13. Essentials of Interactive Computer Graphics: Concepts and Implementation K. Sung, P. Shirley, S. Baer Chapter 5 MVC: component interactions User change application state: Via controllers Application changes its own state Via timer events All controllers and views must present consistent state GUI element must be correct: e.g., slider bar reflecting the falling hero ball position Drawing must be update to date Classic MVC architecture Elaborate protocol to ensure all states are consistent …

39. Essentials of Interactive Computer Graphics: Concepts and Implementation K. Sung, P. Shirley, S. Baer Chapter 5 Tutorial 5.1: Summary Model: is the CModel class. Very simple. Controllers: Two controllers: CTutorialDlg (application container window) CCircleRadiusControls View/Controller Pair: One DrawOnlyHandler: works via UIWindow Collaborations: CTutorialDlg contains all other components Components are not aware of each other CTutorialDlg polls/updates component states and triggers all redraws Because components are not aware of each other, we can insert/delete components from CTutorialDlg. Inconsistent state: May occur in between OnTimer events! However, the inconsistency will only last 25 mSec! Redraw/Paint Performed at the end of 25 mSec! Notice: we do not service the onPaint event! Our redraw occurs at fixed intervals of once every 25 mSec.
