class SECMaskEdit: public CEdit
SECMaskEdit attaches to existing CEdit controls and lets you add formatted input capabilites to them. To use SECMaskEdit, you follow these steps:
1. Attach SECMaskEdit to an existing CEdit using the AttachEdit member function.
2. Set a mask that defines the format of the data to be entered.
3. Call GetData to retrieve the data without the mask, or GetRawData to retrieve the entire contents of the SECMaskEdit.
Defined in: SECMEDIT.H
Comments
SECMaskEdit supports cut, copy, paste and clear. Insert mode is also supported and is toggled on/off when the user presses the ‘VK_INSERT’ key.
Masks consist of ‘mask characters’ and literals. Literals are characters that appear unchanged in the mask, while mask characters specify a spot in the mask edit that accepts certain characters. See SetMask for a list of valid mask characters and examples of popular masks.
At runtime the mask characters are replaced with the prompt character which is a space by default. The prompt character can be changed via the SetPromptChar() member function.
NOTE: In this version of SECMaskEdit, validation is not performed on the various ‘types’ of data. For example, it is up to the SECMaskEdit user to detect that 12/35/95 is an invalid date, because while this data fits the requirements of the mask, it is invalid for a US date format.
Intelligent validation, and DDV capabilities will be added in a future version of SECMaskEdit.
The SECMaskEdit class supports DDX using DDX_Mask.
The MASKTEST sample in the \SAMPLES\TOOLKIT\STANDARD\CONTROLS\MASKTEST directory demonstrates how to use the SECMaskEdit class.
