The array must be terminated by a \fBNULL\fR. + +The function \fBform_fields\fR returns the field array of the given form. + +The function \fBfield_count\fR returns the count of fields in \fIform\fR. + +The function \fBmove_field\fR move the given field (which must be disconnected) +to a specified location on the screen. +.SH RETURN VALUES +The function \fBform_fields\fR returns \fBNULL\fR on error. + +The function \fBfield_count\fR returns \fBERR\fR (the general +\fBcurses\fR error return value) on error. + +The functions \fBset_form_fields\fR and \fBmove_field\fR return one of +the following codes on error: +.TP 5 +\fBE_OK\fR +The routine succeeded. +.TP 5 +\fBE_SYSTEM_ERROR\fR +System error occurred (see \fBerrno\fR). +.TP 5 +\fBE_BAD_ARGUMENT\fR +Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument. +.TP 5 +\fBE_POSTED\fR +The form is already posted. +.TP 5 +\fBE_CONNECTED\fR +The field is already connected to a form. +.SH SEE ALSO +\fBcurses\fR(3X), \fBform\fR(3X). +.SH NOTES +The header file \fB<form.h>\fR automatically includes the header file +\fB<curses.h>\fR. +.SH PORTABILITY +These routines emulate the System V forms library. They were not supported on +Version 7 or BSD versions. + +The SVr4 forms library documentation specifies the \fBfield_count\fR error value +as -1 (which is the value of \fBERR\fR). +.SH AUTHORS +Juergen Pfeifer.
