ISD=977155185403901+DIE CAST+DIE CAST
055555+01087+001008+SPR 08+08+004+Y'

prima::editdialog
Prima::EditDialog(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Prima::EditDialog(3)
NAME
Prima::FindDialog, Prima::ReplaceDialog - standard interface dialogs to find and replace options selection.
SYNOPSIS
use Prima::StdDlg;
my $dlg = Prima::FindDialog-> create( findStyle => 0);
my $res = $dlg-> execute;
if ( $res == mb::Ok) {
print $dlg-> findText, " is to be found
";
} elsif ( $res == mb::ChangeAll) {
print "all occurences of ", $dlg-> findText,
" is to be replaced by ", $dlg-> replaceText;
}
The "mb::ChangeAll" constant, one of possible results of "execute" method, is defined in Prima::StdDlg module. Therefore it is recommended
to include this module instead.
DESCRIPTION
The module provides two classes - Prima::FindDialog and Prima::ReplaceDialog; Prima::ReplaceDialog is exactly same as Prima::FindDialog
except that its default findStyle property value is set to 0. One can use a dialog-caching technique, arbitrating between findStyle value 0
and 1, and use only one instance of Prima::FindDialog.
The module does not provide the actual search algorithm; this must be implemented by the programmer. The toolkit currently include some
facilitation to the problem - the part of algorithm for "Prima::Edit" class is found in "find" in Prima::Edit, and the another part - in
examples/editor.pl example program. Prima::HelpWindow also uses the module, and realizes its own searching algorithm.
API
