- <B>form_field_validation</B> - data type validation for fields
-
-
-</PRE>
-<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2><PRE>
- <B>#include</B> <B>&lt;form.h&gt;</B>
- int set_field_type(FIELD *field, FIELDTYPE *type, ...);
- FIELDTYPE *field_type(const FIELD *field);
- void *field_arg(const FIELD *field);

-<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2><PRE>
- The function <B>set_field_type</B> declares a data type for a
- given form field. This is the type checked by validation
- functions. The types are as follows:
-
- TYPE_ALNUM
- Alphanumeric data. Requires a third <B>int</B> argument, a
- minimum field width.
-
- TYPE_ALPHA
- Character data. Requires a third <B>int</B> argument, a
- minimum field width.
-
- TYPE_ENUM
- Accept one of a specified set of strings. Requires a
- third <B>(char</B> <B>**)</B> argument pointing to a string list; a
- fourth <B>int</B> flag argument to enable case-sensitivity;
- and a fifth <B>int</B> flag argument specifying whether a
- partial match must be a unique one (if this flag is
- off, a prefix matches the first of any set of more
- than one list elements with that prefix). Please
- notice that the string list is not copied, only a
- reference to it is stored in the field. So you should
- avoid to use a list that lives in automatic variables
- on the stack.
-
- TYPE_INTEGER
- Integer data, parsable to an integer by <B>atoi(3)</B>.
- Requires a third <B>int</B> argument controlling the preci-
- sion, a fourth <B>long</B> argument constraining minimum
- value, and a fifth <B>long</B> constraining maximum value.
- If the maximum value is less or equal the minimum
- value, the range is simply ignored. On return the
- field buffer is formatted according to the <B>printf</B>
- format specification ".*ld", where the '*' is
- replaced by the precision argument. For details of
- the precision handling see <B>printf's</B> man-page.
-
- TYPE_NUMERIC
- Numeric data (may have a decimal-point part).
- Requires a third <B>int</B> argument controlling the preci-
- sion, a fourth <B>double</B> argument constraining minimum
- value, and a fifth <B>double</B> constraining maximum value.
- If your system supports locale's, the decimal point
- character to be used must be the one specified by
- your locale. If the maximum value is less or equal
- the minimum value, the range is simply ignored. On
- return the field buffer is formatted according to the
- <B>printf</B> format specification ".*f", where the '*' is
- replaced by the precision argument. For details of
- the precision handling see <B>printf's</B> man-page.
-
- TYPE_REGEXP
- Regular expression data. Requires a regular expres-
- sion <B>(char</B> <B>*)</B> third argument; the data is valid if
- the regular expression matches it. Regular expres-
- sions are in the format of <B><A HREF="regcomp.3x.html">regcomp(3x)</A></B> and
- <B><A HREF="regexec.3x.html">regexec(3x)</A></B>. Please notice that the regular expres-
- sion must match the whole field. If you have for
- example an eight character wide field, a regular
- expression "^[0-9]*$" always means that you have to
- fill all eight positions with digits. If you want to
- allow fewer digits, you may use for example "^[0-9]*
- *$" which is good for trailing spaces (up to an empty
- field), or "^ *[0-9]* *$" which is good for leading
- and trailing spaces around the digits.
-
- TYPE_IPV4
- An Internet Protocol Version 4 address. This requires
- no additional argument. It is checked whether or not
- the buffer has the form a.b.c.d, where a,b,c and d
- are numbers between 0 and 255. Trailing blanks in the
- buffer are ignored. The address itself is not vali-
- dated. Please note that this is an ncurses extension.
- This field type may not be available in other curses
- implementations.
-
- It is possible to set up new programmer-defined field
- types. See the <B><A HREF="form_fieldtype.3x.html">form_fieldtype(3x)</A></B> manual page.

-<H2>RETURN VALUE</H2><PRE>
- The functions <B>field_type</B> and <B>field_arg</B> return <B>NULL</B> on
- error. The function <B>set_field_type</B> returns one of the fol-
- lowing:
-
- <B>E_OK</B> The routine succeeded.
-
- <B>E_SYSTEM_ERROR</B>
- System error occurred (see <B>errno</B>).

-<H2>PORTABILITY</H2><PRE>
- These routines emulate the System V forms library. They
- were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions.
