<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
|
||
|
The function <B>set_field_buffer</B> sets the numbered buffer of
|
||
|
the given field to contain a given string. Buffer 0 is
|
||
|
the displayed value of the field; other numbered buffers
|
||
|
may be allocated by applications through the <B>nbuf</B> argument
|
||
|
of (see <B><A HREF="form_field_new.3x.html">form_field_new(3x)</A></B>) but are not manipulated by the
|
||
|
forms library. The function <B>field_buffer</B> returns the
|
||
|
address of the buffer. Please note that this buffer has
|
||
|
always the length of the buffer, that means that it may
|
||
|
typically contain trailing spaces. If you entered leading
|
||
|
spaces the buffer may also contain them. If you want the
|
||
|
raw data, you must write your own routine that copies the
|
||
|
value out of the buffer and removes the leading and trail-
|
||
|
ing spaces. Please note also, that subsequent operations
|
||
|
on the form will probably change the content of the
|
||
|
buffer. So don't use it for long term storage of the
|
||
|
entered form data.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The function <B>set_field_status</B> sets the associated status
|
||
|
flag of <I>field</I>; <B>field_status</B> gets the current value. The
|
||
|
status flag is set to a nonzero value whenever the field
|
||
|
changes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The function <B>set_max_field</B> sets the maximum size for a
|
||
|
dynamic field. An argument of 0 turns off any maximum
|
||
|
size threshold for that field.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
</PRE>
|
||
|
<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
|
||
|
The <B>field_buffer</B> function returns NULL on error.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The <B>field_status</B> function returns <B>TRUE</B> or <B>FALSE</B>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The remaining routines return one of the following:
|
||
|
|
||
|
<B>E_OK</B> The routine succeeded.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<B>E_SYSTEM_ERROR</B>
|
||
|
System error occurred (see <B>errno</B>).
|
||
|
|
||
|
<B>E_BAD_ARGUMENT</B>
|
||
|
Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argu-
|
||
|
ment.
