wtextview-devel — For programmers changing WTextView

[David P. O. <os...@ie...>]

WTextView 1.0.3a3 is now on 
<http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=36040&release_id=85911>

I've updated the WTextView web site at 
<http://wtextview.sourceforge.net/> to describe it.

Still to do: I haven't yet look at printing problems under OS X. I 
haven't yet tracked the changes in WASTE. I haven't yet got CVS set 
up with sourceforge.


Thank you very much for your help. I really appreciate the time 
you've put in to this, and that you wrote me with fixes and 
suggestions.

Here are the release notes for WTextView 1.0.3a3:

The precompiled headers are now built into the Output folder, which 
makes it easier for me to package this up to put on the web site: I 
can just dump the Output and Data folders.

I've added "using" declarations to the header for WTextView, so, if 
you inherit from it, you can say:

WTextView::Click(myMouseDown) and have the correct method be called. 
Richard Buckle pointed out the problem.

The copy constructor now calls InsertText with arguments in the 
correct order. Olivier Destrebecq pointed out the problem.

Olivier Destrebecq fixed a potential infinite loop in 
WTextModel::CountSubModels().

If a throw occurs during the constructor, the print panels array or 
the WEReference could leak. WTextView now handles these situations 
correctly. Florent Pillet pointed out the problem.

// -- Begin Florent Pillet:

I moved InitTextView() to FinishCreateSelf(). The reason for that is 
that if you derive a class from WTextView (this is what I do), and 
override some virtual methods, any virtual method
called from a method that is called during construction goes to the 
base class's method, not the derived class' (this is the standard). 
Also, I added missing initializers in all the constructors. I
fixed a problem when clicking the text field and it was not the 
target, the cursor position was set to the beginning of the field 
instead of the point that was clicked. See my comments in the
"ClickSelf" method.
