[Gambas-user] Gambas Examples/Tutorials
Are there any basic Gambas example projects/tutorials or is this a need. I looked on the Tutorials page on the wiki and it of course says 'not finished' and the link to working with files is dead. If there are no examples/tutorials who is providing these and how can we contribute? More to the point: I have opened some static files and played with the example on the wiki using the Process object to run ls and such. What I am really interested in is 'hooking' an interactive shell, spice/ngspice in particular. Probably apps like mysql and python would be good candidates also so a good base class that could: open an interactive shell program make stdin/stderror avaible for processing by the Gambas side write commands back into the interpreter's shell read the resulting data from the shell etc, etc would be very usable to me. However, I am not getting any results from a read_event when playing with the example. (I'd like to just read the open message from the shell, issue a 'quit' and read the quit message to get started). I know this is possible from c with pairs of I/O streams for each handle but how is this done in GAMBAS? -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user

Re: [Gambas-user] More null problems
I agree with Stephen's third button option. I don't think check boxes are right as you can't be both simultaneously (except maybe in some speciality bars and clubs). Radio buttons are the right way to go. You may be able to get the behaviour you're asking for if you delete and recreate the controls but even if you can do that, once a radio button selection has been made there's no going back. In that case your gui has a one way street that isn't user friendly - so better to have that 3rd state. I'm currently working in health. We have 4 states: male, female, unknown and undisclosed.

Bruce wrote: I have a set of two radio buttons in a panel control (Male Female), when a new person object is loaded into the form I need to set the gender appropriately.

My Gambas problem is creating the classes for the various plot types. Within Gambas the data items are integers. When I try and read the existing datum point into the class (as in dp.rangeheight=$dbresult!rangeheight ) it is complaining that the value is a null not an integer, as in wanted integer, got null instead). Now, coercing the value of the object data to zero is NOT valid, as in the above example, the rangeheight is null not zero, as zero means 0m above the basepoint. Similarly, coercing it to a negative value wont work either, as that means meters below the base point. Is there any way to set the value of an integer variable to an uninitalised state? bruce A solution might be to use the Variant data type instead of Integer.

[Gambas-user] Combo box
Hi All, First post, so forgive me newbie-ness. If I use the add method to add rows to a combo box I specify an index: Eg: ComboBoxProjects.Add(ZZ, 0) ComboBoxProjects.Add(AA, 1) Then in a button click event I use the index property to get the selected row: PRINT ComboBoxProjects.Index This is fine until I set the sort property to true on the combo box. The order of the text changes but the index remains the same, so selecting the AA row gives me an index of 0, not 1 as expected. Any ideas? What am I doing wrong?

This works DIM hFile1 AS File hFile1 = OPEN /home/jeffjohnson/aprs/wxaprs.ini FOR OUTPUT CREATE ...But when you use an absolute path, nothing is checked. But then your code does not work once the program is compiled into an executable. I need to either determine the full working path so I can make it hFile1 = OPEN $Path wxaprs.ini FOR OUTPUT CREATE or the correct way to create a file Any ideas of where I fell off the trolley? You can't create file inside the project at execution time. You need to store your file inside the user home directory. You can use the Settings class, that creates a settings file like in Windows in a standard path inside the user home directory. Or you can create your own file, as an hidden file (beginning with a dot), or as a file stored inside an hidden directory. Now the standard is defined by freedesktop.org: a configuration file is stored in ~/.config/application. The Settings class stored its own configuration file in ~/.config/gambas[3]/application.conf Regards, - Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!

Re: [Gambas-user] Path for open file write
Pharm out...That is what I needed to know..

If the pages you create are temporary, i.e. they disappear when the program ends, then you can use the process temporary directory created by the interpreter (Temp$ function). If the pages you create are persistent, then you must store them inside the user home directory, or in another directory specified by him. If you are doing a program that is run by root or another priviledged user, you should store your logs in /var/log. Regards, - Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
