If you mean[0], then yes, roughly. There was a StatusBar class from Raymond de Bruijne (Gambas2) which I changed to be more Gambas3. (However, I haven't worked on it since I posed that question because the answer kind of disappointed me. But looking at it again, it seems pretty plausible.) Anyway, do you want to see it? There are at least three versions of this class in use in Hans' projects and I couldn't find the good one just now... I'll finish the StatusbarForm idea and then publish the thing in a separate article... Regards, Tobi [0] http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=31629361 Tobi, Yes, that was the mention. Having re-read that thread (and I have no idea why the search I did failed for it?) and you comments above, it seems to be at the same state my old gb2 one was, wherever it is. Or probably a bit better, because if I recall correctly, I could not ever really work out what I was trying to achieve. Since I never got far, I sort of forgot it and got on with life. I remember thinking at the time that it was such a basic idea how come there wasn't a native one. Since then I have discovered that life on the planet has actually continued without it. But, in fact Some people seem to like this sort of thing. is exactly what happened this week. They want a status bar. It's no big deal really. I was just hoping that someone had one that might get them off my back. So, whenever. I had another go yesterday at creating a custom status bar control, but yet again, came up against the same problem of deciding what it is I actually want. I know some of the things I want: - an IDE configurable number of sub-panels, - automatic layout, including springiness for at least one of the subpanels, - user interaction with the statusbar to stretch a sub-panel relative to the others, - (biggy) event response, so when something happens in the application the app can raise an event handled by the statusbar to do/show something. Wow, that's much. All we started from was a container for some Labels. I have added the feature to automatically resize the labels (every label gets a float width relative to the container's width, zero meaning fit to the rest) when the container resizes and to put the container at the Form's bottom automatically. That's pretty much what we needed... The main program programmatically adds Labels and updates them through an interface of the Statusbar. I guess your last point can be done like I handle the two points above: create an observer (typically with After = True) for the Form your Statusbar lives in and then catch Resize events (in your case, you may add new events to the Form just to serve your Statusbar). I'm now struggling at incorporating the Statusbar into the IDE as the Statusbar class does not inherit any other class but internally manages a Panel. Labels are added to the statusbar via its Add() method and I don't think the IDE understands that if I declare the class _IsContainer = True. OTOH, if I inherit Panel, there would be things like StatusBar.Children being pulled into the interface which I need to keep away to make the class behave consistent. Do you have any ideas? p.s. It was 43 degrees here yesterday. That's Celsius, not Fahrenheit. Today is a bit better, it's 32 at 3pm. As such, I may have to go out now and find some small quantity of cold liquid refreshment, lest I dehydrate! :-) Funny, we have around 40 degrees Fahrenheit here :-) Regards, Tobi -- Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.

[Gambas-user] How do I limit directory access using the file open dialog?

Re: [Gambas-user] Native Complex type?
Le 21/12/2013 16:53, Tobias Boege a écrit : Hi Benoit, is it planned to support complex numbers in Val() or to have an IsComplex() function? No at the moment. It's a problem for Val(), because some people may assume that Val() only returns a Date, a Boolean, a Float or an Integer. I see the difficulties that come with this, like having to incorporate complex numbers into the interpreter directly and since Complex needs to be an object, intermixing objcts and native datatypes in the aforementioned functions, etc.. but I wanted to ask anyway. (Then we could also make Sqr() support complex numbers, etc.) It would unify the way we work with complex numbers even more which would be appreciated on our side.

[Gambas-user] Serial port control
G'day all: Now with Gambas 3 installed, I want to get on with porting my running software from VB6/Windows. It requires processing multiple streams of binary serial data from attached devices. The serial control in gambas 3 does not seem up to the job, in so far as the available properties lack the elements I use under VB MScomm. In addition to the basic ones, these are inbuffer.size, outbuffer.size, inbuffer.count, inputMode, input Len(gth), PortOpen and, in particular, R Threshold and S Threshold. The latter R/S Thresholds are very useful in allowing the software to get on with other processing while the buffers are filling - at least that is my understanding. I ask if whoever wrote the gambas serial control has any plans to expand it's functionality to the MScomm level in the foreseeable future or can someone point me to another more comprehensive control I could use with gambas?

Re: [Gambas-user] Serial port control
Randall: Thanks for responding. OK, I have looked at the stream functions: My question was, basically, how do I specify how many bytes I want to take in from a given serial port at each instance? For example, on one input I expect a continuous stream of 31 byte packets and I want to take them in for processing 25 (say) packets at a time, i.e. 775 bytes at a time. Now I don't much mind if I get a few bytes more or less because I can check for a remainder part-packet and put it on the front of the next nominal 775 byte intake - that's part of the processing software - but I don't want the CPU tied up with that port or stream between intakes of (about) 775 bytes. There are other input streams and data processing to attend to. I don't see how to do that with the stream functions - but maybe I'm not understanding how the stream works? I can see that I could (I think!) read a given number of bytes from a stream, but does that relieve the CPU from being tied up with that stream until I read another 775 bytes?

Re: [Gambas-user] Serial port control
It has been a long while since I have used the serial component of GB but I have a project starting in which I will need to re-acquaint myself with it. The stream can be setup as blocking or non-blocking. The PC uses either polling or interrupt when the port is opened. So trying to manage the serial port at the same level you would in on uC is pointless in most cases. Just set up the stream and read the bytes you need from there. If you're concerned about buffer overflow then you may want to close the port once you have read the bytes you need. Perhaps someone with more recent experience can help you more.

Re: [Gambas-user] Serial port control
Thanks Randall. I guess it's time to try it and play around a little, which I can't do for a few days. At the moment I'm trying to look ahead and see where problems might lie. When push comes to shove, I don't know how these things really work! I follow recipes! Don't really want to close the port as the data come in continuously as fast as the device can send them and I don't want to miss any. (It's attitude sensor data from an inertial management unit in a light aircraft). Same in principle with another continuous stream of binary GPS data with packets of 124 bytes coming in at a slower rate of, say, 4 Hz. How continuous it is would depend on the baud rate at which the port is operating. The RThreashold property of MScomm handles this issue very well. Doesn't trigger an event until the specified number of bytes is in the serial buffer.

I don't think there is an array in Gambas which lets you use its Count as index without raising an out of bounds error :-) (and you certainly mean Plan[0].Wall[Index]*.Created* = False or else, don't use a Struct.)

Re: [Gambas-user] Serial port control
I think the RTheshold of VB simply sets the byte count that must accumulate in the receive buffer before a comm event is triggered. It doesn't do anything else. In the background VB is still polling the buffer and looking at the byte count. You can do this in GB but you will have to write it yourself. You would need to simply use the read event on the comm object to test the byte count. I believe it triggers at 1 byte. Then use that to trigger your own custom event when your 124 bytes have arrived. You might also be able to talk Benoit into adding an RThreshold property. Seems like it might be handy At the very least 4Hz is very very slow for most computers. And setting up a 4Hz polling of the port wouldn't be hard at all.
