Member Function Documentation

void TextView::Activated (  bool bIsActive )  [virtual]

Description: This is a callback member that can be overloaded by derived classes to learn when the view is activated and when it is deactivated. The bIsActive parameter tell whether the focus was lost or gained. The view has focus when it is the active view in the active window. Note: This is a hook function that is called by the system to notify about an event. You should never call this member yourself. The window is locked when this member is called. Parameters: bIsActive   - true if the view gain and false if it loose focus. See also: MakeFocus(), WindowActivated() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx) Reimplemented from os::View.

void TextView::Clear (  bool bSendNotify = true )

void TextView::ClearSelection (  bool bSendNotify = true )

void TextView::Copy (  )

void TextView::Cut (  bool bSendNotify = true )

void TextView::Delete (  bool bSendNotify = true )

void TextView::EnableStatusChanged (  bool bIsEnabled )  [virtual]

Reimplemented from os::Control.

bool TextView::FilterKeyStroke (  const std::string * pcString )  [virtual]

void TextView::FontChanged (  Font * pcNewFont )  [virtual]

Description: FontChanged() is a virtual hook function that can be overloaded by inheriting classes to track changes to the view's font. This hook function is called whenver the font is replaced through the View::SetFont() member or if the currently assigned font is modified in a way that whould alter the graphical appearance of the font. Note: View::SetFont() will call FontChanged() syncronously and will cause FontChanged() to be called even if the view is not yet added to a window. Changes done to the font-object cause a message to be sendt to the window thread and FontChanged() will then be called asyncronously from the window thread when the message arrive. For this reason it is only possible to track changes done to the font object itself when the view is added to a window. Parameters: pcNewFont   Pointer to the affected font (same as returned by GetFont()). See also: SetFont(), os::Font Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx) Reimplemented from os::View.

void TextView::FrameSized (  const Point & cDelta )  [virtual]

Description: Overload this member if you need to know when the view is resized. Note: This member is called after the view is resized. If you need the old size you can subtract the cDelta calue from the current size. Parameters: cDelta   The distance the bottom/right corner was moved relative to the upper/left corner. See also: FrameMoved(), SetFrame, ResizeBy(), ResizeTo() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx) Reimplemented from os::View.

const TextView::buffer_type & TextView::GetBuffer (  )  const

size_t TextView::GetCurrentLength (  )  const

IPoint TextView::GetCursor (  )  const

void TextView::GetCursor (  int * x, int * y )  const

const View * TextView::GetEditor (  )  const

Description: The os::TextView class is only responsible for rendering the borders and controlling the scroll-bars. Everything else is handled by a child view crated by the constructor. The os::TextView class provide an interface to all the functionality of the internal editor but in some rare cases it might be useful to have a pointer to this child view. Note: In erlier version (before V0.3.3) the only way to change the font used by the text editor was to retrieve the editor and then set it's font manually. This is not neccessarry (and not possible) any longer. Setting the font on the os::TextView class itself will automatically be relected by the internal editor. Returns: A const pointer to the internal editor. Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx)

size_t TextView::GetMaxLength (  )  const

IPoint TextView::GetMaxPreferredSize (  )  const

bool TextView::GetMultiLine (  )

Returns: True if the view is in multiline mode, false if it is in singleline mode. See also: SetMultiLine() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx)

bool TextView::GetNumeric (  )  const

Returns: True if numeric mode is enabled, false if it is disabled. See also: SetNumeric() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx)

bool TextView::GetPasswordMode (  )  const

Returns: True if the view is in password mode, false if not. See also: SetPasswordMode() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx)

Point TextView::GetPreferredSize (  bool bLargest )  const [virtual]

Reimplemented from os::View.

bool TextView::GetReadOnly (  )  const

void TextView::GetRegion (  std::string * pcBuffer )

bool TextView::GetSelection (  IPoint * pcStart = NULL, IPoint * pcEnd = NULL )

Variant TextView::GetValue (  void )  const [virtual]

Reimplemented from os::Control.

void TextView::Insert (  const char * pzBuffer, bool bSendNotify = true )

bool TextView::Invoked (  Message * pcMessage )  [virtual]

Description: This member is called from Invoke() just before a message is sendt to the target. This allow classes that inherits from os::Invoker to add data to or otherwhice modify the message before it is sendt. The message can also be canceled entirely by returning false from this member. The message passed to Invoked() is a copy of the internal message or the message passed to Invoke() (if any) so any changes made here will not affect the internal message or the message passed to Invoke(). When this method returns the message will imidiatly be sendt to the target and then discarded (unless false is returned in which case the message is simply discarded). The default implementation of this member does nothing and return true. Parameters: pcMessage   Pointer to the message that is about to be sendt. You can do any modification you like to this message (but never delete it). Returns: Normally you should return true to indicate that the message should be sendt. You can however return false if you for some reason want to cancel the invokation. See also: Invoke(), SetMessage(), SetTarget() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx) Reimplemented from os::Control.

void TextView::KeyDown (  const char * pzString, const char * pzRawString, uint32 nQualifiers )  [virtual]

Description: Overload this member if your view need to handle keyboard input. This member is called to allow the view to handle M_KEY_DOWN messages. The most common members are exctracted from the message and passed as parameters but you might need to obtain the raw message with os::Looper::GetCurrentMessage() and find some members yourself if you the data you needed are not passed in. For example if you need the raw key-code for the pressed key you will have to lookup the "_raw_key" member from the message. Parameters: pzString   String containing a single UTF-8 encoded character. This is the character generated by the pressed key according to the current keymap accounting for any qualifiers that might be pressed. pzRawString   Same as pzString except that the key is converted without accounting for qualifiers. Ie. if 'A' is pressed while pressing <SHIFT> pzString will contain 'A' and pzRawString will contain 'a'. nQualifiers   Bitmask describing which qualifiers that was active when the key was pressed. See also: KeyUp(), os::Looper::GetCurrentMessage() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx) Reimplemented from os::View.

void TextView::LabelChanged (  const std::string & cNewLabel )  [virtual]

Reimplemented from os::Control.

void TextView::MakeCsrVisible (  )

void TextView::MouseDown (  const Point & cPosition, uint32 nButtons )  [virtual]

Description: This member is called from the window thread whenever a mouse button is clicked above the view. You can overload this member if your view need to know about mouse-down events. A view will not automatically take focus when clicked so if you want that behaviour you must call MakeFocus() from an overloaded version of this member. The default implementation of this member will call MouseDown() on it's parent view if one exists. Parameters: cPosition   Mouse position in the views coordinate system at the time the mouse was pressed. nButtons   Index of the pressed button. Buttons start at 1 for the left button, 2 for the right button, 3 for the middle button. Additional buttons might be supported by the mouse driver and will then be assigned numbers from 4 and up. See also: MouseUp(), MouseMove(), WheelMoved() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx) Reimplemented from os::View.

void TextView::MouseMove (  const Point & cNewPos, int nCode, uint32 nButtons, Message * pcData )  [virtual]

Description: This member is called from the window thread whenever the mouse is moved above the view or if the view have focus. Oveload this member if your view need to handle mouse-move events. The default implementation of this member will call MouseMove() on it's parent view if one exists. Parameters: cNewPos   New mouse position given in the views coordinate system. nCode   Enter/exit code. This is MOUSE_ENTERED when the mouse first enter the view, MOUSE_EXITED when the mouse leaves the view, MOUSE_INSIDE whenever the mouse move withing the boundary of the view and MOUSE_OUTSIDE when the mouse move outside the view (will only happen if the view have focus). nButtons   Bitmask telling which buttons that are currently pressed. Bit 0 is button 1 (left), bit 1 is button 2 (right), and bit 2 is button 3 (middle), and so on. pcData   Pointer to a Message object containing the dragged data if the user is in the middle of a drag and drop operation. Otherwise this pointer is NULL. Look at BeginDrag() for a more detailed description of the drag and drop system. See also: MouseDown(), MouseUp(), WheelMoved(), BeginDrag() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx) Reimplemented from os::View.

void TextView::MouseUp (  const Point & cPosition, uint32 nButtons, Message * pcData )  [virtual]

Description: This member is called from the window thread whenever a mouse button is released above the view. You can overload this member if your view need to know about mouse-up events or if your view support drag and drop. If mouse-up was the result of ending a drag and drop operation the pcData member will point to a Message containing the dragged data. Look at BeginDrag() for a more detailed description of the drag and drop system. The default implementation of this member will call MouseDown() on it's parent view if one exists. Parameters: cPosition   Mouse position in the views coordinate system at the time the mouse was pressed. nButtons   Index of the pressed button. Buttons start at 1 for the left button, 2 for the right button, 3 for the middle button. Additional buttons might be supported by the mouse driver and will then be assigned numbers from 4 and up. pcData   Pointer to a Message object containing the dragged data if this mouse-up was the end of a drag and drop operation. If no data was dragged it will be NULL. See also: MouseDown(), MouseMove(), WheelMoved() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx) Reimplemented from os::View.

void TextView::Paint (  const Rect & cUpdateRect )  [virtual]

Description: Note: Warning: Parameters: cUpdateRect   A rectangle enclosing all damaged areas. This is just a rough "worst-case", further fine-grained clipping will be performed by the Application Server to avoid updating non-damaged pixels and make the update as fast and flicker-free as possible. See also: Invalidate(), Flush() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx) Reimplemented from os::View.

void TextView::Paste (  bool bSendNotify = true )

void TextView::Select (  const IPoint & cStart, const IPoint & cEnd, bool bSendNotify = true )

void TextView::SelectAll (  bool bSendNotify = true )

void TextView::Set (  const char * pzBuffer, bool bSendNotify = true )

void TextView::SetCursor (  const IPoint & cPos, bool bSelect = false, bool bSendNotify = true )

void TextView::SetCursor (  int x, int y, bool bSelect = false, bool bSendNotify = true )

void TextView::SetEventMask (  uint32 nMask )

void TextView::SetMaxLength (  size_t nMaxLength )

void TextView::SetMaxPreferredSize (  int nWidthChars, int nHeightChars )

void TextView::SetMaxUndoSize (  int nSize )

void TextView::SetMinPreferredSize (  int nWidthChars, int nHeightChars )

void TextView::SetMultiLine (  bool bMultiLine = true )

Description: The TextView have two quite different modes. Multiline and single line. In singleline mode it will only allow a single line of text and it will send the EI_ENTER_PRESSED event (if not masked out) when the user press <ENTER> or <RETURN>. It will also always center the single line vertically inside the views boundary and it will never display scroll bars. In multiline mode it will allow multiple lines of text and <ENTER> and <RETURN> will insert a new line instead of trigging the EI_ENTER_PRESSED event. The view will automatically add and remove vertical and horizontal scroll-bars as needed. Parameters: bMultiLine   True to set the view in multiline mode or false to set it in singleline mode. See also: GetMultiLine(), SetEventMask(), SetPasswordMode() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx)

void TextView::SetNumeric (  bool bNumeric )

Description: When numeric mode is enabled the TextView will only accept valid numbers to be typed. Digits are always accepted. Punctuation (.) is accepted once. "E" is accepted once. Plus and minus (+/-) is accepted as the first character of the line or as the first character after an "E". If you have other restrictions on what should be accepted as input (for example hexadecimal numbers) you can overload the FilterKeyStroke() hook and filter the user input yourself. Parameters: bNumeric   True to enable numeric mode, false to disable it. See also: GetNumeric(), FilterKeyStroke() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx)

void TextView::SetPasswordMode (  bool bPassword = true )

Description: When setting the view in password mode it will render all characters as asterics (*) to hide it's content and it will not allow the user to copy the content to the clipboard. Note: Only single-line TextView's should be set in password mode. Parameters: bPassword   True to enable password mode, false to disable it. See also: GetPasswordMode(), SetMultiLine() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx)

void TextView::SetReadOnly (  bool bFlag = true )

void TextView::SetTabOrder (  int nOrder )  [virtual]

Description: Set the value that will be returned by GetTabOrder(). Parameters: nOrder   - The sorting order. See also: GetTabOrder() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx) Reimplemented from os::View.

void TextView::SetValue (  Variant cValue, bool bInvoke = true )  [virtual]

Reimplemented from os::Control.

void TextView::WheelMoved (  const Point & cDelta )  [virtual]

Description: This member is called from the window thread whenever the user rotates the scroll wheel with the mouse pointer above this view. The default implementation of this member will call WheelMoved() on it's parent view if one exists. Since: V0.3.7 Parameters: cDelta   Delta movement. Normally only the y value is used but it is possible for the mouse driver to also support horizontal scroll wheel functionality. The delta value is normally +/- 1.0 for each "click" on the wheel. See also: MouseMove(), MouseDown(), MouseUp() Author: Kurt Skauen (kurt@atheos.cx) Reimplemented from os::View.
