Boy, I'm really glad to know that it WASN'T something simple and obvious 
after all!  Thanks.

My appalling ignorance - creating visual classes

2007-04-20 Thread Vince Teachout
Ok, I'm not a Class guru by any means, and I'm sure there's an easy way 
to do this, but after messing with it for the last 1/2 hour, I can't 
find it.
 
I followed up on one of the messages in the board the other day, and 
went and snagged the code to create a skype class.

You're supposed to be able to create a visual container class that you 
then drop on the form and mess with.  Problem is, I can't figure out how 
to create the visual class.  I can use the class editor to create the 
class AS container, but then I would have to manually add the properties 
and cut an paste the methods myself, and I don't want to.  The code 
starts out:


DEFINE CLASS aasskype AS container

Width = 78
Height = 22
msgid_skypecontrolapiattach = 0
msgid_skypecontrolapidiscover = 0
skypeapiwindowhandle = 0
Name = aasskype

ADD OBJECT label1 AS label WITH ;
AutoSize = .F., ;
Caption = Skype API, ;
Height = 17, ;

   Etc, etc,
followed by a bunch of PROC and Func declarations.

I tried running the code, adding the OF c:\mytest.vcx and re-running 
it, but it just sits there.
I plead ignorance.  How do I take the code, and with very little effort, 
create the vcx file that I can then add to my project?


etc, etc,

My appalling ignorance - creating visual classes

2007-04-20 Thread Eurico Chagas Filho
Hi Vince

I do it this way, (I did it, my way, FS the best)
I click on tab Class + New. Class Name, just choose whatever, based on,
choose Container and Store In, again whatever.
From them on u have a visual class and u can add the objects.

Thank you.  That's the way I know how to do it, but that would mean 
adding the methods by hand, and I was hoping to not have to do that.  
Thank you, though.

   Have you tried running your code to create the object, and then  
 using its SaveAsClass() method?

No.  Cool trick!  That WOULD have got it, but now I get a message One 
of the members of this class is based on a nonvisual class. Cannot write 
.VCX file.

So there is something wrong with the code itself.  But now I know how to 
do it for next time. Thanks!
