class MCoeFepAwareTextEditor |
Specifies a protocol for FEP-aware text editors.
TCoeInputCapabilities::FepAwareTextEditor() returns a pointer to an object of this class. A NULL return value indicates that the interface is not supported by any of the currently focused controls.
Inline editing means composing text directly in the target text editor control rather than in the FEP's edit window first. The target text editor must implement the MCoeFepAwareTextEditor interface in order to support inline text. The inline text may be differentiated from the surrounding text by the use of different formatting. These differences are removed when the inline text transaction is committed (causing the inline text to become a real part of the document). Cancelling the inline text transaction deletes the inline text and restores any previously selected text. A benefit of inline editing is that the user only has to concentrate on one area of the screen rather than two.
An inline editing transaction consists of the following sequence of function calls:
a call to StartFepInlineEditL()
zero, one or more calls to UpdateFepInlineTextL()
a call to either CommitFepInlineEditL() or CancelFepInlineEdit()

void | CancelFepInlineEdit | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Cancels the inline editing transaction.
The edit window should be rolled back to the state it was in before the FEP transaction started, i.e. any inline text in the document which has not yet been committed should be removed. If the inline text has replaced existing text, (e.g. a selection) the replaced text should be reinstated.
IMPORT_C void | CommitFepInlineEditL | ( | CCoeEnv & | aConeEnvironment | ) |
CCoeEnv & aConeEnvironment |
void | DoCommitFepInlineEditL | ( | ) | [private, pure virtual] |
Private function called by CommitFepInlineEditL().
Implementations should commit the inline text to the document. This ends the inline editing transaction and causes the inline text to become a part of the document.
TInt | DocumentLengthForFep | ( | ) | const [pure virtual] |
Returns the total number of characters in the text editor.
The total number of characters in the text editor.
TInt | DocumentMaximumLengthForFep | ( | ) | const [pure virtual] |
Returns the upper limit (if any) on the length of text that the text editor can hold.
The maximum number of characters that the text editor can hold.
IMPORT_C MCoeFepAwareTextEditor_Extension1 * | Extension1 | ( | TBool & | aSetToTrue | ) | [private, virtual] |
TBool & aSetToTrue |
void | GetCursorSelectionForFep | ( | TCursorSelection & | aCursorSelection | ) | const [pure virtual] |
Gets the range of characters in the text editor which are selected.
TCursorSelection & aCursorSelection | On return, contains the cursor and anchor positions of the selection. |
void | GetEditorContentForFep | ( | TDes & | aEditorContent, |
TInt | aDocumentPosition, | |||
TInt | aLengthToRetrieve | |||
) | const [pure virtual] |
Copies a portion of the text editor's text content into a descriptor.
void | GetFormatForFep | ( | TCharFormat & | aFormat, |
TInt | aDocumentPosition | |||
) | const [pure virtual] |
Gets the character formatting which applies to the document position specified.
This function allows FEPs to find out the ambient formatting so that the FEP can choose a format for the inline text that will clearly differentiate it from the surrounding text.
TCharFormat & aFormat | On return, contains the character formatting which applies to the character at aDocumentPosition. |
TInt aDocumentPosition | The document position of interest. |
void | GetScreenCoordinatesForFepL | ( | TPoint & | aLeftSideOfBaseLine, |
TInt & | aHeight, | |||
TInt & | aAscent, | |||
TInt | aDocumentPosition | |||
) | const [pure virtual] |
Gets the x,y screen coordinates for the left hand side of the baseline of the character located at a specified document position.
Also gets the height (ascent + descent) and ascent of the font of the character. This function could be used to position the FEP window as close as possible to the insertion point in the text editor.
TPoint & aLeftSideOfBaseLine | On return, contains the x,y coordinates of the left side of the baseline of the character located at aDocumentPosition. |
TInt & aHeight | On return, contains the height (ascent + descent) of the font of the character at aDocumentPosition. |
TInt & aAscent | On return, contains the ascent of the font of the character at aDocumentPosition. |
TInt aDocumentPosition | The document position of interest. |
IMPORT_C void | MCoeFepAwareTextEditor_Reserved_2 | ( | ) | [private, virtual] |
void | SetCursorSelectionForFepL | ( | const TCursorSelection & | aCursorSelection | ) | [pure virtual] |
Sets the range of characters in the text editor which should be selected.
const TCursorSelection & aCursorSelection | Contains the cursor and anchor positions for the selection. |
void | SetInlineEditingCursorVisibilityL | ( | TBool | aCursorVisibility | ) | [pure virtual] |
Sets the visibility of the text cursor in the text editor.
The cursor visibility is initialised using StartFepInlineEditL(). SetInlineEditingCursorVisibilityL() is provided for FEPs which need to change the visibility of the cursor during the inline editing transaction.
TBool aCursorVisibility | ETrue for visible text cursor, EFalse for invisible text cursor. |
void | StartFepInlineEditL | ( | const TDesC & | aInitialInlineText, |
TInt | aPositionOfInsertionPointInInlineText, | |||
TBool | aCursorVisibility, | |||
const MFormCustomDraw * | aCustomDraw, | |||
MFepInlineTextFormatRetriever & | aInlineTextFormatRetriever, | |||
MFepPointerEventHandlerDuringInlineEdit & | aPointerEventHandlerDuringInlineEdit | |||
) | [pure virtual] |
Starts a FEP inline editing transaction.
Inserts a descriptor containing the initial inline text into the text editor. The inline text should normally replace any selected text.
The final three parameters are instances of abstract classes, so that the caller of this function must create and instantiate classes deriving from them. These instances must remain in existence for the entire duration of the inline editing transaction.
Inline editing should not already be taking place when this function is called.
const TDesC & aInitialInlineText | The inline text to insert into the text editor. |
TInt aPositionOfInsertionPointInInlineText | An insertion position within the inline text. This is an offset from the start of the inline text. |
TBool aCursorVisibility | ETrue for visible text cursor, EFalse for invisible text cursor in the text editor. |
const MFormCustomDraw * aCustomDraw | Pointer to a custom drawing object. May be used to do advanced formatting of the inline text. This parameter is optional; a NULL pointer may be specified. |
MFepInlineTextFormatRetriever & aInlineTextFormatRetriever | Defines a single member function, GetFormatOfFepInlineText() which is used by the text editor to find out the formatting to apply to the inline text. It is also possible to apply different formatting to different parts of the inline text. |
MFepPointerEventHandlerDuringInlineEdit & aPointerEventHandlerDuringInlineEdit | Defines a single function, HandlePointerEventInInlineTextL() which is called when a pointer event is received within the inline text. This function might update the cursor position within the inline text and do text selection. |
void | UpdateFepInlineTextL | ( | const TDesC & | aNewInlineText, |
TInt | aPositionOfInsertionPointInInlineText | |||
) | [pure virtual] |
Updates the inline text.
Called when a character is added to or deleted from the inline text.
The descriptor aNewInlineText contains the entire new inline text string, not just the new text to be combined with the old inline text.
