Hello all of you,
I've got a little RISCOS_LIB C problem. I don't know how to make a
nested menu structure in C. If you do, for instance, the following:
menu temp[5];
temp[0] = menu_new("Main menu",">Info,Why,Quit");
temp[1] = menu_new("Why","Can't,I,Do,This?");
menu_submenu(temp[0],2,temp[1]);
temp[2] = menu_new("I","Do,This?");
menu_submenu(temp[1],2,temp[2]);
temp[3] = menu_new("Do","This?");
menu_submenu(temp[1],3,temp[3]);
return temp[0];
In this example I want to create this menu structure:
Main Menu first level second level
---------
Info -> InfoProg box
Why -> Why
Quit ---
Can't
I -> I
--
Do
This?
Do -> Do
This? --
This?
This doesn't work. The temp[[3] submenu disappears completely, without
any warning or error message. Why? Maybe this is not a 'strict hierarchy'
about which the manual talks. But what is a strict hierarchy exactly and
if it is not possible to use menu_submenu to create the above menu
structure, how could you make such a menu structure ?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Greetings,
Walther
