org.gnu.gtk
Interface Editable

All Known Implementing Classes:
Entry, SpinButton

Deprecated. This class is part of the java-gnome 2.x family of libraries, which, due to their inefficiency and complexity, are no longer being maintained and have been abandoned by the java-gnome project. This class may in the future have an equivalent in java-gnome 4.0, try looking for org.gnome.gtk.Editable. You should be aware that there is a considerably different API in the new library: the architecture is completely different and most notably internals are no longer exposed to public view.

public interface Editable

The Editable interface is used by widgets that edit text, such as Entry widget. It cannot be instantiated by itself. This interface contains functions for generically manipulating an editable widget, a large number of action events used for key bindings, and several events that an application can connect to to modify the behavior of a widget.

Method Detail

selectRegion

void selectRegion(int start,
                  int end)
Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

Select a region of text. The characters that are selected are those characters at positions from start up to, but not including end. If end is negative, then the characters selected will be those characters from start to the end of the text


insertText

int insertText(java.lang.String text,
               int offset)
Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

Insert text at a given point

Parameters:
text - The text to insert.
offset - The offset into the buffer to begin the insert.
Returns:
The current offset after the text has been inserted.

deleteText

void deleteText(int start,
                int end)
Deprecated. Superceeded by java-gnome 4.0; a method along these lines may well exist in the new bindings, but if it does it likely has a different name or signature due to the shift to an algorithmic mapping of the underlying native libraries.

Delete a sequence of characters. The characters that are deleted are those characters from position start up to, but not including end. If end is a negative number then the characters to be deleted are from start until the end of the text.


getCharacters

java.lang.String getCharacters(int start,
                               int end)

Retrieve a sequence of characters. The characters that are retrieved are those characters from position start up to, but not including end. If end is negative, then the characters retrieved will be those characters from start until the end of the text.
