fxruby users - Jan 2009 - FXTextField, FXTable, cut-copy-paste problems

Hi,

There are a few cut-copy-paste problems under FXRuby. I took the time
this morning to test everything carefully. Here is the test code I have
been using:

---------------------------
#!/usr/bin/ruby

require ''fox16''

include Fox

class MyWindow < FXMainWindow
    
  def initialize(app)

    super(app, "Window", nil, nil, DECOR_ALL, 0, 0, 600, 350)
    
    # Menu bar stretched along the top of the main window
    menubar = FXMenuBar.new(self, LAYOUT_SIDE_TOP|LAYOUT_FILL_X)
  
    # File menu
    filemenu = FXMenuPane.new(self)
    FXMenuTitle.new(menubar, "&File", nil, filemenu)
    FXMenuCommand.new(filemenu, "&Quit\tCtl-Q\tQuit the
application",
        nil, app, FXApp::ID_QUIT)
        
    # Table and textfield
    f = FXVerticalFrame.new(self, LAYOUT_FILL_X|LAYOUT_FILL_Y)
    tf = FXTextField.new(f, 16)
    t = FXTable.new(f, nil, 0,
TABLE_COL_SIZABLE|LAYOUT_FILL_X|LAYOUT_FILL_Y)
    
    t.visibleRows = 3
    t.visibleColumns = 3
    t.setTableSize(3, 3)
    
    # Data
    tf.text = "123"
    t.setItemText(1, 1, "456")
  end

  def create
    super
    show(PLACEMENT_SCREEN)
  end
  
end

if __FILE__ == $0
  application = FXApp.new("Attik System", "FXRuby Test")
  MyWindow.new(application)
  application.create
  application.run
end
---------------------------

As we can expect, cut or copy behave exactly the same, so I''m just
taking into account the copy-paste commands between the FXTextField and
the FXTable. There are differences when you issue a command on an
FXTable selected cell (after a single clic on a cell, I''ll call that
the
"select mode"), or on an FXTable cell in "edit mode" (with
the cursor
blinking in it).

Here are the results:
---------------------

1. Copy-paste from FXTextField to FXTextField 
-> Everything is fine

2. Copy-paste from FXTextField to FXTable
-> Everything is fine

3. Copy-paste from FXTable to FXTextField
-> Copy in select mode: trailing characters are added at the end of the
pasted text
-> Copy in edit mode: nothing is pasted

4. Copy-paste from FXTable to FXTable
-> Copy in edit mode, paste in select mode: nothing is pasted
-> Copy in edit mode, paste in edit mode: nothing is pasted
-> Copy in select mode, paste in select mode: everything is fine
-> Copy in select mode, paste in edit mode: trailing characters are
added at the end of the pasted text

My setups:
----------

Windows XP, Ruby 1.8.6, FXRuby 1.6.18
MacOS X, Ruby 1.8.6, FXRuby 1.6.18


Is that a fox or fxruby problem?

It''s definitely a FOX bug. FXRuby just passes all of that data through
as-is.

Hello,

I''d like my app to response when a cell in my table is changed
interactively (responding after the change has been done). For example, I want
to pop up a confirmation dialog box.

Looking at FXRuby or Fox API for FXTable and FXTableItem does not give me a clue
what message FXTableItem or FXTable is sending when such event occurs.

What message does it send? Or how can I detect that a cell value has been
changed?

If the information is available in RDoc, I''d appreciate if you can tell
me where to look for, as the page for FXTable or FXTableItem itself does not
give me a clue.

Thank you in advance

My apology,

I misread FXTable''s SEL_REPLACED as an event when the cells in range
has been replaced, not the contents. In fact, this is exactly what I need.

Thank you and I apologize for the noise
