work in progress but now has slightly neater code and code to increment by any number of months (forward or backwards) and the same for years. That code looks slightly complicated but its to allow for leap years.

MoveYears( iIncrement), it has just occurred to me, could be implemented as:

Code: Select all

METHOD MoveYears( iIncrement ) CLASS CALENDAR

   ::MoveNonths( iIncrement * 12 )

RETURN nil

MoveMonths() could be implemented in a simpler manner if you don't want to allow maintining a highlight on a certain day of the month as a possibility.

Here is the code (dirty) as it stands:

Code: Select all

// Calendar.prg

#include "FiveLinuxDF.ch"
#include "hbclass.ch"

#define GTK_NORMAL 0
#define GTK_ACTIVE   1
#define GTK_PRELIGHT 2
#define GTK_SELECTED 3
#define GTK_INSENSITIVE 4

CLASS CALENDAR

DATA aDATEBUTTONS
DATA aDOW
DATA dAnchorDate
DATA iStartOfMonth
DATA iEndOfMonth
DATA grp_CALENDAR

METHOD New() CONSTRUCTOR
METHOD Show()
METHOD SetButtons()
METHOD SetAnchorDate( dDate )
METHOD MoveMonths( iIncrement )
METHOD MoveYears( iIncrement )

ENDCLASS

METHOD New() CLASS CALENDAR

::SetAnchorDate( DATE() )
::aDATEBUTTONS := ARRAY( 37 )
::aDOW := { "Sun", "Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri", "Sat" }

Return self

   ENDIF
   iCol += 50

      iRow += 30
      iCol := 20

Doug,

Thanks for sharing it!

Hi all

I discovered a small glitch in my code. It occurred when MoveMonths() was used to move backwards enough for iTemp to go negative. This of course only happened when the move was back more than 1 month (which couldn't happen in the version given above).

The problem is with the % operator.

-5 % 12 is giving -5 whereas I would have expected +7.

So the code can be corrected as follows. Replace:

Code: Select all

 iNewMonth := iTemp % 12

With:

Code: Select all

IF iTemp >= 0
   iNewMonth := iTemp % 12
  ELSE
   iNewMonth := 12 + (iTemp % 12 )
ENDIF
