Detailed Description

Movable Item callback to the GUI.

How the Movable Item callback works: I have this interface defined within AnimatSim. It contains NO references to any managed code, so it is still STL compliant and is not used if we are running stand-alone without a gui. If we are running a gui then when the simulation is created each object creates a managed ManagedAnimatTools.DataObjectInterface class that is used to send data down from the managed GUI to the unmanaged sim. If the part it is talking to is a MovableItem or a structure then it also creates a new unmanaged ManagedAnimatTools::MovableItemCallback class that implements the IMovableItemCallback interface. It contains a gcroot pointer to its associated DataObjectInterface and callback methods for PositionChanged, RotationChanged, and SelectionChanged. When the user clicks on an object in the sim window it is picked and the Select method is called. That method checks to see if the pointer to the IMovableItemCallback is not null. If it is not then it calls the SelectionChanged method, which calls that method on the DataObjectInterface, which fires the SelectionChangedEvent of that MovableItem. However, there was a wrinkle in that any UI class has to be able to handle multi-threaded operations. Initially the treecontrol from DotNetMagic could not do that. I added code in the SelectNode to check if an Invoke was required. if it was then it did a begininvoke to re-fire the method using the UI thread.
