==Help Needed==* <strike>Bug(?): The insert mode in our assignment works as it is supposed to but fails Please blog about your problems and notes and add the test when running the test programlink with a proper title below. Has anyone else encountered this problem, or is this an error on my side?<br /strike> I had the same problem. Try Reply to replace the original code '''Console::_insertMode''' by just '''insertMode'''. It works for me. Otherwise it is local I guess. So it works within your application but does not react to parameter passed to the function. Thank you. I actually solved it by making insertMode=Console::_insertMode. * Just noticed that the return string for the 4-6 test is wrong. It checks others blogs to see if you've inserted 'ab' into the string, help and not 'abc' like update the dialog box asks for. If you insert only 'ab' the test passes as it should. * In test 4.9 (END button), the test gives the string which stays in the middle of the field, is that OK?! I see that kind of a weird situation. In that case it fails the END button test, because values for curPosition & strOffset are not right. Ideas? You want to set the curPosition=size-*strOffset. This will mean that it scrolls down the string blog link to the end if the length of the string is longer than the field, but only move to the end of the string if it isn't, which allows for having the string stay in the middle of the field as in the test. When indicate you do this, though, don't forget that you need replied to make sure that, when the curPosition goes outside the field, the curPosition and offset are changed accordingly. * Anyone know where/how to submit when it's complete? If I'm not mistaking the test program should submit it in the end of the testing automaticallythem. No, once you reach the end it says "Wait for the final tester to submit the assignment". Unless there's another program around that I'm not aware of. 

Your submission consists of a class called Console that is to be inherited from BConsole in a namespace called '''cuicio'''. Your application module is fully portable across Borland C++5.5 on windows, Linux GNU C++, Viusual C++ on Windows and Mac C++ platforms which accepts console input, and provides console output through the set of facilities available in your Console module.

The name of the library object to be created is console. The header file for the original version of this module is console.h and the implementation file for the original version is console.cpp. All of the identifiers for the library module and all upgrades to the module are defined in the cui cio namespace (short for console input output).

* instantiate Console, in an object called "console" in cui cio namespace and create an external linkage to in console.h

===lineeditedit() method===

int lineeditedit(char *str, int row, int col, int fieldLength, int maxStrLength,

''First run your program with cui_testcio_test.cpp and make sure it passes all the tests up to and including "4.16". If all tests are passed continue with step two:

<!--* Submitting the assignment with old version of cui_textcio_text.o

$ ~fardad.soleimanloo/cui_testcio_test

bcc32 bconsole.cpp console.cpp cui_testcoi_test.cpp

c++ bconsole.cpp console.cpp cui_testcoi_test.cpp -lcurses -Wno-write-strings

g++ bconsole.cpp console.cpp cui_testcio_test.cpp -lncurses -Wno-write-strings

<!--*Tester program is at git://github.com/Seneca-OOP344/20132notes.git (Notes repository) in '''TesterPrograms''' directory.

Test your program with cio_test.cpp from the same conui directory stated above. When your program passed all the tests; on matrix, create a directory and copy all the source files (console.cpp, console.h, bconsole.cpp, bconsole.h) into it. Then copy cui_testcio_test.o from "~fardad.soleimanloo" and then compile your code with your Fardad's version of cui_test cio_test (i.e cui_testcio_test.o) and run it. If all the tests are passed successfully, an email will be sent to your Fardad automatically with your source code (console.h and console.cpp) attached to it.

to copy the cui_testcio_test.o execute the following on matrix.<br />

$cp ~fardad.soleimanloo/cui_testcio_test.o .

$ g++ bconsole.cpp console.cpp cui_testcio_test.o -lncurses -Wno-write-strings<br />
