IO_Edit

November 8, 2009

Updated everything onto the repository. Now I'm trying to code

IO Edit PseudoCode:

Create an array of 'maxdatalen + 1 chars' and set IO_Field::_data to point to it

Constructor:

+ "row", "col", and "frameChars" pass directly to the Frames class "top" "left" and "framechars". pass width of (fieldlen + 2) and height of (fieldlen + 3)
+ pass to IO_Field constructor. if framed false: row and col. if framed true: row+1 and col+1

Destructor:

+ if object is marked to be dynamic (it should unless i did the 2nd type of constructor) delete[] character content of data in IO_Field

Display():

+ if IO_Edit is framed call IO_Frame display(). Use: _owner->getTop(), _owner->getLeft() as topOffset and leftOffset arguments.
+ call ciol's io_display() function passing getRow() and getCol() and fieldlen from IO_Field and IO_Edit, respectively

Edit():

+ call ciol's io_edit with corresponding data from IO_Edits attributes
+ ignore Owner argument
+ return value returned by ciol's io_edit

Editable():

+return true;

Set():

+copy incoming str into _data (in IO_Field) up to 'maxdatalen' characters (note: if using strncpy() make sure string is null terminated)
