Re: [Gambas-user] Gambas-Documentation

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

While Google translate and other online transaction tools are not perfect
we could try a few of them to see which combination of such tools makes
more sense for both the English side and the non-English side.

Keep in mind that the way we put words to our thoughts is also affected​ by
different patterns and experiences in all our lives as well as mood and
stress levels at the time of asking for info or documenting a piece of
code. Plus not all words have a direct equivalent in every language. So we
also have to have a balance between specifics and verbosity.

That's my 2 cents worth of wisdom anyways :)

Does the same behavior occur with a wired keyboard (not your wireless

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Ok.. Gambas3 run as root? Not a good idea. I realize it's a much needed
workaround but not the recommended one. I would go with what Cris suggested.
I've run Gambas3 3.9.2 on a Virtualbox VM of Ubuntu Budgie 17.04 and as a
normal user I've never had problems with the keyboard locking.

Is there something that might be misconfigured on your VM perhaps (I mean
on the Virtualbox settings)?

[Gambas-user] Support for new Packaging systems (Snappy and Flatpak)

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey guys,

This is by no means urgent, I'm just asking mainly out of curiosity.

There's been a lot of talk lately about new packaging systems mainly Snappy
(from Canonical - http://snapcraft.io/) and Flatpak (from Red-Hat/Fedora
but I also think they GNOME Foundation is behind them too -
http://flatpak.org/).

New features like application isolation and transactional updates, packaged
dependencies etc etc.

Is there any thought that Gambas will use those packaging systems in future
versions?

Is there any practical reason for getting Gambas and/or Gambas created
software to be packaged
with the new systems, or are we sticking with the already available
solutions?

Chime in everyone

Thanks
Dimitris

Re: [Gambas-user] qt5

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Are the qt4 webkit and qt5 webkit too different that we can't use a symlink
for qt4's webkit to point to qt5's webkit?

That way we could (theoretically) bridge the gap temporarily until qt5
becomes more stable.

Ian, what are your thoughts on that? I mean I know its hacky but could it
possibly work?

Re: [Gambas-user] new web page at gambas.sourgeforce.net has "fake" links

Just as an FYI there's a couple of typos on the title of the email.

It was reported that gambas.sourgeforce.net had fake links
when it should have been gambas.sourceforge.net

The first URL only has a generic landing page (thus the "fake" links)

Re: [Gambas-user] annoying glitch

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey Gary,

I assume you're using the two for loops to find which item on the source
listbox is selected and then removed after the addition to the second
listbox is done.
Gambas listboxes are a bit more flexible. You can get the index of the
selected item with  lstInCar.Index. If there is no item selected on the
listbox then the index is -1
If the Listbox is empty (ie no more items in it), lstInCar.Index becomes -1
again. To get the text that the current selected item has then you can use
lstInCar.Current.Text

So with this in mind your code can become:

Public Sub btnLeft_Click()
'if the lstInCar is not empty or if an item is selected
  If lstInCar.Index  -1 Then
  'Add the selected item to lstAtHome
  lstAtHome.Add(lstInCar.Current.Text)
  'Remove the item from lstInCar that you just added to lstAtHome
  lstInCar.Remove(lstInCar.Index)
  Endif
End

if you want to do the reverse (send an item back to lstInCar) you will have
to reverse the listboxes.

Depending on what behavior you want to achieve you can add the following
two lines after the EndIf
but BEFORE the End statement (so that the next two lines are within the
Sub):

  lstAtHome.Current.Selected = False
  lstInCar.Current.Selected = False

What these two lines will do is undo the selection from both listboxes just
in case the user decides to select something on both of them.

The code will finally become:

Public Sub btnLeft_Click()
'if the lstInCar is not empty or if an item is selected
  If lstInCar.Index  -1 Then
  'Add the selected item to lstAtHome
  lstAtHome.Add(lstInCar.Current.Text)
  'Remove the item from lstInCar that you just added to lstAtHome
  lstInCar.Remove(lstInCar.Index)
  Endif
  'Deselect items from both listboxes
  lstAtHome.Current.Selected = False
  lstInCar.Current.Selected = False
End

This piece of code works only for a simple list box where you can select
only one item at a time
For listboxes that allow multiple selections at a time the code will be a
bit different (but then we can
work on that a bit later).

I hope this helps you out in understanding Gambas a bit better.
Dimitris

 Hi
 I'm trying to follow a tutorial from Linux Format. I have 2 list boxes

For i = lstInCar.Count - 1 To 0 Step - 1
  If lstInCar[i].Selected Then

 it works fine except, If, and only if, I select the first item in the

 this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Hey Bruce,
In addition to all the good suggestions everyone is throwing in the
problem, you could use a CouchDB database on a different server and just
connect to it with a normal http connection if you're worried about file
hits on the sd card. Gambas supports JSON and the httpclient component
should work just fine for what you want it to do.

Hope this helps,
Dimitris

 You can use a named pipe : you create the node on the disk once (if you
 don't want to ruin the flash). All the data exchange will be done in
 memory by the system.

Re: [Gambas-user] A couple of questions about building web / cgi applications

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey Bruce,

Here's an example of a CGI app that I just made. I hope it helps and
doesn't confuse you more. I havent run it on an actual web server yet (just
on the embedded web server that the IDE has) but I guess it won't be hard
to plug it in to either Apache, Lighttpd or Nginx (whichever you want to
use).

If anyone has a better example by all means jump in :)

As for your second question, you might want to consider a database or a 3rd
program that would work as sort of a bridge/proxy between the two programs
(the CGI and the main program). That way even if the web interface gets
ddosed (or flooded due to an overzealous sensor), at least the main program
would be able to control the rest of the system.

Hope this helps
Dimitris

 Benoît,

 What I mean by main application is a GUI application that is always
 running, reading sensor data, controlling relays and updating the graphical
 user interface.  It needs to be as close to real-time as I can get.  By CGI
 module, I mean a CGI script that is invoked by web requests coming in to
 the web server, which would be a transient process.  It takes some
 parameters from the web request, reads or updates data from the main
 application, sends back an html response, and then terminates.

 I want them as separate processes so that if someone tries to DDOS the web
 interface, they (hopefully) won't kill the main application that needs to
 control stuff.

 I was hoping someone had an example of a CGI application they would be
 willing to share?

  I'm looking for some advice and maybe some code examples for a project

  Thanks to some great help from members of this mailing list, I have
  successfully compiled Gambas for the SOM.  The device will have a
  main GUI application that handles the user interface and all of the
  control logic.  However, it will also have a web interface for remote
  access to some of the control settings.
 
  Here are my questions:
 
  1) Does anyone have any code examples for CGI applications in Gambas?
  I know there is an option to use the Gambas interpreter to build
  ASP-like pages, but I would rather the web code be in compiled into a
  CGI module instead (for security reasons).  I've built CGI
  applications in VB6, so I have a fairly good understanding how CGI
  work in general.  I've read the Gambas docs on CGI, but I still don't
  quite understand it.
 
  2) What is the easiest way to exchange data (variables and arrays)
  between the CGI module, and the main application?  Using a file on
  disk is not a great option, since the device will be using flash for
  the file system, and these values will be changing several times a
  second.  That will kill the flash very quickly.

 I don't understand what you don't understand in Gambas and CGI.

 By using the gb.web component, your Gambas project becomes a CGI
 application (or CGI script or whatever you want to call it) :

 - the gb.web component takes the CGI environment variables and present
 them with a nice ASP-like interface.

 - The Request class analyzes the HTTP request for you: it can understand
 GET arguments, POST arguments, handle file uploads for you.

 - The Response class allows you to send a response with its Mime
 datatypes, and other custom HTTP headers.

 I don't understand your story of having a CGI module (what's that?) and
 a main application.

 So, please elaborate.

Re: [Gambas-user] Quickie on SELECT

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey Bruce,

You could try

SELECT CASE EVAL(hSomething.SomeArray.Exists(hSomething.Value))
  CASE True
Print Yes, value exists in hSomething
  CASE False
Print No, value does not exist in hSomething
  CASE Else
END SELECT

Putting CASE EVAL (if it's possible) to make SELECT check against the
results of the Eval Statements, would mean (as I understand it) that the
result of EVAL would need to be within a reasonable range so that it
doesn't raise any exceptions, and the same data type as the hSomething that
you have in your original example.

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Dimitris

[Gambas-user] Self-Signed SSL certificate in Gambas3 3.5.4 Webview

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey guys,

I'm using Gambas3 3.5.4 on Debian Jessie.

I want to login to a web app I'm working on with a self signed SSL
certificate.

I try to load the app on a webview component using a url starting with
https but it doesn't
show me anything, no error messages no nothing.

1) Is there a debug property or method on the webview component?

2) Where do I put the certificate files in order to get the program to
properly create the https
connection?

3) Is there an example on how to load an https page to the webview, just in
case I am doing something wrong?

By the way I've successfully logged in to gmail and watched a couple of
youtube videos so I know that the webview control can handle https
connections, so it must be that I am using a self-signed
certificate on this site.

Thanks in advance
Dimitrios

Re: [Gambas-user] Install from Ubuntu repo - several issues

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Dave,

The examples stored are in a folder with different permissions.
You need to save the example you're trying to a different location, ie to
your home directory.

After you do that the example will compile and run properly.

I hope this helps

 As far as I know Ubuntu 14.04 official repository has a very outdated

 Since Gambas 3.1.1, many bugs have been fixed and the latest stable
 version is Gambas 3.6.2

 I suggest you first remove the current install (if it is Gambas 3.1.1)
 and next install the most recent stable Gambas 3.6.2 from the
 Gambas-team PPA.

 The instructions to install latest stable from binaries (PPA) are in the
 Gambas wiki:
 http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/install/ubuntu#t2

 If after all this you still have problems with the examples just let us
 know.

Re: Issue 2, I've found that if you load an example and save it to another

I think that those 13 files are mostly all that's needed to put your

If you just want to get the binary into your target system or on a website
without going through a repository...
then you only need one.

Re: [Gambas-user] Issue 548 in gambas: complete code of htttp post example

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

I'm not sure there is a need for a re-write. Just some comments to explain
what the code does.

For example on the button_click event you send the parameters for the
webservice POST and the
actual message you are sending  is contained in the sCad string and the
message target is set in
the URL property (ie P.URL=http://myserver/myphpscript.php).

Now if you want to make a normal POST call to a web form you need to change
the message sent in sCad; if for example you have 2 fields name and email
the message becomes:

sCad=name=test1email=te...@test.com.

You also need to change the Post message so that the first parameter
changes from text/xml to
application/x-www-form-urlencoded

Depending on the site you might or might not get a reply back from the
server  to the POST
if you do then you need to look at the code in the P_Finished event. The
second IF block is specific
to the Web service data so comment it out but the rest is all you need.

I hope this helps (and doesn't confuse you more).

 Good question: both are named Enter (in french) on my keyboard too,

 You must assume that two physicals different keys should always have

Re: [Gambas-user] Obtain my IP with Gambas

you don't need a root account or root priviledges to get the IP address:
just do a

and just parse the IP from that line.
Note that eth0 is the name of your network interface.

Hope this helps to simplify things in your code.

Re: [Gambas-user] Controls with colorated background

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Antonio,
It could be the theme you're using. Change themes and see if you still get
the same behaviour.
If the colour on the control changes regardless of the theme you might have
to specify a white
background on the gridview

Regards,
Dimitris

 I don't understand what you mean. Background white is ok (any color

 background).

   I have just register to the mailing list because I was looking for
   information about this problem. I don't know if it's exactly the same
   problem that has geaplane, we have this color problem since 3.2
 version
   and ONLY with the gridview.
  
   I attach some screenshots.
  
  
   Debian Wheezy/Sid with 3.4.1 gambas version.
  
 
 
  Since Gambas 3.3.0, a GridView highlights a column when it is sorted.
 
  Since Gambas 3.4.0, the column is not highlighted if it is the only one
  column in the GridView.
 
  So you have to upgrage to Gambas = 3.4.0 to get the fix.

Re: [Gambas-user] Class Window in gb.qt4 vs gb.ncurses

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Creating a report from a non-graphical method might prove difficult.

If you are planning on using something like report from an HTML template on
a PDF File you either need to make sure you can generate a PS or PDF file
or you can use wkhtmltopdf https://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/ to
generate your PDF file then shell to lpr to send this to your printer.

Theoretically this could work but it will depend on what HTML features
wkhtmltopdf https://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/ supports and how you
make your HTML template.

Hope this helps.

  Recently a friend of mine reported an issue that I'm not sure how to
  explain correctly.
 
  He is making a terminal program that needs to print stuff on a real
  printer, so it needs the gb.qt4 component to get access to the Printer
  object. But also he needs to use gb.ncurses to do some neat
 presentation
  in a terminal in a kind of interactive mode. Problem arises when the
  *Window* class in gb.ncurses collides with the same class name in
 gb.qt4
  (needed to gain access to printer functions) It seems that window class
  in gb.qt4 surpasses the one in gb.ncurses.
 
  So, is it a known problem? Does anyone realized this incompatibility
  when using both components at the same time?
  Is there a way to use the printer without using gb.qt4?
 
 
 
  I never thought of using a graphical component together with
 gb.ncurses. I
  never intended that :-)
 
  Yes. The point is, how it is supposed to do printing from within
  gb.ncurses without using the Printer object (found only inside graphical
  components)?
 
  We then should need to do this through CUPS or something, doesn't it?
 
  The fact is my friend is trying to print a kind of report based in his
  own classes that uses Draw and Paint to actually draw a report in a
  drawing area when using the full program version, and the file
  representing the report itself is interpreted and printed from an
  stripped out version of the program that only works in console mode
  (interactive curses interface). The logic of printing is the same for
  both programs, so qt4 is needed to do all the stuff. Sources here [0].
 
 
  [...]
 
  What do you mean actually by surpasses? Is there an incorrectly
  overridden error or does the gb.qt4 Window just override[0] the
 gb.ncurses
  one? If the latter is the case, you can try to disable gb.ncurses and
  Component.Load() it manually at startup?
 
  Right, the latter is the case. It makes them incompatible with each
 other.
 
 
  I promise that future control classes and a future Window class (using
 the
  CDK) are more built like their gb.qt4 models but for now think of
 gb.ncurses
  as a component that conflicts with other graphical components. I don't
 think
  compatibility can ever be achieved, though.
 
  I think so, as well... but gb.ncurses programs would need to have a way
  to print things. I remember old clipper database programs they were able
  to print some kind of text based reports. It would be great if printing
  could be based in actual drawing routines as qt4 does. But I understand
  it probably never ever could be achieved.
 
 

 Priting from the command-line with cups (a five second google search!)

 http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/options.html

 Then you just have to generate your report in a format understable by
 cups (PS, PDF, JPG mainly I think).

Re: [Gambas-user] ProgressBar Change Event

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Demosthene,

Since the value of the progressbar cotnrol is just between 0 to 1
you can probably try

IF ProgressBar1.Value = 1 THEN ProgressBar1.label=Process complete


You can probably do this within the ProgressBar1_Change() event
assuming that the event is going to get fired when an input changes
the Value property of the control.

I hope this helps

Re: [Gambas-user] Unable to split string containing ascii characters

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey Titan,

Using the Split function is not the only option if you want to parse data
from a string

There's also Mid$, Left$, Right$ InStr, RInStr and other functions that you
use to extract
specific data from a string. Scan is another function that you can use to
split strings into
pieces but it's not as widely used.

Check it out here:  http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/lang/scan

If you're the one generating the string in the first place the best way to
go about
extracting data from a string is if you create some kind of an identifiable
beginning
and end of the important information in your string.

if you're not the one generating the string in question you need to see if
there is
an identifiable pattern so you can use InStr or RinStr to find the pattern
in the entire
string and then chop it off accordingly.

It's easy to get frustrated but as in every programming language out there
there's always
more than just one way to skin a cat

For your convenience here is a list of all the string related functions and
their descriptions
http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/cat/string?v2

Hope this helps

Regards,
Dimitris

1) How can I create a daemon in gambas2 (gambas2.21 on Debian Lenny)?
   Would Application.Daemon=True be enough?

2) Would my daemon be ran as root? if not is there a way for Gambas to set
that when it creates the debian package?

Thanks in advance

   so a
   DIM htmpArray as integer[]=  [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]

   no a dynamic ... look at the bottom

or you could also set ranges

Select Case BMI

  Print BMI is Less than 25
Case 25
  Print BMI is 25
Case 26 to 35
  Print BMI is MORE than 25

Depending on your code's structure and style either one of those workarounds
will work.
 I tested them myself using Gambas2 2.19 on Linux Mint 9

Re: [Gambas-user] gbr3: no project file in '/usr/local/bin/gambas3'

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Matti,

first go to /usr/local/bin

then type gbr3 and then press enter

If you get something like this:

gbr3: no archive file

then gambas is located in /usr/local/bin/

and you can try this

gbr3 gambas3.gambas
(since you're already in /usr/local/bin/)

I hope this takes you a bit further

Dimitris

Re: [Gambas-user] Structure support in Gambas 3

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Benoît,
What would happen if there was a case you had program A with 3.x
dependencies and Program B running 3.y dependencies?
Or are you only referring to complete Gambas 3.x and 3.y installations on
the same machine?

Regards,
Dimitris

2010/5/27 Benoît Minisini gam...@users.sourceforge.net

   To define a structure, you must declare it inside a class or a module
   that
  
   way:
   Public StructStructName
   Var1  AsType1
   Var2  AsType2
   End Struct
 
  This means you cannot define the struct itself at runtime like an
  object, right? You must know the struct's composition of variables in
  advance? So the program could not react freely to a change in the
  database? (Don't know how to express it more clearly...)

 Of course, as for the other classes. If you don't know the structure of
 your
 data at compile time, you must use something else like a collection.

 Maybe there will be a trick (not possible at the moment), like creating a
 gambas project at runtime, compile it, and loads it as a component. But it
 would be weird to do that.

 
  But it's great, I find this practical as well when you include external
  functions from the system.
 
   ability to release incremental versions of Gambas (3.1, 3.2...) that
   won't be just bug fixes like in the 2.x versions.
 
  I don't quite see what you mean by that. Do you intend to create an
  update mechanism that loads new libraries?
 

 No. I just want to be able to release new features faster in Gambas 3. But
 that will mean that:

 - If X  Y, 3.X must be able to run programs in 3.Y, maybe with a
 recompilation.
 - But not the contrary. 3.Y may not be able to run 3.X programs. Users will
 have to upgrade.
 - You won't be able to install 3.X and 3.Y on the same machine.

 Package dependencies must be more precise (depends on 3.1 gambas runtime
 instead of depends on any 3.x gambas runtime).

 Only the 4.0 will be able to break the backward compatibility, by removing
 instructions, features, changing the meaning of them...

 Regards,

Re: [Gambas-user] Gambas for windows, how?

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Tomas,
What you could do in this case, is setup a machine with Debian or Ubuntu on
the customer's premises, (It doesn't have to be a top notch machine) and
setup x2go and he can use the application from Windows by logging in to the
debian machine using SSH and x2go which is a terminal server (kinda like RDP
for windows).

Another solution is to create a Virtual Machine (I usually use Virtualbox)
of Ubuntu or debian on the customer's fastest machine enable RDP and login
with Windows Remote Desktop client and use Gambas that way.

I hope this helps

Re: [Gambas-user] Too many open files error message

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey Ricard,

just as a quick workaround try replacing the Open - Close code with

File.Save(sFilename, sHTML)

You might circumvent the Too many files open error, which I am unsure why
it comes up.

Perhaps the total number of open files within your project is too much or
the opening and closing
of your files happens too fast and some of the files don't get the chance to
close properly...
just guessing here...

I hope this helps

Re: [Gambas-user] User components replaced by Libraries in Gambas 3

   there is a good reason not to.
 
  I agree too.

   lib is where python and ruby libraries go, even though technically

  Probably I am wrong, but I don't see all this importance about keeping
  some files in .../share just because they are architecture independent.
  I don't see any advantage in this convention; it would be more logical
  if .../share contained files shareable by different applications on the

   I don't want to multiply the directories where libraries must be

   I think there is a good reason for the three directories suggested

   It is important to search both /usr/ and /usr/local/ to provide a
   clear separation between default libraries managed by the OS
   installation system (apt-get, rpm, or whatever)
   and third-party libraries installed by the system admin, plus it is
   useful to have a third directory under $HOME so libraries can be

  Agreed again.
 
  And now a little curiosity: would be those libraries *true* executable?

 They are.

  I mean - I code a project with some class, and the main class contains
  code to test the other ones. Then I can use the project as a library,
  and still use it as a standalone program to test the library at any
  time. In addition, the project/library can be used to configure it... I
  mean - I use, say, an SMTP library. In my final application, instead of
  asking the user a lot of parameters about the network, I can simply
  SHELL .../libsmtp.gambas to let the library ask and store all the
  relevant parameters and preferences...
 
  Regards,
  Doriano
 

 There is no difference at all between a library and a executable. A library
 is
 just an executable that is used as a component by another executable.

 So you can do what you want!

Re: [Gambas-user] EOF problem

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Ed,
if reading a text file and extracting information from it is what you're
trying to do, why not just use

tmp = File.Load(Fname)

File.Load is documented over here
http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/comp/gb/file/load

after loading the contents of Fname in tmp you can do your magic, without
using an OPEN statement and a loop
unless the file you're reading is a few megabytes, File.Load should be
sufficiently fast to cover your needs.

I am sure that there's more than one ways to skin a cat, and professionals
didn't exactly drop out of the sky one day
knowing everything about programming :) It takes practice and more practice
and even more practice :)  we all learn
in different ways and we're all here to help each other :) Whether we are
professionals,amateurs hobbyists or plain curious

As they say in my country, One hand washes the other and both wash the face
:)

Hope this helps

twopil...@interisland.netwrote:

 Hi all:

 A couple of comments about the discussions below:

 1.  The test program was written with EOF at the start, because the
 actual program I am working on has this structure, for reading in
 multiple lines of text:

 WHILE NOT EOF(tfile)
(bunch of code for reading the lines in and putting the data in the
 proper places)
 WEND

 CLOSE #tfile

 When that failed, I wrote the test program to see if I was actually
 sometimes getting an EOF immediately after opening the file, since the
 first thing WHILE does is test EOF.

 2.  Clearing label1 after every button click is just a little
 insurance.  Given that things weren't working as expected, I wanted to
 make sure what I saw in label1 was new info, not something left from the
 previous button click.  I know that shouldn't be necessary, because the
 IF-THEN-ELSE structure will always write to the label - but then there
 shouldn't be an immediate EOF either.

 3.  Using Fname like that is just a little habit I've developed.  It
 allows me to try a different file by commenting out one setting of Fname
 and writing a new one, without erasing the previous one.  And it makes
 the OPEN statement more compact and easy to read.  It is also sometimes
 useful to put such equates all in one place, so it's easy to find and
 change parameters, rather than rummaging around in the code.  You are
 correct, it is sort of a waste if I am only using the variable once.  In
 my actual program, Fname also gets used when the database gets modified
 and the file then has to be re-written.

 I am not a professional programmer, so I'm sure I have some ways of
 doing things that make professionals cringe!

 Thanks again for thinking about my problem!

 Ed K.

  Hi Ed,
  I figured it out.
  First of all, depending how the text file was emptied/created, the
  contents may not be truely empty.
  Gedit for example leaves the 0A (end-of-line) character in the 'empty'
  file. This is recognised by eof() as a character, so, end-of-file is
 not
  found.
  I am not sure if this can be considered a bug in Gambas, but it does
  mean an eof() is only good for preventing read errors, and is not
  reliable for testing if a file is empty.
 
 
 
 
  Just breaking in to say that a file with a EOL in it is not an empty
  file - it is a file with an empty line in it...
 
 
 
  Your correct, I agree completely, but the original code Ed supplied, '
  IF Eof(tfile) ' cannot work , as it checks eof before a read.
  When I saw he was using eof() that way, and knowing empty files are not
  always empty, I thought I had found his problem, so I just added a bit
  of code that should have got around it.
 
  I am sure you will agree, that, whatever other problems he may have,  he
  needs not to use eof() the way he is.
 
 
  Here is the original code. I think it is perfectly right:
 
  PUBLIC SUB Button1_Click()
 
 DIM tfile AS File
 DIM Fname AS String
 
 Fname = /home/us/Documents/testdat.txt
 
 tfile = OPEN Fname FOR READ
 
 label1.Text = 
 
 IF Eof(tfile) THEN
label1.Text = EOF
 ELSE
LINE INPUT #tfile, label1.Text
 END IF
 
 CLOSE #tfile
 
  END
 
 
 
  If eof() is not checked *before* reading, then when? I see only two
  things I would not do (but it depends a lot). First, why use the fname
  variable, if it is used only once... second, why set label1.text if that
  .text will be anyway written shortly later?
 
  But, apart from these two very little things, that can also have some
  good reason, the rest of the code is the only possible, I think. Note
  also that label1.text can get 3 different values: EOF is the file is
  empty;  if the first line of the file is empty; something else if the
  first line of the file contains some data. These three cases cover all
  the cases we talked about (empty and not empty files), and I think our
  friends know what 

Re: [Gambas-user] EOF problem

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Ed can you try this and tell us if it still doesn't work?

PUBLIC SUB Button1_Click()

  DIM tfile AS File
  DIM Fname AS String
  Dim temp AS String

  Fname = /home/us/Documents/testdat.txt

  tfile = OPEN Fname FOR READ

  label1.Text = 

  IF Eof(tfile) THEN
 label1.Text = EOF
 Print EOF
  ELSE
 LINE INPUT #tfile, temp
 Print temp
  END IF

  CLOSE #tfile

END

Watch the IDE's debug window to see what's being printed as the file is
being read

If this doesn't work too then you could try to update your version of
Gambas2 since
the latest stable version is 2.20.2

I hope this helps

 Thanks for the quick reply!

 1.  The problem is independent of the contents of the text file.

 2.  I tried a more complicated test program in which there are TWO
 buttons, and TWO different text files.  This behaves similarly;  most of
 the time, failure of one button/file will be  accompanied by  failure of
 the other, but not always.   Very occasionally, one button/file will
 work, one will fail.

 3.  According to Synaptics Package Manager I have the latest version of
 Gambas available, called 2.8.2-1build1 - if there is a newer version,

  Hi!
 
  I'm having a problem reliably reading a text file.
 
  I am using:
 
  Panasonic CF-51 Toughbook
  Ubuntu 9.04 , Kernel 2.6.28-18
  Gambas 2.8, QT
 
  Below is the code for a test program which demonstrates the problem.
  This is a simple form, with one button, and one label. The only code is
  the Button1_click event shown.  The file testdat.txt contained in
  Fname is a text file with one short line of text, created with GEDIT.
 
  One would expect that clicking Button1 would open the file, read the
  line of text, and place it into label1.  Indeed, this is exactly what
  happens roughly 4 times out of 5.  However, sometimes the file comes up
  empty, with an immediate EOF.  When the program is first started from
  the IDE, if it works correctly the first time, it will do so every time
  the button is clicked.  However, if it fails (indicates EOF) the first
  time, it will fail everytime the button is clicked.  Stopping the
  program and restarting it will roll the dice anew.  There does not seem
  to be any pattern to the failure.  It might happen twice in a row, it
  might not happen for 10 starts.
 
  Does anybody have any ideas?  Is this an Ubuntu issue?

Re: [Gambas-user] automatic completion of textbox with mysql data

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Vasilli,

perhaps you want to try this one

rs33 = MODMain.$Con.exec(select * from Aplianikis where  
Left$(Eponimia,1)   = '  Left$(tEponimia.Text, 1)  ')
ListBox1.Add = rs33!Eponimia

I hope this helps

Dimitris

 Is there a simple way to use automatic completion in a program?

Re: [Gambas-user] TreeView.Count value differs using qt rather than gtk

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Benoît,

Perhaps another approach would be to get rid of the Count property and
create a Count method that would count the children of a
given root in the control (and optionally all it's branches).

for example

/ (root)
item1
item2--item3
|-item4
|-item5
|-item6
item7

The way I propose the Count method to work would be something like this (if
my logic is not sound stop me anytime)

Count(root as String, branches as Boolean) AS integer

so if you were to call the method for Treeview1 with with the first root and
not counting the branches it would look something like this

countMyTreeItems = Treeview1.Count(/, false)
and for this example countMyTreeItems would be 3

but if you were to call the count method for item2 it would be like this

countMyTreeItems = Treeview1.Count(/, true)
and for this example countMyTreeItems would be 4

I don't know if you're still faced with the same obstacles in both GTK and
Qt

Hopefully this proposed approach makes sense and helps a bit more.

Dimitris

Re: [Gambas-user] gtk error when input greek letters in textbox

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Demosthenes,

I think it is because Greek letters are unicode characters
and unicode characters count as double and therefore any split will
be difficult to work with the usual string manipulation functions

The recommended way to split a string including unicode characters
according to the documentation, in this page

http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/cat/string

is to use the String class.

The String Class is described in this part of the documentation

http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/comp/gb/string

I hope this helps
Keep up the good work

Regards,
Dimitris

 Hi,

Re: [Gambas-user] drove me crazy

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Charlie, Benoit,

Wouldn't something like that usually work?

PUBLIC SUB Main()
DIM col1 AS NEW Collection
DIM col2 AS NEW Collection
DIM sKey AS String
Dim Counter as Integer
 col1.Add(1, one)
 col1.Add(2, two)
 col1.Add(3, three)
 col1.Add(4, four)
 PRINT Returns the key of the last read or last enumerated element. 
  FOR Counter = 0 to col1.Count
 sKey = col1[Counter].Key
 PRINT sKey   =   sElem
 col2.Add(sElem, sKey)
  NEXT
END

The documentation mentions that a Collection acts like a read/write array
so even though the workaround isn't very elegant, would it work?

Dimitris

   Salut Dimitris,
  
   no can't work like that , sElem is 'only' a String.
  
   It is like written in the doc,
   Returns the key of the last read or last enumerated element.
   The  problem is, I think, that the Debug-Window loops the collection,
   (every time I move in the collection), to refresh all members, so when
 I
   try to set the 'sKey = col1.Key' the last element was read and its KEY
   returned.
   The Watch-Window shows the right value. But also the col1 collection in
   the Watch-Window 'derange' to find the right col1.key
  
 
  Yes, that is exactly the problem. But I don't see any good fix for Gambas
 2 at
  the moment. For Gambas 3, I can change the behaviour of Collection.Key so
 that
  it returns the last enumerated element, not the last read one (the
 debugger
  does not enumerate the collection, it just read it).
 
  Regards,
 

 Salut Benoit,

 I'v looked in the IDE. I also don't see where we can stop/arrange that.
 So I think we should add a warning , to the documentation!

Re: [Gambas-user] sdl.sound and total length of a track

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Alessandro,
to get the length of an MP3 file (since gb.sdl.sound works primarily with
mp3s)
I would personally write an ID3Tag module to get the mp3's length and then
load it
through gb.sound.sdl afterward.

or if you want you could also explore the option of using an external player
for your
program...

For an internet radio program I wrote I used xmms2d to play the songs and
that's what I use to get
the length and the current position of the played mp3.

perhaps you can use something similar with either mplayer or mpg123

I hope this helps,

Re: [Gambas-user] Problem with tableview when in edit mode

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Doriano,

from the sample project you posted, I can verify the behavior you described
when you use the arrow keys.
If you click on individual cells it jumps fine. But if you try and type
something on one cell and then click on the next one
the text you typed before disappears.

So perhaps a few more changes happened in the tableview control from 2.0 to
2.15 (the one you upgraded to) that are
not yet documented and you just might have to consider using a different
approach.

I use Debian Lenny 5.0.3 and Gambas 2.16

I hope this helps.

Dimitris

 I am modifying an old program, which uses a TableView to construct an
 invoice.
 The tableview is almost always in edit mode.

 With gambas version 2.0.0, the original version I used to write the
 program, there is no problem (not this one).

 Now I upgraded to gambas v. 2.15 (debian package gambas2 2.15.2-1), running
 on a debian stable release.

 When in the tableview (in edit mode) I press an arrow key, the cursor slips
 on every possible cell in the request direction, until it finds the end of
 the tableview. But this is not enough: if the cursor key is Left or Right,
 the cell walking goes even further, wrapping to the next or previous row and
 restarting.

 I created an executable, and it behaves the same.

 Then I copied the executable to another machine, having gbx2 version 2.0.0,
 and the problem does not show up.

 The program uses explicitly QT; both machines have libqt-mt.so.3.3.8
 installed, and the same debian stable os, and I use both machines from a
 third machine running an X11 server (XMing). So it seems the problem is
 related to gambas.

 I send a sample project that shows the problem. Launch the application,
 click on the Tableview to focus it, and press a cursor key. The cursor will
 travel in the requested direction 'til the end of the grid.

 What can I do about this? I was very very reluctant to upgrade gambas; but
 I reached a point where I could no more install or upgrade my system. Even
 when trying to install a simple htop(1) from debian repositories, I was told
 to upgrade some fu*ing library, which in turn meant to upgrade gambas, which
 in turn meant to upgrade QT, GTK, poppler, libc, libc-bin... well,
 *hundreds* of packages. I will contact the debian mantainer about this - I
 don't care about postgres, firebird, curl, smtp, opengl, sdl, v4l, xml and
 things. It seems that to install gambas on debian one must pull in all the
 world. The other machine, having the old version of gambas, has no problems
 - I copied the gambas binaries directly, instead of installing them from
 packages. I can install and upgrade, and everything runs smoothly. Sorry for
 the debian-related blow.

 Doriano

Re: [Gambas-user] Problem with tableview when in edit mode

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Doriano,

On my system, when I use the mouse and click on a different cell it jumps
just fine.
The behavior (the error) that you described occurs when I use the cursor
keys.

What I meant by different approach was perhaps you should use something else
other than the GotFocus event and LAST.Edit.  if it works on 2.0 but doesn't
work
in 2.15, 2.16 and 2.18 (Charlie users 2.18, I use 2.16 and the problem is
probably
not solved in 2.17) then it seems to me (and it's just my opinion) that your
code
needs to be somewhat revised.

BTW 5.0.3 is the latest Debian stable (Check
http://www.debian.org/CD/http-ftp/#stable).
Perhaps we use different repositories.

Regards,
Dimitris

  Perhaps this is because there is no save event implemented. But the

  changing the focused cell with the cursor keys, do you see something

  If all gambas versions above 2.0.0 have the problem, I stick with 2.0.0.
  If the problem are QT libraries, I change them. But surely I don't want

  I am modifying an old program, which uses a TableView to construct an
  invoice.
  The tableview is almost always in edit mode.
 
  With gambas version 2.0.0, the original version I used to write the
  program, there is no problem (not this one).
 
  Now I upgraded to gambas v. 2.15 (debian package gambas2 2.15.2-1),
 running
  on a debian stable release.
 
  When in the tableview (in edit mode) I press an arrow key, the cursor
 slips
  on every possible cell in the request direction, until it finds the
 end of
  the tableview. But this is not enough: if the cursor key is Left or
 Right,
  the cell walking goes even further, wrapping to the next or previous
 row and
  restarting.
 
  I created an executable, and it behaves the same.
 
  Then I copied the executable to another machine, having gbx2 version
 2.0.0,
  and the problem does not show up.
 
  The program uses explicitly QT; both machines have libqt-mt.so.3.3.8
  installed, and the same debian stable os, and I use both machines
 from a
  third machine running an X11 server (XMing). So it seems the problem
 is
  related to gambas.
 
  I send a sample project that shows the problem. Launch the
 application,
  click on the Tableview to focus it, and press a cursor key. The cursor
 will
  travel in the requested direction 'til the end of the grid.
 
  What can I do about this? I was very very reluctant to upgrade gambas;
 but
  I reached a point where I could no more install or upgrade my system.
 Even
  when trying to install a simple htop(1) from debian repositories, I
 was told
  to upgrade some fu*ing library, which in turn meant to upgrade gambas,
 which
  in turn meant to upgrade QT, GTK, poppler, libc, libc-bin... well,
  *hundreds* of packages. I will contact the debian mantainer about this
 - I
  don't care about postgres, firebird, curl, smtp, opengl, sdl, v4l, xml
 and
  things. It seems that to install gambas on debian one must pull in all
 the
  world. The other machine, having the old version of gambas, has no
 problems
  - I copied the gambas binaries directly, instead of installing them
 from
  packages. I can install and upgrade, and everything runs smoothly.
 Sorry for
  the debian-related blow.
 
  Regards,
  Doriano
 
 
 
  No same with
 
  2.18.0
  Revision: 2447
 
 
 
 Sorry Charlie - I don't understand... no what? :-)
 Does the cursor travel a lot, or the 2.18 version is exempt (ie, has no
 bug?)?

 Thank you,

Re: [Gambas-user] 2 forms closing at the same time. Is it a bug?

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey Toni,

Fmail closes because it was loaded last.
If you move FMain.Show first ie

  FMain.Show
  Form1.Show
  Form1.closein(8)

then FMain remains after Form1 closes

I tried your program in Debian Lenny 5.0.3 in Gambas 2.16

It should work in 2.17 as well but give it a try

I hope this helps

Dimitris

 Hi,
 I'm not sure whether this is a bug or it's me doing something wrong...

 When I want to show two (or more) Forms from a module set as Startup
 class in its main function,  whenever a ME.close is called within one of
 the forms, the other(s) one gets closed too.
 To me this isn't the expected behavior... Just one of them should get
 closed (the ME part is what made me expect it).

 I attach a simple project to illustrate my point, but basically it's as
 follows:

 1st.- Module1 ( as startup class)
 PUBLIC FUNCTION Main()

  Form1.Show
  FMain.Show

 END

 2nd.- In Form1 ME.Close is executed

 3th.- The FMain form gets closed too and the application finishes.

 Instead I would expect Fmain not being closed and the application left
 running until Fmain gets closed by its own means.

 Regards,
 Toni


 P.S.: I'm testing it in an Ubuntu 8.10 64bits with Gambas version 2.17

Re: [Gambas-user] string conversion

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey Matti,

you might want to roll a string conversion function of your own.
The Replace function might be of particular use to you.

You can read about it over here
http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/lang/replace

and you can also find all the other string related functions over here
http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/cat/string

if for example you want to replace all the spaces in your string with %20
you would call

'String array that will hold the characters you want to replace
Dim tmpChar as NEW String[]
Dim iterator as Integer
Dim sFilename as String

'the value of your sFilename
sFilename = /home/username/Meine Bilder/öffentliche Fotos übertragen/015
das Schönste.jpg

'Add the characters you want to replace
tmpChar.Add(ö)
tmpChar.Add(ü)

'Loop through the array and replace the string characters that correspond to
the array characters
'with their hexadecimal values precedded by a % sign
FOR iterator = 0 to tmpChar.Count -1

'set the string equal to the resulting string from the Replace$ Function
 sFilename = Replace$( sFilename,tmpChar[iterator],% 
Hex$(Asc(tmpChar[iterator])))

NEXT

'to show you the finished string
PRINT sFilename

so you could also just make a small array with all the characters you want
to
change and then do a sequence of Replace$ calls replacing them with


I hope these guidelines help you more (and confuse you less)

Regards
Dimitris

 Well, after some thoughts, I can answer myself.

 I tried this example:

sChar = Mid$(sFilename, i, 1)

i = i + 1

 But if you have better ideas, you're welcome!

Re: [Gambas-user] Breaking processes

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

 Hey M,

to stop the execution of a for loop all you have to do is check for a
condition then use break

for example


PUBLIC SUB FCopy()
DIM i AS Integer
Dim stopLoop as Boolean
DIM filepaths AS String[]
' the array filepaths is filled with contents
FOR i=0 To filepaths.Count-1

if stopLoop = False THEN
   SHELL cp -ffilepaths[i]   /home/destination
Else
   BREAK
ENDIF
NEXT

I hope this helps

Re: [Gambas-user] make Label background from Database field

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Vassili,

Going back and forth through the whole thread I can also see that
change_bgcolor is not
as efficient as it could be simply because it's doing a loop looking through
all the controls
trying to match the desired control's name.

for change_bgcolor  I would suggest this

 Public SUB change_bgcolor(pos as Integer)
   SELECT CASE pos
 CASE 1
Label1.Background = Color.Red
 CASE 2
Label2.Background = Color.Red
.
.
.
.
.
 CASE 100
   Label100.Backround = Color.Red
 CASE ELSE
   END SELECT
 END

I know this looks tedious to code but the reason why I recommend this is
that with the SELECT CASE, change_bgcolor would do 3 moves in every case
instead of going through the 100 labels you have in your Camp Ground
Scheduling application.

As for the Result Not Available message,

let's try this; replace everything from the WHILE line up to the WEND line
with this

   'while the record index is less than the total count of records
   DO WHILE rsThesi.Index  rsThesi.Count

   'change the background color of the label that's in a position reported
in rsThesi!thesi
change_bgcolor(CInt(rsThesi!thesi))

   'move to the next Record
  rsThesi.MoveNext()
   LOOP

if you still get the Result Not Available error then try replacing
rsThesi.Count with an integer
value less than your total records for this query (For example 10) and see
what you get for that.

I hope this helps. Keep up the good work
Hope we can see the finished project soon with screenshots and all :)

Regards,
Dimitris

   Surely something like that has to be easier and surely much better

   Yes and no
  
  
   I didn't ask you.
  
  True, and neither Vassilis asked you something... you can't understand
  him, but I can understand you. In one of your last mail you noticed that
  data controls don't have all the properties as other textboxes, such
  alignment and so on. Be prepared for other surprises. Everybody would
  love to have controls with lots of properties in order to do everything
  you want, but this is impossible (can you believe it? Once you have put
  100 properties in a control, you will find someone asking for the #101).

 Of course, the point is, I didn't ask for the features. Did I? I asked
 is the limitation by design, are there plans to change it, and is there
 a workaround.

 Besides, do you feel it is unreasonable for someone to want a box used
 to show the contents of a Field or edit it, a data-bound control
 intended to save programming time, to have similar functionality to a
 TextBox?

  Real programmers prefer to do things their way, with few versatile
  mechanisms.

 So, who do you believe might not be a real programmer?

   The more a component gets complicated, the less people
  understand it; just now, many problems arise from the fact that people
  don't read documentation, and even when they do, they don't notice some
  important feature; and often that feature is not exactly you need.

 So, you feel that if a DataControl was given similar functionality to a
 TextBox, you might not understand it?

  To Vassilis: I don't know what more to say about your problem. Better to
  wait for Benoit.

Vassili,

Instead of change_bgcolor(Label  rsThesi!thesi) do

PRINT CStr(rsThesi!thesi)
PRINT CStr(rsThesi.Index)

to see where it stops make sure it actually prints the same results.

Keep in mind that the field name has to be EXACTLY the same as the one you
use in mysql.

worst comes to the worst take the MODMain.Connect() apart and line by line
make sure it works

Hope this helps

[Gambas-user] Classes and Modules in Gambas Server Pages

Hey guys,

I know that in gambas server pages there's #USE that allows us to use gambas
components.

Is there something similar to PHPs include statement to be able to use
classes and modules?

and when making modules and classes for server pages are there any changes
we need to make
or points we need to be careful of?

Thanks in advance

Re: [Gambas-user] Gambas and cgi

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey Marc,

gambas2-runtime and gambas2-gb-web might be enough to run a cgi
script on your webserver... however if you need to use any other libraries
you need to download then before you can actually use them.

You also need to set up your webserver to run gbw2 as a CGI executable
(like php-cgi is run to run php pages) and add cgi or another kind of
extension
for your gambas pages.

Personally I use gsp for Gambas Server Pages

I would also download gb.vb to use string functions that resemble those
of Visual Basic although it's pretty easy to manipulate strings in Gambas.

Take a look in the following link too

http://gambasdoc.org/help/doc/serverpage?view

I hope I helped
Keep up the good work

Dimitris

Re: [Gambas-user] make Label background from Database field

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Vassili,

you might also want to take a look at

The Gridview control
http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/comp/gb.qt/gridview

and the Tableview control
http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/comp/gb.form/tableview

perhaps one of those two is a better approach than manipulating individual
labels

If you still want to experiment with your original label approach then this
might help

PUBLIC SUB Form_Open()
 DIM i AS Integer
 DIM rsThesi AS Result
 DIM iD AS Long
  MODMain.Connect()
   rsThesi = MODMain.$Con.exec(select * from egrafes where elenchosAnax =
0)

'Move rsThesi to the first position
rsThesi.MoveFirst
  WHILE rsThesi.Index  rsThesi.Count
   SELECT CASE rsThesi!thesi
   CASE 1
   Label1.Background = Color.Red
   CASE 2
   Label2.Background = Color.Red
   CASE 3
   Label3.Background = Color.Red
..etc up to Label100
   END SELECT
   'Move rsThesi to the next record
   rsThesi.MoveNext
   WEND

END

your previous code didn't work because you weren't moving through rsThesi's
records
one by one, you only checked the first one. this code should work...

if I may add my 2 cents worth of programming wisdom, 100 labels can easily
be replaced
by a gridview and it would be a bit more visually appealing to the end user
but it's up to you
and what works best for you.

I hope this helps
Keep up the good work

Regards
Dimitris

 Since I did not want to make labels on run time, I got a solution to show

rsThesi = MODMain.$Con.exec(select * from egrafes where elenchosAnax =

CASE 3
Label3.Background = Color.Red
 ..etc up to Label100
END SELECT
INC iD
WEND
MODMain.$Con.Commit()
 END

 This solution shows only the first found Label (or rsThesi.thesi value) as
 Red
 the others remain uncolored even though they have number values as 10, 25
 etc.
 I thing there is an error on the loop and it stops at the first found
 number
 of the field rsThesi!thesi.
 Any suggestions?

Re: [Gambas-user] make Label background from Database field

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Vassili,

I'm glad we caught 1 of the two errors now let's go for the next one :)


  $alblTime[iD] = NEW Label(ME)
FOR iD = 1 TO rsThesi.Count - 1
  $alblTime[iD].Background = Color.Red
   NEXT

ok this has to be

   FOR iD = 1 TO rsThesi.Count - 1
 $alblTime[iD] = NEW Label(ME)
  $alblTime[iD].Background = Color.Red
   NEXT

for it to work.

because in your approach you only add

  $alblTime[iD] = NEW Label(ME)

once... and then you run the for loop. Which will find an object in
$alblTime[iD]  for iD = 0 (since iD gets the value 0 by default)

but what about iD=1 or iD=2?

I would also try to see if $alblTime.Resize(rdThesi.Count) works for you

if it doesn't work I would change the loop to this and see if this works:

While iD  rsThesi.Count
 $alblTime.Add(NEW Label(Me))
  $alblTime[$alblTime.Count - 1].Background = Color.Red
 INC iD
WEND

it does the same thing as the for loop. And it should work... theoretically
:)

I hope it helps
Keep up the good work

Dimitris

 You are right about the loop variant Dimitri. It must be rdThesi.Count-1.

Re: [Gambas-user] Normal behaviour for GTK+?

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Ricardo,

If I may express my opinion I think it was a very wise choice on Benoit's
side to support both GTK+ and QT
(even though it seems like it's a rat race trying to debug both components
every time qt works gtk doesn't
and vice versa or both don't work at the same time)

I believe that both technologies have their merits and their uses, and using
either or is more of a a design choice
of the programmer to go with either or and I think that deprecating gb.gtk
would be a pretty big strategy mistake.

It's one of the things that I like about Gambas, that it makes my
application work in both of them.

Regards,
Dimitris


2009/10/13 Ricardo Díaz Martín oceanosoftlapa...@gmail.com

 When I started programing gambas I used gtk+ components because I'm gnome
 users. I like to try my apps in kde and gnome and it's a fact at the
 moment,
 the same code works different in both (and sometimes doen't work in gtk+).

 For this reason, and because I know Benoit use KDE I allways use qt
 components in my apps. Maybe it's possible gtk+ component will be
 deprecated.

 Regards,
 Ricardo

 2009/10/13 nospam.nospam.nos...@gmail.com nospam.nospam.nos...@gmail.com

  This has me pulling my hair out. I think I have narrowed the problem
  down to the GTK+ toolkit for Gambas.
 
  If I create a GTK+ project and put a TextBox and a ValueBox on a form
  and set their default values, when I tab to the TextBox I can over-type
  the text, but when I tab to the ValueBox, the number I type is appended:
 
  For example, if the ValueBox contains 5000 and I type 7, the value
  becomes 50007.
 
  However if I change the project to use a Qt GUI, it works as I expect,
  i.e. if the ValueBox contains 5000 and I type 7, the value becomes 7. I
  have been able to reproduce this behaviour.
 
  Is that normal for GTK+? Is there anything I can do short of using Qt?
  Am I doing something wrong?
 
  Also, I can't find any documentation why I might use Qt in Gambas as
  opposed to GTK+ in Gambas. Opinions on what is best and why will be
  appreciated.

Re: [Gambas-user] Right-click menu

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

M Cs,

try this:
create a Menu with name mnuGrid and make it hidden
then add this to the gridview's mousedown event

PUBLIC SUB gridview1_MouseDown()

  IF gridview1.Rows.Count  0 AND gvBackup.Column = 1
  SELECT Mouse.Right
  CASE TRUE
 mnuGrid.popup()

This will popup your menu if you right click on the second column of any row

Re: [Gambas-user] write to folder in windows network

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Doriano,

With all due respect, some people are in the process of relearning key
concepts that they are used to take
for granted in Windows. To them Linux is still uncharted territory and since
this mailing list is so helpful it's
easy to veer of a tad bit off subject... I've seen workarounds involving
external Linux commands being offered
all the time instead of native Gambas code, so to my point of view (and If I
am wrong please correct me)
a simple pointer to a page containing a workaround to that question, or a
simple Sorry my friend I don't know how
to help you with this will suffice.

I mean think about the replies to the call from Benoit about the compilation
error shell script; that wasn't
Gambas specific yet people volunteered to help... why is this any different?

Regards,
Dimitris

 This question is not gambas related: it is an operating system matter.
 Moreover it has no simple answer - it depends on what your linux system
 is, what file manager you use, what services are running. If you use
 konqueror, there is a special bookmark like Samba network or whatever
 (sorry, I don't remember the true name). If you use gnome, something
 similar should exist. You will see nothing if network parameters are
 wrong. If you use neither, then I don't know what to say. I could speak
 about command-line tools, but this would take us far away.

 Read documentation about linux, networking, and samba. Or, at least, be
 more precise and tell something more about your system.

 Take it easy, I am not flaming just you; but sometimes I see people who
 ask, in this list, questions not gambas-related, like this. I ask
 myself: where do these people come from, and where want they go, without
 knowing that gambas runs on linux? And, knowing that, do they think they
 can write applications without knowing what there is behind? I wonder of
 this: before wanting to write an application which accesses other
 computers (windows computers!) on the network, did you think just for a
 minute about trying to access them without gambas?

 Doriano

Hey Bill,

I found this page, it might help you.

as people have suggested earlier, try opening a terminal and try the

(linux copy command),
before you use the share in your Gambas program

 Are you aware of the command line program:  smbmount?   Do a google
 search on it or use man pages but the basics are to use it like this
 (with your own options):

 smbmount //server/share /localdir -o
 username=user,password=pass,uid=500,gid=500


 There's a way to put it directly into your /etc/fstab so you don't have
 to run it manually each time you reboot but I forget the exact syntax at
 the moment.

Re: [Gambas-user] invalid object error on variable of database queries

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Vasilis,

if I'm reading your code correctly you're closing the result set before you
use rsAPOD!arithmosAp

you could assign the value of rsAPOD!arithmosAp in a variable and use that
in the print statement
or move MODMain.$Con.Close below the CLOSE hPrinter line.

that way the resultset can close properly.

I hope this helps

Re: [Gambas-user] stop file COPY

Benoît,

If I called COPY from a form and closed that form while the COPY command was
still copying a large file would that stop the action?
or would the command still copy the file in the background?

 Hi guys, I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to do this in gambas.

 In python, you can have a dictionary object (declared like list =
 [key1:value1,key2:value2,key3:value3])
 As you can see, it's like a string[] where each object is a key=value pair.

 I'm wondering if there is a way to emulate something like this in gambas2



 The idea is to have maybe a list like
 option1=window1
 option2=window2
 option3=window3

 Then in my app, the key value of each component would be a button and
 the value would be a window name which is to be opened when the user
 clicks the respective button

 Can someone think of a possible solution?

You're very welcome, Anonymous,

I'm glad I helped

Just throwing this in there, it would make it easy for everyone in the

Even if you used a nickname it would be easier for someone that attempts to
help you with a gambas-related or even a linux-related problem, since posts
come from many people, it helps the conversation.

Just something to consider

 Well, I can't find Form_Unload. Wasn't that VB? No, what I was looking
 for was an event referring to the X gadget of the window only.

 But I just remembered that I could do it using a flag which is set
 clicking OK and not set clicking Cancel or something else. This flag
 then is referenced during Form_Close. This would have the same effect
 (if my crude logic doesn't fool me today...) :-)

Re: [Gambas-user] chop project

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey JY,

One approach would be to create a main message-passing class, and link the
sub-projects to that class passing messages through a common set of
properties and methods

Another approach is to create the sub-projects with a class of common
properties and methods that pass the message from one
sub-project to the other.

The tricky part would be to dynamically load that sub-project in your main
project, effectivelly creating a sort of plugin.

I hope this helps

Re: [Gambas-user] how to start a file?

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey Robi,

What I described above is a way to store information in a configuration
file. what you need is different

Files are going to be attached where? Where is the pdf going to be stored?
in the same computer where
the project is running? or in a website?

To open a file with the default application, try using the gb.desktop
component and Desktop.Open() as Benoit suggested.

call it like this  Desktop.Open(file:///myPDF.pdf) if it is for a file or
  Desktop.Open(http://myserver.com/myPDF.pdf;) if the
file is on a server somewhere on the internet.

 Hi Dimitris,

 Thanks for your answer.
 I'm not sure if this is exactly what I want but I'll check. I try to tell
 more concretly my need:
 I wanna make a small project follower application for my colleagues where
 they can follow some actions and attach files. For instance a pdf file with
 the customer spec.

 The data, I'll store in a mySQL database where I can put the path as well.

 When the user (or an other user) opens the project and clicks on the link,
 how can I tell to Gambas to open the file with the default application (in
 the example with acrobat reader). I just need the same effect as when I
 double click on the icon.

 If this is what you described just confirm please.

 Thanks,
 Robi

 2009/9/14 Dimitris Anogiatis dos...@gmail.com

  Hey Robi,
 
  one of the options is to use the gb.settings library.
 
  while you're on the IDE press CTRL and P then click on the Componets tab,
  find gb.settings and click on the box on the left side of the selection
  then
  press Ok
 
  now in your code you need to use this on top of your code (ie put this on
  the first line of your form or module)
 
  Public pathSettings AS NEW Settings(User.Home / Application.Name /
  Application.Name  .conf)
 
  this means that if your user account name is robi and your application's
  name is myApp then the settings
  file will be created in this path
 
  /home/robi/myApp/myapp.conf
 
  now to save settings you use pathSettings like this
 
  pathSettings[Files/LoadFrom]=your path
 
  this will create a category Files in your settings file and under that it
  will create a LoadFrom item
  where you can store your path's value
 
  to read that value all you have to do is
 
  myPath = pathSettings[Files/LoadFrom]
 
  I hope it helps

open a folder that contains a gambas file and right click on it
then click on the Open with tab and press the add button
click on the Use a custom command section and add gbr2

when you do that select the gbr2 in the open with tab and click ok

and next time you doubleclick on a gambas file it will automatically execute

Re: [Gambas-user] how to start a file?

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey Robi,

one of the options is to use the gb.settings library.

while you're on the IDE press CTRL and P then click on the Componets tab,
find gb.settings and click on the box on the left side of the selection then
press Ok

now in your code you need to use this on top of your code (ie put this on
the first line of your form or module)

Public pathSettings AS NEW Settings(User.Home / Application.Name /
Application.Name  .conf)

this means that if your user account name is robi and your application's
name is myApp then the settings
file will be created in this path

/home/robi/myApp/myapp.conf

now to save settings you use pathSettings like this

pathSettings[Files/LoadFrom]=your path

this will create a category Files in your settings file and under that it
will create a LoadFrom item
where you can store your path's value

to read that value all you have to do is

myPath = pathSettings[Files/LoadFrom]

I hope it helps

Regards
Dimitris

 Hello,

 I just start with Gambas (used VB before) and hopefully I found a place
 where I can get some answers.
 At this moment I wish to add an option of attaching files in my application
 (by saving the path) and to open them later.
 Can someone tell me how can I start a file from Gambas? For instance a
 spreadsheet with open office?

 Thanks for your help in advance.

Re: [Gambas-user] question about Dialog.SelectDirectory()

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

It's not a stupid question Charlie,

you can use the DirChooser control that's available in gb.form
You can have a form with that control come up as modal
(so you can't do anything else until you have chosen a directory
 and inside it you can put a dirchooser control

you can get the selected path like this:

tmpPath = DirChooser1.SelectedPath

I hope this helps

 Salut Benoit,

 my be a very stupid question, but for what I'm looking for, is like the

  Now I will try to use the program as a component, I embed it into a form
  of the new management part, I can't pass the file as argu, but between
  NEW and Open I can pass the files name.
  So I will do for the return.
 
  Thanks anyway

Re: [Gambas-user] Selection from a list

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Alex,

Setting the mode to Multiple does allow that...

if for example you have 6 items on your listbox
if you execute these 2 lines the 1st  the 4th item
will be selected

listbox1[0].Selected = TRUE
listbox1[3].Selected = TRUE

(in Gambas 2.14 on my Debian Lenny it works as described)

If the user wants to change the selection, in order for them
not to lose the previous selection, they have to press CTRL
before they click on a new item or deselect one of the already
selected.

Now to check which items are selected on your listbox... Unless
I'm also missing some other easier way... I would suggest a function like
this

PUBLIC FUNCTION multipleSelections(targetLB AS ListBox) AS String
  DIM targetCount AS Integer
  DIM foundSelected AS Integer
  DIM Res AS String

  targetCount = 0
  foundSelected = 0
  DO WHILE targetCount  targetLB.Count
   IF targetLB[targetCount].selected = TRUE THEN
Res = targetLB[targetCount].Text  |
INC foundSelected
   ENDIF
  INC targetCount
  LOOP

IF foundSelected = 0 THEN
RETURN Nothing found
  ELSE
RETURN Left(Res, Len(Res) - 1)
ENDIF

END


You could use it like this:

Print multipleSelections(listbox1)

and as a result you would get this

Item 1|Item 4

(that's the text of the selected items)

if you want their indices you could modify it so you could
get the selected item indices in the same way

I hope this helps

Regards,
Dimitris

 Hallo to everyone.
 Can anyone tell me whether a ListBox can be used to
 display a list with several items preselected and then
 to allow a user to change some part of this selection?
 I think mode multiple must allow to do this. However
 I do not understand how to preselect more than one item
 and how to get the indexes of the finally selected items,
 if there are more then one of them.
 My difficulty is due to the fact that if I want to set some
 item as selected=TRUE I have to make it current by
 specifying the index. But by doing this I change the status
 of the item which was current before... It does not remain
 selected=TRUE , does it?
 I probably do not understand something.

Hey Steven,

it does work in gnome.

Because the webbrowser control is based on a KDE library
if you load the kbuildsycoca package (or the one that contains it)

I'm running it on a Debian Lenny and Gnome  2.22.3. And it works
just fine.

Re: [Gambas-user] type mismatch: wanted integer, got string instead

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

MSulchan,

in http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/cat/datatypes you will find a breakdown of
the available data types
supported by Gambas2 and in http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/cat/conv the
available data conversion
functions. In this section of Gambasdoc
http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/cat/type   you will also find
datatype functions that can help you with the special cases... ie IsNULL
will detect if your variable
is null or not.

Now as for a strategy to deal with the floats...

Depending on the floating number's floating part (meaning if the number's
floating part is no more than 2 digits ie 0.90)
seeing as it represents percentage you could always multiply them * 100 and
turn them into an integer. If of course
you get a large number like 0.582694 multiplying it by 100 and turning
that into an integer, you'll end up with
rounded data. The other approach is to use a float type variable but then
you need to change your code to handle
floats.

With this new data about your project's input

You could try something like this...
'--
'if the value of sRain is NOT a null

if IsNull(Val(sRain)) = False  THEN

   'if the number is an integer just assign it to the iRain variable
   if IsInteger(Val(sRain)) = TRUE THEN
  iRain = Val(sRain)

 'if it's not an integer
   ELSE
  'check to see if it's a string
  SELECT CASE isString(sRain)
 CASE True

 'if it's a string check here to see which one of the
 'designated strings you have and assign a value to iRain

 if sRain = x then iRain = 0.4 'or anything else you want to
make it
 if sRain = - then iRain = 0 'or anything else you want to
make it
 CASE False

 ' if it's neither an integer nor a string, convert it into an
integer multiply it by 100 turn it assign it to the iRain variable
 iRain = Val(sRain) * 100
 CASE ELSE
  END SELECT
   ENDIF

'if the value of sRain is a null then just assign a negative integer to
iRain
ELSE
  iRain = -1
ENDIF
'--

I hope this helps a bit more

Regards
Dimitris

 Thanks Dimitris and JY,

 Unfortunately, the possible values are more then that, it's just a
 sample.
 The values are amount of rainfall data, so it has numbers (0 to 400)
 also with floating number 0.5, 1.7, and so on.
 The field of old data on the database was set with string type, which
 x represent as a value less then 0.5, - represent as no rain, and
 NULL represent as no data.

 So, for temporary solution, I'll use TRY statement to exclude x, -,
 and NULL, but the problem is with the floating number.
 I don't know how to handle this yet.
 any idea how to solve this ?

 Thanks Dimitris and JY,

 Unfortunately, the possible values are more then that, it's just a
 sample.
 The values are amount of rainfall data, so it has numbers (0 to 400)
 also with floating number 0.5, 1.7, and so on.
 The field of old data on the database was set with string type, which
 x represent as a value less then 0.5, - represent as no rain, and
 NULL represent as no data.

 So, for temporary solution, I'll use TRY statement to exclude x, -,
 and NULL, but the problem is with the floating number.
 I don't know how to handle this yet.
 any idea how to solve this ?

 thanks in advance,
 Regards,
 Sulchan

  give it a try MSulchan and tell me if it works for you

 Thank you Dimitris, after a little try and error, I change the code
 into like this :

  IF IsNull(Val(sRain)) = FALSE THEN
IF InStr(LCase(sRain), x)  0 OR InStr(sRain, -)  0 OR
 InStr(sRain, .)  0 THEN
IF InStr(LCase(sRain), x)  0 THEN fRain = 0
IF InStr(sRain, -)  0 THEN fRain = 0
IF InStr(sRain, .)  0 THEN
  sRainy = Replace(sRain, ., ,)
  fRain = Val(sRainy)
ENDIF
ELSE
fRain = CFloat(Val(sRain))
ENDIF
  ELSE
fRain = -1
  ENDIF

 Decided to change iRain (integer) to fRain (float).
 As Fabien told that Val() use current localization, so I need to change
 the decimal separator from dot to comma.
 And I think it is fast enough :D

 Thanks again.

Re: [Gambas-user] type mismatch: wanted integer, got string instead

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Hey MSulchan,

if you're trying to convert either x, -, or NULL
to an integer you're correctly going to get a mismatch error

basically the mismatch error is a way of saying
I can't convert x into an integer, I don't know what number to convert
x to

what I would personally use instead of  iRain = CInt(sRain) is a Select
statement like this one

SELECT CASE sRain
   Case  0
 iRain = 0
   Case  1
 iRain = 1
   Case  2
 iRain = 2
   Case  x
 iRain = 3
   Case  -
 iRain = 4
   Case  ELSE  'this case would be used in case of anything else including
null
 iRain = -1
END SELECT

this way iRain would always have an integer and you wouldn't have to worry
about
the mismatch error... assuming 0, 1, 2, x, - and NULL are the only
values
used in your database.

I hope this helps

Dimitris

 Dear sir,

 I have the following code :

  DIM iPos AS Integer
  DIM iYear AS String

  modMain.Connect
  hRes = modMain.$Con.Exec(SELECT * FROM table)

iMonth = hRes!mn
sRain = hRes!r1

iRain = CInt(sRain)
IF iRain  100 THEN PRINT iPos, iYear, iMonth

  NEXT

 on this line : iRain = CInt(sRain)
 I got the type mismatch error.
 This is my first try to program on gambas.
 So why the error happened ? Any suggestion to fix are welcome.

 FYI, the database connected successfully, hRes!r1 is a string, sRain is
 a string, and I'd like to get the integer value of sRain.
 The possible value of sRain is : 0, 1, 2, x, -, NULL.

 Help !
 I'm using gambas2 2.8.2 on linux mint 7.

 Thanks in advance.

Benoît,

Perhaps you could also enhance Find to accept regular expressions (or
something similar to what we can use with LIKE)

If it already does can you provide some more documentation about it in
Gambasdoc?

   Good point Benôit. Array is populated from file, but maybe I should

   Jussi
  
   You should use a collection to detect duplicates, otherwise your
   algorithm is O(n^2)
 
  Another technique could be to keep the array (or collection, don't know)
  sorted while constructing it. If sorted, a single run can detect all the
  duplicates, giving O(n). If the logic behind requires the values in the
  original order, then this information should be kept in a parallel array.
 
  Just for fun...
 
  Regards,
  Doriano
 

 Yes. I wanted to add two methods: AddSorted() and FindSorted(), that will
 assume the array is sorted, and so will be fastest.

Re: [Gambas-user] To the wish list...

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

hey Jussi,

if of course you prefer the integer approach rather than my approach
you could try this one.

--

Dim tmpInitial as Integer

tmpInitial = iMyArray.Find(my item)

iMyArray[tmpInitial] = -beginning

While iMyArray.Find(my item) -1

iMyArray.Remove(iMyArray.Find(my item))

Wend

iMyArray[tmpInitial] = left(iMyArray[tmpInitial],-10)

--

I think this approach might speed up things for you since you only
go to the duplicate items and remove them one by one instead of
going through the whole array.

the string approach might also be of use to you

try either one and see which one fits very well in your project :)

I hope this helps
