The following are functions which create or manipulate the Cdk matrix box widget. .SH AVAILABLE FUNCTIONS CDKMATRIX *newCDKMatrix (CDKSCREEN *\f2screen\f1, int \f2xpos\f1, int \f2ypos\f1, int \f2screenRows\f1, int \f2screenCols\f1, int \f2actualRows\f1, int \f2actualCols\f1, char *\f2title\f1, char **\f2rowTitles\f1, char **\f2colTitles\f1, int *\f2colWidths\f1, int *\f2colTypes\f1, int \f2rowSpace\f1, int \f2colSpace\f1, chtype \f2filler\f1, int \f2dominantAttribute\f2, boolean \f2boxMatrix\f1, boolean \f2boxCell\f1, boolean \f2shadow\f1); .RS 3 This function creates a pointer to a matrix widget. The \f2screen\f1 parameter is the screen you wish this widget to be placed in. The parameter \f2xpos\f1 controls the placement of the object along the horizontal axis. This parameter can accept an integer value or one of the pre-defined values of \f4LEFT\f1, \f4RIGHT\f1, and \f4CENTER\f1. The parameter \f2ypos\f1 controls the placement of the object along the vertical axis. This parameter can accept an integer value or one of the pre-defined values of \f4TOP\f1, \f4BOTTOM\f1, and \f4CENTER\f1. The parameters \f2screenRows\f1 and \f2screenCols\f1 are the number of rows and columns to be displayed on the screen respectively; where \f2actualRows\f1 and \f2actualCols\f1 are the number of actual rows and columns the matrix has. The \f2title\f1 parameter is the string which will be displayed at the top of the widget. The title can be more than one line; just provide a carriage return character at the line break. The two parameters \f2rowTitles\f1 and \f2colTitles\f1 are the titles along the row and columns respectively. The parameter \f2columnWidths\f1 is an array of integers stating how wide the individual columns are to be. The parameter \f2columnTypes\f1 is an array of \f4int\f1 which correspond to the individual column display types. The values of the array should be assigned a value of type \f4EDisplayType\f1. (it is only declared an \f4int\f1 out of convenience) The following table outlines valid values for this field and what the result is. .RS 3 .nf \f2Display_Type Result\f1 vCHAR Only accepts alphabetic characters. vLCHAR Only accepts alphabetic characters. Maps the character to lower case when a character has been accepted. vUCHAR Only accepts alphabetic characters. Maps the character to upper case when a character has been accepted. vHCHAR Only accepts alphabetic characters. Displays a \f4.\f1 when a character has been accepted. vUHCHAR Only accepts alphabetic characters. Displays a \f4.\f1 and maps the character to upper case when a character has been accepted. vLHCHAR Only accepts alphabetic characters. Displays a \f4.\f1 and maps the character to lower case when a character has been accepted. vINT Only accepts numeric characters. vHINT Only accepts numeric characters. Displays a \f4.\f1 when a character has been accepted. vMIXED Accepts any character types. vLMIXED Accepts any character types. Maps the character to lower case when an alphabetic character has been accepted. vUMIXED Accepts any character types. Maps the character to upper case when an alphabetic character has been accepted. vHMIXED Accepts any character types. Displays a \f4.\f1 when a character has been accepted. vLHMIXED Accepts any character types. Displays a \f4.\f1 and maps the charac}er to lower case when a character has been accepted. vUHMIXED Accepts any character types. Displays a \f4.\f1 and maps the character to upper case when a character has been accepted. vVIEWONLY Uneditable field. .fi .RE The parameters \f2rowSpace\f1 and \f2colSpace\f1 dictate how much white space is to be between rows and columns respectively. The \f2filler\f1 option is the character to use in empty space within a cell. The parameter \f2dominantAttribute\f1 states which between the two, the rows or the columns, will have the dominant character attributes. This is stated when a cell has both a row attribute and a column attribute. If the value of the parameter \f2dominantAttribute\f1 is set to \f2ROW\f1 then the attribute of the row will be displayed. If it is set to \f2COL\f1 then the column's attributes will be displayed instead. The \f2boxMatrix\f1 parameter states whether the widget will be drawn with a box around it or not. The \f2boxCell\f1 parameter states whether or not the individual cells will have boxes drawn around them. The \f2shadow\f1 parameter accepts a boolean value to turn the shadow on or off around this widget. If the widget could not be created then a \f4NULL\f1 pointer is returned. .RE int activateCDKMatrix (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, chtype *\f2actions\f1); .RS 3 This function activates the matrix widget and lets the user interact with the widget. The parameter \f2matrix\f1 is a pointer to a non-NULL matrix widget. If the \f2actions\f1 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 \f4NULL\f1 pointer for \f2actions\f1. If the character entered into this widget is \f4RETURN\f1 then this function will return 1. It will also set the structure member \f4exitType\f1 to \f4vNORMAL\f1. If the character entered into this widget was \f4ESCAPE\f1 then the widget will return a value of -1 and the structure member \f4exitType\f1 will be set to \f4vESCAPE_HIT\f1. The matrix cell contents can be retrieved by using the \f2info\f1 array of the matrix widget. .RE int injectCDKMatrix (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, chtype \f2character\f1); .RS 3 This function injects a single character into the widget. The parameter \f2matrix\f1 is a pointer to a non-NULL matrix widget. The parameter \f2character\f1 is the character to inject into the widget. If the character injected into this widget was \f4RETURN\f1 then this function will return 1. It will also set the structure member \f4exitType\f1 to \f4vNORMAL\f1. If the character entered into this widget was \f4ESCAPE\f1 then the widget will return a value of -1 and the structure member \f4exitType\f1 will be set to \f4vESCAPE_HIT\f1. Any other character injected into the widget will set the structure member \f4exitType\f1 to \f4vEARLY_EXIT\f1 and the function will return -1. The matrix cell contents can be retrieved by using the \f2info\f1 array of the matrix widget. .RE void setCDKMatrix (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, char **\f2info\f1, int \f2rows\f1, int *\f2columnLengths\f1); .RS 3 This function lets the programmer modify certain elements of an already defined matrix widget. The parameter \f2info\f1 is an array of \f4char *\f1 which contains the cell information. The parameter \f2rows\f1 has the number of rows the parameter \f2info\f1 contains, while \f2columnLengths\f1 has the lengths of the individual columns in \f2info\f1. .RE void setCDKMatrixCell (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, int \f2row\f1, int \f2col\f1, char *\f2value\f1); .RS 3 This sets the contents of the cell located by the \f2row\f1 and \f2col\f1 pair. The value of the cell will be set to \f2value\f1. .RE char *getCDKMatrixCell (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, int \f2row\f1, int \f2col\f1); .RS 3 This returns the contents of the cell located by the \f2row\f1 and \f2col\f1 pair. .RE void setCDKMatrixCB (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, MATRIXCB \f2callbackFunction\f1); .RS 3 This function allows the programmer to set a different widget input handler. The parameter \f2callbackFunction\f1 is of type \f4MATRIXCB\f1. The current default function is \f4CDKMatrixCallBack\f1. .RE void setCDKMatrixULChar (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, chtype \f2character\f1); .RS 3 This function sets the upper left hand corner of the widgets box to the given character. .RE void setCDKMatrixURChar (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, chtype \f2character\f1); .RS 3 This function sets the upper right hand corner of the widgets box to the given character. .RE void setCDKMatrixLLChar (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, chtype \f2character\f1); .RS 3 This function sets the lower left hand corner of the widgets box to the given character. .RE void setCDKMatrixLRChar (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, chtype \f2character\f1); .RS 3 This function sets the lower right hand corner of the widgets box to the given character. .RE void setCDKMatrixVerticalChar (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, chtype \f2character\f1); .RS 3 This function sets the vertical drawing character for the box to the given character. .RE void setCDKMatrixHorizontalChar (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, chtype \f2character\f1); .RS 3 This function sets the horizontal drawing character for the box to the given character. .RE void setCDKMatrixBoxAttribute (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, chtype \f2attribute\f1); .RS 3 This function sets the attribute of the box. .RE void setCDKMatrixBackgroundColor (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, char *\f2color\f1); .RS 3 This sets the background color of the widget. The parameter \f2color\f1 is in the format of the Cdk format strings. To get more information look at the \f4cdk_display\f1 manual page. .RE void moveCDKMatrix (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, int \f2xpos\f1, int \f2ypos\f1, boolean \f2relative\f1, boolean \f2refresh\f1); .RS 3 This function moves the given widget to the given position. The parameters \f2xpos\f1 and \f2ypos\f1 is the new position of the widget. The parameter \f2xpos\f1 can accept an integer value or one of the pre-defined values of \f4TOP\f1, \f4BOTTOM\f1, and \f4CENTER\f1. The parameter \f2ypos\f1 can accept an integer value or one of the pre-defined values of \f4LEFT\f1, \f4RIGHT\f1, and \f4CENTER\f1. The parameter \f2relative\f1 states whether the \f2xpos\f1/\f2ypos\f1 pair is a relative move or an absolute move. For example if \f2xpos\f1 = 1 and \f2ypos\f1 = 2 and \f2relative\f1 = \f2TRUE\f1, then the widget would move one row down and two columns right. If the value of \f2relative\f1 was \f2FALSE\f1 then the widget would move to the position (1,2). Do not use the values of \f4TOP\f1, \f4BOTTOM\f1, \f4LEFT\f1, \f4RIGHT\f1, or \f4CENTER\f1 when \f2relative\f1 = \f4TRUE\f1. (weird things may happen). The final parameter \f2refresh\f1 is a boolean value which states whether the widget will get refreshed after the move or not. .RE void positionCDKMatrix (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1); .RS 3 This function allows the user to move the widget around the screen via the cursor/keypad keys. The following key bindings can be used to move the widget around the screen. .LP .nf \f4Key Bindings\f1 .RS 3 \f2Key Action\f1 Up Arrow Moves the widget up one line.

(The numeric keys at the top of the keyboard will work as well.) .LP void drawCDKMatrix (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, boolean \f2box\f1); .RS 3 This function draws the matrix widget on the screen. The \f2box\f1 option draws the widget with or without a box. .RE void eraseCDKMatrix (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1); .RS 3 This function removes the widget from the screen. This does \f4NOT\f1 destroy the widget. .RE void cleanCDKMatrix (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1); .RS 3 This function clears the information from the field. .RE int moveToCDKMatrixCell (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, int \f2row\f1, int \f2col\f1); .RS 3 This function jumps to the given cells dictated by the parameters \f2row\f1 and \f2col\f1. It returns a value of \f4TRUE\f1 or \f4FALSE\f1 depending if the move was successful or not. .RE int jumpToCell (CDKMATRIX *\f1matrix\f1); .RS 3 This function provides an interactive method of moving to a cell. It pops up a scale widget and asks which cell the user wants to go to. Then it performs the jump. .RE void destroyCDKMatrix (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1); .RS 3 This function removes the widget from the screen and frees up any memory the object may be using. .RE void setCDKMatrixPreProcess (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, PROCESSFN \f2function\f1, void *\f2data\f1); .RS 3 This function 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 \f2function\f1 if of type \f4PROCESSFN\f1. The parameter \f2data\f1 is a pointer to \f4void\f1. To learn more about pre-processing read the \f4cdk_process\f1 manual page. .RE void setCDKMatrixPostProcess (CDKMATRIX *\f2matrix\f1, PROCESSFN \f2function\f1, void *\f2data\f1); .RS 3 This function allows the user to have the widget call a function after the key has been applied to the widget. The parameter \f2function\f1 if of type \f4PROCESSFN\f1. The parameter \f2data\f1 is a pointer to \f4void\f1.
