Methods

impl Window
[src]

fn addch<T: ToChtype>(&self, ch: T) -> i32

fn addstr(&self, string: &str) -> i32

fn attron(&self, attributes: chtype) -> i32

fn attrset(&self, attributes: chtype) -> i32

Sets the current attributes of the given window to attributes.

fn bkgd(&self, ch: chtype) -> i32

Not only change the background, but apply it immediately to every cell in the window.

fn derwin(&self, nlines: i32, ncols: i32, begy: i32, begx: i32) -> Result<Windowi32>

The same as subwin(), except that begy and begx are relative to the origin of the window rather than the screen.

There is no difference between subwindows and derived windows.

fn draw_box<T: ToChtype>(&self, verch: T, horch: T) -> i32

fn erase(&self) -> i32

Copies blanks (i.e. the background chtype) to every cell of the window.

fn get_beg_y(&self) -> i32

Get the upper-left y coordinate of this window

fn get_beg_x(&self) -> i32

fn get_beg_yx(&self) -> (i32, i32)

Get the upper-left y and x coordinates of this window

fn getch(&self) -> Option<Input>

Read a character from the terminal associated with the window.

In nodelay mode, if there is no input waiting, None is returned. In delay mode, the program will hang until the system passes text through to the program. Depending on the setting of cbreak(), this will be after one character or after the first newline. Unless noecho() has been set, the character will also be echoed into the designated window.

If keypad() is TRUE, and a function key is pressed, the token for that function key will be returned instead of the raw characters. If nodelay(win, TRUE) has been called on the window and no input is waiting, None is returned.

fn get_max_x(&self) -> i32

Return the maximum x value of this Window, in other words the number of columns.

fn get_max_y(&self) -> i32

Return the maximum y value of this Window, in other words the number of rows.

fn get_max_yx(&self) -> (i32, i32)

Return the maximum y and x value of this Window

fn keypad(&self, use_keypad: bool) -> i32

Controls whether getch() returns function/special keys as single key codes (e.g., the left arrow key as KEY_LEFT).

Per X/Open, the default for keypad mode is OFF. You'll probably want it on. With keypad mode off, if a special key is pressed, getch() does nothing or returns ERR.

fn mv(&self, y: i32, x: i32) -> i32

The cursor associated with the window is moved to the given location.

This does not move the physical cursor of the terminal until refresh() is called. The position specified is relative to the upper left corner of the window, which is (0,0).

fn mvaddch<T: ToChtype>(&self, y: i32, x: i32, ch: T) -> i32

moves the cursor to the specified position and adds ch to the specified window

fn mvaddstr(&self, y: i32, x: i32, string: &str) -> i32

Write all the characters of the string str to the given window. The functionality is similar to calling waddch() once for each character in the string.

fn mvinch(&self, y: i32, x: i32) -> chtype

Retrieves the character and attribute from the specified window position, in the form of a chtype.

fn nodelay(&self, enabled: bool) -> i32

Controls whether wgetch() is a non-blocking call. If the option is enabled, and no input is ready, wgetch() will return ERR. If disabled, wgetch() will hang until input is ready.

fn printw(&self, string: &str) -> i32

Add a string to the window at the current cursor position.

fn refresh(&self) -> i32

Copies the named window to the physical terminal screen, taking into account what is already there in order to optimize cursor movement.

This function must be called to get any output on the terminal, as other routines only manipulate data structures. Unless leaveok() has been enabled, the physical cursor of the terminal is left at the location of the window's cursor.

fn subwin(&self, nlines: i32, ncols: i32, begy: i32, begx: i32) -> Result<Windowi32>

Creates a new subwindow within a window.

The dimensions of the subwindow are nlines lines and ncols columns. The subwindow is at position (begy, begx) on the screen. This position is relative to the screen, and not to the window orig. Changes made to either window will affect both. When using this routine, you will often need to call touchwin() before calling wrefresh().

fn timeout(&self, milliseconds: i32)

Set blocking or non-blocking reads for the specified window.

The delay is measured in milliseconds. If it's negative, a blocking read is used; if zero, then non-blocking reads are done -- if no input is waiting, ERR is returned immediately. If the delay is positive, the read blocks for the delay period; if the period expires, ERR is returned.

fn ungetch(&self, input: &Input) -> i32

Places ch back onto the input queue to be returned by the next call to getch().
