I am trying to set the focus in one of my dialog forms after it displays
itself. I am using FrmDoDialog to display the dialog so I used
FrmSetEventHandler(frm,PasswordHandleEvent) to set an event handler. I
wanted to setfocus on the frmLoadEvent. When this didn't work, I wanted to
see if the event was being call so I had the following code.
static Boolean PasswordHandleEvent(EventPtr eventP)
{
Boolean handled = false;
FormPtr frmP;
switch (eventP->eType)
{
case frmLoadEvent:
{
frmP = FrmGetActiveForm();
MsgBox("a","a");
FrmDrawForm (frmP);
handled = true;
}
break;
}
return handled;
}
Just to 'see' if I get the frmLoadEvent, I display a MessageBox ( my
function ). It seems that I never got to this point. So I inserted
my MsgBox right prior to the switch statement and displayed the value of
eventP->eType. This did work so I know the system is calling
PasswordHandleEvent but eventP->eType was 6 which occording to the docs is
winExitEvent. What am I doing wrong?
thanks
