These functions provide an interface to mouse events from
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
<STRONG><A HREF="ncurses.3x.html">ncurses(3x)</A></STRONG>. Mouse events are represented by <STRONG>KEY_MOUSE</STRONG>
pseudo-key values in the <STRONG><A HREF="curs_getch.3x.html">wgetch(3x)</A></STRONG> input stream.

To make mouse events visible, use the <STRONG>mousemask</STRONG> function.
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
This will set the mouse events to be reported. By de-
fault, no mouse events are reported. The function will
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
return a mask to indicate which of the specified mouse
events can be reported; on complete failure it returns 0.
If oldmask is non-NULL, this function fills the indicated
location with the previous value of the given window's
mouse event mask.
As a side effect, setting a zero mousemask may turn off
the mouse pointer; setting a nonzero mask may turn it on.
Whether this happens is device-dependent.

Once a class of mouse events has been made visible in a
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
window, calling the <STRONG>wgetch</STRONG> function on that window may re-
turn <STRONG>KEY_MOUSE</STRONG> as an indicator that a mouse event has been
queued. To read the event data and pop the event off the
queue, call <STRONG>getmouse</STRONG>. This function will return <STRONG>OK</STRONG> if a
mouse event is actually visible in the given window, <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
otherwise. When <STRONG>getmouse</STRONG> returns <STRONG>OK</STRONG>, the data deposited
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
as y and x in the event structure coordinates will be
screen-relative character-cell coordinates. The returned
state mask will have exactly one bit set to indicate the
event type. The corresponding data in the queue is marked
invalid. A subsequent call to <STRONG>getmouse</STRONG> will retrieve the
next older item from the queue.
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
</PRE><H3><a name="h3-ungetmouse">ungetmouse</a></H3><PRE>
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
The <STRONG>ungetmouse</STRONG> function behaves analogously to <STRONG>ungetch</STRONG>.
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
It pushes a <STRONG>KEY_MOUSE</STRONG> event onto the input queue, and as-
sociates with that event the given state data and screen-
relative character-cell coordinates.
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
</PRE><H3><a name="h3-wenclose">wenclose</a></H3><PRE>
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
The <STRONG>wenclose</STRONG> function tests whether a given pair of
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
screen-relative character-cell coordinates is enclosed by
a given window, returning <STRONG>TRUE</STRONG> if it is and <STRONG>FALSE</STRONG> other-
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
wise. It is useful for determining what subset of the
screen windows enclose the location of a mouse event.
</PRE><H3><a name="h3-wmouse_trafo">wmouse_trafo</a></H3><PRE>
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
The <STRONG>wmouse_trafo</STRONG> function transforms a given pair of coor-
dinates from stdscr-relative coordinates to coordinates
relative to the given window or vice versa. The resulting
stdscr-relative coordinates are not always identical to
window-relative coordinates due to the mechanism to re-
serve lines on top or bottom of the screen for other pur-
poses (see the <STRONG>ripoffline</STRONG> and <STRONG><A HREF="curs_slk.3x.html">slk_init(3x)</A></STRONG> calls, for ex-
ample).
<STRONG>o</STRONG> If the parameter <STRONG>to_screen</STRONG> is <STRONG>TRUE</STRONG>, the pointers <STRONG>pY,</STRONG>
<STRONG>pX</STRONG> must reference the coordinates of a location inside
the window <STRONG>win</STRONG>. They are converted to window-relative
coordinates and returned through the pointers. If the
conversion was successful, the function returns <STRONG>TRUE</STRONG>.
<STRONG>o</STRONG> If one of the parameters was NULL or the location is
not inside the window, <STRONG>FALSE</STRONG> is returned.
<STRONG>o</STRONG> If <STRONG>to_screen</STRONG> is <STRONG>FALSE</STRONG>, the pointers <STRONG>pY,</STRONG> <STRONG>pX</STRONG> must refer-
ence window-relative coordinates. They are converted
to stdscr-relative coordinates if the window <STRONG>win</STRONG> en-
closes this point. In this case the function returns
<STRONG>TRUE</STRONG>.
<STRONG>o</STRONG> If one of the parameters is NULL or the point is not
inside the window, <STRONG>FALSE</STRONG> is returned. The referenced
coordinates are only replaced by the converted coordi-
nates if the transformation was successful.
</PRE><H3><a name="h3-mouse_trafo">mouse_trafo</a></H3><PRE>
The <STRONG>mouse_trafo</STRONG> function performs the same translation as
<STRONG>wmouse_trafo</STRONG>, using stdscr for <STRONG>win</STRONG>.
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
</PRE><H3><a name="h3-mouseinterval">mouseinterval</a></H3><PRE>
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
The <STRONG>mouseinterval</STRONG> function sets the maximum time (in thou-
sands of a second) that can elapse between press and re-
lease events for them to be recognized as a click. Use
<STRONG>mouseinterval(0)</STRONG> to disable click resolution. This func-
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
tion returns the previous interval value. Use <STRONG>mouseinter-</STRONG>
<STRONG>val(-1)</STRONG> to obtain the interval without altering it. The
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
default is one sixth of a second.
</PRE><H3><a name="h3-has_mouse">has_mouse</a></H3><PRE>
The <STRONG>has_mouse</STRONG> function returns <STRONG>TRUE</STRONG> if the mouse driver
has been successfully initialized.
Note that mouse events will be ignored when input is in
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
cooked mode, and will cause an error beep when cooked mode
is being simulated in a window by a function such as <STRONG>get-</STRONG>
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
<STRONG>str</STRONG> that expects a linefeed for input-loop termination.
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
</PRE><H2><a name="h2-RETURN-VALUE">RETURN VALUE</a></H2><PRE>
<STRONG>getmouse</STRONG> and <STRONG>ungetmouse</STRONG> return the integer <STRONG>ERR</STRONG> upon fail-
ure or <STRONG>OK</STRONG> upon successful completion:
<STRONG>getmouse</STRONG>
returns an error.
<STRONG>o</STRONG> If no mouse driver was initialized, or if the mask
parameter is zero,
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
<STRONG>o</STRONG> It also returns an error if no more events remain
in the queue.
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
<STRONG>ungetmouse</STRONG>
returns an error if the FIFO is full.
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
<STRONG>mousemask</STRONG> returns the mask of reportable events.
<STRONG>mouseinterval</STRONG> returns the previous interval value, unless
the terminal was not initialized. In that case, it re-
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
turns the maximum interval value (166).
<STRONG>wenclose</STRONG> and <STRONG>wmouse_trafo</STRONG> are boolean functions returning
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
<STRONG>TRUE</STRONG> or <STRONG>FALSE</STRONG> depending on their test result.
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
</PRE><H2><a name="h2-PORTABILITY">PORTABILITY</a></H2><PRE>
These calls were designed for <STRONG><A HREF="ncurses.3x.html">ncurses(3x)</A></STRONG>, and are not
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
found in SVr4 curses, 4.4BSD curses, or any other previous
version of curses.
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
The feature macro <STRONG>NCURSES_MOUSE_VERSION</STRONG> is provided so the
preprocessor can be used to test whether these features
are present. If the interface is changed, the value of
<STRONG>NCURSES_MOUSE_VERSION</STRONG> will be incremented. These values
for <STRONG>NCURSES_MOUSE_VERSION</STRONG> may be specified when configur-
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
ing ncurses:
1 has definitions for reserved events. The mask uses
28 bits.
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
2 adds definitions for button 5, removes the defini-
tions for reserved events. The mask uses 29 bits.
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
The order of the <STRONG>MEVENT</STRONG> structure members is not guaran-
teed. Additional fields may be added to the structure in
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
the future.
Under <STRONG><A HREF="ncurses.3x.html">ncurses(3x)</A></STRONG>, these calls are implemented using ei-
ther xterm's built-in mouse-tracking API or platform-spe-
2005-10-10 02:41:57 +08:00
cific drivers including
<STRONG>o</STRONG> Alessandro Rubini's gpm server
<STRONG>o</STRONG> FreeBSD sysmouse
<STRONG>o</STRONG> OS/2 EMX
If you are using an unsupported configuration, mouse
events will not be visible to <STRONG><A HREF="ncurses.3x.html">ncurses(3x)</A></STRONG> (and the <STRONG>mouse-</STRONG>
2004-02-09 10:15:26 +08:00
<STRONG>mask</STRONG> function will always return <STRONG>0</STRONG>).
If the terminfo entry contains a <STRONG>XM</STRONG> string, this is used
in the xterm mouse driver to control the way the terminal
2004-02-09 10:15:26 +08:00
is initialized for mouse operation. The default, if <STRONG>XM</STRONG> is
not found, corresponds to private mode 1000 of xterm:
\E[?1000%?%p1%{1}%=%th%el%;
The <EM>z</EM> member in the event structure is not presently used.
It is intended for use with touch screens (which may be
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
pressure-sensitive) or with 3D-mice/trackballs/power
gloves.
The <STRONG>ALL_MOUSE_EVENTS</STRONG> class does not include <STRONG>RE-</STRONG>
<STRONG>PORT_MOUSE_POSITION</STRONG>. They are distinct. For example, in
xterm, wheel/scrolling mice send position reports as a se-
quence of presses of buttons 4 or 5 without matching but-
ton-releases.
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
</PRE><H2><a name="h2-BUGS">BUGS</a></H2><PRE>
Mouse events under xterm will not in fact be ignored dur-
ing cooked mode, if they have been enabled by <STRONG>mousemask</STRONG>.
Instead, the xterm mouse report sequence will appear in
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
the string read.
Mouse events under xterm will not be detected correctly in
a window with its keypad bit off, since they are inter-
preted as a variety of function key. Your terminfo de-
scription should have <STRONG>kmous</STRONG> set to "\E[M" (the beginning
of the response from xterm for mouse clicks). Other val-
ues for <STRONG>kmous</STRONG> are permitted, but under the same assump-
tion, i.e., it is the beginning of the response.
Because there are no standard terminal responses that
would serve to identify terminals which support the xterm
mouse protocol, <STRONG>ncurses</STRONG> assumes that if your $TERM envi-
ronment variable contains "xterm", or <STRONG>kmous</STRONG> is defined in
2002-10-13 11:35:53 +08:00
the terminal description, then the terminal may send mouse
2000-07-09 10:46:08 +08:00
events.
