makeDependent

 makeIndependent

 selectionChangedByClick

we are not interested in that - get another notification
via the changed valueHolder

 update: something with: aParameter from: changedObject

^ self delayedUpdate:something with:aParameter from:changedObject.

 makeGenerator

 commonPostBuild

(comment from inherited method)
/// listValid ifFalse:[self enqueueDelayedUpdateList "updateList"].

 commonSubClassIn: classes

return true if there is a common subclass

 iconInBrowserForVariable: varName in: aClass

variables for which an entry is found in the xml-spec (if any) are marked
with an <xml>-icon.
This is an inexact heuristic; assumes that if the tag matches, that would be an XML entry for it

 listEntryForClass: cls name: name

 listEntryForClass: cls name: name info: classInfoOrNil

 listOfVariables

testing

 postBuildWith: aBuilder

(comment from inherited method)
this is sent after an interface is built from a spec,
but only iff the appModel is not the same as the topView's app
(i.e. if it is not a build for the same appModel again).
In the other case, postBuildAsSubcanvasWith is invoked.
Can be redefined in subclasses for additional setup after
the view has been built, but not yet opened.
