A slew of minor changes:
  • Improved drawing, so a URLView item will draw at exactly the same height as a BStringView with the same frame. Also, the underlining of the text could be a pixel or two off in previous versions; no more. Thanks to YNOP for pointing this out.
  • Added a SetURL() function (to set the text, you can use SetText(), as with a normal BStringView). Thanks to YNOP for the suggestion.
  • Added a SetEnabled() function to disable the link. Also added a corresponding IsEnabled() function. Thanks to YNOP for the suggestion. Any URLViews with URLs that are not recognized will be disabled by default.
  • Changed the way e-mail links are handled a bit. You can still pass "mailto:email@server.com" to specify the link as an e-mail link, but now anything with an @ sign in it and no other protocol will be treated as an e-mail address. In other words, "bkakes@tallhill.com" is now treated as an e-mail address, but it is still possible to define "http://username:password@www.mysite.com" if desired. This makes defining e-mail links easier and more intuitive.
  • Added a SetDisabledColor() function to set the link's color when disabled.
  • Added SetColor(uchar red, uchar green, uchar blue, uchar alpha) for all SetColor() functions for convenience and to behave more like a standard BView.
  • Switched to using bounding boxes to determine if the cursor is over the URL text, which provides more accuracy (previous versions could occasionally be a pixel or two off).
  • Made all public functions virtual.

Made URLView draw according to BStringView's SetAlignment() function. Earlier, the view was always drawn left-justified. Thanks to Thomas for pointing out this bug.

This version fixes a few minor bugs with URLView 2.0. This new version also fixes a minor bug with 2.01, which was posted a few hours ago.

Thanks to Daniel Cachapa for finding the bug in 2.01.

Notable features new in version 2.0:
  • Supports HTTP (including "file://"), e-mail, and FTP links. Each will open in the application designated to handle those links. When a URLView link is clicked on, it does a query of the operating system for the correct program to use, so any changes made to the user's "preferred application" choice will be instantly reflected in URLView.
  • Supports drag-and-drop, although it can be disabled if desired. If a link is dragged into a standard TextView, it will copy the URL or e-mail address there. If a link is dragged to Tracker, it will create either a bookmark (for web and FTP links) or a person file (for e-mail links). Furthermore, the developer can specify additional attributes to be added to the new file. So a simple e-mail link can now be a full business card.
  • Supports hovering, where the link will be highlighted when the mouse cursor is over it. Like the other features, this can be turned off if desired.
  • Supports right-click popup menus, from which the user can choose to open the link or copy the URL/e-mail address to the system clipboard.

Thanks to members of BeDevCity, especially cell, for their testing and ideas.

First release. Only tested on x86, but should work on PPC in theory. All feedback is appreciated.
