Delphi
function pdfCopyChoiceValues(const IPDF: PPDF; Source, Dest: Cardinal; Share: LongBool): LongBool; stdcall;
Purpose. Copy a Choice-type form field's (/Ch, listbox/combobox) /Opt export-value list from one field to another — useful for keeping several fields with identical option lists in sync without redefining the list per field.
Parameters.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
IPDF | Document handle. |
Source, Dest | Field handles. |
Share | Whether the two fields should reference the shared /Opt array object (True) or receive independent copies (False) — not independently re-verified in this chapter beyond confirming the parameter reaches CopyChoiceValues. |
Return value. True if both fields resolve and are Choice-type; False otherwise.
