Re: bug in the EditText Area
posted by: a.admin at myway.it
Hello again, Wolf
After set VOID = sendMessage( fTextArea, 197, 0, 0 ) the situation improv=
es, but some problems remain.
A 62K file may be edited with 'curious' restrictions: can cut/paste undo/re=
do through all the file, but if the use of setSelectedText() is needed, it =
works fine in almost all the file, but bad at its last lines, where a strin=
g may be tagged before and after, but the string itself is replaced with an=
other, taken somewhere else in that text or from the clipboard.
This doesn't look like a 'normal' behaviour, and may be somewhat dangerous.=
By the way, this problem arised from the use of a popup men=F9, which Derek=
said "is built into Windows and not win32lib, so playing with it will requ=
ire lots of trickery somewhere.."
The same for larger files, now editable once loaded, but without any contro=
l on what the editor is going to do, depending on where the text is being m=
odified, beginning-of-file (just before the 64k limit?) or not.
Every action may be done or not done, but the success cannot be predictable=
: a user may not to realize that, before it's too late.
I know that the programmer can prevent this situation (even if not so easy)=
, but this is the programmer's job; the system before all should do its one=
correctly. So I think there is a bug somewhere :()
