TCBrowse: clicking on headers

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

In the following sample nothing happens when the headers are clicked. Why? How can I trap this event?

Code: Select all  Expand view

#include "Fivewin.ch"
#include "Tcbrowse.ch"


FUNCTION MAIN()

    LOCAL oDlg, oBrw, oCol

    USE TEST

    DEFINE DIALOG oDlg SIZE 300, 300

    @ 0, 0 BROWSE oBrw

    ADD COLUMN TO oBrw;
               DATA TEST -> last;
               HEADER "LAST";
               COLOR CLR_RED, CLR_GREEN

    ADD COLUMN TO oBrw;
               DATA TEST -> first;
               HEADER "FIRST";
               COLOR CLR_RED, CLR_GREEN

    oBrw:lCellStyle = .T.

    oBrw:aActions = { { || MsgInfo( "Hello!" ) }, { || MsgInfo( "Hello!" ) } }

    ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg;
             ON INIT oDlg:SetControl( oBrw );
             CENTER

    CLOSE

    RETURN NIL

As I expect you know, TCBrowse is a subclass of TWBrowse. aAction is eval'd in method lButtonDown in TWBrowse. In TCBrowse, the method has been completely rewritten and aAction is not used anywhere in the method. So, it looks like it will require a significant rewrite of this method to get actions working.

You might consider using TSBrowse instead. I does everything TCBrowse does and a lot more including header actions. You can get a copy at my website.

Thank you but I would prefer to not use TSBrowse. Anyway, are you saying that TCBrowse doesn't offer header clicking actions? It would be weird as when the pointer moves over headers it becomes the hand icon and there would be no reason for this.

A partial fix could be (TCBrowse:LButtonDown() method):

Code: Select all  Expand view

   if ::nLen < 1
      return nil
   endif
//EMG
   if nClickRow == 0 .and. Valtype(nKeyFlags) == "N"
      if ::aActions != nil .and. ;
         ( nAtCol := ::nAtCol( nColPix ) ) <= Len( ::aActions )
            if ::aActions[ nAtCol ] != nil
               Eval( ::aActions[ nAtCol ], Self, nRowPix, nColPix )
            else
               MsgBeep()
            endif
      else
         MsgBeep()
      endif
   endif
//EMG
   if nClickRow > 0 .and. nClickRow != ::nRowPos .and. ;

and comment out

Code: Select all  Expand view

//   Super:LButtonDown( nRowPix, nColPix, nKeyFlags )

return 0

Enrico,

I have implemented a quick fix this way:

Code: Select all  Expand view

METHOD LButtonUp( nRowPix, nColPix, nFlags ) CLASS TCBrowse

   local nClickRow, nDestCol, nAtCol

   if ::lDrag
     if ::lColDrag
        ::lDrag := .f.
     else
        return Super:LButtonUp( nRowPix, nColPix, nFlags )
     endif
   endif

   if ::lCaptured
      ::lCaptured = .f.
      ReleaseCapture()
      if ::lLineDrag
        ::lLineDrag := .f.
        ::VertLine()
      else
        ::lColDrag := .f.
        nClickRow = nTCWRow( ::hWnd, ::hDC, nRowPix,;
                      If( ::oFont != nil, ::oFont:hFont, 0 ) )

        nDestCol := ::nAtCol(nColPix)
        // we gotta be on header row within listbox and not same colm
        if nClickRow == 0 .and. nColPix > ::nLeft .and. ;
           nColPix < ::nRight - 16 .and. ::nDragCol != nDestCol
             ::Exchange( ::nDragCol, nDestCol)
        else
          if ::aActions != nil .and. ;
             ( nAtCol := ::nAtCol( nColPix ) ) <= Len( ::aActions )
             if ::aActions[ nAtCol ] != nil
                Eval( ::aActions[ nAtCol ], Self, nRowPix, nColPix )
             endif
          endif
        endif
      endif
   endif

   Super:LButtonUp( nRowPix, nColPix, nFlags )

return nil

Headers clicking still doesn't work on the February build.

Enrico,

Please try fwh\samples\enrico.prg

Its working fine

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

Enrico,

Please try fwh\samples\enrico.prg

Its working fine

Ok, but try this enrico2.prg:

Code: Select all  Expand view

#include "Fivewin.ch"
#include "Tcbrowse.ch"


FUNCTION MAIN()

    LOCAL oDlg, oBrw, oCol

    USE Customer ALIAS Test

    DEFINE DIALOG oDlg SIZE 300, 300

    @ 0, 0 BROWSE oBrw

    ADD COLUMN TO oBrw;
               DATA TEST -> last;
               HEADER "LAST";
               COLOR CLR_RED, CLR_GREEN

    ADD COLUMN TO oBrw;
               DATA TEST -> first;
               HEADER "FIRST";
               COLOR CLR_RED, CLR_GREEN

    oBrw:lCellStyle = .T.
    oBrw:lMChange = .F.

    oBrw:aActions = { { || MsgInfo( "One!" ) }, { || MsgInfo( "Two!" ) } }

    ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg;
             ON INIT oDlg:SetControl( oBrw );
             CENTER ;
             VALID MsgYesNo( "Want to exit ?" )

    CLOSE

    RETURN NIL

Enrico,

This line is causing the problem:

oBrw:lMChange = .f.

but here you have a modified Class TCBrowse that works ok with your sample: http://hyperupload.com/download/a4efe52 ... e.prg.html

Thank you.
