Benoît Minisini replied: -8-- I will tell you when I make the environmental variable change. His name will be something like GB_DIR, or GB_ROOT. It would be excellent to find the answer in documentation, when the technology will be done. I asked: 2) I have the GridView in my program, that displays 4 thousands of rows.

I'm sorry, I do not understand this at all. Could anybody explain this on a simple example? I thank charlesg, Doriano Blengino and Benoît Minisini for excellent practical and theoretical answers. I asked: 3) When I hide persistent Form, how to display it again? Jussi Lahtinen replied: FromName.Show works with me..? And Benoît Minisini replied: Show() ? You want to ask me: What the problem is?. I often need to know, if SomeForm is already opened or yet not. I didn't find any property or method of the Form that told about it. The fastest way for me was to write such code in SomeForm class: --- ' Gambas class file PUBLIC VAR_FormIsShown AS Boolean PUBLIC SUB Form_Open() ...

Re: [Gambas-user] set of questions
Doriano While you are busy dumping on yourself, let me join in: you are wrong. 1) You are wrong that you do not have a good command of the English language. I have often marvelled (in that vaguely condescending British sort of a way :)) how good your (in particular) and every contributors (in general) English is. You write better English than half of Britain. This does not say much but is intended as a compliment. 2) You are wrong that you do not know anything about Gambas. Less skilled users, like myself, learn a lot from your contributions and your obvious knowledge of Linux. There are complaints that some posts 'have nothing do do with Gambas'. I do not accept that and suggest that most of the posts relate to the interface between Gambas and Linux. I am sure the problem here is that too many questions were asked in a single post. I am also sure that Ron's response is a bite without venom. The boss is an amazing chap: he writes and maintains Gambas, holds down a job and is, I believe, a Thespian of repute. To avoid any unrecoverable read errors, he needs the help of people like you on this forum. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/set-of-questions-tp25987669p26022140.html Sent from the gambas-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Come build with us!

If Benoit's acting is of same quality as programming then the 'International Thespian Society' should honorary him to :) About my feelings/compliment to Benoit. His source code of gambas written in C did show me a beautifull usage of the m4 macro usage. It was never seen before by me used in sources code in same quantity and quality. I'm a lover of this usage in the past with M80/L80 for CP/M and the EditorAssemblerPlus for the TRS80. May be more programmers do so but Benoit's way looks to me not the regular common way for the C art o programming. Anyway I never see it done.

The start of the thread, posted by user Dima, where I replied is (citation): I want to run my gambas2-application from USB-FLASH-DISK on the computers, that do not have gambas2 installed. followed by a numbered list of other questions. I replied to a few. The most important was about the Data event. Then someone else, Faysal Banna, asked about what I replied to Dima, without specifying more. I assumed he was talking about usb flash disk, because the other argument is already explained in the docs. Banna replied no no, it was about editing cells. But what he really wrote is (citation): no no sir i was asking about the Grid View u were explaining to Dima ... besides i care to know a bit more about in place editing of cells inside Now, for my poor english, I suppose the adjective besides acts as a junction between two predicates. So he wanted to know about gridview, and *besides*, something about editing of cells. Is it clear to you? For me, just not enough... :-) I did the best I could do about the Data event: I posted the good source provided by another user on the same thread. And I simply ignored the phrase following that besides. I write this full explanation (sorry) because I feel a little flamed. If you can, and if you want, go to see the whole thread on gambas-user. It started with a set of question, and just now Benoit is replying you should have been make a thread for each question to the poster. Then someone else (Banna) wrote something not clear to me, and even changed topic. Lastly, you teach to me that I am hijacking! :-) Better for me to take some course about computers...

Provided that there is no advantage, so nobody wants to do it, if I did it I did it without awareness. No Doriano, you didn't hijack. Hijack is jumping in a tread with a new question and disturb the conversation in the current thread. It can happen so as did in this tread to top poster had some questions. The tread splits in top with answers to the several questions. In this case the tread was at the point talking about the usb-stick. In your first answer in this tread you did give answers to point 1(usb) and point 2(gridview) Then Faysal did ask for some example/ A few posts before Jussi answer with his situation for the gambas install on usb. Faysal jumps in and ask something [2009-10-21 12:52]. Doriano... do you have a sample src package of what you have just explained ? can u share a simple running example with source files and forms ? Your answer was [2009-10-21 13:38] can u share a simple running example with source files and forms ? About what? I suppose about running a gambas app out of a usb stick? Never tried but, if this is your request, I can try. ---8--- I played a bit, but it does not work. The path lib/gambasX seems to be hardcoded in the gbx executable. So Faysal wrote [2009-10-21 13:44] no no sir i was asking about the Grid View u were explaining to Dima ... ---8--- Then Jussi comes in at [2009-10-21 15:47] He answers some questions from the TOP (Topic Opening Poster) for Q 1, 3, 5 and 6. None of them refers to the gridview. Here Jussi should have answered in a reply to the opening post insted this place. The tread here was oriented at one of the questions, the usb case. Now Faysal ask [2009-10-21 16:51] again about the gridview. So I did replay [2009-10-22 09:10] as answer to Faysal. I don't see the connection with gambas from usb stick. Can you enligth me? Doriano did answer my post [2009-10-22 09:20] The first message of the thread, set of questions, contained a question about launching a gambas app in a host system not having the gambas runtime installed. Or so I think - I have already . So it was clear this branch in the topic was about the usb/gambas install. I did answer:[2009-10-22 11:13] He is mumbling about a gridview in this thread and is not related to it and as reply to something total different. You may say I'm wrong because it is in the TOP, that is correct. My mistake, I was following the usb/install branch and had forgotten the TOP. IMHO Faysal should have ask his gridview case on your first answer where you did talk about it. At that moment there was no misunderstanding as did happen on the place he did request it [2009-10-21 12:52] where he asked for some src/example code. Because at this place the answers where the usb/install related you respond about this and not the gridview and he did answer with 'no no no' No ringing bells at Faysal there was some misunderstanding about the specific subjec part in discussion. Now you replay to my second post [2009-10-22 16:43] folowed by Faysal to your post. ---8--- gridview which is of my interest at the moment and instead of u mumbling about Hijacking and bla bla bla u could have pointed to the solution if u know it or either directed to the documentation ---8--- So he did attack you about mumbling. He did reply to the wrong post :) Doriano ... Could you please point to a good documentation about GridView utilisation and/or TableView, besides your english is good I agree. just other people need to follow threads from the beginning. And that is what you should do also and special pay attention to reply to the right message. This last one should be to me and the other one to the first post Doriano talked about the gridview. His later answers where to another question

Re: [Gambas-user] set of questions
Dima Malkov ha scritto: Using Gambas 2.7, Debian Lenny 32 -- Hello! Main question. I want to run my gambas2-application from USB-FLASH-DISK on the computers, that do not have gambas2 installed. There is a folder on my USB-FLASH-DISK with my application and subfolders: 1) bin, includes files gba2, gbc2, gbi2, gbx2, soft links; 2) lib, includes files *.so.0.0.0, *.component, *.gambas, soft links; 3) share, includes icons/*.png, info/* (strange files), mime/*.xml. It also includes bash-script for copying all above to system folders /usr/bin/, /usr/lib/ and /usr/share. Can I run my application with just some command, without copying? Copying is a very bad idea - there is the risk of messing up the host system. In theory it is possible to do what you want, at a variable degree of difficulty. The only problem can arise if gambas searches its components using absolute paths without querying environment variables. You can refer, in your script, to relative paths for executables, and use the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH for shared libraries. About /usr/lib and /usr/share, I am not sure about what gambas does. 2) I have the GridView in my program, that displays 4 thousands of rows. When it updates the data (4-10 seconds), program do not reflexes. There is a string in the documentation: You should use the last method if you have thousands of rows to display.. I'm sorry, I do not understand this at all. Could anybody explain this on a simple example? The second method refers to the Data event, and works like this: you don't load all the data in the GridView; instead, you wait for Gridview to ask for the data through the Data event. In the event handler, you load the requested data. This method if far faster because Gridview asks for data only when needed (ie, when they are visible). You put a Gridview in a form, and setup the Data event. When the form shows up, there will be, say, 10 rows visible; Gridview will raise the event 10 times, asking for data of each visible row. If you scroll the Gridview, as more rows will become visible, more data will be requested by mean of Data event. Sorry for the missing answers - I told you the few things I knew.

Re: [Gambas-user] set of questions
1) May I create proprietary (not open-scource) gambas2-applications and components for gambas2? Yes, but Qt3 is not free for proprietary use. 3) When I hide persistent Form, how to display it again? FromName.Show works with me..? 5) Can I easily convert my big project from the gambas2-project to the gambas3-project? With my project it was easy. Tools menu -- Update forms. Then possibly some minor changes to code. Example Write and Read, see documentation for details. 6) My project uses gb.qt3, gb.qt3.ext, gb.kde, gb.kde.html components. Can I easily switch them to gb.qt4 and other components, when my favour Linux-distr Debian will be updated? I think gb.qt4 is not completely ready yet.

Re: [Gambas-user] set of questions
what is the way to get modifying a cell inside a grid view like u click on a cell and start writing inside it then when u click away its already modified ? regards On Wed, Oct 21, 2009 at 4:47 PM, Jussi Lahtinen jussi.lahti...@gmail.comwrote: 1) May I create proprietary (not open-scource) gambas2-applications and components for gambas2? Yes, but Qt3 is not free for proprietary use. 3) When I hide persistent Form, how to display it again? FromName.Show works with me..? 5) Can I easily convert my big project from the gambas2-project to the gambas3-project? With my project it was easy. Tools menu -- Update forms. Then possibly some minor changes to code. Example Write and Read, see documentation for details. 6) My project uses gb.qt3, gb.qt3.ext, gb.kde, gb.kde.html components. Can I easily switch them to gb.qt4 and other components, when my favour Linux-distr Debian will be updated? I think gb.qt4 is not completely ready yet. But in future you can, if I have understand correctly. Qt3 -- GTK+ works well.

Uhm... I never used a Gridview in that way, I simply worked out with my words something that already is in the docs (in a very unixish fashion). I tried to explain better what the idea behind Data event is. But after that I have seen, in this thread, a complete example: I cut and paste: Hopefully this answers question 2. It is a distillation of the database example that comes with Gambas: You just need a gridview, a button called btnRun and a preferably large database with lots of columns so that you can scroll around with ease ' ' Gambas class file PUBLIC $hConnLocl AS NEW Connection PUBLIC $resData AS Result ' PUBLIC SUB Form_Open() DIM sql AS String 'open the database WITH $hConnLocl .type = mysql .host = localhost .Name = stock .login = charles .password=dog END WITH $hConnLocl.Open() 'create a result sql = SELECT * FROM grnLine $resData = $hConnLocl.Exec(sql) END '- PUBLIC SUB btnRun_Click() DIM hForm AS FRequest DIM hField AS ResultField DIM iInd AS Integer GridView1.Rows.count = 0 'set the required number of columns GridView1.Columns.count = $resData.Fields.Count 'define the column headers and width FOR EACH hField IN $resData.Fields WITH hField GridView1.Columns[iInd].text = .Name GridView1.Columns[iInd].width = 60 END WITH INC iInd NEXT 'create the empty rows. Each empty and visible cell created calls GridView1_data GridView1.Rows.Count = $resData.Count END '- PUBLIC SUB GridView1_Data(Row AS Integer, Column AS Integer) 'move to the required result row $resData.MoveTo(row) 'set the data for the cell in the GridView from the column in the selected row of the result GridView1.Data.text = Str($resData[GridView1.Columns[column].text]) 'lets you see how _data is being called as you scroll around the GridView PRINT row : column : Str($resData[GridView1.Columns[column].text]) END '-- Hope this is what you need.
