Before a single length was used for the number of characters to retrieve
from the text, and to keep track of the size of the buffer. These are
not equivalent, since there is a possible end of line conversion.
Previously the only convenient way to get the start and end of the
selection was through offsets, which eventually need to get converted
back into items in the linked list storing the text. The new function
will help with eliminating these inefficiencies.
This function will make it easier to work with ME_Cursor objects, which
should be used in a lot of places instead of character offsets (which
often require seeking through the linked lists to perform operations
with).
These functions were just being used for addition, so it was simpler to
remove the functions and modify the places it was used.
The ME_StrRelPos2 and ME_PosToVPos were just simple wrappers around
ME_StrRelPos, and ME_PosToVPos wasn't being used.
These two functions were being used for simple operations, to get the
first or last character when pre-computing flags for splitting runs.
The call to ME_GetCharBack wasn't even giving the correct result, it
would always return -1 since it is being called with nPos of 0.
This patch simplifies the code by removing the functions and getting the
characters directly from the string.
These functions were probably previously needed because of some wierd
special handling of backspace characters, but currently there is no
reason why the nLen field can't be accessed directly.
Having to functions that just access the string length field just causes
slightly more effort for someone to look at the code, because they need
to enter the function to find out what it actually is doing.
The function was just returning the second parameter. It had some
commented out code that indicated that previously backslashes weren't
included in the length. Native wordpad doesn't handle backspaces in a
special way, so this must have been an internal representation that
complicated finding the position of characters.
I found that ME_MakeStringB was previously unused, and that the other
ME_MakeString functions repeated code that was already in ME_MakeStringB.
Making ME_MakeStringB static and using it to avoid duplicate code seemed
like a better idea than removing the function.
Rather than get the paragraph from the run, the function allows the
caller to provide the paragraph, since it is already available. This
reduces unnecessary traversals of lists that take longer as more runs
and rows are in the paragraph.
The ME_RunOfsFromCharOfs function finds the paragraph before finding the
run and offset within the run, so the function may as well be able to
return this paragraph to the caller. Many callers to the function
instead find the paragraph from the run, which ends up unnecessarily
traversing a linked list of runs within the paragraph.
Previously a count of the carraige returns and line feeds were stored
for end of paragraph runs, and a paragraph sign was stored as the actual
string. This was causing many special cases where the length of the
run needed to be determined differently if the run was or wasn't an
end of paragraph run.
There wasn't any use for storing the paragraph sign unless some drawing
code gets commented out to allow the end paragraphs to be shown,
therefore I changed the code to store the actual string that gets
retrieved by WM_GETTEXT.
The two functions ME_FindItemAtOffset and ME_RunOfsFromCharOfs were almost
identically used, since ME_FindItemAtOffset was always used to find a run.
The only difference was how they returned the offset within the run for an
end of paragraph run.
For ME_FindItemAtOffset it would return the next run if it was in between \r
and \n. ME_RunOfsFromCharOfs would instead return an nOffset of 0 for end
paragraph runs. This subtle difference introduced bugs, so I decided to
avoid having special case in this function when creating this patch, and
instead let the caller handle this case.
The methods in ITextHost are mostly thin wrappers around functions that
take a handle to a window as their first parameter. This patch just
uses the wrapper functions provided by ITextHost instead of using the
functions that require a handle to a window that the editor might now
have (for windowless richedit controls).
Previously the WM_NCCREATE was handled by the as if it was always for
later versions, then the window proc for version 1.0 would make
appropriate changes afterwards. Instead both versions should call the
same function (e.g. ME_MakeEditor) and provide the value for
bEmulateVersion10 to make the code clearer.
In order to make the message handling available to windowless richedit
controls, the message handling must be in a function that can be
called from the ITextServices_TxSendMessage method. This method will
never have a handle to a window to pass to RichEditWndProc_common in
order to get the editor with GetWindowLongPtrW, but passing the editor
will work (even if hWnd is NULL).
Previously the control words in skipped groups were being processed by
the read hook on the RTF parser. By moving this code into the class
callbacks for the parser, the skipped groups actually remain skipped.
The values returned by EM_SETPARAFORMAT and EM_GETPARAFORMAT previously
indicated an error, and the included tests shows that Windows behaves as
documented.
I created a function to set the default paragraph format to ensure
consistency when this is done. This initial paragraph format is also
now more consistent with native richedit controls. The dwMask value
always appears to have the same value when retrieved from the native
richedit controls, so all the mask values are now initialized when the
PARAFORMAT2 structure is created.
Consecutively typed characters are grouped together to be undone
together. The grouping of typed characters can be stopped by certain
events that are mentioned in MSDN's remarks on the EM_STOPGROUPTYPING
message, which is also implemented by this patch.
