Detailed Description

Main application window providing the MDI interface and entity management.

The MainWindow serves as the primary application window, providing:

• MDI (Multiple Document Interface) workspace for entity windows
• Menu bar with File, Ref Data, Export, Window, and Help menus
• Toolbar with quick access to common operations
• Status bar showing connection state and operation messages
• Entity controller management for different data types (currencies, accounts, etc.)

The window uses an entity controller pattern where each data type (currency, account, trade, etc.) has its own controller that manages windows and operations specific to that entity. This keeps the MainWindow clean and makes it easy to add new entities.

Note

MainWindow creates entity controllers after successful login and destroys them on disconnect to ensure they always have a valid client connection.

Member Function Documentation
