MLcToPos Function

Return the position of a character in a formatted string.

Namespace:  XSharp.Core
Assembly:  XSharp.Core (in XSharp.Core.dll) Version: 2.7
Syntax
Copy
 FUNCTION MLcToPos(
	cText AS STRING,
	nWidth AS DWORD,
	nLine AS DWORD,
	nCol AS DWORD,
	nTabSize AS DWORD,
	lWrap AS LOGIC
) AS DWORD
Request Example View Source

Parameters

cText
Type: String
A string.
nWidth
Type: UInt32
The length of each line after <cText> is formatted.
nLine
Type: UInt32
The line number in the formatted text, starting from the top at 1.
nCol
Type: UInt32
The column number in the formatted text, starting from the left at 0.
nTabSize
Type: UInt32
The number of characters to insert when the user presses Tab.
If <nTabSize> is not specified, 4 spaces are inserted.
lWrap
Type: Boolean
The word-wrap flag.
The default is TRUE.

Return Value

Type: UInt32
The byte position of the character within <cText>, counting from 1.
Remarks
MLCToPos() determines the character position that corresponds to a particular line and column within formatted text.  Note that the line number is 1-relative, and the column number is 0-relative.
This is compatible with MemoEdit().
The return value is 1-relative, making it suitable for use in Substr() or other string functions. MLCToPos() is used with MPosToLC() to create search routines or other text processing for MemoEdit().
Examples
This example gives the current position of the character that will appear in line 3, column 0 when <cText> is formatted with a line length of 5 characters:
X#
Copy
1cText := "Note the side on which the bread" + "is buttered."
2? MLCToPos(cText, 5, 3, 0)        // Result: 10
