This is a log of changes that the ncurses C++ binding has gone
|
|
through starting with the integration of menu and forms integration
|
|
into the binding.
|
|
|
|
990731 + Improve support for pads. A viewport window may now be added to
|
|
a pad. It will then be possible to use a builtin panning mechanism
|
|
to view the pad.
|
|
|
|
970908 + Improve NCursesWindow class: added additional methods to
|
|
cover more ncurses functionality. Make refresh() and
|
|
noutrefresh() virtual members to allow different implementation
|
|
in the NCursesPanel class.
|
|
+ CAUTION: changed order of parameters in vline() and hline() of
|
|
NCursesWindow class.
|
|
+ Make refresh() in NCursesPanel non-static, it is now a
|
|
reimplementation of refresh() in the base class. Added
|
|
noutrefresh() to NCursesPanel.
|
|
+ Added NCursesForm and related classes to support libform
|
|
functionality.
|
|
+ Moved most of configuration related stuff from cursesw.h to
|
|
etip.h
|
|
+ Added NCursesApplication class to support easy configuration
|
|
of menu and forms related attributes as well as ripped of
|
|
title lines and Soft-Label-Keys for an application.
|
|
+ Support of Auto-Cleanup for a menus fieldlist.
|
|
+ Change of return type for current_item() and operator[] for
|
|
menus.
|
|
+ Enhanced demo.
|
|
970502
|
|
+ Introduced the THROW and THROWS functions/macros to prepare
|
|
a smoother transition to real exception handling.
|
|
+ Exception classes provided in etip.h
|
|
+ Added the NCursesMenu class to support libmenu functionality.
|
|
+ The inheritace relation between NCursesWindow and NCursesColorWindow
|
|
was kind of brain damage. Monochrome is a special case of colored, so
|
|
the relation should be just the opposite. This would allow all
|
|
derived classes like NCursesPanel, NCursesMenu or NCursesForm to
|
|
have colors.
|
|
To resolve that design flaw I put the color functionality into the
|
|
NCursesWindow class and it can be switched on by the static member
|
|
useColors(). NCursesColorWindow is still there for compatibility
|
|
reasons.
