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 move the given field (which must be disconnected) to a specified location on the screen.
RETURN VALUES
The function form_fields returns NULL on error. The function field_count returns ERR (the general curses error return value) on error. The functions set_form_fields and move_field return one of the following codes on error: E_OK The routine succeeded. E_SYSTEM_ERROR System error occurred (see errno). E_BAD_ARGUMENT Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument. E_POSTED The form is already posted. E_CONNECTED The field is already connected to a form.
SEE ALSO
curses(3X), form(3X).
NOTES
The header file <form.h> automatically includes the header file <curses.h>.
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).
