You supply it with \fIfield_check\fR, a predicate to check the -validity of an entered data string whenever the user attempts to leave a field. -The (FIELD *) argument is passed in so the validation predicate can see the -field's buffer, sizes and other attributes; the second argument is an -argument-block structure, about which more below. - -You also supply \fBnew_fieldtype\fR with \fIchar_check\fR, -a function to validate input characters as they are entered; it will be passed -the character to be checked and a pointer to an argument-block structure. - -The function \fBfree_fieldtype\fR frees the space allocated for a given -validation type. - -The function \fBset_fieldtype_arg\fR associates three storage-management functions -with a field type. -The \fImake_arg\fR function is automatically applied to the -list of arguments you give \fBset_field_type\fR when attaching validation -to a field; its job is to bundle these into an allocated argument-block -object which can later be passed to validation predicated. -The other two hook arguments should copy and free argument-block structures. -They will be used by the forms-driver code. -You must supply the \fImake_arg\fR function, -the other two are optional, you may supply NULL for them. -In this case it is assumed -that \fImake_arg\fR does not allocate memory but simply loads the -argument into a single scalar value. - -The function \fBlink_fieldtype\fR creates -a new field type from the two given types. -They are connected by an logical 'OR'. - -The form driver requests \fBREQ_NEXT_CHOICE\fR and \fBREQ_PREV_CHOICE\fR assume -that the possible values of a field form an ordered set, and provide the forms -user with a way to move through the set. -The \fBset_fieldtype_choice\fR -function allows forms programmers to define successor and predecessor functions -for the field type. -These functions take the field pointer and an -argument-block structure as arguments. -.SH RETURN VALUE -The pointer-valued routines return NULL on error. - -The integer-valued routines return one of the following codes on -error: -.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. -.TP 5 -\fBE_CONNECTED\fR -The field is already connected to a form. -.SH SEE ALSO -\fBcurses\fR(3X), \fBform\fR(3X). -.SH NOTES -The header file \fB<form.h>\fR automatically includes the header file -\fB<curses.h>\fR. - -All of the \fB(char *)\fR arguments of these functions should actually be -\fB(void *)\fR. The type has been left uncorrected for strict compatibility -with System V. -.SH PORTABILITY -These routines emulate the System V forms library. They were not supported on -Version 7 or BSD versions. -.SH AUTHORS -Juergen Pfeifer. Manual pages and adaptation for new curses by Eric -S.
