Properties
curSetting
Our current setting. This is an arbitrary string value. The value initially assigned here is our initial setting; we’ll update this whenever we’re set to another setting.
okaySetToMsgProp
our message property for acknowledging a new setting
setToInvalidMsgProp
our message property for an invalid setting
Methods
canonicalizeSetting (val)
Canonicalize a proposed setting. This ensures that the setting is in a specific primary format when there are superficially different ways of expressing the same value. For example, if the setting is numeric, this could do things like trim off leading zeros; for a text value, it could ensure the value is in the proper case.
dobjFor(Set)OVERRIDDEN
“set <self>” action
dobjFor(SetTo)OVERRIDDEN
“set <self> to <literal>” action
isValidSetting (val)
Is the given text a valid setting? Returns true if so, nil if not. This should not display any messages; simply indicate whether or not the setting is valid.
This is always called with the *canonical* value of the proposed new setting, as returned by canonicalizeSetting().
makeSetting (val)
Change our setting. This is always called with the canonical version of the new setting, as returned by canonicalizeSetting(). Subclasses can override this routine to apply any side effects of changing the value.
