Thanks all, I got it to work using SetConsoleOutput.
UTF8ToConsole did not work for me.

[fpc-pascal] Trouble setting/getting ftVarBytes field data in TBufDataset
I've got trouble finding out how to fill and retrieve data for a
ftVarBytes field in a TBufDataset.
.AsString doesn't seem to work well - if I fill it with the string
How do I fill this field?
I get back
How
I tried SetData, which takes a buffer as data, so I tried filling a
PChar with the string data. Retrieving it leads to a big dump of memory,
so I wonder how you define the end of the buffer in the SetData call.
Hope somebody can point me to some documentation or tell me the proper
way to do this. I've looked at Delphi docs, but that dealt mostly with
general BLOB fields, don't know if that includes varBytes.
Below some test code and output:
program varbytesproject;
{$mode objfpc}{$H+}
{$APPTYPE CONSOLE}
uses
{$IFDEF UNIX}{$IFDEF UseCThreads}
cthreads,
{$ENDIF}{$ENDIF}
Classes, SysUtils,
{ you can add units after this }
DB, BufDataSet;
var
TestDataset: TBufDataset;
FieldDef: TFieldDef;
TestString: String;
TempPChar: PChar;
begin
TestDataset := TBufDataset.Create(nil);
FieldDef := TestDataset.FieldDefs.AddFieldDef;
FieldDef.Name := 'ftVarBytes';
FieldDef.DataType := ftVarBytes;
FieldDef.Size := 2;
TestDataset.CreateDataSet;
TestDataset.Open;
TestDataset.Append;
writeln('1. How do I fill an ftVarBytes field?');
Teststring:='How do I fill this field?';
writeln('2. Like this?');
TestDataset.FieldByName('ftVarBytes').Asstring := Teststring;
writeln('ftVarbytes.AsString: ' +
TestDataset.FieldByName('ftVarBytes').AsString);
writeln('3. Or like this?');
TempPChar:=PChar(TestString);
TestDataSet.FieldByName('ftVarBytes').SetData(TempPChar);
writeln('ftVarbytes.AsString: ' +
TestDataset.FieldByName('ftVarBytes').AsString);
TestDataset.Post;
writeln('4. Get data using this:');
writeln('ftVarbytes.AsString: ' +
TestDataset.FieldByName('ftVarBytes').AsString);
writeln('5. Or get data using this:');
TempPchar:='';
if TestDataset.FieldByName('ftVarBytes').GetData(TempPChar) then
begin
writeln('We filled TempPChar with: ' + TempPChar);
end
else
begin
writeln('The Getdata function didn''t work.');
end;
TestDataset.Close;
TestDataset.Free;
end.
Output:
1. How do I fill an ftVarBytes field?
2. Like this?
ftVarbytes field contains: How
3. Or like this?
ftVarbytes field contains: How
4. Get data using this:
ftVarbytes field contains: How
5. Or get data using this:

Re: [fpc-pascal] web app and application persistency
Hi: I send cookies to the client. One of those cookies is a "sessionID", a random number generated at login. My sequence is something like Login Client: username/password ->Login html button Server: run cgi app with username/password parameters -> ¿Valid user? -> generate sessionID, store in DB. Send sessionID to the client as a cookie. Transaction Client: Product -> Search product html button (sessionID is also sent to the server) Server: run cgi app with product/username parameter. sessionID is implicit, as any cookie. if username/sessionID from the client is the same as in the DB, send data to the client. The sessionID cookie will remain until logout or expire time. This way, you don't have to store password in html. The sessionID cookie must be random+hash, unique to every session. sessionID is sort of temporal password. Cliente: username -> Logout html button Server: run cgi app with username/sessionID.

[fpc-pascal] Cross Compiling from Linux to a Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6 target. How?
Thanks for the feedback everyone. I have a Mac on which I can run a native FPC/Lazarus environment for debugging purposes. My goal here is to add a cross compiling build for OS X along side existing Linux and Win32/64 targets so all our OS and CPU targets can be rebuilt at once. So, from what I gather, I can copy the SDK across from my (Leopard) Mac to the Linux build machine and I have found odcctools: http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/odcctools/trunk/ so I should be able to build the toolchain (as, ld). I don't need -Xg/dsymutils (because I using this as build system only) and I can add a clause to /etc/fpc.cfg to include the necessary search paths. I'll give it a go and report back. -b On 08/01/11 17:49, Bruce Tulloch wrote: > Is anyone on the list doing this?

In console programs, try UTF8ToConsole() function (unit FileUtil).
A string "created" outside of your code, use SysToUTF8() to convert in
a UTF8 and after UTF8ToConsole() to print on the console.

I think your best bet is to google general information about cross-compiling from Linux to Mac OS X. I think there is nothing FPC-specific about it, except for maybe pointing the compiler to the SDK (use the -XR command line parameter for that).

[fpc-pascal] Cross Compiling from Linux to a Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6 target. How?
Is anyone on the list doing this? If so, how did you set it up? The information on the FPC wiki and elsewhere in the lists is woefully out of date. Many thanks, Bruce. ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
