Opens an editor window for @racket[filename]. The file name is passed to the
|
||||
Racket editor frame and the editor is shown immediately.
|
||||
@bold{Purpose.} Opens an editor window for @racket[filename].
|
||||
|
||||
@bold{Preconditions.} @racket[filename] identifies the file to open.
|
||||
@racket[frame-cb] must accept two arguments: a lifecycle symbol and the editor
|
||||
frame. The geometry arguments specify valid dimensions and screen coordinates.
|
||||
|
||||
@bold{Postconditions.} An editor frame has been created and shown. When
|
||||
@racket[wait?] is @racket[#f], @racket[rkdt] returns after the frame has been
|
||||
shown and the @racket['after-show] callback has run. When @racket[wait?] is
|
||||
@racket[#t], @racket[rkdt] waits until the frame is closed.
|
||||
|
||||
@bold{Result.} The procedure returns @racket[(void)]. The editor frame itself is
|
||||
made available to @racket[frame-cb] during its lifecycle callbacks.
|
||||
|
||||
@bold{Internal workings.} Each open editor receives an internal number. That
|
||||
number is appended to the window title and is used to distinguish stored window
|
||||
geometry. Numbers belonging to closed editors are reused. On close, the current
|
||||
position and size are stored for that internal number and the current screen
|
||||
configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
The @racket[#:width], @racket[#:height], @racket[#:x], and @racket[#:y]
|
||||
arguments specify the initial geometry for a window for which no stored geometry
|
||||
is available. When an editor window is closed, @tt{rackedit} stores its position
|
||||
and size. A later editor window with the same internal window number restores
|
||||
that geometry.
|
||||
arguments specify the initial geometry when no stored geometry is available.
|
||||
Stored geometry is associated with the screen configuration derived from the
|
||||
number and dimensions of the displays visible to Racket. Changing the monitor
|
||||
configuration therefore selects a different set of stored geometry values.
|
||||
|
||||
Stored geometry is associated with the current screen configuration. The screen
|
||||
configuration is derived from the number and dimensions of the displays visible
|
||||
to Racket. Consequently, changing the monitor configuration causes the default
|
||||
geometry, or geometry previously stored for that configuration, to be used.
|
||||
|
||||
If @racket[wait?] is @racket[#f], the procedure returns after the editor has
|
||||
been shown. If @racket[wait?] is @racket[#t], the current event handler waits
|
||||
until the editor window is closed before the procedure continues.
|
||||
|
||||
The @racket[frame-cb] procedure receives the editor frame. With the default
|
||||
@racket[#:wait?] value it is called after the frame has been shown and can be
|
||||
used to customize the frame, for example to change its title. When
|
||||
@racket[wait?] is @racket[#t], the callback is called only after the window has
|
||||
been closed. Its return value is ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
Each open editor has an internal number. That number is shown in the window
|
||||
title and is also used to distinguish stored window geometries. Numbers of
|
||||
closed editor windows are reused.
|
||||
The standard File menu does not contain the @onscreen{Exit} or
|
||||
@onscreen{Quit} command. Closing an editor window closes only that window.

||||

@section{Frame callback lifecycle}
|
||||
|
||||
The procedure supplied with @racket[#:frame-cb] is called as
|
||||
@racket[(frame-cb call-time frame)]. Its return value is ignored. The
|
||||
@racket[call-time] argument has the following meanings.
|
||||
|
||||
@itemlist[
|
||||
@item{@racket['before-show] is called after the frame has been fully created,
|
||||
positioned, resized, numbered, and supplied with the callback, but before
|
||||
@racket[show] is called. This is the preferred point for changes that
|
||||
should already be visible when the window first appears, such as changing
|
||||
the title.}
|
||||
@item{@racket['after-show] is called immediately after @racket[show] has been
|
||||
called. It can be used for actions that require a shown frame.}
|
||||
@item{@racket['wait-for-close] is called only when @racket[#:wait? #t] is in
|
||||
effect, immediately before @racket[rkdt] starts waiting for the frame to
|
||||
close.}
|
||||
@item{@racket['on-close] is called while the frame's close event is being
|
||||
handled. At that point its geometry has been stored, its internal number
|
||||
has been released for reuse, and the close semaphore has been posted.}
|
||||
]
|
||||
|
||||
Thus, without waiting, the normal lifecycle is
|
||||
@racket['before-show], @racket['after-show], and eventually
|
||||
@racket['on-close]. With @racket[#:wait? #t], @racket['wait-for-close] occurs
|
||||
between @racket['after-show] and @racket['on-close].

@section{Window behavior}
|
||||
|
||||
The editor uses Racket's standard editor menus, except that the standard
|
||||
@onscreen{Exit} or @onscreen{Quit} command is not added to the File menu.
|
||||
Closing an editor window closes only that window and releases its internal
|
||||
window number for reuse by a later editor window.
