=head1 NAME

Gtk2::Ex::DateSpinner::CellRenderer -- date cell renderer with DateSpinner for editing

=for test_synopsis my ($treeviewcolumn)

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use Gtk2::Ex::DateSpinner::CellRenderer;
 my $renderer = Gtk2::Ex::DateSpinner::CellRenderer->new;

 $treeviewcolumn->pack_start ($renderer, 0);
 $treeviewcolumn->add_attribute ($renderer, text => 0);
 $renderer->signal_connect (edited => sub { some_code() });

=head1 WIDGET HIERARCHY

C<Gtk2::Ex::DateSpinner::CellRenderer> is a subclass of
C<Gtk2::CellRendererText>.

    Gtk2::Object
      Gtk2::CellRenderer
        Gtk2::CellRendererText
          Gtk2::Ex::DateSpinner::CellRenderer

=head1 DESCRIPTION

C<DateSpinner::CellRenderer> displays an ISO format YYYY-MM-DD date as a
text field.  Editing the field presents both a C<Gtk2::Entry> widget and a
popup C<Gtk2::Ex::DateSpinner>.

    +------------+
    | 2008-06-14 |
    +------------+
    +-----------------------------------------------------+
    | +------+   +----+   +----+         +----+ +------+  |
    | | 2008 |^  |  6 |^  | 14 |^  Sat   | Ok | |Cancel|  |
    | +------+v  +----+v  +----+v        +----+ +------+  |
    +-----------------------------------------------------+

The popup allows mouse clicks or arrow keys to increment or decrement the
date components.  This is good if you often just want to bump a date up or
down.  And when you're displaying YYYY-MM-DD it makes sense to present it
like that for editing.  Of course there's a huge range of other ways you
could display or edit a date.

See F<examples/cellrenderer.pl> for a complete program with a C<TreeView>
and a C<DateSpinner::CellRenderer>.

=head2 Details

The date to display, and edit, is taken from the renderer C<text> property
and must be in YYYY-MM-DD format.  A new edited value is passed to the
C<edited> signal emitted from the renderer in the usual way (see
L<Gtk2::CellRenderer>).  Text renderer properties affect the display and
C<xalign> in the renderer is copied to the Entry widget so it's left, right
or centred while editing the same as displayed (like C<CellRendererText>
does).

Pressing Return in the fields accepts the values.  Pressing Escape cancels
the edit.  Likewise the Ok and Cancel button widgets.  The stock
accelerators activate the buttons too.  These are Alt-O and Alt-C in an
English locale, though Return and Escape are easier to remember.

Note you must set the C<editable> property (per the base class
C<Gtk2::CellRendererText>) to make the C<DateSpinner::CellRenderer>
editable, otherwise nothing happens when you click.  That property can be
controlled by the usual model column or data function mechanisms to make
some rows editable and others not.

=head1 FUNCTIONS

=over 4

=item C<< $renderer = Gtk2::Ex::DateSpinner::CellRenderer->new (key=>value,...) >>

Create and return a new DateSpinner::CellRenderer object.  Optional key/value
pairs set initial properties as per C<< Glib::Object->new >>.  Eg.

    my $renderer = Gtk2::Ex::DateSpinner::CellRenderer->new
                     (editable => 1);

=back

=head1 OTHER NOTES

C<DateSpinner::CellRenderer> creates new a new entry widget and a new popup
window for each edit and both are destroyed on accept or cancel.  This is
the same as the base C<CellRendererText> does.  It's a little wasteful, but
is normally fast enough for casual editing and it might save some memory in
between.

The code for the popup is in the C<Gtk2::Ex::DateSpinner::PopupForEntry>
component.  It's not loaded until the first edit and is only meant for
internal use as yet.

=head1 SEE ALSO

L<Gtk2::Ex::DateSpinner>, L<Gtk2::CellRendererText>

Gtk2-Perl F<examples/cellrenderer_date.pl> does a similar display/edit
popping up a C<Gtk2::Calendar>.  See
L<Gtk2::Ex::Datasheet::DBI|Gtk2::Ex::Datasheet::DBI> for a version of it in
use.
