Hi Jose & Ignacio, Well if it is a holiday in Spain, I think you should do that! I can compile in demo mode from my laptop and use it in the IDE which will rescue my day. I can confirm that I have used the .....Harbour32Setup4.exe file. My plan at some stage will be to Uninstall Xailer on my PC ...

ChrisGillard

Hi Ignacio, Thank you both for helping with this. I have installed Xailer5 on my laptop as a Demo and I am doing better for now. I am happy to have the program run under the IDE at the moment as its me that needs to use it to get a job done for a Customer. In UK it is 'Easter Friday' which is a 'Ban...

Hi Jose, I did what you say ... Deleted hb32 in \xailer5 Removed all reference to mingw in Environment vars Install from your link Xailer Tools paths look OK. Environment paths .... new c:\xailer5\hb32\comp\mingw\bin at top ... as it should be, probably. Still get error ... Now.png The path in the e...

Hi Jose,

Thank you very much for the very quick reply.

I will examine my pathing and reinstall your Harbour distro.

I will report back in a couple of hours.

Thank you.

Hi, I am using my Xailer 5.03 for the first time for maybe 3 or 4 months .... none of my projects will compile with the following error to the screen. I have deleted all project objs and doing a BUILD This project is a test and is new with one form and Hello World label ... this is the error I have ...

ChrisGillard

Hi Ignacio, Thanks for continuing with this. I was fairly aware about that no interaction was possible. The applications I want to run are things like night time 'batch jobs', written in Harbour that do not interact with the screen but just do various 'housekeeping' jobs and when finished they just ...

ChrisGillard

Oh dear, thats not what I wanted to hear. Is this something to do with how Xailer has implemented the service code ? There are some other 3rd party Task Schedulers that do run as services and can launch exes plus of course Windows own Task Scheduler. I can see that Microsoft would want it to be diff...

ChrisGillard

Hi, I have a Xailer TaskScheduler program that is very successful and I am trying converting it to run as a service. All is going well and it appears to run as a service 95% OK, except for my Timer function when it wants to actually execute the task .... calling my RunNow() method. My problem is how...

ChrisGillard

Hi, Basically I have a timer that works. 1. I did not have a CREATE() method on my 'created in code' Timer 2. I am not sure what oPARENT to use for the Timer? Sender does not work, I have left it blank and it works. I am happy with this for the moment and I can continue with this. Your 'folder chang...

ChrisGillard

Hi Jose, Yes, I have several applications that monitor folders for files .... so your technique would be very useful to me. Thank you. At the moment I am just trying to do a simple example at the moment bit It is not working for me at all? ..... I am just trying to use a timer to write a Logfile() l...

ChrisGillard

Hi Jose, Thanks very much for jumping in here. Thank you for the tip of changing directories. My project is to make an existing Xailer 'email SMTP sending server' which monitors a folder for new files that contain all of an emails details of To, From, Subject, Body etc and creates an email and sends...

ChrisGillard

I have it working and I think I know the problem.... My problem was that from within the service it appears that certain things cant be done including interacting with the screen .... LogDisplay() and Beep() certainly dont appear to work. I had read that services should not interact with the screen...

ChrisGillard

Hi, I am very interested in TWinService and so also WinService sample program. I have compiled and run the WinService sample and it gives me the four buttons which all seem to do what they should. I have taken a copy of the folder and want to make it try to make the service actually do something by ...

ChrisGillard

Hi Ignacio, Thank you for your comprehensive reply. Its the second example, the images are high resolution photos in .JPG files. I need to add the text to them and then re-save them at the same resolution. I will work on your second example and see how far I get and then ask for more help. I'm glad ...

ChrisGillard

Hi, I would like to take some existing JPEG image files and overlay the filename and a 'Title' as text on them. Can I do this using GDI, just by displaying the file on some sort of canvas, drawing some text on that canvas and then saving the image back to a file? I see we have TImage and TImageEdito...

ChrisGillard

Hi Ignacio,

Hi, I am wanting to use a Folder Explorer TreeView to embed in a form .... very similar to the one in Xailer Dbf Explorer. I am trying to not use a Folder Dialog or an ActiveX. I have looked at the xailer\samples but cannot see anything similar to use as a start. Does anyone have a piece of code tha...

ChrisGillard

Hi Ignacio,

Thank you for all for a great product, your hard work and patient support this year.

I'm hoping to do more Xailer in 2017 so more requests for help!

Have a good break and come back refreshed.

Cheers

Hi Ignacio,

Sounds like a move to CardBox class may be the way to go with Xailer 5.

Thank you for your help with these menus ... they are usable and I will move on to the next building blocks I need.

Chris

ChrisGillard

Hi Ignacio, Just a post to show progress on my ScreenPrompt and menus classes and request one improvement to TLabelEx maybe. My request is more control the alignment of the text in the TLabelEx control to improve the appearance. For the titles I might like a CENTER option, standard would be LEFT and...

ChrisGillard

Hi, To save time I think my question is quite simply ... Why does my redefined WMKeyDown method not override the TBevel or TStdControl own WMKeydown method particularly as I do NOT call ::Super:WMKeyDown() in my own method. Thats my basic problem ... I want to overide the TBevel or TStdControl built...

ChrisGillard

Hi, My ScreenPrompt class inherited from TLabelEx and my PromptBar class inherited from TBevel are working well and have mouse & keyboard 'action key' character support. I now have adapted by PromptBar class to display its ScreenPrompt objects in a vertical menu format. Again this works well for...

ChrisGillard

More info on trying to capture the Cursor/Arrow keys. When I had a TBevel somewhere on the form ........... The Form onKeyDown DID NOT not appear to see the Cursor/Arrrow keys When I removed the TBevel and had an empty form ... The Form onKeyDown DID appear to see the Cursor/Arrrow keys Is that how ...

ChrisGillard

Thank you both .... trapping ALT + is very interesting to me at the moment.

Next, I am trying to trap the 'cursor' keys UpArrow, DownArrow etc.

I dont see them in the Form KeyDown method, so I am hoping there is somewhere else?

Thanks

Chris

ChrisGillard

Hi, Simple question of a function to count the number of occurrences of a string within another string. In xHarbour I might use Occurs() but does not seem to exist in Xailer/Harbour. Yes, I could write something in a couple of lines but like to use the 'official' function where possible. What do you...
