Overview

The Frame Component API provides functions for handling Frame Component of Component Based Application state changes or system events.

Registering Callbacks for Frame Component State Change Events

The frame component state change events include the following:

Typedef Documentation

typedef void(* frame_component_action_cb)(component_h context, const char *action, app_control_h app_control, void *user_data)

Called when another application sends a launch request to the component.

Before calling frame_component_start_cb(), this callback function is called.

Since :
5.5
Remarks:
After this callback function returns, the handle of the app_control is released. Therefore, if you want to use the handle after returning this callback function, you MUST copy it by using app_control_clone() function.
The action must not be deallocated by the component. The action is managed by the platform and will be released when the app_control action is unregistered.
The context should not be released. The context can be used only in the callback.
The app_control should not be released. The app_control can be used only in the callback. To use outside, make a copy using app_control_clone().
Parameters:
[in]contextThe context of the frame component instance
[in]actionThe name of the app_control action
[in]app_controlThe handle of the app_control
[in]user_dataThe user data passed from component_based_app_add_frame_component() function
See also:
component_register_action()
component_deregister_action()
typedef Evas_Object*(* frame_component_create_cb)(component_h context, void *user_data)

Called when the frame component instance is created.

The returned Evas_Object MUST NOT be released using evas_object_del(). The platform frees the window when the frame component instance is destroyed.

Since :
5.5
Remarks:
The context should not be released. The context can be used only in the callback.
Parameters:
[in]contextThe context of the frame component instance
[in]user_dataThe user data passed from component_based_app_add_frame_component() function
Returns:
The Evas object on success, otherwise a null pointer on failure.
See also:
frame_component_get_window()
typedef void(* frame_component_destroy_cb)(component_h context, void *user_data)
