Edit_GetFileLine macro (commctrl.h)

Gets the text of the specified file (or logical) line (text wrap delimiters are ignored). You can use this macro or send the EM_GETFILELINE message explicitly.

Syntax

void Edit_GetFileLine(
   hwndCtl,
   lineNumber,
   textBuffer
);

Parameters

hwndCtl

A handle to the edit control.

lineNumber

The logical line number.

textBuffer

The buffer that receives the text.

Return value

None

Remarks

This macro and corresponding message do not recognize text wrapping (visible lines) and, instead, recognize file (logical) lines with an end-of-line delimiter. When text wrap is turned off, visible lines are equivalent to file lines.

The EM_LINEFROMCHAR, EM_LINEINDEX, EM_LINELENGTH, EM_GETLINE, and EM_GETLINECOUNT messages recognize visible line text wrapping and provide information for the line of text up to the wrapping line break. (Each subsequent line is delimited by the next text wrap break.)
