-<H2>NAME</H2><PRE>
- <STRONG>menu_driver</STRONG> - command-processing loop of the menu system
-
-
-</PRE>
-<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>
- <STRONG>#include</STRONG> <STRONG>&lt;menu.h&gt;</STRONG>
- int menu_driver(MENU *menu, int c);
-
-
-</PRE>
-<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
- Once a menu has been posted (displayed), you should funnel
- input events to it through <STRONG>menu_driver</STRONG>. This routine has
- three major input cases:
-
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> The input is a form navigation request. Navigation
- request codes are constants defined in <STRONG>&lt;form.h&gt;</STRONG>, which
- are distinct from the key- and character codes
- returned by <STRONG>wgetch</STRONG>.
-
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> The input is a printable character. Printable charac-
- ters (which must be positive, less than 256) are
- checked according to the program's locale settings.
-
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> The input is the KEY_MOUSE special key associated with
- an mouse event.
-
- The menu driver requests are as follows:
-
- REQ_LEFT_ITEM
- Move left to an item.
-
- REQ_RIGHT_ITEM
- Move right to an item.
-
- REQ_UP_ITEM
- Move up to an item.
-
- REQ_DOWN_ITEM
- Move down to an item.
-
- REQ_SCR_ULINE
- Scroll up a line.
-
- REQ_SCR_DLINE
- Scroll down a line.
-
- REQ_SCR_DPAGE
- Scroll down a page.
-
- REQ_SCR_UPAGE
- Scroll up a page.
-
- REQ_FIRST_ITEM
- Move to the first item.
-
- REQ_LAST_ITEM
- Move to the last item.
-
- REQ_NEXT_ITEM
- Move to the next item.
-
- REQ_PREV_ITEM
- Move to the previous item.
-
- REQ_TOGGLE_ITEM
- Select/deselect an item.
-
- REQ_CLEAR_PATTERN
- Clear the menu pattern buffer.
-
- REQ_BACK_PATTERN
- Delete the previous character from the pattern
- buffer.
-
- REQ_NEXT_MATCH
- Move to the next item matching the pattern match.
-
- REQ_PREV_MATCH
- Move to the previous item matching the pattern match.
-
- If the second argument is a printable character, the code
- appends it to the pattern buffer and attempts to move to
- the next item matching the new pattern. If there is no
- such match, <STRONG>menu_driver</STRONG> returns <STRONG>E_NO_MATCH</STRONG> and deletes the
- appended character from the buffer.
-
- If the second argument is one of the above pre-defined
- requests, the corresponding action is performed.
-
- <STRONG>MOUSE</STRONG> <STRONG>HANDLING</STRONG>
- If the second argument is the KEY_MOUSE special key, the
- associated mouse event is translated into one of the above
- pre-defined requests. Currently only clicks in the user
- window (e.g., inside the menu display area or the decora-
- tion window) are handled.
-
- If you click above the display region of the menu:
-
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> a REQ_SCR_ULINE is generated for a single click,
-
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> a REQ_SCR_UPAGE is generated for a double-click and
-
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> a REQ_FIRST_ITEM is generated for a triple-click.
-
- If you click below the display region of the menu:
-
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> a REQ_SCR_DLINE is generated for a single click,
-
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> a REQ_SCR_DPAGE is generated for a double-click and
-
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> a REQ_LAST_ITEM is generated for a triple-click.
-
- If you click at an item inside the display area of the
- menu:
-
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> the menu cursor is positioned to that item.
-
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> If you double-click an item a REQ_TOGGLE_ITEM is gen-
- erated and <STRONG>E_UNKNOWN_COMMAND</STRONG> is returned. This return
- value makes sense, because a double click usually
- means that an item-specific action should be returned.
- It is exactly the purpose of this return value to sig-
- nal that an application specific command should be
- executed.
-
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> If a translation into a request was done, <STRONG>menu_driver</STRONG>
- returns the result of this request.
-
- If you clicked outside the user window or the mouse event
- could not be translated into a menu request an
- <STRONG>E_REQUEST_DENIED</STRONG> is returned.
-
- <STRONG>APPLICATION-DEFINED</STRONG> <STRONG>COMMANDS</STRONG>
- If the second argument is neither printable nor one of the
- above pre-defined menu requests or KEY_MOUSE, the drive
- assumes it is an application-specific command and returns
- <STRONG>E_UNKNOWN_COMMAND</STRONG>. Application-defined commands should be
- defined relative to <STRONG>MAX_COMMAND</STRONG>, the maximum value of
- these pre-defined requests.
-
-
-</PRE>
-<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
- <STRONG>menu_driver</STRONG> return one of the following error codes:
-
- <STRONG>E_OK</STRONG> The routine succeeded.
-
- <STRONG>E_SYSTEM_ERROR</STRONG>
- System error occurred (see <STRONG>errno</STRONG>).
-
- <STRONG>E_BAD_ARGUMENT</STRONG>
- Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argu-
- ment.
-
- <STRONG>E_BAD_STATE</STRONG>
- Routine was called from an initialization or termina-
- tion function.
-
- <STRONG>E_NOT_POSTED</STRONG>
- The menu has not been posted.
-
- <STRONG>E_UNKNOWN_COMMAND</STRONG>
- The menu driver code saw an unknown request code.
-
- <STRONG>E_NO_MATCH</STRONG>
- Character failed to match.
-
- <STRONG>E_REQUEST_DENIED</STRONG>
- The menu driver could not process the request.
