MI-L MapBasic

[Cowper, Brian]

I was tweaking the code sent to me by Lars V. Nielsen for saving TFW with associated 
Map window images, changing the world file format from tfw to jgw, when I realized I 
don't have the ability to save as mbx files. I take it I need to purchase the MapBasic 
compiler to create mbx files?

As someone who has created Lisp and VBA programs in AutoCAD I find it surprising that 
this capability does not come with MapInfo as standard!

Regards,

Brian Cowper

MI-L Mapbasic

[Jeff Card]

I have a question regarding automating a couple steps of a project I am working on 
using Mapbasic.   I have a familiarity with MB and a little programming knowledge.  
Here is what I am trying to do:  I have a table of grids where I am creating an image 
for each grid.  What I have been doing is selecting each cell sequentially in the 
browser window and using Query>Find Selection to display it in the map window.  Then I 
use the layout window and do a File>Save Window As.  I guess my question is how would 
I perform the Query>Find Selection function in Mapbasic?

[MI-L] MapBasic

[Matthew Dolan]

Hi all:

 

I was wondering if there is a site or book, etc..  that
introduces users to MapBasic functionality and commands.  I am a heavy user of
MapInfo 6.5, but have no programming background.  I am thinking that using the
MB control would open up a whole new world to me and take my skills to another
level.

 

Two main issues I have currently:  1)Labels getting
scrambled when I refresh a database.  

      2)Creating
transparent polygons.

 

Thanks and I hope this makes sense to the experts out
there.

[Michel Van Asten]

Probably stupid but,

I need to dynamically build SQL statement in MapBasic. I have tryed
something like this :

...
Select s_tblLevelNames(i) from Matrice into RegionIds
...

If I do that I got a table with always the same value... the name of my
column !!!

If I replace this statement with a SELECT * the problem is to determine
dynamicaly the location of my column

Any help is welcomed.

[tony davidson]

hello fellow list members

I would like to add my voice to the recent and ongoing complaints from
Mapinfo users re the fact that Mapbasic is supplied as a separate
package. It should be bundled with Mapinfo. When will Mapinfo do the
right thing by its clients and see to this MAJOR limitation to an
otherwise  good product ? Its failure to do so will only result in ESRI
gaining greater PC GIS market share.

I would also like to see Mapinfo return to providing GIS for the Mac
platform. The  Mac OS X is a unix variation and Mapinfo could keep both
unix AND Mac users (a significant % of the market, going by recent OS X
sales figures) happy with a single product !! Alternatives to Windows
are worth supporting.

[Rakesh Rao]

Hello,

I have obtained a licensed copy of MapInfo 7 from our client for development 
use but 
Mapbasic is not part of it. I understand this is something that needs to be 
purchased 
separately. Fair enough. This is also being arranged by our client but it is 
likely to take some 
time to comlete the formalities. In the meanwhile, is there any way how I can 
obtain it for 
short time trial use, so as to use my time productively while waiting for it to 
arrive?

Regards
Rakesh

MI-L MapBasic Menu

[Chris D Kaveney/Homebuilders/DRHorton]

 I am hoping someone can point me in a direction here. I have a series of
MapBasic programs (1 for each map) that I would like to make into a menu
system so you could choose which maps to look at or print. While the
individual programs are working just fine, the menu program has gotten the
best of me.

Oh, one other little neat feature, I need to be able to print to different
printers across the network (US wide only at this point). I havent gotten
that or the ability to print to PDF's to work properly. The PDF's are
looking for user intervention, and I havent quite figured out how to get
the macros in for that.

  Any assistance would be great. This is using MapInfo and MapBasic 7.5


Thankx in Advance

MI-L MapBasic OnError

[Medsker, Michael]

Hoping someone can help me with a MapBasic question. I'm trying to use Fetch
to get Objects using Rec # from a table which contains deleted records.
Don't want to Pack first. I want to be able to note which row/record #s were
marked for deletion. Below is a test that I played with to see if I could
get MapBasic to print the rec number every time it hits a deleted record and
then print the total number of rows at the end. It doesn't work. The problem
seems to be that Resume try's to invoke every time the loop starts instead
of just when a deleted record is found. I get a "Found Resume while not
process an error, application halted" message. Note that I have moved the
error_dim_main: out of the loop but the Resume Next doesn't work after the
error, which is understandable because I jumped out of the loop.

Nrows_m is the row counter
Dim_line is the table


nrows_m = 0
Do While Not EOT(dim_line) 
nrows_m = nrows_m + 1 
OnError GoTO error_dim_main
Fetch Rec nrows_m From dim_line
error_dim_main: 
Print nrows_m
Resume Next
Loop 


Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
Mike

MI-L Mapbasic query

[Andrew Tracey]

Please help

I would like to automate the changing of styles for point object symbols to represent 
a predefined style.

I have over 100 different themes within one table and plan to change each one based on 
an identifying ID number. 

It must be automated, as the process will be rerun each month.

I have read mapbasic extensively   in particular   Alter object, set style MakeSymbol, 
CurrentSymbol() but have failed to provide a suitable solution.

The following code is very close and is supplied as a mapbasic example:

Dim symbolSave As Symbol Dim sSymbolAttr As String Dim sCmd As String 'store the 
current style so we can restore it latersymbolSave = CurrentSymbol() 'set a new 
"current symbol style" sSymbolAttr = "(35,65280,22)"sCmd = "Set Style Symbol 
MakeSymbol" + sSymbolAttrRun Command sCmd' use an Update statement to create a new 
Point for ' every row in the Selection table.  Each new Point' will use the new 
"current symbol style" Update "Selection"Set obj = 
CreatePoint(CentroidX(obj),CentroidY(obj))Close Table Selection ' restore the original 
"current symbol style" Set Style Symbol symbolSave

 This works for the mapinfo 3.0 compatible, with the set style command using 
makesymbol, however I am unable to adapt the code to allow the makefontsymbol clause 
to allow the use of the other symbol fonts including Wingdings, real estate etc.

I would be grateful if anybody could adapt the above code to include the rest of the 
symbol options.

Thankyou

MI-L MapBasic Question

[Sam J]

Hi,

I have a simple mabasic code that would add a new item under "Tools" menu to 
run a function inside a dll. I packaged the .mbx and the dll in an 
installation file. Once I install the package. I have now the mbx and dll 
installed. But when I double click on the short cut or start the program 
from start->Program files-> ..), I have a double menu item instead on just 
one menu item under "Tools". (not Ok).

If however I double click on the .mbx directly, i have just one menu item. 
(Ok)

I checked the short cut to the program and it's pointing correctly to the 
.mbx

Is there any way to fix this problem (double menu item)  or i guess double 
execution ?

I'm using MapInfo 6.5

Thanks

Sam Jhonson

MI-L MapBasic Differences

[Greg Gainey]

Hi

I am currently using Mapbasic v6.5 and have heard of newer versions v7.0
and v7.5. Can anyone tell me the differences between the three versions
and whether it is worthwhile upgrading to the newer versions? 

v6.5 does what I need at the moment but if the others offer more
functionality I would be interested discovering what it is.


Thanks
Greg

P.S. I know .Net is coming but I will deal with that when it arrives.

RE: MI-L Mapbasic

[Pieter Ouwerkerk]

Jeff,

I think that the easiest way would be to add the selection as a layer to
the current mapper and zoom to that layer. This would result in
something like this:

Add Map Layer MyTemporaryTable
Set Map Zoom Entire Layer MyTemporaryTable

'... Put your code for creating the image here

Close Table MyTemporaryTable


I always select items into a temporary table with the NoSelect option to
avoid crashes or stops when the max number of temporary tables is
reached. If you select into "Selection" the temporary table Query*
sometimes remains open after closing the selection.

Hope this helps

Kind Regards,
 
Pieter Ouwerkerk

[MI-L] Mapbasic applications

[Possberg, Hendrik]

I'm looking for information regarding the creation of applications for
external users. 
I developed extensive applications for internal use, myself but I think
that I'll have to consider specifics for the external use.
Can anyone give useful tips on that subject?

Is the book "Mapbasic Developer guide" of 1997 worthwhile? Or is it too
old? At least that's what I think!

Thanks in advance
Regards

[MI-L] MapBasic Question

[Tom Halbrook]

Hi Listers:

 

Being a MapBasic Neophyte, I have what will probably be a
dumb question. But here goes any way.

 

I manually select a record from table A, append it to table
B, delete the selected record from table A and then save both tables.

 

To automate steps I have built a button pad and associated
program to append the selected record to table B, then commit both tables. But
I can’t seem 

to find the right statement to delete the record from table
A. I know it’s simple but I’m at my wits end.

 

Any Help?

 

Thanks, Tom H

into something I can't do.

Please reply off list.

[MI-L] MapBasic Programs

[James Stott]

All,

 

I am trying to work out if it is possible to write a
MapBasic program that allows you to be able to select things from mapper /
browser windows while the program is running, like you can do with the image
registration tool.

 

Does anyone know if this is possible? Whenever I write
a MapBasic program you can never select from outside the programs dialog window.

 

Regards,

 

James

MI-L: MapBasic Question

[ALICIA COX]

I am going through a student workbook to learn mapbasic.  I have found the section on 
adding buttons to current ButtonPads, I have attempted this but it is not showing up 
on that ButtonPad (attempting to add an open workspace button onto the auto-opening 
Tool ButtonPad).  It says that it is compiling right but when I open Mapinfo It is not 
there.  Am I (or the workbook?) missing a paragraph somewhere, explaining that part of 
it?  Or some other reason.  (The only think I can so far think of I can not fix _ We 
can not write to the drive that Mapinfo is on)
Thank you in advance.

MI-L MapBasic Questions

[Morrier, Steve]

Hi Again,

Does anyone know why if I put the following line in my code nothing happens,
but if I change Wordpad to Notepad is works perfectly!?!?

If OpenTxt Then
  Run Program "Wordpad " + SelFile

Also is there any way to count the number of characters in a field, but only
count consecutive characters where there is no space? I am using;

Len(Name) >20

But this counts the total number of characters including spaces, I would
like to stop counting once a space is encountered. I am trying to make sure
that no name is greater than 20 characters, unless it is a double barrel
word.

TIA

Steve

MI-L MapBasic DEF

[Simmonds, Ashley (PTB)]

hiya all,
 
don't know if this is against any particular copyright thing or just not
good manners, but would i be able to request a copy of this MAPBASIC.DEF
file?
 
my department won't get MapBasic for me, so all my custom and integrated
mapping stuff is done by trial and error, mostly through looking at the
examples on this list.  However i keep coming up against things like
"TableInfo(TableName, TAB_INFO_NROWS)". it's only through trial and lots of
error that I find that TAB_INFO_NROWS just means "8".  it's really
frustrating seeing all these great helpy things and not being able to really
use them easily.
 
so if anyone could help it'd be much appreciated.
 
gramercy

MI-L MapBasic tool

[Frank MacEachern]

I'm looking for a tool/code that will enable me to map the flow of goods between 
multiple locations.  For example, widgets produces in one city and shipped to 30 other 
cities shown as a red line(s)/arrow(s).   The colour representing the type of widget 
(product) the thickness of the line representing volume and the course of the 
appoximating the shipping route.  

I seem to recall an application similar to that being discussed on MapInfo-L several 
years ago.

MI-L MapBasic environment

[Darrin Clement]

Hello,

This is a general question - can anyone describe the
MapBasic development environment or provide some screen
shots?  We are very familiar with the MapBasic window and
general syntax but only have a little experience with
compilers.  Is MapBasic a "visual" tool like VB/VC++?

We just need to create a bunch of custom MBX tools that
would have simple interfaces (prompt for input, radio
buttons, etc.) and are hoping that MapBasic uses forms and
present objects for rapid development without needing
another app like VB.  MapInfo's site is strangely sparse on
describing it.

Thanks!

Darrin

MI-L MapBasic DDE

[Wojtek Staszek]

Hi All

How could I find some more statemens useful to run through DDEExecute executing some 
action within MIcrosoft Excel. I' ve already found a few examples on the MapInfo web 
site - e.g how to open a file, or run a macro .  I would like to know how to select a 
range of cells and perform some action with this selection. I' ve tried to do this 
using visual basic for aplication statemens :
 
Dim i_chan as Integer
i_chan = DDEInitiate("Excel","Sheet1")
DDEExecute i_chan, "[Range("B1:B20").Select]"
 
but it does not work, however this is a part of very simple standard VBA statement 
(below)
 
Sub Makro2()
Range("B1:B20").Select
Selection.Replace What:=".", Replacement:=",", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
End Sub. 

How could I include some VBA macro statemens to execute this through DDEExecute within 
MapBasic application?
I hope you understand my bad english.

MI-L mapbasic tool

[Jacques Paris]

I am writing an application that adds a togglebutton to the tools tool bar
and uses the toolhandler procedure. It creates the togglebutton at the right
place and TWO mapbasic tool icons, one in tools, the other in main.
The one in main is “good” and follows MB guide indications; it reacts
properly to changes in the togglebutton status.
The button in Tools seems to be always inactive

Is there a way to prevent that useless button from appearing?

RE: MI-L MapBasic

[Warren Vick, Europa Technologies Ltd.]

Hello Michel,

Actually this is not quite right.

For table names, you can substitute a variable and the value of that
variable will be used.

e.g.

dim TabName as string
TabName = "world"
select * from TabName

However for field names, you need to use an alias to get the right results

dim FieldName as alias
FieldName = "CountryName"
select FieldName from world

You can construct a SQL select statement in a string and "run command" it
but it's often not necessary unless you need to build a complex query -
typically with a variable number of fields.

MI-L MapBasic Question

[Frank Aaron (EUS)]

I produce a number of mbx's that are employed by our company's internal employees and 
external 
contractors -- to that end would it be possible (and does MapBasic support) to 
integrate a segment of 
code that would limit the duration of the program's usage? Currently, we have several 
Visual Basic 
Applications where a code segment and a licensing program allows us to set the 
applications duration 
of use and protects against roll-back of the PC's clock. Does anyone have 
recommendations or examples 
of how one might be able to add such functionality to a MapInfo/MapBasic Tool? Thanks

advance,

Frank Aaron

MI-L MapBasic Problem

[Charlie Bernhardt]

Using MapBasic V3.
I'm trying to create a number of polyline objects and save them in a
table. I'm getting a compiler error relating (I think) to the insert
statement. I am trying to modify an mbx which I have used successfully
many times, which basically opens a workspace, gets user input, goes to
the desired map area, creates a polyline object which overlays the map
area, prints the map, then goes to the next selected area and repeats
the procedure, until done. I just overwrite the polyline object each
time as it's not necessary to save it in it's new location. Now I would
like to create a table of these polyline objects. Apparently instead of
the update command I have to use the insert command, and then commit the
table; but not having built anything with MapBasic except this mbx I
don't really understand what I'm doing wrong, nor do I have the time to
trial and error it. Here is the relevant code for building the polyline
object; can someone tell me how to make the insert statement compile?
Please ignore the references to printing. I just want to create a table
of these objects.

MI-L MapBasic Versions

[Ben Crane]

Hi all,

Question about MapBasic versions! I've got both MB 5.5
and 6.5 on my pc, but naturally I can't use MB 6.5
programs in a MI 5.5 environment (which is
understandable yet frustrating). I'm thinking of
putting together some MB programs for a website doing
a variety of small menial apps and was wondering
whether writing MB apps in 5.5 (whilst likely to work
on a majority of machines) would be a limiting factor
as MB and MI versions continue to move on, or whether
I should write them in 6.5 and cut out a potentially
large portion of users with 5.5 only.

Regards
Ben Crane

MI-L MapBasic Tool

[Eric's Mail \(Alt.\)]

I am looking for a mapbasic tool that dsimplifies the update column
procedure.  I am doing a land use map and I have 8000 records I need to
update with different values depending on land use.  I am using the update
column from the Table menu but it is tediuos at best.

I was wondering if anyone has automated this routine with a mapbasic tool.
Any help would be apprecioated.

hello fellow list members

I would like to add my voice to the recent and ongoing complaints from
Mapinfo users re the fact that Mapbasic is supplied as a separate
package. It should be bundled with Mapinfo. When will Mapinfo do the
right thing by its clients and see to this MAJOR limitation to an
otherwise  good product ? Its failure to do so will only result in ESRI
gaining greater PC GIS market share.

I would also like to see Mapinfo return to providing GIS for the Mac
platform. The  Mac OS X is a unix variation and Mapinfo could keep both
unix AND Mac users (a significant % of the market, going by recent OS X
sales figures) happy with a single product !! Alternatives to Windows
are worth supporting.

MI-L Mapbasic Problem

[Wohlgemuth, David Remi Francois (David)]

Hi listers,

I've got a programme where I've got a list of x,y co-ordinates as the input
and I'm trying to create 3 hexagons around each co-ordinate. For some reason
these new regions that I am creating do not appear when I add their layer to
the map. I'm not sure if the objects are being created properly or not. It's
probably something really obvious. Here is a snippet of my code.

Sub . etc
Dim .
.
.
.
.
.
.
open table "hexagons"
drop table hexagons
create table hexagons (dummy integer)
create map for hexagons Coordsys table "DU"

MI-L Mapbasic Problem

[PEM]

Hi,

May guess is that you have forgotten to set your coordsys before creating
your heagons

Try to add this line to your code before your enter the loop: (Set CoordSys
Table "DU"

 .
 .
 .
 create table hexagons (dummy integer)
 create map for hexagons Coordsys table "DU"

 Set CoordSys Table "DU"

 Radius = cellR*1000
 .

MI-L Mapbasic question

[Slaven Blake]

Hey Listers,

I've never been good at writing code so I'm hoping someone out there can
help me.

I have a table with a list of building applications that I want deleted from
the main building applications table.  But when I run a simple select query
in mapbasic selecting all records in the main table that have a
corresponding app number with my list then try to delete all records in the
result query I get a message saying "Cannot delete from view".  I can do all
this in MI with no dramas but its got me stumped why its stuffing up in MB.

This is what I've written that is causing the error message:
Select Build.Baappln, Build.Pid, Build.Lotplan, Build.Location,
Build.Suburb, Build.Type, Build.Class, Build.Recd from Build, AppList where
Build.Baappln=AppList.Baappln into temp
Delete from temp

Any help will be appreciated.

MI-L MapBasic Freeze

[David Booth]

Hi Everyone,

Every so often, when I save and compile (ctrl-K) a mapbasic program,
MapBasic freezes and I have to re-boot. It's an inconvenience, rather than
life-threatening (the changes are saved OK before the freeze), but if anyone
has experienced similar and has a fix, I'd be very grateful!

The PC in question has MB 6.0 running under Windows ME. I don't get the
problem with NT4.

TIA

see the winzip window.
 
I want the user see his files in the winzip window 
and can do some operations in this window...
 
also
 
in a mapbasic program, it's possible to specify 
some file to send by mail ? i.e. automaticly in mapbasic call a method that open 
a send mail window with the specified mails attached to.

RE: MI-L mapbasic

[Jacques Paris]

I was
wondering the reason of this code because I knew of the menu commands of the
file menu : Send Mail | Current Window and | Workspace (114 and 116) and I
tried to use the “run command menu”. To my surprise, I did not get any action
from the Mbwindow or a one-line compiled MB program.

 

Would
anyone know about that specific limitation of the “rmc” for those commands?

I'm afraid not. The "Demos and Downloads" section for MapBasic on 
MapInfo's website doesn't include a 90-day trial download like most of 
their newer products, so I think you'll to wait for your cliemt to get it 
for you.

MI-L MapBasic Compatibility

[Greg Gainey]

Hi Listers
 
Has anyone noticed a problem with backwards compatibility running an MB
app compiled with MapBasic 7.8 on an earlier version of MapInfo (7.0,
7.5).?
 
I recently tried to run my app in MI 7.5 but received an error message
telling me I need MI 7.8 to run the app. This is strange and I haven't
added any code to the app that makes use of the new features in MI 7.8.
 
I cannot find any documentation or reference to say that it won't work.
In fact everything hints at the opposite.
 
 
regards
Greg

MI-L MapBasic Question

[Charles Kane]

Sorry to repost but I did not get any replies:

I have a directory containing approximately 2000 georeferenced tif files and I 
need to open them in MapInfo. The problem I am running into is twofold:

1) It asks me to specify the projection for each raster (they are all the same 
projection) - it would take hours to do manually.
2) I do not have a table containing the raster names otherwise I would write a 
program to do this

Does anyone know of a program or the code that will allow me to open files in 
batch and specify the projection?
How about code to open all of the files that are in the same directory without 
knowing the names?

Thanks in advance.

MI-L MapBasic Question

[Johanna D. Tomesch]

Hi all,

I have a question regarding MapBasic and was hoping someone could point me
in the right direction.

I am writing a program that has a table containing the names and paths to
multiple data sets.   All the data set names populate a MultiListBox.  When
I select a data set out of the MultiListBox I want the program to  read the
path out of the table and then open the data set.   I can't quite figure
this out.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks a lot,

MI-L Mapbasic Program Problems

[Jbgramm]

Greetings,

My dilemma is this.
I have written a mapbasic program that is designed to change the Line Style 
of many different lines in different layers to specific line styles.

The program registers a .dbf file that contains the names of the layers to 
edit, the feature types to edit, and the line styles to change the features to.

The fields are named Shp_Layer, Map_Event, Map_Line, Pen_Line respectively.

The Program fetches the first line of the .dbf file and checks for the 
existence of the Map_Layer, if the Map_layer exists it is then supposed to alter the 
existing line style to the style that resides in Pen_Line field of the .dbf 
file.

The problem that arises is that I get an error stating that the program was 
unable to convert the data.
The program properly selects the Map_Event however it does not seem to set 
the Pen Style properly

I am including the troublesome code Below

I do not wish to Hardwire the Line styles for this program since it needs to 
be rather dynamic for given projects.
I am sorry for the ugly code and all of the comments, I have pulled out all 
of my remaining hair and started working on my cat. (Just Kidding)


source_layer1 = shape_Lines.daily_lyr  (This is a String)
source_layer = Rtrim$(SHAPE_lines.daily_lyr)
shape_layer = shape_path + source_layer + ".tab"
event_type = shape_lines.map_event(This is a String)
STRINGSYM = shape_lines.pen_line(This is a String)
newsymb = shape_lines.pen_line  (This is a String)
newsymb = Rtrim$(newsymb)
'Line_style = shape_lines.map_line

- sPenattr = newsymb
 or sPenattr = shape_lines.map_line I 
have tried this as both a String and a Pen

'Set Style Pen newsymb

'   Run Command "Set Style Pen " + Newsymb

if FileExists(shape_layer) > 0 then
set map
layer source_layer1 editable on
query_count = 1
Select * from Source_Layer1
 where Rtrim$(Feat_type) = Rtrim$(event_type)
'Into Make_file

If SelectionInfo(SEL_INFO_NROWS) > 0 then
'Fetch first from Make_file  } 
'Select_counter = 1  }
 }
'Do While Not EOT(Make_file)   }
'   Select obj from Make_file  }
'   Where RowID = Select_counter }
'   into Line_obj}

'Select * from line_obj}

'Pen_style = ObjectInfo(Selection.obj, OBJ_INFO_PEN)}
'qc = "query" + query_count}

'region_style = MakeBrush(34,PCOLOR,-1) }
'pen_style = MakePen(2,5,PCOLOR) }

'set style Pen pen_style}
'set style Brush region_style }
Select object from selection
into Line_obj

'Sel_obj = selection.obj   --  I have used the 
remaining code sucessfully in other programs
Alter Object Sel_obj
Info OBJ_INFO_PEN, sPennatr

Update Selection Set obj = Sel_obj

'Close Table Selection 

Commit table source_layer1

'Fetch next from Make_file
'Select_counter = Select_counter + 1
'Loop

end if
End if

fetch next from Shape_lines
select_counter = 0

Loop

end sub
'*
***

The program Compiles in several different iterations, however it never works 
properly.

Is it possible to convert a string to a pen?
the map_line field contains data such as this Pen(2,73,16711680)
the pen_line field contains data such as this MakePen(2,73,16711680)

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

MI-L MAPBASIC BASIC DOUBTS

[Samuel E.R]

Hello to all...
Me whichever referring doubts to LIKE SAYING command post MAPBASIC have arisen one:
 1.EL THAT SO HAS SUCH IN THE COLUMN OF THE TABLE AS 
2.EL THAT NOT THIS WITHIN SUCH OBJECT
 3.EL THAT INTERSECT WITH WHICH INTERSECT 

By the way: somebody knows if there are some mbx that can make the conversion of a 
table of lines in one of poligonos creating topology?. And some extension that divides 
a region in others of a certain area? Ale, a greeting! 

RE: MI-L MapBasic Question

[Canfield, Andrew]

It will create an .mbx but you probably have a call or declare to a function
it can't find in the current module. It then assumes it's part of a project
so it creates an .mbo which is the file extension for a "MapBasic Object"
you can create an .mbx from .mbo's by linking them in one project. It allows
MapBasic developers to modularize their code so individual .mb files do not
get so large as to be impossible to read and maintain.

It will create an .mbx but you probably have a call or declare to a
function
it can't find in the current module. It then assumes it's part of a
project
so it creates an .mbo which is the file extension for a "MapBasic
Object"
you can create an .mbx from .mbo's by linking them in one project. It
allows
MapBasic developers to modularize their code so individual .mb files do

RE: MI-L MapBasic OnError

[Warren Vick, Europa Technologies Ltd.]

Hello Michael,

The reason for your error is that once your fetch has been done
(successfully or not) the code for your error handler is encountered and the
"resume next" is called without the context of an error. You need to
terminate your subroutine with an "exit sub" (or "exit function" if it's a
function) *before* the error handler so that this code is really only called
as the consequence of an error. Hope that solves the problem.

Hoping someone can help me with a MapBasic question. I'm trying to use Fetch
to get Objects using Rec # from a table which contains deleted records.
Don't want to Pack first. I want to be able to note which row/record #s were
marked for deletion. Below is a test that I played with to see if I could
get MapBasic to print the rec number every time it hits a deleted record and
then print the total number of rows at the end. It doesn't work. The problem
seems to be that Resume try's to invoke every time the loop starts instead
of just when a deleted record is found. I get a "Found Resume while not
process an error, application halted" message. Note that I have moved the
error_dim_main: out of the loop but the Resume Next doesn't work after the
error, which is understandable because I jumped out of the loop.

Nrows_m is the row counter
Dim_line is the table


nrows_m = 0
Do While Not EOT(dim_line) 
nrows_m = nrows_m + 1 
OnError GoTO error_dim_main
Fetch Rec nrows_m From dim_line
error_dim_main: 
Print nrows_m
Resume Next
Loop 


Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
Mike

MI-L MapBasic And UltraEdit

Hi All,

I noticed that many people seem to use UltraEdit as their MapBasic editor.
Currently I use MBCoder (and I am happy with it), but thought I would
UltraEdit.  I see that I need to modify the wordfile.txt to get the
highlighting to work properly.  Could someone please send me the
modifications I need to make to this file.

MI-L MapBasic path problem

[Claude Couture]

Hi,

 

We have a mbx file compiled in MapBasic 7.5.  When we run the mbx, we
always have the following problem:

1)  The MapBasic start, recognize the path and run the application

2)  In the middle of the process, the following error appear in
windows: Unable to find path ., please double check the path or the
file name, etc.

3)  The program still running and complete all the tasks in the
application. 

 

This error file cause us several problems because in one hand it means
that the application is done and in the other hand the application is
not finish and still running.

 

How can we avoid this message or what in the MapBasic program could
bring this error

 

Thank you in advance

RE: MI-L MapBasic initiation

The only MapBasic book available (I think) is called MapBasic Developer's
Guide by Angela Whitener & Breck Ryker (ISBN 1566901138) published by OnWard
Press.   MapBasic is fairly easy to pick-up just by working through some of
the samples provided (it must be I did it!) and working through Development
Environment User's Guide, if you have it.  Failing that I think Jacques
Paris has some documentation on his site that may be useful

RE: MI-L Mapbasic query

You could try something along the lines of the following

sSymbolAttr = " (35,0,12,"+Chr$(34)+"Wingdings"+Chr$(34)+",0,0) "  
Print sCmd
sCmd = "Set Style Symbol MakeFontSymbol" + sSymbolAttr
Run Command sCmd

Note the use of the Chr$(34) which will return a double inverted comma
(to give you this:""") and the use of MakeFontSymbol instead of
MakeSymbol


However, have you considered thematically shading your map window with
your ID column - this might be a simpler option.

Subject: MI-L Mapbasic query

Please help

I would like to automate the changing of styles for point object symbols
to represent a predefined style.

I have over 100 different themes within one table and plan to change
each one based on an identifying ID number. 

It must be automated, as the process will be rerun each month.

I have read mapbasic extensively   in particular   Alter object, set
style MakeSymbol, CurrentSymbol() but have failed to provide a suitable
solution.

The following code is very close and is supplied as a mapbasic example:

Dim symbolSave As Symbol Dim sSymbolAttr As String Dim sCmd As String
'store the current style so we can restore it latersymbolSave =
CurrentSymbol() 'set a new "current symbol style" sSymbolAttr =
"(35,65280,22)"sCmd = "Set Style Symbol MakeSymbol" + sSymbolAttrRun
Command sCmd' use an Update statement to create a new Point for ' every
row in the Selection table.  Each new Point' will use the new "current
symbol style" Update "Selection"Set obj =
CreatePoint(CentroidX(obj),CentroidY(obj))Close Table Selection '
restore the original "current symbol style" Set Style Symbol symbolSave

 This works for the mapinfo 3.0 compatible, with the set style command
using makesymbol, however I am unable to adapt the code to allow the
makefontsymbol clause to allow the use of the other symbol fonts
including Wingdings, real estate etc.

I would be grateful if anybody could adapt the above code to include the
rest of the symbol options.

Thankyou

[MI-L] MapBasic Bitwise Operators

[Ian Tidy]

Title: MapBasic Bitwise Operators






Hi All,


I am wanting to use bitwise operators in MapBasic, but I can't find any information on them.


Does anyone know if the exist and how to use them, or do I need to write my own functions?

[MI-L] MapBasic and MapXtreme

[Ronning, Christine]

Title: MapBasic and MapXtreme






Hi all,


Excuse my ignorance in this, but hoping to understand a little bit more about the relationship between MapInfo capability with web software (MapXtreme).  After a little research I see that you can use .NET languages which brings me to my question.

If for example I wanted to created a intranet application that allowed employees through a site,  to enter a desired location with a few options of what they wanted on their map and see an output, would this programming be done all with a .NET language or would some of it be done using MapBasic?  So if I were to write a program in MapBasic that ran some spatial queries could this then be called from a VB.Net program that is run from the MapXtreme application?

I apologize if this doesn't make sense, but hopefully someone understands my question!  Thanks


Christine

[MI-L] MapBasic C# dll

[McGowan Dean]

I have written a dll in C# express edition and would
like to call its functions from MapBasic. Here are my scripts:

 

C#

using System;

using
System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Text;

using System.Data;

 

namespace MapInfoTools

{

    public class MIFunctions

    {

    public double GPS_X()

    {

    //Return test value for now.

    return 1;

    }

    public double GPS_Y()

    {

    //Return test value for now.

    return 2;

    }

    }

}

 

MB

Declare Function GPS_X
Lib
"C:\Projects\C#\MapInfoTools\MapInfoTools\obj\Release\MapInfoTools.dll"
as float

print GPS_X()

 

My MB application compiles correctly but produces
error 342 (“External library does not contain GPS_X…”) at runtime.
Can anybody point out where I am going wrong?

Cheers, Dean

Re: [MI-L] MapBasic Question

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Hi Tom,

Try:

delete from tablename [where rowid=n]

You'll need to supply the table name in place of "tablename". The 
optional rowid where clause allows you to select a particular record to 
delete.

Hi Listers:

Being a MapBasic Neophyte, I have what will probably be a dumb 
question. But here goes any way.


I manually select a record from table A, append it to table B, delete 
the selected record from table A and then save both tables.


To automate steps I have built a button pad and associated program to 
append the selected record to table B, then commit both tables. But I 
can’t seem


to find the right statement to delete the record from table A. I know 
it’s simple but I’m at my wits end.


Any Help?

Thanks, Tom H

[MI-L] MAPBASIC & Vertical Mapper

[Jackson, Simon \(Capita Symonds\)]

Is there a way I can get MapBasic to tie in with
vertical mapper so that I can attempt to create a batch grid processing system.

 

Basically.

 

Interpolate an irregular points layer (option to
select search radius for an IDW)

Subtract this layer from a DTM layer

Remove zeros from resulting layer

Export to ASCII.

 

Any ideas or should I not even attempt this with MB?

[MI-L] Mapbasic & Vertical Mapper

[Jackson, Simon \(Capita Symonds\)]

Ok, I have the S-Dev-Kit.
I need to tie MapBasic into VM so that I can create some batch routine
for subtracting some grids, a grid query and outputting as ascii.  I
asked this awhile back and got not much reply.  I assume it is possible?
Any good links to sources that maybe able to help?

I really need to get this sorted soon. Any help would be much
appreciated,

RE: [MI-L] MapBasic Programs

[Driver, Greg 9434]

Title: Message



James,
 
One 
option would be to embed a map window or browser within your dialog box and 
allow the user to interact with this map, so you wouldn't have to exit the 
dialog box.  You'd have to use the 'Control DocumentWIndow' clause within 
your dialog box to embed the map/browser window and also set up some buttons to 
allow the user to select, zoom & pan around the map window.  For an 
example on how to do it have a look at the Distance Calculator tool that ships 
with MapInfo and the code that comes with MapBasic.

  All,
   
  I am trying to work out if it is 
  possible to write a MapBasic program that allows you to be able to select 
  things from mapper / browser windows while the program is running, like you 
  can do with the image registration tool.
   
  Does anyone know if this is 
  possible? Whenever I write a MapBasic program you can never select from
