The patch that I sent earlier is backward compatible: it will allow just "event" verb in child locale, while preserving the three existing handlers with the priority: - PID_handler - PID_CID_event - event_CURRENT_ <-- new - PID_default
http://www.jsoftware.com/pipermail/general/2008-March/031629.html Note 1: the event_CURRENT_ is processed only if "syslocalec" is non-blank AND "event" verb exists. Note 2: in locating child handler in control locale, inheritence need to be considered to allow cascaded handlers. E.g. base-->mouse gesture-->pan/zoom handler-->image viewer. But I believe it works so already: nc<'names' 3 nc<'names_base_' 3 nc<'names_z_' 3 > Analogously, if wdhandler is called in a form object locale, would you like > the option that wdhandler just call event? No, that's not feasible and will break existing code. In particular, form locale should be able to handle events for multiple form IDs. In contrast to form locale handler, in control locale the control ID and the form ID are known and unique for a given instance of control object. For form locales though, the difference between form instance and "static" form locale is only ability to create multiple forms simultaneously. Whereas within the (either type of) locale you still need to distinguish between form IDs and control IDs. It was tested successfully with "jsplitter" by applying the patch to wdhandler and removing > (PID,'_',ID,'_paint')=: paint > (PID,'_',ID,'_mbldown')=: mbldown > (PID,'_',ID,'_mblup')=: mblup > (PID,'_',ID,'_mmove')=: mmove Similarly it can be done in "jzgrid" and other controls where setlocale is not even used. --- Eric Iverson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > If wdhandler is called in a child object locale, you would like wdhandler to > just call event.
