What is ADO?

We use Mediator for our backend servers, but I would like to wean myself from those license fees, if possible.

Maurilio, I am able to run debugger, but sometimes I have problems. To get it to work similar to Clipper Debugger, compile .prg with /b switch. Include in your .lnk script debug.lib from the xharbour lib folder For borland linker, xHarbour v99.5, omit the -aa switch from the Ilink32 command line. Fo...

More testing with MSVC. I use dynamic calling of Image2PDF.dll for creating .pdf files. With Borland compiler / linker - - works no problem. With MSVC I get a gpf (from microsoft - not FWH GPF). Question - shouldn't my FWH .exe be able to call any .dll dynamically without regard to the contructs of ...

I use Image2PDF to convert .emf files (created by FWH previewer) into .pdf files - works well. Just a couple of changes in tpreview.prg to "capture" the .emf files while they are still alive. This works great for printing via FWH on internet apps as the cgi-program can invoke the report ob...

My testing continues of new FWH version. The addition of the _huge section resolved the link error - so far no unwanted side effects. Also, the code has not been executed, but I will continue to test and look for consequences. Now, I have a question regarding MSVC 6.0 and the xHarbour debugger. I ha...

new fivewin unresolved externals MSVC

I have just purchased new version of FWH. I'm trying to compile and Link with MSVC++ 6.0 (I'm normally a borland user). The compile step works but the link step has many unresolved errors. I'm using buildxm.bat to compile one of the sample programs. What am I missing? Here are the errors: ┌─────────...

I think the .exe which is spawned by the service should run continously controlled by some sort of loop or timer. I usually terminate the .exe via a 'trigger' such as writing a txt file from another process to instruct the loop to end. Note that the srvany.exe service process simply loads yourapplic...

Thanks. Currently I perform my printing using a .pdf tool that I think you may have alerted me about. Image2PDF.dll -- works wonderfully. I use the FWH report object - modified 2 lines of code to control the location and names of the .emf files, and then convert to .pdf documents and deliver via the...
