O2 / IUP

[Aurel]

This allows programmers to work with large source code libraries, and still produce small binaries.

This sounds fine..

[JRS]

Charles,

The new Oxygen.dll no longer likes C #define.  

Code: OxygenBasic

1. includepath "C:\iup\include\"    
2. extern lib "iup.dll" cdecl    
3. include "iup.h"
4. end extern      
5.  

Update

I had to go back to the slightly modified iup.h (iup.o2h) for it to work.

Code: C

1. '===================================
2. 'ADAPTATION FOR OXYGENBASIC Dec 2012
3. '===================================
4. 'typedef struct Ihandle_ Ihandle;
5. 'typedef int (*Icallback)(Ihandle*);
6. typedef void IHandle
7. typedef sys  ICallback
8. '===================================
9.

Hi John,

I tested with the original IUP header. Are you sure the new DLL is in the Oxygen root folder?

I have posted a new Oxygen-in-progress including your demo as projectsb/IUP/jsdemo2H.o2bas

Your latest Oxygen-in-progress works fine. I'm not sure where the issue was. (too much on-the-fly updating perhaps)

[Charles Pegge]

Phew! I think it's called DLL hell. The gxo2 compiler looks for Oxygen.dll in the same folder as itself. If you compile to an oxygen-dependent binary then Oxygen needs to be included in the same folder as the binary.

And once again for JRS.

Code: [Select]

include "iup.inc"

iupOpen 0,0
select iupAlarm("iupAlarm test", "File not saved! Save it now?", "Yes", "No", "Cancel")
       case 1
          IupMessage ("Save file", "File saved successfully - leaving program")
       case 2
          IupMessage ("Save file", "File not saved - leaving program anyway")
       case 3
          IupMessage ("Save file", "Operation canceled")
end select     
iupClose


[JRS]

Thanks Peter!

Code: OxygenBasic

1. includepath "iup\"    
2. extern lib "iup.dll" cdecl    
3. include "iup.h"
4. end extern      
5.  
6.  
7. iupOpen 0,0
8. select iupAlarm("iupAlarm test", "File not saved! Save it now?", "Yes", "No", "Cancel")
9.        case 1
10.           IupMessage ("Save file", "File saved successfully - leaving program")
11.        case 2
12.           IupMessage ("Save file", "File not saved - leaving program anyway")
13.        case 3
14.           IupMessage ("Save file", "Operation canceled")
15. end select      
16. iupClose
17.

Hi,

The image shows some OXYGEN-IUP programmers, after their programming of a button bar.

Peter,

Should I assume that you think IUP is a dead-end for OxygenBasic programmers or did I miss something in the translation?

John

[Charles Pegge]

Another Oxygen update coming soon! COM (speech API) did not like the last one.

[JRS]

Are you speaking of COM in general or the IupOleControl control?

I know the IUP thread has taken center stage recently and I just want to make sure this announcement meant you were digging into the more advanced features of the IUP API. 

 

[Charles Pegge]

It misreads my SAPI headers - it should not affect IUP

[JRS]

Can you show me how I would use multiple DLLs and .h files with a program?

IE:

iup.dll
iupcontrols.dll
cd.dll
iupcd.dll

And the .h files that go with them. Look at the All Basic site BaCon OpenGL example.

Hi John,

like this:

extern cdecl lib "lib1.dll"
include "lib1.h"
extern cdecl lib "lib2.dll"
include "lib2.h"
extern cdecl lib "lib3.dll"
include "lib3.h"
end extern

This syntax is also supported:

extern cdecl
library "lib1.dll"
include "lib1.h"
library "lib2.dll"
include "lib2.h"
library "lib3.dll"
include "lib3.h"
end extern

[JRS]

This syntax is also supported:

Code: OxygenBasic

1. extern cdecl
2. library "lib1.dll"
3. include "lib1.h"
4. library "lib2.dll"
5. include "lib2.h"
6. library "lib3.dll"
7. include "lib3.h"
8. end extern
9.  

Thanks!

It doesn't get any easier than that.

@Peter - I think I figured out your shelf of skulls post. I took a peek at the buttonbar.c example you referred to and the menu definition example. Is that what reminded you of the shelf of skulls?
