Can I use TXBrowse class from Resource?

[dutch]

I'm very impress with TXBrowse but I've used TWbrowse from Resource?
How can I replace TWbrowse from resource with TXBrowse?
If it's possible, could I have an example pls.

Regards,
Dutch

Dutch:

Try using

oBrw:CreateFromResource( 10 ) // 10 is your browse ID

Instead

oBrw:CreateFromCode()

Hello Dutch,

I see, you are changing from TW / TC-Browse
to xBrowse.
You can have a look at the topic DB-Tools.
It is a nice sample, what you can do.
In the moment, it is a little bit to early,
to put the source in the forum, because
it is still a lot to do.
It might give you a overview of the handling.

You should also change wbrowse to xbrowse in the resource file.

Hello NageswaraRao,

would you be so kind to post a little rc- and prg-file with a demo for
fwcodesnips.com.

Thanks in advance

Hello Stefan,

Thank you.
BTW, do you know how I could extend the VSX resource editor that I can select "TXBrowse"?
At the moment I can use copy and paste from a other project.
But it is not elegant.

Otto

Dear StefanHaupt,

Thanks, I've got it.

Dear Antonio,

In xbrowse.ch is not including REDEFINE command.
Have you done the transalator command for REDEFINE? or I have to do by ourselve.

Thanks&Regards,
Dutch

We are going to implement it asap,

[Otto]

Thank you, Antonio,

I am surprised you can do this without adding a own control to the TOOLBOX.
Great. Are you using VSX much?

Otto

You can do the same using Borland resources workshop

> Are you using VSX much ?

Sometimes, to learn how to use it.

Actually you can use the same command for resources also like this:

Code: Select all

@ 0,0 XBROWSE FIELDS <fileds> HEADERS <headers,...> PIXEL OF oDllg ALIAS <alias>

< your other code for other xbrowse set up if any >

oBrw:CreateFromResource( <ID> )   // instead of oBrw:CreateFromCode()
// do not use oDlg:oClient := oBrw

ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg CETNERED

When you use oBrw:CreateFromResource( <ID> ) the @ <row>,<col> are ignored. You have to use CreateFromResource( <ID> ) after all your other code speicifications for your xbrowse.

NageswaraRao,

We should better have a REDEFINE XBROWSE ... to avoid confusions
