It may take several calls to \fBRead\fP before the desired +portion of the text buffer is fully retrieved. +.NH 4 +Replacing Text. +.LP +To replace or edit the text in a text buffer use the \fBReplace\fP function: +.FD 0 +XawTextPosition Replace(\fIw\fP, \fIstart\fP, \fIend\fP, \fItext\fP) +.IN "TextSrc object" "Replace" @DEF@ +.br +Widget \fIw\fP; +.br +XawTextPosition \fIstart\fP, \fIend\fP; +.br +XawTextBlock \fI*text\fP; +.FN +.IP \fIw\fP 1i +Specifies the TextSrc object. +.IP \fIstart\fP 1i +Specifies the position of the first character to be removed from the text +buffer.

The characters from +\fIstart\fP up to but not including \fIend\fP are deleted, and the +buffer specified by the text block is inserted in their +place. If \fIstart\fP and \fIend\fP are equal, no text is deleted and +the new text is inserted after \fIstart\fP. +.NH 4 +Scanning the TextSrc +.LP +To search the text source for one of the predefined boundary types use +the \fBScan\fP function: +.FD 0 +XawTextPosition Scan(\fIw\fP, \fIposition\fP, \fItype\fP, \fIdir\fP, \fIcount\fP, \fIinclude\fP) +.IN "TextSrc object" "Scan" @DEF@ +.br +Widget \fIw\fP; +.br +XawTextPosition \fIposition\fP; +.br +XawTextScanType \fItype\fP; +.br +XawTextScanDirection \fIdir\fP; +.br +int \fIcount\fP; +.br +Boolean \fIinclude\fP; +.FN +.IP \fIw\fP 1i +Specifies the TextSrc object. +.IP \fIposition\fP 1i +Specifies the position to begin scanning the source. +.IP \fItype\fP 1i +Specifies the type of boundary to scan for, may be one of: +\fBXawstPosition\fP, \fBXawstWhiteSpace\fP, \fBXawstEOL\fP, +.IN "XawstPositions" "" +.IN "XawstWhiteSpace" "" +.IN "XawstEOL" "" +\fBXawstParagraph\fP, \fBXawstAll\fP. The exact meaning of these +.IN "XawstParagraph" "" +.IN "XawstAll" "" +boundaries is left up to the individual text source. +.IP \fIdir\fP 1i +Specifies the direction to scan, may be either \fBXawsdLeft\fP to search +.IN "XawsdLeft" "" +backward, or \fBXawsdRight\fP to search forward. +.IN "XawsdRight" "" +.IP \fIcount\fP 1i +Specifies the number of boundaries to scan for. +.IP \fIinclude\fP 1i +Specifies whether the boundary itself should be included in the scan. +.LP +The \fBScan\fP function returns the position in the text source of the desired +boundary. It is expected to return a valid address for +all calls made to it, thus if a particular request is made that would take +the text widget beyond the end of the source it must return the +position of that end. +.NH 4 +Searching through a TextSrc +.LP +To search for a particular string use the \fBSearch\fP function. +.FD 0 +XawTextPosition Search(\fIw\fP, \fIposition\fP, \fIdir\fP, \fItext\fP) +.IN "TextSrc object" "Search" @DEF@ +.br +Widget \fIw\fP; +.br +XawTextPosition \fIposition\fP; +.br +XawTextScanDirection \fIdir\fP; +.br +XawTextBlock \fI*text\fP; +.FN +.IP \fIw\fP 1i +Specifies the TextSrc object. +.IP \fIposition\fP 1i +Specifies the position to begin the search. +.IP \fIdir\fP 1i +Specifies the direction to search, may be either \fBXawsdLeft\fP to search +.IN "XawsdLeft" "" +backward, or \fBXawsdRight\fP to search forward. +.IN "XawsdRight" "" +.IP \fItext\fP 1i +Specifies a text block containing the text to search for. +.LP +This function will search through the text buffer attempting to find a +match for the string in the text block. If a match is found in the +direction specified, then the character location of the first character +in the string is returned. If no text was found then +\fBXawTextSearchError\fP is returned. +.IN "XawTextSearchError" "" +.NH 4 +Text Selections +.LP +While many selection types are handled by the Text widget, text sources +may have selection types unknown to the Text widget. When a selection +conversion is requested by the X server the Text widget will first call +the \fBConvertSelection\fP function, to attempt the selection +conversion. +.FD 0 +Boolean ConvertSelections(\fIw\fP, \fIselection\fP, \fItarget\fP, \fItype\fP, \fIvalue_return\fP, \fIlength_return\fP, \fIformat_return\fP) +.IN "Text widget" "ConvertSelection" @DEF@ +.br +Widget \fIw\fP; +.br +Atom \fI*selection\fP, \fI*target\fP, \fI*type\fP; +.br +caddr_t \fI*value_return\fP; +.br +unsigned long \fI*length_return\fP; +.br +int \fI*format_return\fP; +.FN +.IP \fIw\fP 1i +Specifies the TextSrc object. +.IP \fIselection\fP 1i +Specifies the type of selection that was requested (e.g. \fBPRIMARY\fP). +.IP \fItarget\fP 1i +Specifies the type of the selection that has been requested, which +indicates the desired information about the selection (e.g. Filename, +Text, Window). +.IP \fItype\fP 1i +Specifies a pointer to the atom into which the property type of the converted +value of the selection is to be stored. For instance, either file +name or text might have property type \fBXA_STRING\fP. +.IP \fIvalue_return\fP 1i +Returns a pointer into which a pointer to the converted value of the +selection +is to be stored. The selection owner is responsible for allocating +this storage. The memory is considered owned by the toolkit, and is +freed by XtFree when the Intrinsics selection mechanism is done with it. +.IP \fIlength_return\fP 1i +Returns a pointer into which the number of elements in value is to be stored. +The size of each element is determined by \fIformat\fP. +.IP \fIformat_return\fP 1i +Returns a pointer into which the size in bits of the data elements of the +selection value is to be stored. +.LP +If this function returns \fBTrue\fP then the Text widget will assume +that the source has taken care of converting the selection, Otherwise the +Text widget will attempt to convert the selection itself. +.LP +.sp +If the source needs to know when the text selection is modified it +should define a \fBSetSelection\fP procedure: +.FD 0 +void SetSelection(\fIw\fP, \fIstart\fP, \fIend\fP, \fIselection\fP) +Widget \fIw\fP; +.IN "SetSelection" "" @DEF@ +.br +XawTextPosition \fIstart\fP, \fIend\fP; +.br +Atom \fIselection\fP; +.FN +.IP \fIw\fP 1i +Specifies the TextSrc object. +.IP \fIstart\fP 1i +Specifies the character position of the beginning of the new text selection. +.IP \fIend\fP +Specifies the character position of the end of the new text selection. +.IP \fIselection\fP 1i +Specifies the type of selection that was requested (e.g. \fBPRIMARY\fP). -- cgit v1.2.3
