select a widget from the toolbar and drags on the canvas the rectangle

+PgAccess - Scripts and Forms
<HR WIDTH="100%"></H1>
-
-<P>Beginning with 0.70 version, I have introduced in PgAccess two new modules
-for operating with scripts and forms.</P>
-
-<P> This would give to PgAccess the power of creating
-application directly into PgAccess, defining new modules, procedures, forms
-and possibly making it a rapid development tool for PostgreSQL. The "scripts"
-and "forms" modules are using two new tables called pga_forms
-and pga_scripts. PgAccess take care of creating them if user is opening
-a new database and grant ALL permissions on them to PUBLIC. <BR>
- Both scripts and forms are containing in fact sources
-of code written in Tcl/Tk and when the user has choose to "open"
-one of them, either by double-clicking in the main window or pressing the
-"Open" button PgAccess is searching for them in pga_forms or
-pga_scripts table, get the code and simply "<B>eval</B>" it !<BR>
- Of course, when Designing a script, a simple text editor
-is opened and text is saved as is in pga_scripts table. When "designing"
-a form, a "form editor" that would be very similar with "Visual
-Tcl" would be invoked.</P>
-
-<P> This mechanism and the extremely versatile scripting
-mode of Tcl/Tk would give PgAccess a great power for creating end user
-application using PosgreSQL. The most important thing is that the user
-could call procedures and functions that I have used for building up PgAccess
-!</P>
-
-<H3>Forms</H3>
-
-<P> Forms are special Tcl/Tk source code that is used
-for creating windows and placing widgets inside it. When Tcl/Tk is "eval"
-them, a new window appears, with buttons as defined that could call "user
-defined scripts", "user defined procedures" or "internal
-PgAccess procedures".<BR>
- For the moment, 0.70 version of PgAccess does not have
-a module for designing forms. It is intended to make an interface to the
-most powerful program of designing applications under Tcl/Tk , Visual Tcl
-, so it could handle forms designed to be used inside PgAccess.<BR>
- Forms can hold all the widgets allowed in Tcl/Tk , buttons,

+<BR> Forms can hold all the widgets allowed in Tcl/Tk , buttons,
check-boxes, radio-buttons, list-boxes, frames, canvases, etc. With these
forms, you can control your application so PgAccess would become just a
-"shell", a startup point for you applications.</P>
-
-<H3>Scripts</H3>
-
-<P> Scripts are normal Tcl/Tk code that is interpreted
-by Tcl/Tk. You can define your own procedures inside a script called "Library"
-for example. You can call your procedures from within another script, from
-another procedure.<BR>

PgAccess as an application. Just write <B><TT><FONT COLOR="#000080">open_table

- If you are writing a script called "Autoexec"
-then it will be executed every time the database is opened. You can put

-First of all, get your PgAccess 0.70 version NOW !</P>
-
-<P><IMG SRC="a_right.gif" HEIGHT=20 WIDTH=20> Define your first
-form. Remember, the form design module hasn't arrived yet :-( , so you
-will have to define your first form using an action query :<BR>
-1. Click on Query tab and press "New" button<BR>
-2. Enter "<TT>Generate my first form</TT>" in Query name field<BR>
-3. Copy and paste from your browser window into query definition area the
-next text :<BR>
-<BR>
-<TT>insert into pga_forms values('My first form',' set base .pga_win_1;

-5. In the mai window, select by clicking the query "Generate my first

-
-<P>Your query must have been executed without errors! If you will check
-now the "Forms" tab, you will find there your first form. Press
-"Open" button and enjoy it! For the moment, if you will press
-"My first button" you will get an error message. Of course :
-we haven't yet defined our first script ! </P>
-
-<P><IMG SRC="a_right.gif" HEIGHT=20 WIDTH=20> Defining our first
-script :<BR>
-1. Click on Scripts tab and pres "New" button<BR>
-2. Enter "My first script" in script's name field<BR>
-3. Enter the body as the script the following statements :<BR>
-<BR>
-<TT>MsgBox "Warning" "PgAccess unleashed!"<BR>
-open_table pga_scripts<BR>
-<BR>
-</TT>4. Press "Save" button then "Cancel"</P>
-
-<P>It's now the time to define our first library script. I am defining
-not because I need it. I could write directly in "My first script"
-the instructions for creating that warning window but I only wanted to
-show you how you can mix PgAccess script execution with Tcl/Tk code and
-so on.</P>
-
-<P><IMG SRC="a_right.gif" HEIGHT=20 WIDTH=20> Define our first
-library that will contain your "user defined" Tcl/Tk procedures
-and functions :<BR>
-1. Click on Scripts tab and pres "New" button<BR>
-2. Enter "My first library" in script's name field<BR>
-3. Enter the body of the script the following statements :<BR>
-<BR>
-<TT>proc MsgBox {title msg} {<BR>
- tk_messageBox -title $title -message
-$msg<BR>
-}<BR>
-<BR>
-</TT>4. Press "Save" button then "Cancel"</P>
-
-<P><IMG SRC="file:/home/teo/a_right.gif" HEIGHT=20 WIDTH=20> Define
-our first autoexec script that will contain commands that will be executed
-when opening database :<BR>
-1. Click on Scripts tab and pres "New" button<BR>
-2. Enter "Autoexec" in script's name field<BR>
-3. Enter the body of the script the following statements :<BR>
-<BR>
-<TT>execute_script "My first library"<BR>
-open_form "My first form"<BR>
-<BR>
-</TT>4. Press "Save" button then "Cancel"</P>
-
-<P>Everything is OK now! You will have to exit PgAccess and enter it again
-opening the same database ! Voila , your first form will pop-up on the
-screen, a message box is displayed and after clicking Ok button the table
-pga_scripts will be opened in table viewer revealing what's inside ! With
-this occasion I have shown how you could open in table view mode a "pga_..."
-system table that is hidden by PgAccess in main view mode!</P>
-
-<P>I am stopping here, asking you to try this new features and sending
-me as more feed-backs as you can! What do you think about this new features
-? How would you like to be developed PgAccess in future ? In this
-moment, I am working in recoding the main part of PgAccess in order to
-give to the user more "system" functions that would help him
-creating new applications very easy.<BR>

-
-<P>You will also have the ability of hiding the main window of PgAccess
-at the beginning of "Autoexec" script execution and showing it
-before destroying "My first form". For this example, delete the
-previously defined "My first form" and create it with another
-action query with this code :<BR>
-<BR>
-<TT>insert into pga_forms values('My first form',' set base .pga_win_1;
-if {[winfo exists $base]} { wm deiconify $base; return }; toplevel $base
--class Toplevel; wm focusmodel $base passive; wm geometry $base 395x389+325+188;
-wm maxsize $base 1009 738; wm minsize $base 1 1; wm overrideredirect $base
-0; wm resizable $base 1 1; wm deiconify $base; wm title $base "User
-defined Form No.1"; button $base.b1 -command {execute_script "My
-first script"} -text "My first button" ; button $base.bexit
--command {Window show .dw ; destroy [focus]} -padx 9 -pady 3 -text Exit
-; place $base.bexit -x 340 -y 355 -anchor nw -bordermode ignore ; place
-$base.b1 -x 10 -y 10 -anchor nw;'); <BR>
-<BR>
-</TT>This new one is just showing main window (.dw) before destroying the
-"user defined window" . <BR>
-Also make "Autoexec" script to show like this :<BR>
-<BR>
-<TT>execute_script "My first library"<BR>
-Window hide .dw<BR>
-open_form "My first form"</TT><BR>
