|
|
|
|
|
<p> After we have replaced the standard dialogs, we move onto the custom
|
|
|
|
|
dialogs. This project has a single custom dialog: the <em>Page Edit</em>
|
|
|
|
|
dialog.
|
|
|
|
|
<p> Instead of writing the code ourselves, we use <a href="designer-manual.html">TQt Designer</a> to design our dialog.
|
|
|
|
|
Designing a custom dialog is beyond the scope of
|
|
|
|
|
this document: see the <a href="designer-manual.html">TQt Designer Manual</a> if you're unfamiliar
|
|
|
|
|
with TQt's visual design tool.
|
|
|
|
|
<p> <h2> Replacing the <em>Page Edit</em> Dialog
|
|
|
|
|
</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
<a name="1"></a><p> The custom <a href="ntqdialog.html">TQDialog</a> description for the <em>Page Edit</em> dialog is saved
|
|
|
|
|
as <tt>pageeditdialog.ui</tt>. We add this file to the project file by
|
|
|
|
|
adding the line
|
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
|
|
|
FORMS = pageeditdialog.ui
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to the <tt>.pro</tt> file, and regenerate the <tt>Makefile</tt>. The <em>uic</em>
|
|
|
|
|
utility generates the code for our custom TQDialog, which is then
|
|
|
|
|
compiled and linked into our application. (<em>uic</em> is invoked
|
|
|
|
|
automatically from makefiles generated from <tt>.pro</tt> files.)
|
|
|
|
|
<p> We need to pass the top-level <a href="qmotifwidget.html">TQMotifWidget</a> as the <em>client_data</em>
|
|
|
|
|
argument to the <tt>EditPage</tt> function, which we will use as the parent
|
|
|
|
|
for our new <tt>PageEditDialog</tt>. We do this the same way as we have
|
|
|
|
|
done for the <em>Open</em> and <em>Save As</em> dialogs in <tt>todo.cpp</tt>.
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p> <pre></pre>
|
|
|
|
|
<p> The <tt>EditPage()</tt> function is implemented in <tt>actions.cpp</tt>. We start
|
|
|
|
|
by adding the includes needed for the <tt>PageEditDialog</tt> and <a href="ntqlineedit.html">TQLineEdit</a>.
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p> <pre></pre>
|
|
|
|
|
<p> In the <tt>EditPage()</tt> function, We create the <tt>PageEditDialog</tt>, set
|
|
|
|
|
the initial values of the three TQLineEdit widgets with values from the
|
|
|
|
|
current page and execute the dialog.
|
|
|
|
|
<p> <pre></pre><pre>
|
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p> At this point in the code, the page properties should be modified. The
|
|
|
|
|
code to do this is in the <tt>DoEditPage()</tt> function. We move the
|
|
|
|
|
contents of <tt>DoEditPage()</tt> to this point and remove the <tt>DoEditPage()</tt> function completely.
|
|
|
|
|
<p> The <tt>Page</tt> struct defined in <tt>page.h</tt> stores strings in <tt>char*</tt>
|
|
|
|
|
arrays. Since the PageEditDialog and the data it contains will be
|
|
|
|
|
destroyed when we return from this function, we need to convert the
|
|
|
|
|
unicode <a href="ntqstring.html">TQString</a> data into a <a href="ntqcstring.html">TQCString</a> in the local encoding and
|
|
|
|
|
duplicate it with <a href="ntqcstring.html#qstrdup">tqstrdup</a>().
|
|
|
|
|
<p> <pre></pre>
|
|
|
|
|
<p> The same process must be done for the minorTab text:
|
|
|
|
|
<p> <pre></pre>
|
|
|
|
|
<p> ... and for the majorTab text:
|
|
|
|
|
<p> <pre></pre>
