- Help for EvntEdit
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- This application is used to generate a file containing details of
- the events recognised by your EvntShell version 2 programs. This
- means that it is not necessary to clutter up your programs with
- calls to EvntShell routines to attach events and results in a general
- speeding up in the initialisation of a program as the data is held in
- a form that EvntShell can use directly.
-
- The interface allows the display and attachment of events in a
- similar (though much simpler) manner to Acorn's ResEd for the C
- language.
-
- See the file 'ChangeList' for the revision history.
-
- How To Use
- ----------
-
- EvntEdit needs to know which events are used by your application -
- to this end two files need to be created inside each EvntShell2
- application directory called 'EvntData' and 'Menus'. This is done
- by adding the following lines to your main program just before the
- call to PROCshell_Exit:
-
- PROCshell_EvntSave_AllEvnts( "<EditTest$Dir>.EvntData" )
- PROCshell_MenuList_SaveList( "<EditTest$Dir>.Menus" )
-
- Then run the application and open all the windows and menus (this is
- to ensure that all of the events have been attached). On quitting
- the files will be created - at which point the two lines given above
- can be REMed out, as can any calls to attach events. It is not
- necessary to attach events in the main program because the 'EvntData'
- file will be detected and loaded when your application starts up in
- future.
-
- Once EvntEdit has been loaded onto the iconbar your EvntShell2
- application can be dragged to it to open it for editing. The Editor
- windows should be fairly self explanitory, interactive help is provided.
-
- Save any changes made to the Event data by using the iconbar menu.
- Note that you will not be prompted if you quit with unsaved data!
