[Gnumed-devel] test-area/sjtan

[syan tan]

there is a first draft of a configurable edit area in 
test-area/sjtan/gmEditArea2.py , and gmBrowse.py  ; the setup is 
described in the pseudo-sh script,  editAreaTest.sh
the functions are:

   add( widgetName, widgetType, weighting,  newLine , defaultFunction 
)  :-    this creates a new widget on the current line. if newLine ==1 , 
this is the last widget
                                                                       
                                                       for the line. 
The defaultFunction will give a starting value in the widget.
   ddl(name,  "create ...")   - this associates an entity with a  sql   
table or view creation.
   map ( widgetName,  "table.field")   -          maps the table.field 
or view.field that will store or update the widget.

   ref ( name1, name2)  -   specifies that there is a reference between 
name1 to name2 ( e.g.  name2 is the parent table for the name1 the child 
table )

   browse(  [  ("table.field", width),  ("table.field", width ),  ( 
"table.field", width) ] )   sets the single browse view for this editarea.

    ext_ref ( name1, name2):   sets an external reference id from table 
name1 to  another name2. Name2 is currently only one, and is really the
container for the target table/entity  e.g.   Patient  for   prescription

    setExtRef( name)  :  sets the external reference name. (only one 
currently) e.g.  patient or identity

   target( name ) :  sets the target table; this determines which table 
to begin a save or update on, and references are followed from this 
table. Also determines
                     which table is the main table in the browse view, 
and the primary key of the browse view is mapped to target's primary key.

   finish()  --  builds the previously defined EditArea ,  with a 
EditArea using comboboxes as auto text selection. , buttons for update 
or save,
and a ListCtrl for editing and browsing.  

The prescriptions test case is usable, and will let drugs be selected 
using the drug_class , generic_drug_name and link_product_drug   tables 
from drugref ;
it stores prescriptions in a prescription table.

Comments,  correcting and writing the configuration for the other use 
cases,  or  re-implementation,  please.
