_EdUndoOn( ) API Library Routine Example

The following example shows how to use _EdUndoOn( ) to group edit operations that you can undo as a group using _EdUndo( ).

Visual FoxPro Code

SET LIBRARY TO EDUNDOON
= EDUNDOON("x")  && edit file "x"

C Code

#include <pro_ext.h>
#define TRUE   1
#define FALSE   0

FAR Example(ParamBlk FAR *parm)
{
   char FAR *pFileName;
   WHANDLE wh;

   if (!_SetHandSize(parm->p[0].val.ev_handle, 
      parm->p[0].val.ev_length+1)) 
   {
      _Error(182); // "Insufficient memory"
   }
   _HLock(parm->p[0].val.ev_handle);
   pFileName = (char FAR *) _HandToPtr(parm->p[0].val.ev_handle);
   pFileName[parm->p[0].val.ev_length] = '\0';
   wh = _EdOpenFile(pFileName, FO_READWRITE);
   _HUnLock(parm->p[0].val.ev_handle);

   _EdUndoOn(wh, TRUE); // start undo group

   _EdSetPos(wh, _EdGetLinePos(wh, 13));
   _EdInsert(wh, "Hello, world\n", _StrLen("Hello, world\n"));
   _EdSelect(wh, _EdGetLinePos(wh, 14), _EdGetLinePos(wh, 16));
   _EdIndent(wh, 1);

   _EdUndoOn(wh, FALSE); // end undo group
   _EdUndoOn(wh, TRUE); // start another undo group

   _EdSelect(wh, _EdGetLinePos(wh, 9), _EdGetLinePos(wh, 12));
   _EdDelete(wh);
   _EdSetPos(wh, _EdGetLinePos(wh, 13));
   _EdInsert(wh, "Hello, world\n", _StrLen("Hello, world\n"));

   _Execute("WAIT WINDOW 'Press any key to undo changes.'");
   _EdUndoOn(wh, TRUE); // undoes to start of undo group
}

FoxInfo myFoxInfo[] = {
   {"EDUNDOON", (FPFI) Example, 1, "C"},
};
FoxTable _FoxTable = {
   (FoxTable FAR *) 0, sizeof(myFoxInfo)/sizeof(FoxInfo), myFoxInfo
};
