HBasic uses QT to access the databases.  With the Database drivers we
are trying to create a component that can be used both with QT and in the
future, GTK.

I was just going out to the gambas site this morning looking to build a 
package for 0.54 and discovered 0.55 was already posted.  So I skipped a 
version.  Database manager is really nifty by the way!

http://www.kudla.org/?wl_mode=more&wl_eid=11

No 9.1 packages yet as I haven't gotten to a 9.1 box yet.  Maybe this 
afternoon or evening.  This may be my last 9.0 package since I had to write 
my first patch to get rid of a couple Qt 3.1 specific lines and I assume 
there'll be more coming....

Hi everybody,

Gambas 0.55 is out !

The Gambas Database Manager is now usable, but the MySQL database driver is 
not completely terminated. There are two new controls: the TableView, used 
for displaying large data sheets, and the Splitter, a moveable control 
separator. Last, but not least, you get a Polish translation.

If you want to translate Gambas, tell me before starting the translation, so 
that I check that nobody else do the same job !

You access the Database Manager from a new "Tools" menu in the IDE. OK, there 
is only one tool at the moment...

You have a Database programming example in the examples directory. This 
example does not cover everything.

I will document the database component when its interface will be stable. At 
the moment, some internal changes are planned, so you must be patient.

Maybe I will start to develop a network component. If someone has a lot of 
experience in developing servers and client, he can contact me ! I would like 
to do a simple and powerful component that allow you to make a server in a 
few code lines :-)

isFullScreen is new in 3.1.  Comment out that line and the previous one and 
it'll build under 3.0.  This is what I alluded to in my last post (and what I 
had to patch to build my Mdk 9.0 rpm.)

In particular, when editing a mysql table, if you make an error causing it to 
not save the table (e.g. making a string of length >255) it drops the table, 
gives you the error, drops you back into the editor but then never lets you 
save it again because the table no longer exists.  If you create a dummy 
table just for it to delete, it still fails with the message "<name of first 
field> already exists".  Only by renaming all the fields can you then save 
successfully.

Is there a bugzilla for this kind of bug report or is this the place?  I 
haven't actually messed with the gambas-database-manager source but I might 
just be able to fix it myself and submit a patch.

I have a problem with Window.State (i.e. with the inside QT stuff)

Window.State = Window.Minimized works, but once minimized, the window stays in 
that mode, whatever I put in Window.State, and despite that, Qt returns the 
state I wanted to fix !

Example:

DIM hForm AS Form

hForm.Show
WAIT 5
hForm.State = Window.Minimized
WAIT 5
hForm.State = Window.Normal ' Nothing happened
WAIT
PRINT hForm.State = Window.Normal
=> TRUE !

Can anyone test this code on its machine with the last version of gambas and 
tell me what happens ? I upgraded my Madnrake 9.0 to KDE 3.1, and some 
stranges things occurs in KDE since (Konqueror freezes when I open a tar.gz 
with ark from it, and this Window.State problem). Maybe this is a KDE window 
manager problem, or maybe it is a qt problem.

Thanks in advance.

It seems that on Mandrake gcc 3.2 accept C++ syntax while compiling C, and not 
older versions !

In other words, try to exchange the line 298 and the line 297 in the main.c 
file of src/lib/db/mysql, it should work.

See my answer to Charlie below.

Try to exchange the line 298 and the line 297 in the main.c 
file of src/lib/db/mysql, it should work.

Possible, yeah, I think so.  Easy, not so much.  If nothing else you can 
probably use a background helper app like telnet or nc to make your socket 
connections, but Benoit just said he may start working on a network component 
so you can do it the right way.

Rob,
	I hope Benoit gets that network component out soon because that will be
real handy with my chat program I'm making I have it all figured out i
just need  a way to make a server and client for it and it should be all
go.

It is (alas) exactly the same problem.

Replace:

  char *name = GB.ToZeroString(ARG(name));

  if (DB_CheckName(name, "table"))
    return;

  CTABLE *table = get_table(THIS, name, FALSE);

by:

  CTABLE *table;
  char *name = GB.ToZeroString(ARG(name));

  if (DB_CheckName(name, "table"))
    return;

  table = get_table(THIS, name, FALSE);

And it should work.

Strange, the date of the mail is correct on my box ?? (22:48)
I go to the date/time configuration of KDE, and, strange, the time zone was 
not configured. I have selected 'Paris'. We will see if it changes anything.

Message-ID: <200305061147.01502.gambas@...2...>

There are problems with SuSE, RedHAT, QT 3.0 and gcc !

First, gcc 3.2 seems to accept C++ syntax in C code.

I wrote such code without notice, and so gambas does not compile on systems 
with an older gcc (SuSE 7.2, for example)

Jochen Georges try to compile it, and I will say him what lines to change each 
time he encounters a problem. When every C++ syntax is removed, I will be 
able to make a new version of gambas to correct that.

Secondly, there is a problem with QT 3.0, because I used new functions of QT 
3.1 without notice, so it does not compile. I will add a test on the QT 
version for such a code.

Last, the problem on RedHat 8.1 is worse, at it seems that a library is 
missing in the options passed to the linker. This library was not needed in 
RedHat 8.0 - They like changing everything at each version at RedHat.

The problem is how to find this library, as I have only a RedHat 8.0 at home 
and not a 8.1. I investigate... Be patient...

I think I will make a version when all these problems will be solved...

Regards,

Your _new() function is the constructor of your class, not of the Form class. 
So when you do hForm = new Form, this constructor is never called.

You should do hForm = new MyClass (if the file you sent is MyClass.class)
and put the form in a non-static variable of MyClass, and the code of Main() 
in _new().

Hmm... I wanted to say RedHat 9, not 8.1.

Could you edit the 'configure.in' file, and modify the line 378 this way:

  3\.* ) CXX_LIB=-lgcc_s -lstdc++

Then, open a terminal on the package directory, and type the following:

~/gambas-0.55 $ ./reconf
...
~/gambas-0.55 $ ./configure
...
~/gambas-0.55 $ make
...
~/gambas-0.55 $ su -c "make install"
...


Tell me the result !

Argh ! You must type this line instead:

   3\.* ) CXX_LIB="-lgcc_s -lstdc++"

?????
if i use hForm in the constructor too, it must be global.
to be global it must be static ???

can you give me a code example?

sorry, i have to learn a lot.

thanks a lot

hi benoit,
in /opt/gambas-0.55/src/lib/db/mysql/main.c i did not find the 
lines.

I dunno if anybody's noticed this or not....

when you embed a form-in-a-form....

I dunno if this is normal or not, but I'd like some people

Hello everybody,

I?m really new in linux and of course gambas too.
So I have a stupid question here and hope someone will answer it.

How do I upgrade my gambas 0.54 ?
Just install gambas 0.55 to replace 0.54 or I have to uninstall the old one 
first.
If have to uninstall, how do I do it ?

Hi Jochen,

It is not necessary to send your mails both to the mailing-list and to me, 
because I -am- on the mailing-list !

Remove the line with isFullScreen() and the previous one. This is code that 
works only with qt 3.1. (There was many posts about that here, didn't you see 
them ?)

Anyway, the Window.State property does not work on my Mandrake box (qt 3.1), 
on my SuSE box (qt 3.0), with KDE window manager or ICE window-manager. It 
seems to be a bug in qt not yet corrected.

You can uninstall a software from source package by doing "make uninstall", 
but it is not necessary, nor advisable (GNU guys dixit).

Just compile the new package, and the "make install" command will reinstall 
the software on top of the other.

This is not a problem because all gambas files are stored on one sole 
directory (/opt/gambas by default), and because there is no registry on Unix 
like who you know.

If you prefer, you can "rm -rf /opt/gambas" before reinstalling.

Try to add the following libraries (one by one to find which contains the 
missing symbol).

CXX_LIB="-lgcc_s -lresolv"

CXX_LIB="-lgcc_s -lpthread"

I find them by compiling a void project with KDevelop, as I think that 
KDevelop projects should compile on RedHat.

If you want, you can do the same thing, i.e. creating a new KDE project on 
KDevelop and compile it, to get the list of libraries passed to the linker. 
Maybe this list will be different on RedHat than on Mandrake, as autoconf 
tools analyze the underlying system.

Just install the new package to replace the old one.

As all gambas files are installed under one directory (/opt/gambas) by 
default, and as there is no registry on Linux :-), this is not a problem.

If you are parano?d, you can "rm -rf /opt/gambas" before reinstalling.

Hi,
I'm here again. First of all, I'm not sure I've well understood what to
do with your suggestion.
What I've done is to edit the configure.in file changing the line:
3\.* ) CXX_LIB="-lgcc_s -lstdc++" (already amended as per previous
message) with one proposed in your message, so to have:
3\.* ) CXX_LIB="-lgcc_s -lresolv" or
3\.* ) CXX_LIB="-lgcc_s -lpthread"

If this was correct thing to do, well both changes produced the same
error as before during installation.
If I've to try something else, please advise.

Thanks for now,
Carlo

I still have a problem. 

I replaced the "CXX_LIB" directive in the Makefile
to include the indicated libraries 

CXX_LIB = -lgcc_s -lresolv -lpthread -lstdc++

And *still* get the following (excertp from the "make install"): 

Creating the library info files...
/opt/gambas/lib/info/gb.info

Any other ideas?

I tried the fix as well and got the same results.  In Benoit's previous
email, he mentioned something about compiling a void project in kdevelop
in order to get the correct settings.  If I could get more info as to
what I am looking for, I will be glad to do so; or I could compile a
void project and email the files to you if that is what you wish.

Thanks.

I need only the list of libraries passed to the linker on a RedHat.

If you don't know where getting that, you see it at the end of the text in the 
"messages" window after having build the project completely in kdevelop.

Why do you use ListBox ? Don't ! :-)

You can program your own widget with a ScrollView and a lot of elbow grease.

Yeah, I ended up using a Qt HtmlView widget when I wrote a chat program using 
PerlQt.  It has a few peculiarities but is pretty cool, and looks as you 
would expect a chat program to look nowadays.  Haven't tried to do anything 
rich text like under Gambas but I guess it's inevitable sooner or later ;)

Let's suppose you have an opened connection on a database named hConn.

DIM hConn AS Connection
DIM sId AS STRING
DIM hResult AS Result

sId = "Pinocchio"

hResult = hConn.Find("Book", "Title = &1", sId)
' Or you can do:
' hResult = hConn.Exec("Select ID from Book where Title = &1", sId)

IF hResult.Available THEN
  MyTextBox.Text = hResult!ID
ENDIF

Message-ID: <3EBA9CBD.4060109@...131...>

Hello everybudy!

I was wondering if there is a way to make a Gambas program to iconify in 
the notification area of KDE when it is minimized, just like many KDE 
programs (i.e. KMix). Can anybody provide some code, please?

Also, is it possible to access raw devices (like /dev/ttyS0) just by 
OPENing them, in the style of good old QBasic? I assume I would have to 
be root for such an operation to succed, right?

Thank you in advance,

Benoit,
	So, what your telling me is that a listbox is something i shouldn't use
well I'm a newbie at programming and just out of curiosity what exactly
is a widget. Do you have anything on the site that could explain this to
me maybe?  I figured a listbox would work cause it seems simple but now
you got me thinking with this scroll view I'll try to modify my chat
program a little bit so I don't need a listbox but do you have any
web-sites that i could possibly learn about these widgets it would be
much appreciated.

If it's worth something, I've tried to add the library starting from

No way to do that, as I don't know how to do thath in KDE.

OPEN "/dev/ttyS0" FOR WRITE DIRECT AS #hFile

The DIRECT flag is used for unbuffered I/O => open() is used instead of 
fopen()

Salut Andrew,

sorry actually I'm out of the box, I shoot my SuSE 7.2 while tring to 
install the 0.55 and no time to set here up.
The only way, if you don't  want to add it to the C-Code, is to catch 
the given char in the Textbox.change event, store it in a string and 
give back as what you want a '?' for example.
But try it in a own project, because it will be not as trivial. Think of 
all the chars < 32 .

Charlie

You have two ways of doing that in Gambas:

1) You can create what you do in a form, and use the form as any control in 
your code.

Let's suppose your form is named FMyListBox.

In your FMyChat main form, you do:

PRIVATE $hMyListBox AS FMyListBox

PUBLIC SUB _new()

  $hMyListBox = NEW FMyListBox(ME)
  $hMyListBox.Move(10, 10, 100, 100)

END

You have an example of that in the IDE source code: the FSelector form is used 
as a control in many other forms, like FOpenProject

2) You can create a class that manage your list box.

Let's suppose this class is named CMyListBox. Its code is:

PRIVATE $hScrollView AS ScrollView

PUBLIC SUB _new(hParent AS Container)

  $hScrollView = NEW ScrollView(hParent)
  ...

END

You have an example of that in the IDE source code: there is a class named 
CCoolButton that implements the buttons of the welcome dialog, those who 
become blue when the mouse is over them.

I can't help you more, except by writing the code for you :-)

Maybe anyone more advance than you could write an example of that ?

The KeyPress event is for that.

FUNCTION xxxx_KeyPress(Ascii AS String, Code AS Integer, State AS Integer) AS 
Boolean

  Ascii -> Bad term. It is in fact the UTF-8 text associated with the key.
  It can contains many characters.

  Code -> The key code. Compare its value this way:
  
  IF Code = Key["Space"] THEN ... ' Test the space key

  State -> Mouse.Control + Mouse.Shift + Mouse.Alt

  RETURN TRUE -> To cancel the key event

END

Thank you both Benoit and Fabrice! You have well satisfied :) I was 
planning on extending a Caller ID program i wrote a while ago as a 
console app in free pascal. My idea is to keep it running on the system 
tray and have a new form popup whenever a call was made.

By the way, congratulations Benoit for this excelent RAD tool! I think 
it is something that GNU/Linux was missing.

Hello everybody,

There is an article about Gambas in the last issue if the japanese magazine 
"Linux magazine".

http://www.ascii.co.jp/linux/linuxmag/

They sent me the magazine, but I can't read japanese. So, I have no idea of 
what they wrote. I hope they don't flame it ! ;-)

I think I will make a press release page on the site !

Message-ID: <3EBC1DEF.2040705@...9...>

Salut,

after some day troubles, not only with gambas-0.55,
I stript off the brand new installation of qt-3.1.2 correctet the 3 
faultes in the code,
And gambas-0.55 ran on my old

SuSE 7.2 full updated, qt-3.0.5, KDE 2.2.2 , mysql 3.23.37

disabled KDE and pgsql.

Yes for qt-3.1.2 on this box I have troubles. But I will see later for 
that. I'm back now.

Now finally I have a running Database Manager, (powerfull you liked to 
say some times ago ,Beno?t).

The first thing I remarked, is the on my box the Debug Window stays 
allways on top, and the application behind him.

I had a look to the project I wrote for the http://www.theeasygambasdoku.de/
WithDB and could free all workarounds, but not the edit/update.
But I didn't searched far, nor read the last changes.

amicalement
Charlie

PS will see if I can have a feetback for these japanese article .

Well, I've found a solution for this problem:

Redhat 9 ships with qt library version 3.1.1.
After digging on the net with google I've found some hints that qt
libraries may cause this "unknown symbol" problem if they are built with
different compiler version than the program you try to build.
So I was going to compile the qt libraries myself but have found version
3.1.2 on redhat rawhide and after upgrading to this version gambas
finally completed its installation.

I don't know how safe is to use rawhide versions, but I can afford this
risk on my box.

Thanks for your time and best regards,
Carlo

Thanks for your hint, christ, you are my saviour ;-). I really didn't 
understand why this symbol were not defined. If it is really RedHat fault, I 
wonder WHO really uses RedHat to develop QT or KDE applications ? ;-)

Hi !

Here is gambas 0.56 :

There are a lot of fixes in the database driver and the interpreter. The 
debugging interface of the IDE has been redesigned : there is a new console 
window, where you can evaluate any expression at any time. 

Did you notice that Gambas package does not fit on a floppy disk anymore ? :-)

I noticed that the console window works strangely with QT 3.0, but I couldn't 
fix it.

Enjoy it, and good sunday !

Salut Jochen,

the output

(Using password: YES)

doesn't mean, the password is 'YES' , it means you have to use a password, ( in your case the password of root)

In your shell command you log in as user jochen without password so if you have passed a password to the gambas DB the login failed, isn't it.

Sorry Jochen,

give me a 2nd. chance. I mixed all up, and after a last tourn I trow it 
out, but it was wrong.

If you get (Using password YES) it means you used a password but there 
is no password to give.
And if you get (Using password NO) it means you used no password, but 
there is a password to give.

Sorry again
Charlie

password: YES)

Making the fool,

I got into a short test and saw.
(Using password: YES/NO) only will help you to find you mistake.
And shows you if a password was given or not.

Salut Beno?t,

on my

SuSE 7.2 full updated, qt-3.0.5, KDE 2.2.2 , mysql 3.23.37

disabled KDE and pgsql.

gambas-0.56 run .

The only thing is that we lost the variable list in the debug Watch-Window.

And the db.edit("Table","myKey = &1", sKey) don't work.

(copied to gambas-user in hopes of moving this thread over)

As it is right now, I don't actually think a program to convert VB projects to 
Gambas (at least the forms themselves) will be that hard, and for that matter 
the Gambas IDE itself is written in Gambas.  So if no one else writes some 
mechanism to fake auto-instantiation and project-wide scope, I probably will 
eventually, right around the time I try to convert my first bunch of 
client-written code over to Gambas.

I mean, yeah, so you can't write a Gambas program with zero lines of 
user-written code presently like you can in other languages, but does the 
term "alpha" mean anything to you?  I'll start worrying if this sort of 
feature isn't around in Gambas 1.1 or thereabouts ;)

Well, the question is: WHO really uses RedHat 9 (!!!! emphasis here !!!!)

Since RH9 is only about 3 weeks old, the answer (apparently) is not

On Gentoo with KDE 3.1, QT 3.1.0 I receive an error regarding the 'info'

If I comment out the info installation section it finishes the install
and runs ok (with the NVidia workaround and a segfault everytime I
exit).

Do I need the 'info' files? What do they do?

 Salut,

try to login on prompt#mysql
if you get the same message you have to start the mysql-Server (mysqld) as root

libpgsql2-7.2.2-1.2mdk is the package that provides libpq.so.2 under 9.0; I 
don't have the 9.1 machine I built that RPM on handy to find out what package 
provides it there but it's probably libpgsql2-something.  But if you download 
the gambas RPMs and type "urpmi gambas*.rpm" it should automatically install 
whatever packages it needs.

Hi Charlie,

If some code don't works on your Linxu box, do not hesitate ! Send me your 
project (or better just a short example that shows the problem) so that I can 
see if it is a bug that depends on me, or on the distribution / the library, 
etc.

The info files contain the description of each class, method, property and 
event contained in a component.

To help me to solve this problem, do the following:

$ gdb gbi
...
(gdb) set args -a
(gdb) run
...
segfault
(gdb) bt
...

And send me the result of the 'bt' command.

Charlie ha sdone a good job. I have just the following remark :

The database component tries to hide all the database internal to create 
databases, tables, indexes, and (a little bit) users. You can use the SAME 
syntax whatever you use PostgreSQL or MySQL. This way, you CAN write with 
gambas a really database-independent application. The Gambas Database Manager 
is such an application. There is only one function that depends on the type 
of the database, because it uses a SELECT syntax that only works on 
PostgreSQL.

Apparently, there are some problems between MySQL and these 
database-independant syntax, but it will solved...soon :-)

Hi,

I compiled gambas with
--disable-pgsql-driver --disable-mysql-driver
and I specified the kde include and libs (they are in /usr/kde/3.1/ on 
my system (gentoo standard))
then make then make install
everything went fine no errors
now I start gambas and I get

ERROR: #2 Cannot load class 'Project': Bad format in constant section

is this error sparc related because of the system's "endianess" ?

Salut Beno?t,

I know that my 'old' SuSE 7.2 has no more all the possibilies a new 
Distri. one have.
So when I send you my problems, I just send them to let you know about 
the problems who can be found, I know that some are based on my 'old' 
system.
But I test gambas also on a SuSE 8.0 and some other newer Linux 
maschines, if time permits.
For the .edit on mysql have a look at

 http://www.theeasygambasdoku.de

9. Edit Records

amicalement
Charlie

PS I think I have to change to a newer System .

Salut,

I started that project with the first usable gb.db for mysql I think it 
was 0.50 and I wanted to set all User in the same state, to create a 
base to work with, but without any danger to work on a System - Database 
or table.

When the project was ready to publish, we had 0.53, but for mysql, not 
all tounted round and changes has to be made.

After, around easter, we (me and Jochen) had no time to finish it, and 
there were no signe on the liste to be interest.
So we sait we can wait for newer / better gb.db versions.

Finaly, yesterday I took it to the 0.56 version , because there were a 
raise off mails about gb.db.
Jochen intigrated it into his pages.

About the project:
Today we have more posssibilities to do that, and it will be great to 
set it, basing on that, to rewrite it, with that new , better gb.db.
And if anybody who use pgsql, can write the code for.

Charlie

Hi,

After I tried installing gambas on my Ultra10 I tried on a more 
conventionnal platform
but all three systems I tried give me the same error during the make 
install phase
(I tried with --with-kde-libraries=/usr/kde/3.1/lib 
--with-kde-includes=/usr/kde/3.1/include --disable-pgsgl-driver 
--disable-mysql-driver and without --disable-mysql-driver)

I always get this


Making symbolic links in /usr/bin...


Compiling and installing the development environment...

Compiling gambas...

OK

Compiling gambas-database-manager...

OK


Creating the library info files...

/opt/gambas/lib/info/gb.info

/opt/gambas/lib/info/gb.example.info

make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2

make[1]: Leaving directory /root/gambas-0.56'

make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1


my uninformed guess is that's it's a problem with texinfo .info files or 
something related to the documentation maybe ?
anyone can shed a light on this , I'd really like to give gambas a try !

Hi Jean-Fran?ois,

Some works were made to make Gambas compiling on Solaris, but the work to 
manage CPU endianness is not terminated, so the crash on Sparc is absolutely 
normal.

As for this crash with .info file, I think it is the sea serpent of 
incompatibility between KDE malloc and GLibc malloc. I'm going to see if I 
can do something.

Note: info is nothing to do woth texinfo, it is only files containing the 
description of a component. You can open it with a text editor to see what it 
contains.

Regards,

Hi,

not sure if this is helpful
here are the different versions of the softwares I have installed
tell me if you need the version of a software that's not there

glib 2.2.1
glibc 2.3.1-r4
gcc 3.2.2
gcc-config 1.3.1-r1
kdelibs 3.1.1a (most of kde is 3.1.1 but core packages are 3.1.1a)
I'm using compiler options (CFLAGS & CXXFLAGS) = "-mcpu=athlon-xp -03 -pipe"
I have attached the contents of my /opt/gambas/lib/info folder if that's 
useful

thanks,

Subject: [Gambas-user] TomySql
Message-ID: <3EC3F855.8040409@...9...>

To whom it my concern.

I remarked it only today.
The TomySql don't work anymore in the IDE since gambas-0.55.
EXEC needs an array now.

see ChangeLog at gambas-0.55.

INTERPRETER

* The EXEC instruction has been replaced by two instructions: EXEC and SHELL.

  SHELL works like the old EXEC, by calling "/bin/sh" in the background.

  EXEC runs the specified process directly, and takes all its arguments in
  a string array.

  Example:

    EXEC [ "/usr/bin/ls", "-la" ] WAIT


To make it working again replace all EXEC (do Ctrl+F / Project/ Word 
only / Replace all in the IDE) with SHELL.

As soon, as possible I will post a working TomySql to

amicalement

It's work just fine, but the program exit when I press any button except

Also the title in the message window is not "WithDB.08" but "WithDB.05"

And where I can find documentation about all the syntax in database

Salut, it seams to be something with /tmp , I had this also on a RH 8.0 
and could not find the reason (Without to much searching)

The message is Ok, that also happend if you go down behind the first 
record, but there it don't crash, but it do work 'strange' and like it 
is often not regulary. But this is new in gambas-0.56 , I don't have 
reported to Beno?t yet, because I don't take the time for do to.
Now it's done.

But always that also can be a question of philosophy.
 Some DB-engines do it, in other you have to do it by code.

Try it with  if rResult.Available then rResult.MoveNext.
If you do that on MovePrevious the messagebox don't raise, that told me 
that in the Software both cases are not equal.
In all cases it is better to do it.
In my case it's a bug in my project.

This is , because tho write all this parts , I copied always one to the

Betreff:
[Gambas-devel] Database component syntax
Von:
Beno??? Minisini <gambas at ...1...>
Datum:
Sun, 16 Feb 2003 11:42:18 +0100
An:
gambas-devel at lists.sourceforge.net, gambas-user at lists.sourceforge.net

Here is a quick explanation of how to use the database component.

**** Opening a database:

DIM hDB AS NEW Database

hDB.Type = "postgresql"
hDB.Name = "mydabatabase"
'Optional parameters
'hDB.User = "benoit"
'hDB.Password = ""
'hDB.Port = 0
'hDB.Host = "AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD"

hDB.Open

**** Closing a database:

HDB.Close

**** Executing a query and getting the result

DIM iId AS Integer
DIM sName AS String
DIM rResult AS Result
DIM sField AS String

iID = 1
sName = "Gambas"

rResult = hDB.Exec("SELECT * INTO MyTable WHERE id = &1 AND name = &2", iId, sName)

' The iId and sName are substituted into the query, with automatic quoting
' => The executed query is "SELECT * INTO MyTable WHERE id = 1 AND 
'    name = 'Gambas'"

' Printing a result

WHILE rResult.Available

  FOR EACH sField IN rResult.Fields
    PRINT sField; " = "; rResult[sField]
  NEXT
  PRINT

  rResult.MoveNext
WEND


**** Creating a record in a table

rResult = hDB.Create("MyTable")
rResult!id = 2
rResult!Name = "Python"
rResult.Update ' => Generates an INSERT query


**** Editing records in a table

rResult = hDB.Edit("MyTable", "Name = &1", "Perl")
' => send the query "SELECT * INTO MyTable WHERE Name = 'Perl'"

WHILE rResult.Available

  rResult!Name = "PHP"
  rResult.Update ' => Generates an UPDATE query

  rResult.MoveNext
WEND

BE CAREFUL ! You cannot edit records this way if the component cannot find a primary index in your table (in postgresql, a primary index on the table "MyTable" is an index named "MyTable_pkey"). If you have no primary index on your table, you must use Exec() with your own UPDATE query.


**** Transactions

hDB.Begin
...
hDB.Commit
...
hDB.Rollback


BE CAREFUL ! The interface of the database component is not terminated, so it is subject to any change ! This is an EXPERIMENTAL component.

hi,
I'm using gentoo , it's really for power user , every single piece of 
software is compiled locally during install (which can take up to 3 days

database and all the related application)
it's dead easy to install stuff and repair anything , the system is self

most of the configuration either has good default or is manually setup
one thing is that it doesn't apparently work with gambas for now
the main reason for this is that there is not a .ebuild file made for 
gambas , one should be made soon with all the press about gambas on slashdot

Typing "urpmf libfam.la" under Mandrake 9.0 returns

libfam0-devel:/usr/lib/libfam.la

indicating you need libfam0-devel installed (which you should be able to do 
through Software Manager or by typing "urpmi libfam0-devel").  I bet it's the 
same under 9.1 and I probably included that as a BuildRequires: in my SRPM's 
for both Mandrake 9.0 and 9.1.  (If I didn't, apparently I should have.)

about it
anyway that's how I found out about this project

For some reason it doesn't show up in slashdot's search engine, but here it 
is:

http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/05/05/1225249

He mentions Gambas in his response to question #2.  The only discussion of it 
after that was in an anonymous comment modded down to -1 suggesting HBasic 
instead of Gambas and trashing Lindows in general.

I would expect Gambas will get a slashdot story to itself (and a lot of 
controversy from l33t-ass armchair programmers) whenever it gets to 1.0 
though.  The same would be true of HBasic.  Anything that lets normal people 
be productive is going to polarize us nerds.

I am a Gambas nubee.
How do I 
"define a startup class in the project properties dialog" called Main or
something like that?  Troubleshooting says that I need to do that to get
it to run, but does not tell me how.

You can go into the Project menu, then Properties, then on the General tab 
scroll down a bit and you'll find the startup class option.  Set it to the 
class for your startup form.

That's not all you have to do though.  In VB, if you select a startup form, 
it's automatically loaded and shown at runtime.  In Gambas, the only special 
thing about the startup class is that it contains a public sub called Main() 
which gets executed first.  Into that sub you need to put something like the 
following (a Gambas idiom, basically):

DIM testform AS NEW testform
testform.show

or if you want to be object-orientedly-correct and less VB-like:

DIM myTestForm as new testform
myTestForm.show

The first line loads the form (which would automatically happen in VB the 
first time you referred to it as an object) and the second shows it (which 
only automatically happens in VB if the form is the startup form.)  There is 
a "load components immediately at startup" option in project properties but 
that doesn't seem to make the above code unnecessary yet.  This may be 
because VB forms have a class built into them whereas Gambas keeps the class 
separate from the form layout, but I haven't looked too closely yet.

I'm hoping to hack the IDE to hide some of this and make some of it automatic, 
maybe even provide an option to emulate the VB startup form behavior and hide 
Sub Main in that case.  I know this is contrary to what Benoit wants to do 
(make a VB like language that Linux people won't sneer at too badly) but I'll 
probably submit the patches anyway when things are working just in case.

When you have a form named Form1 in VB, and you type Form1.Show, what happens 
in the background ? Exactly what you must do by hand in Gambas: the form is 
instanciated, and the instance is given the same name as the form.

This leads to problems:

1) The newbie is confused, because class and instance of this class have the 
same name. So the newbie don't really understand what he does exactly.

2) The form is instanciated when you try to use the form class as a form 
instance. You save two lines of code and one variable at first, but when you 
want to exit the program, you must be very careful not to make a reference to 
a closed form, elsewhere this form is recreated, and your program does not 
exit ! (I had this problem many times in my VB programs)

Maybe I could have the same behavior with forms on Gambas. But I think that 
the disadventages are greater than the advantages.

Modifying the IDE will not help you... It is a functionnality that must be add 
to the interpreter: something like auto-instanciating class. But I don't even 
know if it is technically possible at the moment !

Maybe I could add a method to the Form class: Form.ShowDialog, that will 
automatically create an instance, and open it modal. But it need support into 
the interpreter too...

Indeed, and that's why I hope to automate and hide the process in Gambas.  
There's no need for the user to see it if it's the same in every project.

True, and it's kinda hard to reuse forms in VB.  Nonetheless, there are a lot 
of VB programmers who are going to be interested in Gambas and I see no 
reason to hinder them with good programming style ;)  The truth is, even in 
your examples to date you don't have any examples of form reuse, and I expect 
most VB programmers are used to the idea that forms only ever get loaded 
once.  So I think that making it optionally easy for the user (since this is 
BASIC after all) is more important than Java-like reuse of everything.

Far more importantly, you save a learning curve.  People expect to be able to 
just create a form, hit F5 and have it come up.  That's the beauty of VB, the 
ability to make it do something visible without writing a single line of 
code.  VB's appeal has never been clean design or good programming style or 
any of that stuff, it's been the fact that it's easy to learn and use.  And 
Linux programmers who value "technically correct" solutions are already using 
C/C++/Java, whereas VB programmers currently have nowhere to go.

Having never actually unloaded a form in VB except to force an exit (by 
unloading the main form), I never ran into this problem.

We have different goals.  You're looking to make something that's like VB, 
only good.  I'm looking for something that will make VB programmers as 
comfortable under Linux as Openoffice makes Word users.

Sure I can.  As far as the "press F5 without having written any code" issue 
goes, I can add something to the properties dialog that says "Make VB style 
project with this startup form:", create a file called "vbproj.class" which 
is hidden from view in the IDE and contains a sub main that instantiates and 
shows the desired form.  vbproj.class becomes the startup class as far as 
Gambas the language is concerned, just as myfilename.vbp is the "startup 
class" of a VB project, but the user never sees or edits it.  That part's 
pretty trivial.

Since you don't seem to have implemented project-wide global variables or 
include files yet, I haven't figured out a way to instantiate all the forms 
in the project at startup yet (which would take care of the "form being 
instantiated the first time you refer to it" problem), nor how to refer to 
those forms outside the startup class if you do, so I may be stuck there for 
now.  It seems to me the easiest way to take care of that without bothering 
non-VB-familiar Gambas users would be to make a compiler directive like "USE 
GLOBALS" or something that extends the scope of public variables to the 
entire project.  But even without any of that, just having VB programmers or 
novice Gambas programmers make a form, run it and have it show up 
automatically will be a breakthrough in making Gambas seem easier than it is, 
I think.

I know it's ugly, but so is VB and I'm trying to recreate the VB experience 
using Gambas. ;)  I am utterly uninterested in teaching VB programmers how to 
be better programmers of other languages, I just want them to be able to say, 
"Hey, there's an equivalent tool for Linux that's just as easy."  I never 
tried to teach Word users LyX or LaTeX and I'm not going to try to teach VB 
users about encapsulation and strongly typed variables.  I'm hoping to at 
least get a tool together that recreates their .frm files as Gambas forms, 
even if I can't convert the code automatically.  And I know that's not your 
goal, and so I'll try to avoid stepping on your toes (I can't imagine that 
I'll touch the interpreter, for one thing.)  I mean no disrespect by any of 
this; I just want to make life easier for my users.

I suppose this really belonged on gambas-devel, sorry about that.

Rob

Hi Benoit & Rob 
	i'm "F5" user and i think is great idea to "SIMPLIFIED" the life of 
programmers... 
At work I must use VisualBasic for my project... Is more simple and RAPID 
language that i have found in My life... I have made a Big project with DB 
interaction in few days... 
Another feature/future list find in Gambas:
- AutoComplete Intellisense Code completion expresses (Like VB) Is very simple 
and rapid to understand what can i do..
- Automatic puts in capitals and spaces where appropriate(variable, function 
etc..)

Thanks Both in advance 
"F5" User

Dimitri :-)

I've done a lot of amateur VB work before and I never realised that form 
created in the IDE
were in fact classes I though there were unique objects

while I never use classes and never reuse code , but I'd rather know 
about this than have the IDE hide this from me
the IDE could insert the form instanciation and .show lines on the form 
selected as startup form and that would be fine for "F5 users"
and that would be fine for users who want control

one more thing , I understand that a gambas program running in a 
interpreter is going to be slow , but how fast is it going to be when 
compiled
compared to a gcc 3.2 C program ? is that going to be about the same 
thing or way slower ?

the first thing I'm going to do when I get gambas working is I'm going 
to make a CallerID reader deamon , with a client interface that run on 
many computers

Draw.Begin(Printer)

Draw.Rect(...)
Draw.Text(...)
...

Printer.NewPage

Draw...

Draw.End(Printer)

I tested it once a long time ago. So tell me if you have problems, bugs, 
strange behaviour with the Printer class.

My god, people are so lazy ! :-)
Rob and I will find a solution for the "hit F5 and run" functionnality...

It needs syntax analysis on keystroke, so I think gambas is not enough fast to 
do that. I must insert that in the editor component: it takes time to program 
that. So I will do that in the future...

For capitals: it could be possible. It is the same programming problem than 
auto-completion.

For spaces, it will be more difficult, and it is not very important.

It depends. It is far slower than a C program to make loops and computing. It 
is slower for making string handling, or file reading. It is a bit slower to 
make GUI. But all gambas is enough fast to make an useful IDE. And if you 
need speed, you can write a component in C.

Tough luck. That's exactly what I tried to build a couple of weeks ago,
but there isn't an - obvious - way for opening the modem device for
read/write. I thought about opening for write, send command, closing,
opening for read and reading response, but the response was never
captured by my program. Opening two devices didn't help me either :(

You could always interface an external modem chat program (such as chat)
to send your initial commands to the modem, but I don't consider this
good practice.

Any ideas, somebody?

Hi all 
	some week ago i have post this simple serial read example.
But is not simple for send a command to COM (ttySx) and receive the data if is 
possible i thinks is great idea to create a Object (like MSComm) with some 
events 
- On Receive
- Data Out
- Data int

thanks in advance
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i have to read a serial data from a ttySx and i use stty command to set the 
9600bps 8N1 no hardware control on Serial Port but nothing to do i write this 
very simple Project but nothing... There is a End Of Line Type?
Thanks in advace.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
STATIC PUBLIC SUB Main()
  hForm AS Fmain

Well, it is a little strange...
I started with a test on a form

  DIM mypic AS Picture
  mypic = NEW Picture
  mypic.load("/root/Projects/testdraw/gambas.gif")
  Draw.begin(ME)
  Draw.rect(100, 100, 200, 200)
  Draw.line(120,120,280,280)
  Draw.picture(mypic)
  Draw.end()

And that works fine
If I then simply do

Draw.Begin(Printer)

It says "Unknown identifier: Printer..." during syntax check
If I then try 

DIM foobar AS Printer
Draw.Begin(foobar)

It says "Null Object" at runtime
However, if I do

DIM foobar AS Printer
Draw.Begin(Printer)

It then works ???
However, it cuts about 35 pixels off the top

Also, is there a way to grab the entire Form client area 
(Or the entire window for that matter) and print it?

Everyone,

I would like to say that an MDI form option would be very nice.  For me, a 
lot of floating windows adds clutter and tend to get lost behind each other,
even on a nice big 17" monitor with 1280x1024 resolution.

Thanks,

In fact, it is not a bug, it is a compiler feature :-)

The compiler assumes that the identifier MyClass is a class only if it finds:

  something AS MyClass

Or

  CLASS MyClass

Before the real use of the class.

So you must add CLASS Printer at the beginning of your code.

This behaviour may hopefully change in the future :-)

No real project, just playing, the test code at the top
With the ME replaced with Printer after the addition of
DIM foobar AS Printer, i.e.

DIM foobar AS Printer
DIM mypic AS Picture
   mypic = NEW Picture
   mypic.load("/root/Projects/testdraw/gambas.gif")
   Draw.begin(Printer)
   Draw.rect(100, 100, 200, 200)
   Draw.line(120,120,280,280)
   Draw.picture(mypic)
   Draw.end()

When done on the form all is ok
The pic is in the upper left corner of the form
When done to the printer, the top half of the pic is cut off
(The pic is your mascot in a 128x70 gif, so about 35 pixels)
The left margin is fine, about 6mm, the "unprintable" area

I've found the problem
The paper size defaults to A4 
(which I guess makes sense : -)
When I set it to US letter it works fine

Why this would cause the TOP to be cut off
Instead of the bottom which is the normal result
Is a little strange, but wouldn't happen on a "normal" app
Since this is a small test drawing I didn'y think it would be a factor

Someone or something must have access to the form graphic context
How do you redraw the window after hide, minimize, etc?
Do you just rely on X to do this for you?

If you hold a copy of the bitmap image, how do I access it?
If you let X do it, can I get a copy of the image from it?
If you redraw from scratch, where is the object list?

I agree.  One of my pet peeves about Linux tools is that they tend towards the 
"lots of little windows" design (e.g. gimp, glade, many java tools, Visual 
Tcl which I was desperate enough to try a couple years ago) and it gets 
unmanageable pretty quickly and even though it's the same amount of 
information being conveyed, I have yet to run into a Windows or Mac user who 
doesn't fire up one of those tools for the first time and go "Ack!  Why does 
it open so many windows?"

Visual BASIC 3.0 and earlier did the "bunch of little windows" thing, and 
eventually they moved towards the MDI thing.  I know that just because VB is 
one way doesn't mean it's the right way, but at this point even Linux IDE's 
like kdevelop and qtdesigner are moving towards that style.  I don't even 
know if Gambas' Qt bindings support MDI forms yet though, and I'm concerned 
it could be a pretty serious rewrite for a fairly cosmetic feature so early 
in Gambas' development.  Still, assuming MDI support is in there now, the IDE 
is written in Gambas and we're all at least BASIC programmers here....

Well, there's actually no way to do that in VB either except as a very low 
resolution screenshot type of thing.  The solution I came up with was to 
write a set of functions that wrapped the various graphics primitives I 
needed (as well as some extra text formatting functions since I was writing a 
report generator) and wrote them to the screen, printer or both devices 
depending on your settings.  I think that's a more reasonable approach than 
making Gambas track everything you've done to the Form client area.  Though 
if someone with too much time on their hands wanted to write a Display 
Postscript canvas I'd give that a try too ;)

Then again if all you want is a printscreen type of thing, all you need is to 
call an external screen grabbing program.  Maybe the Gambas KDE automation 
stuff could be extended to control KSnapshot for example, or maybe there's a 
way to get the X11 handle of the window you're controlling and use some more 
traditional X capture utility.

Hey ! Are you a policeman ? :-)

QT manages all that. I think there is a QT method to get a pixmap from window 
contents. Maybe should I give an access to it ? :-)

I think it would be a nice addition

BTW, since everyone seems to be airing their wish lists : -0
Are there plans for a Win version of Gambas?

Here is a workaround for what I wanted to do
(only drawback is that ImageMagick must be present)
I have set the title of the Form to MyForm1

PUBLIC SUB PrintButton_Click()

  DIM foobar AS printer
  DIM mypic AS picture

  printer.size = 2
  mypic = NEW picture
  EXEC "import -window MyForm1 /tmp/grab.jpg" WAIT
  mypic.load("/tmp/grab.jpg")
  Draw.begin(printer)
  Draw.picture(mypic)
  Draw.end

END

If you want the window decorations also, you just add -frame

Reality. There are a billion Windows users in the world
They need tools, we often have to make things for them
There is a real need for simple graphical development tools
(which explains the success of Visual Basic in the first place)
There is a massive need for cross platform development tools
The market for a simple, effective, cross platform tool is obvious
(I have Kylix, Delphi, VB, Glade, Forte, perl, tcl, none of them do it)
This could be it, as in Matrix, the ONE, VB 1.0 for the free world
The very thing that brings things like PrintShop to Linux
With the people who love things like PrintShop
Don't let me put any pressure on you : -)

The small stuff...

The printer defaults to greyscale
But there is no property for color in the printer class
(I can pop up the setup dialog and change it to color, but a pita)
Could you either change the default to color or make the property available?

I had on my wish list a socket control
It occurs to me now that it probably already exists
Is this not the connection mechanism used for the database stuff?
Couldn't a generic socket control be created from this?

Along that same line
Where are the docs on building for Gambas
controls\extensions\plugins\classes\whatever you want to call them?

Nearly, but I don't know which lenght the Array will have.
And it will have mostly 2 , but sometimes more then 2 Arrays included.

Message-ID: <200305251738.08521.gambas@...2...>

Hi everyone,

Here is the 0.57 version of Gambas !

This version compiles correctly on Mandrake 9.1 now. On other distributions, 
the last XFree font system fontconfig 2 and QT 3.1 are highly recommended.

Well, what's new ? 

- You get a Workspace control to make MDI applications.
- Form controls can be public like Visual Basic does.
- Forms are self-executable now.

I think old VB users should be happy with that :-)

How to make a MDI application ?

Just add a Workspace control into your main form, and creates all your MDI 
child windows by using this workspace as a parent.

Example:

FMain is my main form, and it has a wrkMain workspace control inside.
To add a MDI window, just do:

  MyMDIChild = NEW Form(wrkMain)

The Workspace control has a Children property that returns each of its MDI 
child windows. You must use it to create a dynamic menu that lists all the 
MDI child windows.

The gambas database manager is now a full MDI application. You can browse its 
source code to see more details about that.

I added a table on the "important notes" page on the web site, to try to get 
all gambas problems related to a specific distribution. I need your help to 
fill it !

Regards,

Message-ID: <3ED10519.7090307@...9...>

Salut,

writing actually a little tool to help you to make your sourcecode 
easier to read, I call it Pretty Printer.
This tool  is going on the raw file and makes the changes you set (but 
don't yet save them).

I tried it on gambas Project.class (0.56) and didn't see no more case 
which is not handled ( this class is attached to the project as 
Project.test.)
In Main.module you can set it for testing or take any other file.

Actually only clean Syntax is supported, I mean If you have more then 
one blank in Keywords I don't find it.
If you find Keywords in you code whos not handled, please let me know or 
add it to the array ( and let me know).

The project like it is does NOT make changes to the file, it is only for 
testing.

In FIndenter.class you find the SUB Indenter, which is comment out.
Before using read the changes to make. ( I had a look to the 0.57 
FEditor.class , it's still right)
And you know you do it on your own risc.

Oh yes, the setting are not saved .:-(

Amicalement
Charlie

OK, so is there any way to do that in apps that instantiate forms from a 
separate class, like the gambas gui?  I first set form controls to public in 
the compile time options (thanks :) ), added a workspace to FMain as 
Workspace1, and changed the following in the Project module:

  ToolForm = NEW FTool

to

  ToolForm = NEW FTool(ProjectForm.Workspace1)

and it errors out on that line with "Unknown symbol 'Workspace1' in class 
'FMain'.  I tried some intermediate steps like 

PUBLIC ws as Object (outside of sub main)
ws = ProjectForm.Workspace1
ToolForm = NEW FTool(ws)

but it errors out on Workspace1 the same way.  Finally I tried to copy what 
you did with the database manager (make a static public member of FMain 
called Workspace and set it to the workspace object in _new) but then when I 
tried

ToolForm = NEW FTool(ProjectForm.ws)

I got "FMain.ws is static".  Did I get the syntax wrong?

What do you mean exactly by that ("show the tables") ? It is showing ONE table 
definition, ONE table contents, or the list of tables in the treeview ?
If so, how many records do you have in your table, or how many tables do you 
have in your database ? Have you a slow machine ? Could you try the same 
database, but with postgresql ?

Meaning  the treeview  who is listing the tables (3047 tables in this 
case) the number of field and records in these tables ? I never count them.

I though maybe it would fall back on more basic X11 widget , or maybe 
that the IDE was sort of self contained and would work with on qt run 
time libs and that maybe the qt component was only needed when a program 
was running inside the interpreter , anyway I was just reporting the 
error and testing all possibilities even though I am not familiar with 
the inner working of gambas and can only guess of how to fix my problem

btw , does this mean that to run a program built with gambas , gambas 
must be installed ? is there a way to statically link gambas application 
with gambas libs so that they will run on another system without 
installing gambas ?

I test on multiple systems and alway ended up with the same result so 
I'll only tell you about what has not changed between the systems
if I left anything out tell me

they are all x86

they all use these components versions

glib 2.2.1
glibc 2.3.1-r4
gcc 3.2.2
gcc-config 1.3.1-r1
kdelibs 3.1.1a (most of kde is 3.1.1 but core packages are 3.1.1a)

I can go more in details than that but I don't know exactly what 
information is relevant to the problem beside this

And to add some salt to the injury, my company is focused on Linux/Unix 
solutions, yet it is the Windows people who do not complain much about the
support price. :) Being in need to develop some lite marketing software for 
both Linux and Windows, I've run across Runtime Revolution (www.runrev.com), 
which offer quite nice RAD that can compile for Windows, Mac OS X (and less), 
Linux and many other flavours of Unix. I would really like if some easy tool 
like Gambas could produce binaries for Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.
But perhaps we should wait for Gambas to get some maturity on Linux platform 
first, before migrating to other platforms?

Hi

it's an official issue for gambas or just a personnal test ?

In the past i prefer, the vb4 interface as the vb 6 one !
It 's more practicle to elaborate the windows desing.

Nevertheless, it's not right for all... like the database tool.

Fabien

Thank for your Mandrake rpms !

Hi

I'm really agree with you. Befor all Gambas is a tool for Unix... After, we 
can easily make a cross to MacOSX because it's an unix clone.

For windows... hem ... it's not really the same but we will see.

For the first time, we really need your help, and a professionnal help, if we 
want to make gambas as a usefull tool. We need, help for the lib making, qt, 
and socket and gtk+. So we need c++ and c Develloper who want to have a 
simple and speedy tool. 

(hem and french traducer.... To help me in the help traduction !)

Because Gambas is, before all a console tool.
I think the first idea of the gambas parents is make a free linguage, 
independent off all integration system.
Actually we can use gambas with qt, but we cant use gambas sole

That's the power of gambas and thats the power of unix too !

hem ... have you understand me ?

Yup, making port to NT isn't trivial, however, if the language is clean, easy 
and has some power, we'll find someone to port to Windows.

I myself am not really a programmer (although I did develop some C and Perl 
software, and I'm acquainted to VB), but I'd be glad to help in any way I can. 
But for the first thing, I have to get this thing working on my SuSE 8.2 box..

Oh yes, I do think that help system should be traduced, as long as Benoit or

That's just fine, but why not try to go one step further? Many people are 
afraid of learning Java, but they find the cross-platform operability quite 
appealing. If we're talking console, we can talk Linux and Mac OS X (but bear 
in mind that for Mac user, OS X *is* it's GUI, and only gurus will tamper 
with the CLI), and we surely aren't talking Windows. 
Then, think about the future: regardless of what we think of console, it is 
the fact that future software will be GUI-ed and that many people, among them 
professionals, will demand GUI over CLI. GUI is not the future, it is 
present. Now, take all this into consideration, make cross platform tool and 
enjoy your share of makin the world better place for everyone. ;)

Just for example, Runtime Revolution I've mentioned allow me to use Macintosh 
originated script language in RAD enviroment that produces binary for Mac, 
Linux and Windows, and I can take Windows binary and run it under wine if I 
want to, and I can send this to my friend who's using Windows, and I can do 
all this seated at my SuSE box, no need to go to my Titanium or reboot to 
Windows, and I can even use some debugging trough wine. :-) 

I'd like to be able to do that with Gambas, too.

Just a personal test, though if I get it working I'll certainly make it 
available to VB5/VB6 fans.

I think a case can be made for either.  However, the changes (once they work) 
appear to be simple enough that it could be a checkbox in some preferences 
dialog (followed by a restart of course.)

Anything to get more people using/testing gambas ;)

I've played with Runtime Revolution (an eval comes with some commercial 
packages of Mandrake) but it strikes me as being a somewhat more programmer 
oriented Hypercard than a VB replacement.  There's a place for it in 
commercial development, but I think something like RealBASIC (if they ever 
port to OSX and Linux, last I knew they were MacOS <=9 and Windows) or an 
eventually ported Gambas might be better for most corporate shops with a lot 
of existing VB skill.

Hello everybody,
I've done a small program in gambas 0.44 which reads a file with data 
form my palm, converted with the tool pdb2csv. Now I've updated gambas 
and the german characters (?,?, ?) in the file are not longer readable.
I suppose it's because of the UTF-8 charset changing since 0.50 ?!
But what can I do ?

Subject: [Gambas-user] Problems compiling gambas
Message-ID: <1053978118.13514.6.camel@...150...>

Hello all!

I tried to compile gambas 0.57 but it segfaults when the installation
tries to generate the info files. I also tried installing the RPM's but
it still segfaults when I run gambas IDE or any gambas program from the
command line. Then I tried to compile versions 0.56 and 0.55 (I had kept
the tarballs) but the effect is still the same : it segfaults.

I have a Mandrake 9.1 RC1 system, which was reinstalled recently. The
only thing I have done to alter it was to install the nvidia drivers. I
think I read a post a while ago about nvidia drivers wrecking havoc to
gambas?

But then again, before formatting my system gambas compiled just fine.
What's wrong? Is there anything I can do?

I'll be happy to provide more information if needed.

Thank you in advance,

hi fabien,
why don't you write for the "easy gambas doku"?
unfortunately i'm very busy at work, i have to do extra-hours, so actual 
there's no time for me to do some gambas stuff :-(
but gambas develops fast and there is a big need of new chapters.
(i hope that i will have time in the near future)

i think it is great if you make your side, but i am afraid, that we do some 
work twice.

Well, the problem of most Linux users wanting all things free is a 
separate issue

And thanks for the tip on Runtime Revolution, but it doesn't really fit 
my needs
I interact with mostly newbies and low an medium level users in various ways
I find interpreted language tools to be best suited to the things I do 
most of the time
I can build a basic app for them that does what they want to do (or 
think they do)
And then later, when they want to add\change something for some reason
Tell them to go to line 126 and insert the following blah, blah, blah
Or do it myself and send them one simple file

At some point, if this kind of system continues
Most get to the point where they can carry the ball themselves
They become self sufficient and the world has another programmer

For this kind of work VB 1.0 was almost a perfect tool
It was small, simple, cheap, easy to obtain, stable for years
And since at most it was one small library and some text files
It was a breeze to distribute an application in many different ways

I use Linux and love Linux, but I often still need to do this, for Win 
users too
I would love to have a simple, small, free or cheap development tool to use
Gambas seems to be that, as it is right now (I can work around the edges)
If it were cross platform it would only make it 100 times better to use
Gambas could become what Java promised but never delivered

And yes, Gambas for the Mac would be way cool

>But perhaps we should wait for Gambas to get some maturity on Linux platform 
>first, before migrating to other platforms? 
>
You mean wait until Gambas is big and ugly like VB 4.0 before it is ported?
No, that would be a really bad thing. It should happen now while it is 
still small
As to help it stay that way, so it doesn't become the mess VB or Java or 
perl has
Less is more. Do one thing (or a small group of things) and do it well. Etc.

Basic.

No, I'd be happy if it could compile out of the box on my SuSE :))
This is the first thing why we should consider Gambas immature at this point.
While the language and underlying algorythms might be perfect, the fact that 
it doesn't compile out of the box is really bad thing. It prevents language 
from being included with distributions (SuSE has only some old release, 
perhaps because of building troubles?), and the rapid development stage (as 
is happening now) will prevent everyone but experienced programmer from 
giving it a try. 

So what we have here, as I see it, are two things: disability to compile out 
of the box, which is a bad, bad thing, and fast development, which is just 
great. But these two do make Gambas immature. The first step should be 
to try to solve building showstoppers.

I mean no disrespect, but I had no more trouble building Gambas 0.57 under 
Mandrake (to make the RPM's) than I have with any previous version.  There 
are SuSE RPM's out there which must mean someone wrote a spec file for some 
version of Gambas under SuSE; maybe you should give that a try for some 
hints.  Or even try rebuilding my source RPM, adjusting the package names in 
Requires and BuildRequires as necessary.

I don't mind at all - the bandwidth usage hasn't been bad so far, and if it 
does get bad, I have a couple options with regard to alternative hosting 
situations.

Me too but... I've thinkabout a new structure for help. I promish you to make 
my tutorial based on your doku !

But ... I want to find a more simple way than you, with less work for the same 
thing. Don't be affraid, your work is not lost, when, i find the good 
structure, i think we can merge our idea to made a multi linguage, help.

I haven't built RPM"s for 9.1 yet, but I remember at some point having to add 
some flag to the %configure line like --with-pgsql-libs=/usr/lib (probably 
not the actual line.)  I'll see if I can build it this afternoon under 9.1 
and let you know what I did.

I agree with you. 

I develop on Mandrake 9.1, so it is easy for me to make gambas working on it.

For the other systems, SuSE sent me a SuSE 8.1 for free, so I could check 
gambas on it, and I try to get RedHat when I can. I can't test on SuSE > 8.1.

The big problem is that Linux evolves quickly, and that the different 
distributions do not hesitate to change many things between versions that 
breaks gambas compilation process.

There is another problem in the dynamic library loader of Linux that seems to 
have problems with the way some libraries replaces symbols of other 
libraries. For example, KDE as its own malloc() implementation. As gambas 
loads QT and/or KDE by components, and not by using the linker, these bugs 
arise ! And there are very fews applications like gambas that deals with qt 
and/or kde this way.

Another problem is Trolltech that easily changes the internal of Qt at each 
version without claiming it, and this breaks the gambas qt component.

The last problem is the NVIDIA Open-GL driver that is buggy, because it cannot  
be loaded as a shared library without crashing.

But don't worry, I think all these libraries and distributions will stabilize 
in the future.

Free software is an adventure.

Hi Klaus,

You canuse the Conv$() function that can convert from any charset to any other 
charset.

Now in Gambas, all qt controls use UTF-8. Every string coming from and sent to 
the interface are in UTF-8.

Every string sent to a terminal, or into a database are sent as is, so you 
must be careful with the charset of the data destination.

For example, for putting a file downloaded from a palm into a textbox, you may 
have to do the following :

MyTextBox.Text = Conv$(MyPalmData, "ISO-8859-1", "UTF-8")

Tell me if it works,

Regards,

I've always configured and compiled gambas without any problem on Mandrake 9.1
With all the correct development packages installed for mysql and pgsql i've 
found that the best way to configure is with a command like this 
./configure --with-pgsql-libraries=/usr/lib/pgsql/
and all is ok.

Hope this helps
and a GREEEAAAATTT thanks to all folks aout there for a so good job !!!

Remove your own Main() function, because it overloads the internal Main() 
function of the class Form, and so nothing happens !

i had installed the development package of postgresql (i have met this 
point earlyer with another program)
i have checked the command you wrote and now, the missing files are the 
include files.
i have used the rpm of mandrake 9.1 power pack
could you please tell me if you used also the same rpm, or did you 
install the devel package from another source?

I have strange ideas sometimes :-)

In gambas, you cannot access a static member from an object reference. You 
must use the class name.

Instead of using 'ProjectForm.ws', you must use 'FMain.ws'.

Or you can make 'ws' non static.

This behaviour may change in the future, because it is not usual !

Thanks, that was all it took!

http://www.kudla.org/gambas-mdi.png

It's not entirely stable yet (like if you maximize it and then exit, about 66% 
of the time the next time you try to run it it exits without error, and I 
haven't gotten round to figuring out how to save the MDI subforms' positions 
each time) but VB5/6 lovers should dig this.  I would want to add a 
preference thing to control MDI/non-MDI since there were only like 10 changed 
lines of code plus dropping a splitter on the form to do this.  Anyone who 
wants it in the meantime, with no support and with the understanding that 
this is in no way meant to be the real gambas IDE, let me know and I'll put 
it up on my site.

I can't even fathom how you managed to write this so cleanly, Benoit.  Thanks 
again.

Thought I'd post this information...although I don't believe anyone has encountered this problem.

I updated Mandrake from 9.0 to 9.1 prior to installing Gambas 0.57 and had a problem with the compiler not being able to find libfam.la.  I needed to ensure that the libfam0-devel-2.6.9-5mdk package was installed.  I don't believe that this is listed in the README as a dependency.

There is a bug, but in the property panel.

By default, each control has the background and foreground of its parent. 

Instead of displaying nothing in the background and foreground field in this 
case, the property panel displays the real color value.

So users are confused when they change the parent color and when they see the 
color of the children change in the same way !

Hi Saman,

I've finally understood what the bug you have found is.

This (stupid) bug appears only with mysql, not with postgresql - For Nigel: 
the bug is in the component, not in the driver :-)

The fix will be in the next version.

In the tool palette of gambas 0.57 at the bottom you'll find a "Workspace" 
component.  Drop it on your form, size it appropriately, and then put other 
controls inside it.  Voila, instant MDI app.  Better yet, if you already have 
controls on a form, you can cut and paste them into the Workspace control and 
it will all Just Work(tm), at least as far as I can tell.

However, if you're trying to build an Access lookalike you should take a look 
at the gambas database manager app, whose source comes with gambas.  It's 
already an MDI app written in Gambas and is about a third of the way towards 
where you want to get.  (Actually, to really duplicate Access' functionality 
you'd have to integrate most of the Gambas IDE's features as well as design a 
reporting component.  Not that I think it's impossible at all; I was just 
posting about such a possibility on another mailing list where someone was 
looking for long term Access alternatives.)

By the way, if you're not on the gambas-user list, please join.  Gambas-devel 
is meant for discussion of changes to Gambas itself, not programming in 
Gambas.  Gambas-user is for discussion of programming in Gambas and if we 
talk about this any more we should probably do it there.

Hi everybody,

I have uploaded a pre-version of gambas 0.58 there:

http://gambas.sourceforge.net/gambas-0.58pre1.tar.gz

Could SuSE users, gentoo users, and others that can't compile gambas because 
of a crash during the generation of *.info file download it, test it, and 
tell me the result ? 

I have changed the way dynamic libraries are loaded. I hope it will change 
something somewhere !

This is a good idea Jean-Fran?ois, send me address and password at

I think this is aproblem with the way SuSE and gentoo compile the KDE library. 
Could you tell me, on gentoo, how you choose the compilation parameters of 
the KDE libraries ?

Here is the example Code with the Error-Line marked.

STATIC PUBLIC SUB Main()
myform AS Form
myform = NEW Ftest1
myform.show()
END


PRIVATE myProcess AS Process

'------------------------------------------------

PUBLIC SUB _new()
  ME.Title = "Working with EXEC"
  ComboBox1.add("gambas")
  ComboBox1.add("ls")
  ComboBox1.add("kwrite")


END

'------------------------------------------------
' start it

PUBLIC SUB btnFire_Click()
  IF Trim(ComboBox1.Text) <> "" THEN

'Trim strips the whitespaces from a string

    TextArea1.Text = ""
    TextArea2.Text = ""

' call it
' ************  Here comes the error *******************
    EXEC ComboBox1.Text FOR READ WRITE AS myProcess
  ELSE
    TextArea1.Text = "please choose or enter a program to execute"
  ENDIF
END

'-------------------------------------------------------------

PUBLIC SUB btnClose_Click()
  ME.Close()
END


'------------------------------------------------
' if something is coming back
' the event 'Process.Write' of the class process calls this function

PUBLIC SUB Process_Write(sData AS String)
  TextArea2.Text = " Process '" & myProcess.command & "' " & sData
END

'------------------------------------------------
' if an error occurrs
' the event 'Process.Error' of the class process calls this function

PUBLIC SUB Process_Error(sData AS String)
  TextArea1.Text = " Process '" & myProcess.command & "' " & sData
END

'------------------------------------------------
' if the process is killed
' the event 'Process.Kill' of the class process calls this function

PUBLIC SUB Process_Kill()
  myProcess = NULL
END

Hi Claus,

EXEC needs a string array as its first argument, not only a string like SHELL.

Instead of doing:

  EXEC ComboBox1.Text FOR READ WRITE AS myProcess

do that:

  EXEC [ ComboBox1.Text ] FOR READ WRITE AS myProcess

[ & ] can be used for creating arrays: see the Array entry in the gambas 
encyclopaedia.
