Part 1 - Classes and Methods / ODWindow

Update

Mac OS

The Update method forces immediate updating of this window, rather than waiting for an update event.

void Update ();

DISCUSSION

When an update event occurs that involves a facet of your part, OpenDoc calls this method, which in turn calls its facet's Update method, which then calls the Draw method associated with the facet's part. Your part might also call this method to force updating when it does not happen automatically, for instance, when there is a mouse-down event and you cannot wait for an update event.
