Example

The following is an example of using the SearchText method.

/-------------------------------------------------------------------
// ECLPS::SearchText
//
// Search for a string in various parts of the screen.
//-------------------------------------------------------------------
void Sample63() {
 
ECLPS PS('A');            // PS object
char  FindStr[] = "IBM";  // String to search for
ULONG LastOne;            // Position of search result
 
// Case insensative search of entire screen
 
printf("Searching for '%s'...\n", FindStr);
printf("  Anywhere, any case: ");
if (PS.SearchText(FindStr, TRUE) != 0)
  printf("Yes\n");
else
  printf("No\n");
 
// Backward, case sensative search on line 1
 
printf("  Line 1, exact match: ");
if (PS.SearchText(FindStr, 1, 80, SrchBackward) != 0)
  printf("Yes\n");
else
  printf("No\n");
 
// Backward, full screen search
 
LastOne = PS.SearchText(FindStr, SrchBackward, TRUE);
if (LastOne != 0)
  printf("  Last occurance on the screen is at row %lu, column %lu.\n",
         PS.ConvertPosToRow(LastOne), PS.ConvertPosToCol(LastOne));
 
} // end sample
