The Command design pattern is based on the idea, that all editing in an application is done by creating instances of command objects.

Command objects apply changes to the edited object and then are stored on a command stack. Furthermore, each command knows how to undo its changes to bring the edited object back to its previous state. As long as the application only uses command objects to change the state of the edited object, it is possible to undo a sequence of commands by traversing the command stack downwards and calling the "undo" method of each command in turn. It is also possible to redo a sequence of commands by traversing the command stack upwards and calling the "redo" method of each command.

Examples:

Create a new command
TQCommand *com = new TQCommand("TH1", hpx, "SetFillColor(Color_t)"

"SetFillColor(Color_t)");
- 1st parameter - the name of class
- 2nd parameter - object
- 3rd parameter - the name of do/redo method
- 4th parameter - the name of undo method Since redo,undo methods are the same, undo name can be omitted, e.g.
  TQCommand *com = new TQCommand("TH1", hpx, "SetFillColor(Color_t)");
  
  For objects derived from TObject class name can be omitted, e.g.
  TQCommand *com = new TQCommand(hpx, "SetFillColor(Color_t)");
Setting undo, redo parameters.
Color_t old_color = hpx->GetFillColor();

Color_t new_color = 4; // blue color

com->SetRedoArgs(1, new_color);

com->SetUndoArgs(1, old_color);

1st argument - the number of undo, redo parameters the other arguments - undo, redo values Since the number of undo,redo parameters is the same one can use
com->SetArgs(1, new_color, old_color);
Undo, redo method execution
com->Redo(); // execute redo method

com->Undo(); // execute undo method
Merged commands It possible to group several commands together so an end user can undo and redo them with one command.
TQCommand *update = new TQCommand(gPad, "Modified()");

com->Add(update);
Macro commands "Merging" allows to create macro commands, e.g.
TQCommand *macro = new TQCommand("my macro");

macro->Add(com1);

macro->Add(com2);

...

During Redo operation commands composing macro command are executed sequentially in direct order (first in first out). During Undo, they are executed in reverse order (last in first out).
Undo manager. TQUndoManager is recorder of undo and redo operations. This is command history list which can be traversed backwards and upwards performing undo and redo operations. To register command TQUndoManager::Add(TObject*) method is used.
TQUndoManager *history = new TQUndoManager();

history->Add(com);

TQUndoManager::Add automatically invokes execution of command's Redo method.

Use TQUndoManager::Undo to undo commands in history list. Redo is Undo for undo action. Use TQUndoManager::Redo method for that

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

TQCommand::TQCommand	(	const char *	clname = `0`,
		void *	obj = `0`,
		const char *	redo = `0`,
		const char *	undo = `0`
	)

Constructor.

Input parameters:

clname - class name.
obj - an object
redo - method or function to do/redo operation
undo - method or function to undo operation

Comments:

if either clname or obj is NULL that means that redo/undo is function
to specify default arguments for redo/undo method/function '=' must precede to argument value.

Example:

TQCommand("TPad", gPad, "SetEditable(=kTRUE)", "SetEditable(=kFALSE)");

undo method can be same as redo one. In that case undo parameter can be omitted.

TQCommand::TQCommand	(	TObject *	obj,

Constructor.

Input parameters:

obj - an object
redo - method or function to do/redo operation
undo - method or function to undo operation

Comments: to specify default arguments for redo/undo method/function '=' must precede to argument value.

Example:

TQCommand(gPad, "SetEditable(=kTRUE)", "SetEditable(=kFALSE)");

undo method can be same as redo one. In that case "undo" can parameter be omitted.

Example:

TQCommand(gPad, "SetFillStyle(Style_t)");

void TQCommand::Compress ( TQCommand * c )

virtual

Compress command.

Compression is analogous to arithmetic "addition operation".

Note:

The compressed command will be deleted.
Execution Compress method invokes Redo action with new redo arguments inherited from compressed command.

More complicated commands might want to override this function.

TQCommand * TQCommand::GetCommand ( )

static

Return a command which is doing redo/undo action.

This static method allows to set undo parameters dynamically, i.e. during execution of Redo function.

Example: For redo actions like TGTextEdit::DelChar() it is not possible to know ahead what character will be deleted. To set arguments for undo action ( e.g. TGTextEdit::InsChar(char)), one needs to call TQCommand::SetUndoArgs(1, character) from inside of TGTextEdit::DelChar() method, i.e.

TQCommand::GetCommand()->SetUndoArgs(1, somechar);
