DESCRIPTION


 
 The Cdk buttonbox widget creates a buttonbox box with a message and a varied number of
 buttons to choose from.
 The following functions create or manipulate the Cdk buttonbox box widget.
 

AVAILABLE FUNCTIONS


 
 
activateCDKButtonbox
activates the buttonbox widget and lets the user interact with the widget. The parameter buttonbox is a pointer to a non-NULL buttonbox widget. If the actions parameter is passed with a non-NULL value, the characters in the array will be injected into the widget. To activate the widget interactively pass in a NULL pointer for actions. If the character entered into this widget is RETURN or TAB then this function will return a value from 0 to the number of buttons -1, representing the button selected. It will also set the widget data exitType to vNORMAL. If the character entered into this widget was ESCAPE then the widget will return a value of -1 and the widget data exitType will be set to vESCAPE_HIT.
destroyCDKButtonbox
removes the widget from the screen and releases any memory the object used.
drawCDKButtonbox
draws the buttonbox widget on the screen. If the box parameter is true, the widget is drawn with a box.
drawCDKButtonboxButtons
draws the buttons.
eraseCDKButtonbox
removes the widget from the screen. This does NOT destroy the widget.
getCDKButtonboxBox
returns true if the widget will be drawn with a box around it.
getCDKButtonboxButtonCount
returns the number of buttons in the button box.
getCDKButtonboxCurrentButton
returns the current button-number.
getCDKButtonboxHighlight
returns the highlight attribute of the widget.
injectCDKButtonbox
injects a single character into the widget. The parameter buttonbox is a pointer to a non-NULL buttonbox widget. The parameter character is the character to inject into the widget. The return value and side-effect (setting the widget data exitType) depend upon the injected character:
RETURN or TAB
the function returns a value ranging from zero to one less than the number of buttons, representing the button selected. The widget data exitType is set to vNORMAL.
ESCAPE
the function returns -1. vESCAPE_HIT. The widget data exitType is set to vESCAPE_HIT.
Otherwise
unless modified by preprocessing, postprocessing or key bindings, the function returns -1. The widget data exitType is set to vEARLY_EXIT.
moveCDKButtonbox
moves the given widget to the given position. The parameters xpos and ypos are the new position of the widget. The parameter xpos may be an integer or one of the pre-defined values TOP, BOTTOM, and CENTER. The parameter ypos may be an integer or one of the pre-defined values LEFT, RIGHT, and CENTER. The parameter relative states whether the xpos/ypos pair is a relative move or an absolute move. For example, if xpos = 1 and ypos = 2 and relative = TRUE, then the widget would move one row down and two columns right. If the value of relative was FALSE then the widget would move to the position (1,2). Do not use the values TOP, BOTTOM, LEFT, RIGHT, or CENTER when relative = TRUE. (weird things may happen). The final parameter refresh is a boolean value which states whether the widget will get refreshed after the move.
newCDKButtonbox
creates a pointer to a buttonbox widget. Parameters:
screen
is the screen you wish this widget to be placed in.
xpos
controls the placement of the object along the horizontal axis. It may be an integer or one of the pre-defined values LEFT, RIGHT, and CENTER.
ypos
controls the placement of the object along the vertical axis. It be an integer value or one of the pre-defined values TOP, BOTTOM, and CENTER.
height and
width
control the height and width of the widget.
title
is the title of the widget.
rows
is the number of rows of buttons.
cols

buttonCount
is the number of elements in the buttons array.
highlight

box
is true if the widget should be drawn with a box around it.
shadow
turns the shadow on or off around this widget.
If the widget could not be created then a NULL pointer is returned.
positionCDKButtonbox
allows the user to move the widget around the screen via the cursor/keypad keys. See cdk_position (3) for key bindings.
setCDKButtonbox
lets the programmer modify certain elements of an existing buttonbox widget. The parameter names correspond to the same parameter names listed in the newCDKButtonbox function.
setCDKButtonboxBackgroundAttrib
sets the background attribute of the widget. The parameter attribute is a curses attribute, e.g., A_BOLD.

setCDKButtonboxBox
sets true if the widget will be drawn with a box around it.

setCDKButtonboxCurrentButton
sets the current button-number for the box.
setCDKButtonboxHighlight

setCDKButtonboxLLChar
sets the lower left hand corner of the widget's box to the given character.
setCDKButtonboxLRChar
sets the lower right hand corner of the widget's box to the given character.
setCDKButtonboxPostProcess
allows the user to have the widget call a function after the key has been applied to the widget. The parameter function is the callback function. (See cdk_process).
setCDKButtonboxPreProcess
allows the user to have the widget call a function after a key is hit and before the key is applied to the widget. The parameter function is the callback function. (See cdk_process).
setCDKButtonboxULChar
