NAME
Curses::Widgets::Menu - Menu Widgets
MODULE VERSION
$Id: Menu.pm,v 1.103 2002/11/14 01:26:34 corliss Exp corliss $
SYNOPSIS
use Curses::Widgets::Menu;
$menu = Curses::Widgets::Menu->new({
COLUMNS => 10,
INPUTFUNC => &scankey,
FOREGROUND => undef,
BACKGROUND => 'black',
FOCUSSWITCH => " ",
X => 1,
Y => 1,
MENUS => {
MENUORDER => [qw(File)],
File => {
ITEMORDER => [qw(Save Quit)],
Save => &Save,
Quit => &Quit,
},
CURSORPOS => 'File',
BORDER => 1,
});
$menu->draw($mwh, 1);
$menu->execute;
See the Curses::Widgets pod for other methods.
REQUIREMENTS
Curses
Curses::Widgets
Curses::Widgets::ListBox
DESCRIPTION
Curses::Widgets::Menu provides simplified OO access to menus. Each item in a menu can be tied to a subroutine reference which is called
when selected.
METHODS
new (inherited from Curses::Widgets)
$menu = Curses::Widgets::Menu->new({
INPUTFUNC => &scankey,
FOREGROUND => undef,
BACKGROUND => 'black',
FOCUSSWITCH => " ",
MENUS => {
MENUORDER => [qw(File)],
File => {
ITEMORDER => [qw(Save Quit)],
Save => &Save,
Quit => &Quit,
},
CURSORPOS => 'File',
BORDER => 1,
});
The new method instantiates a new Menu object. The only mandatory key/value pairs in the configuration hash are X and Y. All others have
the following defaults:
Key Default Description
============================================================
INPUTFUNC &scankey Function to use to scan for keystrokes
FOREGROUND undef Default foreground colour
BACKGROUND 'black' Default background colour
FOCUSSWITCH " " Characters which signify end of input
MENUS {} Menu structure
CURSORPOS '' Current position of the cursor
BORDER 0 Avoid window borders
The MENUS option is a hash of hashes, with each hash a separate menu, and the constituent hashes being a Entry/Function pairs. Each hash
requires a special key/value pair that determines the order of the items when displayed. Each item is separated by two spaces.
draw
$menu->draw($mwh, 1);
The draw method renders the menu in its current state. This requires a valid handle to a curses window in which it will render itself.
The optional second argument, if true, will cause the selection cursor to be rendered as well.
popup
$menu->popup;
This method causes the menu to be displayed. Since, theoretically, the menu should never be seen unless it's being actively used, we will
always assume that we need to draw a cursor on the list as well.
execute
$menu->execute;
This method acts like the standard Curses::Widgets method of the same name, with the exception being that selection of any menu item will
also cause it to exit (having already called the associated item subroutine).
