.SH NAME
|
|
\fBform_field_buffer\fR - field buffer control
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
\fB#include <form.h>\fR
|
|
.br
|
|
int set_field_buffer(FIELD *field, int buf, const char *value);
|
|
.br

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The function \fBset_field_buffer\fR 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 \fBnbuf\fR
|
|
argument of (see \fBform_field_new\fR(3X)) but are not manipulated by the forms
|
|
library. The function \fBfield_buffer\fR 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 trailing 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 \fBset_field_status\fR sets the associated status flag of
|
|
\fIfield\fR; \fBfield_status\fR gets the current value. The status flag
|
|
is set to a nonzero value whenever the field changes.
|
|
|
|
The function \fBset_max_field\fR sets the maximum size for a dynamic field.
|
|
An argument of 0 turns off any maximum size threshold for that field.
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
The \fBfield_buffer\fR function returns NULL on error.
|
|
|
|
The \fBfield_status\fR function returns \fBTRUE\fR or \fBFALSE\fR.
|
|
|
|
The remaining routines return one of the following:
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
\fBE_OK\fR
|
|
The routine succeeded.
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
\fBE_SYSTEM_ERROR\fR
|
|
System error occurred (see \fBerrno\fR).
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
\fBE_BAD_ARGUMENT\fR
|
|
Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
|
|
.SH SEE ALSO
|
|
\fBcurses\fR(3X) and related pages whose names begin "form_" for detailed
|
|
descriptions of the entry points.
|
|
.SH NOTES
|
|
The header file \fB<form.h>\fR automatically includes the header file
|
|
\fB<curses.h>\fR.
|
|
.SH PORTABILITY
|
|
These routines emulate the System V forms library. They were not supported on
|
|
Version 7 or BSD versions.
