wxPrinter - Functions for wxPrinter class

wxPrinter() = wx:wx_object()

       This class represents the Windows or PostScript printer, and is the vehicle through which printing may be
       launched by an application.

       Printing  can  also  be  achieved  through  using of lower functions and classes, but this and associated
       classes provide a more convenient and general method of printing.

new()->wxPrinter()new(Options::[Option])->wxPrinter()

              Types:

                 Option = {data, wxPrintDialogData:wxPrintDialogData()}

              Constructor.

              Pass an optional pointer to a block of print dialog data, which will  be  copied  to  the  printer
              object's local data.

              See: wxPrintDialogData, wxPrintDatacreateAbortWindow(This,Parent,Printout)->wxDialog:wxDialog()

              Types:

                 This = wxPrinter()
                 Parent = wxWindow:wxWindow()
                 Printout = wxPrintout:wxPrintout()

              Creates the default printing abort window, with a cancel button.

       getAbort(This)->boolean()

              Types:

                 This = wxPrinter()

              Returns true if the user has aborted the print job.

       getLastError()->wx:wx_enum()

              Return last error.

              Valid after calling print/4, printDialog/2 or wxPrintPreview:print/2.

              These functions set last error to wxPRINTER_NO_ERROR if no error happened.

              Returned value is one of the following:

       getPrintDialogData(This)->wxPrintDialogData:wxPrintDialogData()

              Types:

                 This = wxPrinter()

              Returns the print data associated with the printer object.

       print(This,Parent,Printout)->boolean()

              Types:

                 This = wxPrinter()
                 Parent = wxWindow:wxWindow()
                 Printout = wxPrintout:wxPrintout()

       print(This,Parent,Printout,Options::[Option])->boolean()

              Types:

                 This = wxPrinter()
                 Parent = wxWindow:wxWindow()
                 Printout = wxPrintout:wxPrintout()
                 Option = {prompt, boolean()}

              Starts the printing process.

              Provide  a  parent  window,  a  user-defined  wxPrintout  object  which controls the printing of a
              document, and whether the print dialog should be invoked first.

              print/4 could return false if there was a problem initializing the printer device context (current
              printer not set, for example) or the user cancelled printing. Call getLastError/0 to get  detailed
              information about the kind of the error.

       printDialog(This,Parent)->wxDC:wxDC()

              Types:

                 This = wxPrinter()
                 Parent = wxWindow:wxWindow()

              Invokes the print dialog.

              If  successful  (the  user  did not press Cancel and no error occurred), a suitable device context
              will be returned; otherwise NULL is returned; call  getLastError/0  to  get  detailed  information
              about the kind of the error.

              Remark: The application must delete this device context to avoid a memory leak.

       reportError(This,Parent,Printout,Message)->ok

              Types:

                 This = wxPrinter()
                 Parent = wxWindow:wxWindow()
                 Printout = wxPrintout:wxPrintout()
                 Message = unicode:chardata()

              Default error-reporting function.

       setup(This,Parent)->boolean()

              Types:

                 This = wxPrinter()
                 Parent = wxWindow:wxWindow()

              Invokes the print setup dialog.

              Deprecated: The setup dialog is obsolete, though retained for backward compatibility.

       destroy(This::wxPrinter())->ok

              Destroys the object.
