hline(3XCURSES) X/Open Curses Library Functions hline(3XCURSES)NAMEhline, mvhline, mvvline, mvwhline, mvwvline, vline, whline, wvline - use single-byte characters (and renditions) to draw linesSYNOPSIScc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include -L /usr/xpg4/lib -R /usr/xpg4/lib -lcurses [ library... ] c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ] #include <curses.h> int hline(chtype ch, int n); int mvhline(int y, int x, chtype ch, int n); int mvvline(int y, int x, chtype ch, int n); int mvwhline(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype ch, int n); int mvwvline(WINDOW *win, int y, int x, chtype ch, int n); int vline(chtype ch, int n); int whline(WINDOW *win, chtype ch, int n); int wvline(WINDOW *win, chtype ch, int n);DESCRIPTIONThe hline(), vline(), whline(), wvline() functions draw a horizontal or vertical line, in either the window stdscr or win starting at the current cursor position. The line is drawn using the character ch and is a maximum of n positions long, or as many as will fit into the window. If ch is 0 (zero), the default horizontal or vertical character is used. The mvhline(), mvvline(), mvwhline(), mvwvline() functions are similar to the previous group of functions but the line begins at cursor position specified by x and y. The functions with names ending with hline() draw horizontal lines proceeding towards the last column of the same line. The functions with names ending with vline() draw vertical lines proceeding towards the last column of the same line. These functions do not change the position of the cursor.PARAMETERSch Is the character used to draw the line. n Is the maximum number of characters in the line. y Is the y (row) coordinate for the start of the line. x Is the x (column) coordinate for the start of the line. win Is a pointer to a window.RETURN VALUESOn success, these functions return OK. Otherwise, they return ERR.ERRORSNoneATTRIBUTESSee attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Interface Stability |Standard | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |MT-Level |Unsafe | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+SEE ALSOborder(3XCURSES), border_set(3XCURSES), hline_set(3XCURSES), libcurses(3XCURSES), attributes(5), standards(5) SunOS 5.11 5 Jun 2002 hline(3XCURSES)
