Window Menu
In Mac OS X there's a super easy way to get a window menu into an application (it's two lines of code), but unfortunately, due to the way the menu system in REALbasic works, we're not able to use the convenient luxury. Instead we have to make our own. A lot of people wonder how to create one and I always refer them to the Window Menu example written by Charles "abstraction is my middle name" Yeomans. Today, needing it myself, I realized how over complicated Charles made it so I wrote my own which requires 1 drag and drop, 1 key combo, 2 popup selections, and 1 line of code.
Oranization
The code is simply laid out so there's not much to say. There is a "WindowMenuManager" module which contains the code that performs zooming, minimizing, "bringing to the front," as well as adding new menu items to the window menu. There is also a WindowMenuItem class which implements the behavior of the menu items for each window. (You needn't ever worry about this class, but feel free to peer into it.) And there is also the WindowMenuWindow window subclass which when used automatically puts a menu item into the window menu and enables the minimize and zoom menu items when proper.
To Use It
Now the simple steps to using the code provided, are simply to drag the three items into your own project as well as the menu if you're starting out (change the menu names if you need to for whatever reason), add a menu handler in the application class for WindowBringAllToFront which simply calls WindowMenuManager.BringAllToFront, and then select "WindowMenuWindow" as the super value for all the windows you want to be included in the Window menu.
Finished
So that's it. It works like a charm. I haven't thoroughly tested this, but it should work great, hopefully even on Windows. As always, you can download the project here.
