insert_buffer and linebreaks

keithmberard · ‎Mar 19, 2007

Hello all,

I am trying to add a convenience button for our editors that puts the contents of a XUI list into the copy buffer so that they can paste the contents into another application.

To do this, I am using the insert_buffer() function.

Unfortunately, any time I try to put in a line break, I get the following error:

com.arbortext.epic.AclException: Error parsing command string:
insert_buffer("
",0)
[A11364] Unterminated quoted string: "

at com.arbortext.epic.Acl.doExecute(Native Method)
at com.arbortext.epic.Acl.execute(Acl.java:128)
at com.mcg.epic.xui.XUIGuidelineSearchResultDialog.handleEvent(Unknown Source)

Is there any way to get line breaks into the copy buffer programatically? My current attempt is simply adding in a \n character to the string.

thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Where are the users pasting this list?Is the return
character respected in notepad but not your XML doc? If so,theparent
node may not bedeclared as asis.

I see that you're on the Java side. Have you tried the
equivalent at the ACL command line?

insert_buffer("Hello\nWorld!", 1, "default",
0)

The above pasted in docbook is inserted on one line but on
two lines in notepad.

Yeah, notepad, email... any basic text.

What version of Epic are you using? We're still on 5.1 here, and the docs say:

insert_buffer(string, sgml[, buffer]);

Your example seems to use 4 arguments (which does not seem to be valid on the
5.1 command line)

If I do try the cmd-line in 5.1, however, using the required 2 arguments, my paste still does not show a newline. (in notepad)

eg: insert_buffer("test\nnewline",0)

I'm using 5.2 M010.

The 4th arg determines if you're appending or replacing the
paste buffer contents. From the help file:

<help>

insert_buffer

<tt>insert_buffer</tt>(string, sgml[, buffer[, append]]);

This function inserts the string value of the
expression <tt>string</tt> into the paste buffer
named by <tt>buffer</tt>, or if not specified, the
default paste buffer. If the value of <tt>sgml</tt>
is not <tt>0</tt>, then the string is interpreted as an
SGML-coded string. Otherwise no markup is recognized. If the value of
<tt>append</tt> is not specified or is non-zero, then
the string is appended to the buffer. Otherwise, the string replaces the
contents of the buffer.

</help>

I also tried in the only other easily accessible version of
Epic, 4.4K.That one's insert_buffer signature matches 5.1. I used
insert_buffer("Hello\nWorld!", 0, "default") and insert_buffer("Hello\nWorld!",
1, "default"). Both respected the new line character in an ascii doc and within
DocBook's <literallayout>. Pasting within DocBook's <para> also
behaved as expected: "Hello World!" inserted on one line.

Bizarre.

Ok, I tested that command in 4.2.1, 5.1R, and 5.2.

Only 5.2 actually put in a newline on paste.

But since you say it works for 4.4K, it's evidently not a newer-version feature.

Very strange.

Can you use chr(13) rather than \n?

Paul,

chr(13) (or technically its java equivalent) worked.

Thanks,

Hi Keith--

You might want to try several levels of meta-escaping, i.e.
extra backslashes. They get consumed at various levels of processing, so
sometimes you need a seemingly preposterous number of backslashes to get the
desired effect.

Try " \\n ", " \\n ",
etc.

Ok,

So to verify that I'm not going nuts, I removed the code that was pulling from my list, and did a direct loop to see what happens. I tried a bunch of different combinations of chr(13) and escaped n to no avail.

Here's my code:

Acl.execute("delete_buffer");

char nl = 13;
String newLine = Character.toString(nl);

for (int j=0; j<10; j++) {
Acl.execute("insert_buffer(\" + newLine + "\",0)");

Acl.execute("insert_buffer(\" + newLine + newLine + "\",0)");
Acl.execute("insert_buffer(\"\n\",0)");
Acl.execute("insert_buffer(\"\\n\",0)");

Acl.execute("insert_buffer(\"TEST TEXT\",0)");
}

This yields:

TEST TEXT TEST TEXT TEST TEXT TEST TEXT TEST TEXT
TEST TEXT TEST TEXT TEST TEXT TEST TEXT TEST TEXT

I have also tried putting in the newlines and \n's directly in the string:

String outString = ";

for (int j=0; j<10; j++) {
outString += newLine;
outString += newLine;

outString += "\n";
outString += "\\n";
outString += "TEST TEXT";
}

Acl.execute
("insert_buffer(\" + outString + "\",0)");

This yields:

TEST TEXT TEST TEXT TEST TEXT TEST TEXT TEST TEXT TEST TEXT
TEST TEXT TEST TEXT TEST TEXT TEST TEXT

The results differ slightly, but each time the newlines seem to be replaced with a space. Also, the buffer is auto-wrapping the text at somewhere around 75 characters.

Again, this is in Epic 5.1R... so strange.

Hi Keith--

Are you pasting into an element that's configured to
preserve whitespace (in the DCF)? If not, then Epic will generally render
according to HTML rules, i.e. collapse multiple whitespace characters into a
single space.

You can test this by pasting, and then selecting the
element containing the pasted text and selecting Edit->Edit Selection as XML
Source to see whether the newlines are actually in the source or
not.

Also, I think you may have given up too quickly in trying
escaped n. Try 4, 5, or even 6 backslashes. I think they are getting consumed at
multiple levels (e.g. java eats one set, then ACL eats
another).

Clay,

I'm actually pasting into a text editor (or email, word, etc)

I'll try again with more slashes, though I know at one point it started to complain when there were too many.

Still, when I tried this with
5.2 (at least from the command line) it seemed to work fine, so perhaps it's confined to 5.1.

OH, I see. I misunderstood what you were
doing.

Since you're in Java already anyway, you might try using
Java's idea of the clipboard instead of Epic's. Here's a function we use to copy
just the text from the selected markup for pasting into some external
application:

function copyAsText() {
var text =
Application.activeDocument.textSelection;
// use Java to access the
system clipboard
var copytext = new
Packages.java.awt.datatransfer.StringSelection(text);
var clipboard =
new
Packages.java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard();

clipboard.setContents(copytext,copytext);
}

(I'm doing this in Javascript, so if you're in Java you'll
want to add variable types and remove the Packages metapackage on the java class
names.)

Wow,

I don't know why I didn't even think of doing it that way, but that worked great. I'm usually the first one to try to find alternatives to ACL calls, but for some reason using the actual java core API didn't occur to me.

Awesome suggestion, thanks,

So to verify that I'm not going nuts, I removed the

The results differ slightly, but
each time the newlines seem to be replaced with a space. Also, the
buffer is auto-wrapping the text at somewhere around 75
characters.

Again, this is in Epic 5.1R... so strange.

Hi
Keith--

You
might want to try several levels of meta-escaping, i.e. extra
backslashes. They get consumed at various levels of processing, so
sometimes you need a seemingly preposterous number of backslashes to get
the desired effect.

Try
" \\n ", " \\n ", etc.

insert_buffer and linebreaks

Grr... I may have spoke too soon. I'll keep you
posted if I figure out what's going on.

Thanks for the
suggestion though.
