NAME

form_field − make and break connections between fields and forms

SYNOPSIS

#include <form.h>

int set_form_fields(FORM *form, FIELD **fields);
FIELD **form_fields(const FORM *
form);
int field_count(const FORM *
form);
int move_field(FIELD *
field, int frow, int fcol);

DESCRIPTION

The function set_form_fields changes the field pointer array of the given form. The array must be terminated by a NULL.

The function form_fields returns the field array of the given form.

The function field_count returns the count of fields in form.

The function move_field moves the given field (which must be disconnected) to a specified location on the screen.

RETURN VALUE

The function form_fields returns a pointer (which may be NULL). It does not set errno.

The function field_count returns ERR if the form parameter is NULL.

The functions set_form_fields and move_field return one of the following codes on error:

E_OK

The routine succeeded.

E_BAD_ARGUMENT

Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.

E_CONNECTED

The field is already connected to a form.

E_POSTED

The form is already posted.

E_SYSTEM_ERROR

System error occurred (see errno(3)).

PORTABILITY

These routines emulate the System V forms library. They were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.

The SVr4 forms library documentation specifies the field_count error value as −1 (which is the value of ERR).
