Dragobject (files) FROM VO

Hi all, since the comp.lang... group is rather dead and flooded with some Thai spam I need to bother you here: I'm struggling for days with dragging a filename from my application to File Explorer. Like in the SDK I use CF_HDROP. I have copied the whole code from the SDK to track down every single ...

Transform() of simple numeric values

<t>Robert,<br/> <br/> it does make sense if you have a generic serializer (our is vaguely based on the XMLParser class of Anthony Smith) whose results may be passed to a SQL statement. According to the comments there seem to be restrictions in some dialects regarding separators in the string ...

Transform() of simple numeric values

<r>Please consider it (almost) solved, I found the problem: Hidden deeply in our code there was a new <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s> SetThousandSep(Asc(""))<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE> which caused the problem.<br/> <br/> But this raises another little question: Speaking with the developer I understand that he ...

Transform() of simple numeric values

<r>Playing around with the settings didn't change anything, but maybe it helps to know that <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>transform( fValue, "999,999" )<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE> <B><s>[b]</s>produces a chr(0) instead of the commas<e>[/b]</e></B>. If fValue<=999 there is no comma and the result is ok. If it is ...

Transform() of simple numeric values

<r>Probably I got something wrong, but can anyone please explain this:<br/> <br/> <ATTACHMENT filename="transform.png" index="0"><s>[attachment=0]</s>transform.png<e>[/attachment]</e></ATTACHMENT> Lots of code from VO which format numeric values suddenly produce inexplicable results because they ...

Dialog size behaviour: VO dialog appears narrower (only width!) in X#

Hi Karl,

perfect: that does the trick!

Now the behaviour is 1:1 to VO. But what kind of magic is this?

Dialog size behaviour: VO dialog appears narrower (only width!) in X#

<r>Hi Chris,<br/> <br/> here is a simple example. The following code is exactly the same in VO and XSharp: <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>FUNCTION DialogWindowTest AS VOID<br/> LOCAL oDlg AS MyDialogWindow<br/> LOCAL oOwner AS OBJECT<br/> <br/> oOwner := GetObjectByHandle(GetActiveWindow())<br/> DO WHILE ...

Dialog size behaviour: VO dialog appears narrower (only width!) in X#

<r>I see, and of course I agree with the concept. However, I would expect that a window with fixed constants as dimension, passed by the Size assign, would appear identical regardless if shown by VO or X# code <B><s>[b]</s>on the same machine with the same resolution<e>[/b]</e></B> (which is, BTW ...

Dialog size behaviour: VO dialog appears narrower (only width!) in X#

Leonid,

we do all of this (in VO) for all the dynamic controls. But in VO it is enough to set the calculated size (taking system menu etc. into account) via the "Size" ASSIGN. In X# there seems to be a difference which I haven't understood fully yet...
