Migrate to Harbour

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

Harbour crew changed ULONG to HB_ULONG. Too much for me. Sorry, I give up.

Enrico,

Its a minor difficulty and once you get used to it, its a very clever desition because using the prefix HB_ we avoid names collisions with other libraries names.

Trust me, and try it, please

Enrico,

I just tried TRY/CATCH/END in FWH 14.04 with Harbour. It's working fine.

Ok, I'll give Harbour another chance. But it'll be the last one.

Michel,

Enrico,

I just tried TRY/CATCH/END in FWH 14.04 with Harbour. It's working fine.

I'm currently testing Harbour in console mode, no FWH.

Any news about TRY/CATCH/END implementation in Harbour?

EMG

Not natively implemented by Harbour.
This is done by translates in fivewin.ch. So for us TRY/CATCH work the same way in both xHarbour and Harbour.

Mr. Rao,

yes, that was the problem, now I will go for the next tests

Hello,

I found a serious problem with ADS, I prepared a test.adt table with the follow structure (ADT) and show the type compatibility from xHarbour and harbour

Code: Select all

ADT                    xHarbour            Harbour
=================================================
DOUBLE                    X                     - 
DATE                       X                     X
BINARY                    X                     -
MONEY                    X                      X
INTEGER                  X                      X
CHARACTER              X                      X
AUTOINC                 X                       -
NUMBER                  X                       X
SHORT                    -                       X
IMAGE                     X                      -
 

The problems is with the ADS RDD implementation, maybe I'm doing something wrong, what I want to know is, if someone in the forum work with ADS + Harbour and use some of the data types I showed in the table

I have not worked recently but I did quite sometime back with both xHarbour and Harbour. All datatypes were available in both. In that version, some datatypes were displayed differently in xharbour and harbour.

can you post screenshots of:
XBROWSER DBSTRUCT()
?

Dear friends, any ideas on how to fix the error below on Harbour?

Code: Select all

Error: Unresolved external '_HB_FUN___CLASSINS'

In lib Harbour folder I noticed many .lib with "bcc" in their names. As I'm using BCC, do I have to use them? Or can I use the "standard" libs?

EMG

[Antonio Linares]

Enrico,

Please use the libs that are used in FWH\samples\buildh.bat thanks

Mr. Rao,

I add a image with 2 xbrowse with table structure, the more left is obtained with xHarbour and the other with Harbour

https://app.box.com/s/m8qryt63i5a4ae5iy3qq

My problem is to view the table's columns from FastReport, will be possible to overwrite DBSTRUCT to be compatible the data structure information between Harbour and xHarbour

Hello,

This seems to work

Code: Select all

FUNCTION dbstruct()
   LOCAL i, aS := {}, aLine, t

   FOR i:=1 TO FCOUNT()
      t := fieldType(i)
      DO CASE
         CASE t = "B"; t := "DOUBLE"
         CASE t = "W"; t := "BINARY"
         CASE t = "+"; t := "AUTOINC"
         CASE t = "T"; t := "TIME"
         CASE t = "P"; t := "IMAGE"
      ENDCASE
      aLine := { FIELDNAME(i), t, fieldlen(i), fielddec(i)   }
      AADD( aS, aLine )
   NEXT

   RETURN as

now I can't see the TIME type. I need to do more test to see if this is stable

Solved changing to __ClassInstance().
