MatchEditor(3I) 					    InterViews Reference Manual 					   MatchEditor(3I)

NAME

       MatchEditor - StringEditor with string completion

SYNOPSIS

       #include <InterViews/compeditor.h>

DESCRIPTION

       CompletionEditor  is a StringEditor subclass with the added ability to complete the current contents of the edit buffer against a specified
       set of strings.	A CompletionEditor is often useful when a user must specify a selection from a large set of well-known	strings--the  user
       need only type the first few characters of the string; he types the completion character to fill out the remainder.

       When  the user types the completion character, CompletionEditor checks the current string against the list of possible completions.  If the
       current string is a prefix of one or more completion strings, characters are appended so that the edit string contains the  longest  common
       prefix;	if  the current string does not match any completion string, trailing characters are removed until the string matches at least one
       completion.  In any case, if there is more than one possible completion of a string, CompletionEditor rings the workstation bell.

PUBLIC OPERATIONS

       CompletionEditor(ButtonState*, const char* sample, const char* done)
	      Create a new CompletionEditor object.  The ButtonState, sample string, and termination string are passed to  the	StringEditor  con-
	      structor.

       void Completions(const char* completions[], int count, char complete)
	      Specify the list of completion strings and the completion character.  The initial completion list is empty, and the completion char-
	      acter defaults to a space.  CompletionEditor does not copy the strings in the list.
