This tutorial is a continuation on [[VGUI2:_Creating_a_panel|Creating A Panel]]
In Half-Life 1, controls were added via code from the Server and Client libraries and is still supported by the source
engine and controls can be added. There are more options for these controls to be customized rather then in RES files.
This is very usefull if you do not want people to modify your panel controls via RES files.
You have the choice in-between 50 elements, individually stored in the vgui_controls folder.
First start off by adding our header file.
===MyPanel.cpp===
<source lang="cpp">
//The following include files are necessary to allow your MyPanel.cpp to compile.
#include "cbase.h"
#include "IMyPanel.h"
using namespace vgui;
#include <vgui/IVGui.h>
#include <vgui_controls/Frame.h>
// Non RES-File Control Tutorial
#include <vgui_controls/Button.h>
//CMyPanel class: Tutorial example class
class CMyPanel : public vgui::Frame
{
DECLARE_CLASS_SIMPLE(CMyPanel, vgui::Frame);
//CMyPanel : This Class / vgui::Frame : BaseClass
CMyPanel(vgui::VPANEL parent); // Constructor
~CMyPanel(){}; // Destructor
protected:
//VGUI overrides:
virtual void OnTick();
virtual void OnCommand(const char* pcCommand);
private:
//Other used VGUI control Elements:
        // Our Code Defined Control
        Button *m_pCloseButton;
};
</source>
Ok now we got our control defined, now we need to create it here but you can still have both the res file and code defined controls at the same time. We are going to be assigning a click and release sound to this button.
<source lang="cpp">
// Constuctor: Initializes the Panel
CMyPanel::CMyPanel(vgui::VPANEL parent) : BaseClass(NULL, "MyPanel")
{
SetParent( parent );
SetKeyBoardInputEnabled( true );
SetMouseInputEnabled( true );
SetProportional( false );
SetTitleBarVisible( true );
SetMinimizeButtonVisible( false );
SetMaximizeButtonVisible( false );
SetCloseButtonVisible( false );
SetSizeable( false );
SetMoveable( false );
SetVisible( true );
SetScheme(vgui::scheme()->LoadSchemeFromFile("resource/SourceScheme.res", "SourceScheme"));
LoadControlSettings("resource/UI/MyPanel.res");
vgui::ivgui()->AddTickSignal( GetVPanel(), 100 );
// Code Defined Control Creation
        m_pCloseButton = new Button(this, "", "Close", this, "turnoff");
        m_pCloseButton->SetPos(314, 162);
m_pCloseButton->SetDepressedSound("common/bugreporter_succeeded.wav");
        m_pCloseButton->SetReleadedSound("ui/buttonclick.wav");
}
</source>
