Benoît stated back then that only the really needed features will be implemented in the Gambas Preprocessor and scolded me for my proposition to use the CPP instead. Nonetheless, if you really want to use the #include directive and other c-style things in your own dark chamber, nobody would care if you maintain your sources split, merge them via #include and then push them through the gbc3. As indirectly quoted above, it is not a solution for future gambas and I would strongly prefer OO over this but if you need it, why not...

In effect ssh -X does the full remote developer thing. So I imagine if Raspberry had going inside it X, gambas and ssh, and it was connected by ethernet, then ssh -X will work, and the full testing and debugging can be carried out from a remote PC with no code changes to Gambas! Ahhh the wonders of Linux! :-) [p.s. There are a couple of pointers to Gambas3 and Rasberry, but does anyone have some knowledge of Ubuntu + Gambas3 working and available as downloadable image file for SDCard?] I'd like to just do the debugging remotely. Maybe ssh is the better solution. So the user would have to enter a login, a password and an host/ip in the IDE, the IDE will connect to the RPi that way, and will be able to run the project in debugging mode. Now I must find a way to let the project in debugging mode communicate with the IDE on the PC. It should be a matter of having a socket go through the ssh connection.

Regards, Tobi Hi Tobi, I probably didn't make it clear. Any n-tree can be transformed into a b-tree where the left branch is the first child and the right branch is the first sibling. To be more correct I should have said Any k-ary tree can be represented as a binary tree where the left branch is the first child and the right branch is the next sibling. The theory is in wikipedia here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_tree#Encoding_general_trees_as_binary_trees. These binary trees have well known (Knuth and others) algrorithms for different actions to be used on the binary tree, insertions, deletions, (graft and prune), traversals in particular orders, searches, sorts etc etc. The application of a binary tree structure to suit a particular problem is a different matter. This is what you can use the tree for or how to apply the tree structure to solve a particular problem. In my case, which was a set of rows in a database containing a data component and a parent value that I was trying to populate a treeview with (1800 records) where the rows were out of order with respect to building the treeview. It was an n-level table of contents thing. Rather than try to traverse the database several times and resolve getting each toc level resolved, I just read the whole thing as a single db.result and created a binary tree of the above type, creating dummy parent nodes as soon as I had a need for them and setting their data to a placebo value. When I later located the real parent row in the db.result iteration all I had

No, any node can be considered as a root for a subtree. Anynode.parent provides what I think your saying. Consequently every node has to provide such functionality. (Aside, I think that separating the functionality from the node is the key of what I was trying to say. But that is a side issue.) What I, however, was trying to say is: every node can be the root of a tree and at the same time a node within another tree, in that point, we already met, right? So there has to be _one_ node class for the generic node above (that can possess both attributes) that implements methods which resemble the tree algorithms. That way we could have a basic tree datastructure - if it is that simple. This basic datastructure can be inherited, overridden, etc. If the node class is aware of these both attributes (being root node of a tree and itself node in a tree at the same time) one can easily concatenate trees and that's what I wanted to show with my code above. (Sorry if I re-invent the wheel here) What you were out for, if I got you right, was only providing a datastructure for nodes and a separate class with code to handle them? Like pluggable algorithms on the same structures? I don't deem it necessary to distinguish between root and other nodes. Only in that the tree happens to be a directed graph that has one special node. I told you graphs were interesting. The codeis only once there anyway. It could even have helped in your case to em-parent (sorry, not a native English speaker) a node that you formerly assumed to be the root like NewNode.Left = RootNode RootNode = NewNode As interesting as it sounds, I'm probably not the right person to work on this. I don't have much time for (I don't think so but from a pure conscientiousness point I need to prepare my A-level a bit) and nobody else wants to wait until I finish the theory ;) Having been born some time in the middle of the last century, I have no idea what an A-level is.

Shell indicated that all files are being copied one-by-one. But TextLable did not display Copy in progress. I did lot of experiment with the above code. Finaly i got it working by adding time delay just before shell command. Now my code looks like this :- TextLabel.Text = Copy in progress wait 0.1 Shell cp -r lt;srcgt; lt;dstgt; Wait TextLabel.Text = Completed. I really have no cluenbsp; why code worked after inserting time delay. For public again: Actually, it does not depend on the *delay*. If you use the WAIT instruction, the interpreter re-enters its event loop. Only in this loop, changes to the GUI are made effective. So just call Wait without any parameter so that the interpreter spends only as long there as it needs to process all the pending events and refresh the GUI.

[Gambas-user] Strange file modes

I just wanted to filter away the shell scripts and stuff that ought to be executable (that's what I mean by strange file modes because I don't think those files above have to be executable) quickly. I noticed them only on C/C++ source files, so far and you see, there are a few (that's why I decided to search for those in the above command). Nothing interesting but sometimes I startle up when listing directory entries :) (One may improve the command line and filter out the scripts used by the build system by their names or something if this is really considered a security issue - I don't think so but I'm, too, not very familiar with what could be done.

After over 3 years of intensive research, now the first chapters are published. We place value on good description of the classes and components of Gambas as well as on the practical implementation of the theory in concrete Gambas projects. For each document, there is a PDF version to download and all the projects referred to and built from the article. Progressively, all projects will be ported to, developed and tested in GB3. The authors hope for animated cooperation with the readers of the online book. A contact form is available to receive comments and hints and to improve the texts and projects at place.

[Gambas-user] Using qsort with Objects
Hi, I want to sort an Array of Arrays as Variant[][] that may contain different datatypes in each member of an array but the arrays are all homogenous (think of a Database, it's not the actual subject but the same idea). That's what I thought of: - Write a class that Inherits Variant[] (that will act as the Array containing Variant[], so I could also Inherits Object[]?) - Create a Sort() method for that class that takes an integer N for the member to sort by (Variant[][N]) (When Inherits Object[], I get error messages on incorrectly overriding Object[].Sort(). The parameter?) - Call qsort(Super.Data, Super.Count, SizeOf(gb.Pointer), MyCompare) -- _Right?_ - MyCompare consequently takes two Pointers. How may I treat them as being references to Variant[]? Any casts possible? After that, it would be easy to use TypeOf(Variant[][N]) and call a datatype-specific routine to compare the two values. I tried to Private Sub MyCompare(V1 As Variant[], V2 As Variant[]) and got a Segfault after one line of wrong results when, in MyCompare, Print V1[0], V1[1] which are valid.

[Gambas-user] Regexp based highlighting
Hi, it's some time since I last used the Highlight class together with the gb.qt4.ext Editor and I personally found it quite painful in the beginning. I hope, I did nothing wrong when I constructed a large Editor_Highlight() handler? However, my question is about a Regexp based Highlighting. Does it already exists? A sample I can provide for that, is vim. I think about implementing that (at least) when I extend the gb.ncurses component to TextBoxes and stuff (what the ncurses forms library provides), it may be of help in the GUI world, too, I'm almost sure. Remarks? (From Benoît perhaps? I saw that there exist several Highlight* classes that do the job for quite some languages, so I _suppose_ that there's no such automatism?)

In a project I've got two lists of data and further data which are mutually dependent, such as item 1: item 1 a data 1 aa data 1 ab item 1 b data 1 ba data 1 bb and so on, which could be seen like a tree or directory structure. Now my question is, how would YOU organize this internally? I mean, what kind of data structure would you prefer to be able to easily find your way through it? In the GUI, it looks like two ListBoxes and two TextBoxes: List1 List2 TextBox1 TextBox2 If you choose item1 in List1, List2 will show item1a and item1b. When you choose item1a, the Textboxes show data1aa and data1ab. If you choose item1b, the Textboxes show data1ba and data1bb. Of course, I could make a matrix of item1 item1a data1aa item1 item1a data1ab item1 item1b data1ba item1 item1b data1bb but how would my program EASILY find which data to show if the user clicks item1a for instance? Another idea was to leave out repetitions: item1 item1a data1aa data1ab item1b data1ba data1bb This shows the tree-like structure better, but is it a professional approach? Thanks for your ideas.

There's a lot of work with colors in Images and Pictures in a project and between these classes. This is generally speaking as follows: I have a class which has an 8*8px Image which is manipulated (due to the easy of accessing pixels directly). Using a property of my class, I provide access to a scaled version of the Image as a Picture (which is created when requested). So I do some things and when manually resizing the Image to get the prototype of the Picture to return (it is needed as bigger version of the Image without anti-aliasing, I don't get this result with Image.Stretch(), and doing it manually is not a problem) there seem to appear problems with transparency. I read that Pictures do not have an alpha channel and I noticed that colors from the ColorChooser or Color class are given with alpha channel set to 0x00 which will be transparent for the Image class... so I tried addingHff00to whatever color is assigned to any pixel in the 8*8px Image or not to do it and some other experiments but nothing worked on the entire project. there's always something transparent or black or whatever. I really go nuts with this. Anyone to my rescue? Regards, Tobi wait a minute. I forgot to say that I don't even need the transparency feature of the Image class. I only use Image - as I said - because of Image[x, y] pixel access. For the meantime - or as a final solution? there may be a lot of those accesses and I thought using Image[x, y] will be the most efficient way to go - I switch to using an 8*8px Picture and Draw.Pixel() instead but I would really appreciate anyone clarify this topic to me. I understand nothing. Maybe because I'm a little sick, but if you can be clearer... it's a messy explanation, i just recalled too... the situation is as follows: i have a class that takes care of designing a picture for me according to user input. because of the ease of accessing pixels with the image class i took an image behind the scenes but it has to be converted to a picture for display in a PictureBox at the front end. moreover it has to be resized which i do manually and is no big deal for my format. i used to import pictures and images into the class, etc. which overall introduces as big back and forth of image- picture conversion, resizing, etc. the problem first came up when i incorporated palettes created by another program and stored in binary files. i noticed that these were in ARGB format with the A component set to 0x00 all the time (colors came from a ColorChooser, later i noticed that the constants in the Color class do likewise). while this works (color is displayed) when drawing it to a picture, it doesn't when writing it to an image pixel. i tried conversion functions and everything that came in my mind. at the end i rewrote the class to use pictures. those pictures are created with the Transparent = False instanciation parameter. from those i can derive Picture.Image on which i operate to speed things up. this is sort of solved and the program works fine now. i seem to repress the memory of what i tried (pathetic programmer's brain :) ) but i can tell that nothing worked on the entire project (which was certainly a fault due to my quick fixes or project infrastructure) but to clarify things: it resulted in transparency in all kinds of places in the whole program originally introduced by reading colors from standard components that had their alpha channel zeroed which according to the docs signaled the image class that this color is fully transparent. i hope it didn't get as complicated but recalling the situation pointed me to the fact that actually i do not know why it is working now (seems to rely on the Transparent = False picture instanciation?)... regards, tobi Mff... If you need to create a Picture, start from an Image, and convert it to a Picture at the last step. Do not use the Transparent property of Pictures. As for transparency: it is inverted between pixels in memory and Gambas color values. If you use the Image class and the [] operator, then this is taken into account transparently.
