VS_Menu() "Pull-Down" menu system
Description:
VS_Menu() provides the programmer with a very fast and efficient means
of producing "pull-down" menus for their users.
Syntax:
n_Option = VS_MENU( a_Options, ac_Title )
Pass:
a_Options is an nested array that contains information about each
option on your menu. a_Options has the following structure...
--------------------
Pos Meta Symbol
--------------------
1 c_PullDownName
2 a_PullDownOpts
c_PullDownName is a character expression that should contain the
name of the pulldown menu for that element in a_Options.
a_PullDownOpts is a sub-array that contains information about each
individual pulldown menu options.
a_PullDownOpts has the following structure...
---------------------
Pos Meta Symbol
---------------------
1 c_OptionName
2 b_OptionBlock
c_OptionName is a character expression that should contain the
name of the option on the pulldown.
b_OptionBlock is a code block that will be EVALuated if the user
selects this option.
ac_Title is an array of character expressions to display at the
top of the menu as a "title".
Return:
VS_Menu() always returns NIL
Notes:
VERY IMPORTANT!!!!
VS_Menu() is NOT the same as the older version of V_MENU()!! Things
have changed drastically.
Example:
FUNCTION MAIN
LOCAL a_Menu := {}
LOCAL a_Options := {}
LOCAL ac_Title := {}
VS_InitVern()
AADD( ac_Title, "" )
AADD( ac_Title, "Sample Menu System" )
AADD( ac_Title, DTOC(DATE()) )
AADD( ac_Title, "" )
a_Options : {}
AADD( a_Options, { "Clients", {||Client() } } )
AADD( a_Options, { "Products", {||Product()} } )
AADD( a_Options, { "SalesPersons", {||Sales() } } )
AAD( a_Menu, { "Maintenance", a_Options } )
a_Options := {}
AADD( a_Options, { "Client List", {||R_Client() } } )
AADD( a_Options, { "Product List", {||R_Product()} } )
AADD( a_Options, { "Sales Tally", {||R_Tally() } } )
ADD( a_Menu, {"Reports", a_Options } )
a_Options := {}
AADD( a_Options, {"Pack Databases", {||PackDbfs()}})
AADD( a_Options, {"Re-Inex", {||Ntx_Dbfs()}})
AADD( a_Menu, { "Utilities", a_Options } )
a_Options := {}
AADD( a_Options, {"Product Info",{||ProdInfo()} } )
AADD( a_Options, { "Quit", {||CleanUp() } } )
AADD( a_Menu, { "Other", a_Options } )
VS_Menu( a_Menu, ac_Title)
RETURN(NIL)
