Writing for Linux
« Thread started on: Oct 13th, 2010, 6:50pm » |

Hi,
I'm writing a program which can be run a Linux machine with WINE. Generally everything is OK except for producing a toolbar. I'm using the WINLIB library, but it hangs. The status bar works fine, but not the toolbar. Is there another way of producing this - perhaps without m/c?

Where does it hang (use the Module Viewer add-in utility and Trace mode to find out)?
Does GUIDEMO.BBC (in the EXAMPLES\WINDOWS folder) run OK under Wine? I've never had any reports of a problem with the toolbar in that, and I would have expected someone to have mentioned it in nine years!

I've never succeeded in creating a toolbar without assembler code, but there's no reason at all why that would affect compatibility with Wine.

I've narrowed it down to two lines.
Set up lines are:
Code: nbutts% = 8 : REM toolbar buttons
DIM button%(nbutts%-1), buttid%(nbutts%-1), buttip$(nbutts%-1)
button%() = 6, 7, 5, 14, 12, 13, 11, 10
buttid%() = 100, 101, 102, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108
buttip$() = "New","Open","Delete","Print","Search","Search within"+CHR$13+"current listing","Help","Options"
Lines where it hangs:
Code: htool% = FN_createtoolbar(nbutts%,button%(),buttid%())
PROC_addtooltips(htool%,nbutts%,buttip$(),buttid%())
As I say, this works fine on my pc.
