How to avoid PUBLIC warnings

This brief tip is inspired by a thread at the harbour-Users forum

Giovanni Di Maria :

How can I avoid the warnings of PUBLIC variables, compiling with -w3 flag?

Solutions

1. Maurizo la Cecilia : just add -a to your compiler flags 2. Qatan : For me the right thing to do is to use your public variables this way: M->PulicVariable := “value” That way you are going to “avoid” warnings 3. Viktor : Try hbmk2 --harbourhelp

HbQt, HbXBP and HbIDE - New Home Changed

Pritpal Bedi bedipritpal.s@gmail.com via googlegroups.com	Oct 2 (1 day ago)
to harbour-users

Hello Everybody

We discussed, as guided by Viktor, and debated by Francesco Perillo, 

over the use of "hbaddons" namespace, and unanimously, resolved that 

this namespace must remain reserved for Harbour's would-be-in-future 

implementation of "package(s)" protocol. The discussion can be read at 

google groups - qtcontribs.

So the new home to Qt related projects is now SF account:

QtContribs - Harbour Qt Projects

Checkout: 

http://svn.code.sf.net/p/qtcontribs/code/trunk

The Mission Statement:

https://sourceforge.net/p/qtcontribs/wiki/The%20Mission%20Statement/

Subsribe to QtContrib Developers List at:

https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/qtcontribs-devel

Developers and Users Meet together at:

https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en&fromgroups=#!topic/qtcontribs/

Download and build protocol remains the same:

1. Create "addons" subfolder in Harbour root as: harbour/addons

2. Checkout: http://svn.code.sf.net/p/qtcontribs/code/trunk  in this folder

3. Type: hbmk2 qtcontribs.hbp

4. Receive: hbqt*, hbxbp libraries in Harbour's build lib folder.

5. Receive: hbide.exe in Harbour's build bin folder

Hope to meet you at:

https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en&fromgroups=#!topic/qtcontribs/

Till then,

Pritpal Bedi

a student of software analysis & concepts

PS: do not forget to show your support by writing a review at SF page.

HbQt, HbXBP and HbIDE is back...

Hello Everybody

Let me enjoy the pleasure to announce the new home for 

HbQt, HbXBP, HbIDE, which, for good reasons, were removed 

from Harbour's repository.

Checkout: 

https://svn.code.sf.net/p/hbaddons/svn/trunk

How to get:

Create "addons" subfolder in Harbour root, as 

harbour/addons

And checkout with above link into this folder.

How to build:

Access the console as you would be accessing for Harbour.

CD to addons.

Issue: hbmk2 hbaddons.hbp -rebuild.

That's it.

The binaries will be deposited in where Harbour build deposits.

Mailing-lists for developers and users will be announced later.

I am really thankful to Maurizio, Francessco Perillo, Francesco Saverio Giudice

for their whole hearted support. SF "hbaddons" project includes 

Viktor and Przemek as Admins. 

It would important here to mention that the bug of HbIDE 

which throws GPF on EXIT on nix systems, reported by 

Przemek has been fixed. This GPF was also present on 

MSVC since begining, on all versions. The fix is materialized 

in .qth files, where I overlooked QSpacerItem, which is a 

non-QObject derived class but was being handelled as 

if it was a QObject. So, until someone comes across any such 

overlook, I can assume HbQt to be stable.

Hope to see you downloading these components...

Dbf Files on PHP by Roberto Lopez

Roberto Lopez roberbox@gmail.com	Aug 5 (5 days ago)
to harbour-users

Hi All,

I'm posting this here, because could be of interest for Harbour users.

I'm working in HMGSCRIPT. It is a JavaScript GUI library, created with the goal to allow the programmer use the same logic of desktop applications for web applications.

It handles MySql and dbf files via synchronous xmlhttprequest.

The support for dbf files via PHP scripts is intended for the following situation: Imagine that you have a Harbour based app running in a LAN and shared by various users, and you want to access the same files with a web client. The only thing that you need is to install an AMP server in the machine where the files are located and make the machine available via Internet, then HMGSCRIPT apps and LAN apps could share the same data.

IMPORTANT: I'VE NOT TESTED THE CLASS IN SUCH ENVIRONMENT YET, PLEASE CONSIDER THAT SOME ADJUSTMENTS COULD BE REQUIRED (SPECIALLY REGARDING SHARING AND LOCKING). THERE IS NO SECURITY IMPLEMENTED (YOU MUST DO IT FOR ANY REAL WORLD USE). USE FOR TEST ONLY AND REPORT ANY PROBLEM FOUND ON THIS THREAD. IDEAS AND CODE TO ENHANCE THE CLASS ARE WELCOME.

Since the dbf files support was dropped from PHP standard distributions, I've decided to code from the scratch a new class to do that.

Please, use carefully (specially to write operations) since the code is fully new and must be considered ALPHA.

Operations that set or get the field content handles all  original  dbf data types (character, numeric, logical and date) as strings (See the sample code for more info).

You can download at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/hmgscript/

Regards,

Roberto.
