This package provides a widget for the entering of a IP address.
-
::ipentry::ipentry pathName ? option value... ?
-
Creates a new IPv4 ipentry widget and configures it with the given options and
their values.
-
::ipentry::ipentry6 pathName ? option value... ?
-
Creates a new ipentry widget for the entry of an IPv6 address. All options
are the same as the IPv4 widget.
Each widget created with the command above supports the following methods:
-
pathName complete
-
Returns a boolean value. True indicates that the entry contains a
complete IP address, meaning all fields have a value. In some cases
IPv6 address are valid when fields are missing. You will need to do your
own validation to detect this.
-
pathName get
-
Returns the contents of the entry as a list consisting of 4 or 8 elements.
-
pathName insert iplist
-
IPv4
Takes a list of 4 elements and inserts one into each quad of the entry, in order.
All values in the list must be empty or integers. Values outside the range 0 to 255
are modified to be within the range.
IPv6
Takes a list of 8 elements and inserts one into each quad of the entry, in order.
All values in the list must be empty or 1 to 4 hex digits.
-
pathName icursor index
-
Sets the position of the widgets insertion cursor. Only integer values between
0 and 15 are valid for ipentry and 0 to 31 for ipentry6.
Setting the icursor will only have an effect if the widget
already has the input focus.
-
pathName configure option value...
-
Modifies the configuration of the widget. For options and
their meaning see the widget options section.
-
pathName cget option
-
Returns information about the current configuration of the widget, for
the specified option. For options and their meaning see the widget
options section.
