Curses::Application Description

Curses::Application provides the Curses Application Framework. Curses::Application provides the Curses Application Framework.Curses::Application attempts to relieve the programmer of having to deal directly with Curses at all. Based upon Curses::Widgets and Curses::Forms, all one should have to do is define the application forms and contents in the DATA block of a script. Curses::Application will take care of the rest.This module follows many of the conventions established by the Curses::Widgets and Curses::Forms modules, being built upon that framework. One area of special note, however, is the declaration of forms used within the application.Curses::Application differentiates between forms and form definitions. A form is an instance of any particular form definition. Keeping that line of separation simplifies the development of MDI (Multiple Document Interface) applications.Form definitions can be provided in two ways: as a list of definitions in the main::DATA block, or individually by using the addFormDef method. The former would normally be the simplest way to do so.At the end of your script, declare a DATA block using Perl's __DATA__ token. In that DATA block place a hash declaration (%forms) which contains a key/value pair for each form definition. The key being the name of the definition, and the value being a hash reference to the form declarations (see the Curses::Forms pod for directives available to that module). The only extra key that should be in each form's hash reference should be a TYPE directive, which would point to a module name relative to the base Curses::Forms class. If you omit this key, then it will be assumed that the form is a Curses::Forms object, or some custom derivative as specified in ALTPATH. Requirements: · Curses · Curses::Widgets · Curses::Forms
