CHRSAW( ) Function

Determines whether or not a character is present in the keyboard buffer.

CHRSAW([nSeconds])

Return Values

Logical

Parameters

  • nSeconds
    Specifies the time in seconds that CHRSAW( ) waits before checking the keyboard buffer. The keyboard buffer is checked immediately if you omit nSeconds.

    Including nSeconds lets you use CHRSAW( ) for a variety of timed activities. For example, your program can close an application if a key hasn't been pressed for a specific number of seconds.

Remarks

CHRSAW( ) returns True (.T.) if a character is present in the keyboard buffer, and False (.F.) if not. CHRSAW( ) doesn't affect the keyboard buffer contents.

Example

In the following example, the system displays a window containing input fields created with @ ... GET commands, and waits 5 seconds for keyboard input. If a key isn't pressed in this time period, CHRSAW( ) returns False (.F.) and the program terminates.

SET TALK OFF
DEFINE WINDOW wEnter FROM 7,10 to 13,70 PANEL
ACTIVATE WINDOW wEnter
@ 1,3 SAY 'Customer: '   GET gcCustomer  DEFAULT SPACE(40)
@ 3,3 SAY 'Address:  '   GET gcAddress  DEFAULT SPACE(40)
WAIT WINDOW 'Waiting for input' NOWAIT
IF NOT CHRSAW(5)   
   DEACTIVATE WINDOW wEnter
   CLEAR GETS
ELSE
   READ
   DEACTIVATE WINDOW wEnter
