CEdit::FmtLines
Call this function to set the inclusion of soft line-break characters on or off within a multiple-line edit control.
BOOL FmtLines(
BOOL bAddEOL
);
Parameters
- bAddEOL
Specifies whether soft line-break characters are to be inserted. A value of TRUE inserts the characters; a value of FALSE removes them.
Return Value
Nonzero if any formatting occurs; otherwise 0.
Remarks
A soft line break consists of two carriage returns and a linefeed inserted at the end of a line that is broken because of word wrapping. A hard line break consists of one carriage return and a linefeed. Lines that end with a hard line break are not affected by FmtLines.
Windows will only respond if the CEdit object is a multiple-line edit control.
FmtLines only affects the buffer returned by GetHandle and the text returned by WM_GETTEXT. It has no impact on the display of the text within the edit control.
For more information, see EM_FMTLINES in the Windows SDK.
Example
CString strText;
// Add soft line-break breaks.
m_myEdit.FmtLines(TRUE);
// Dump the text of the edit control.
m_myEdit.GetWindowText(strText);
AFXDUMP(strText);
// Remove soft line-break breaks.
m_myEdit.FmtLines(FALSE);
