Scott Smith | First run through with VX on Wed, 28 Apr 2004 21:21:04 -0700 Just wanted to say, despite a few minor bugs (which I sent via e-mail to support), my first experience with VX was good. It's shaping up VERY nicely. Hats off to the team! - Scott | |

Scott Smith | Re: First run through with VX on Thu, 29 Apr 2004 22:59:20 -0700 After looking at it a bit more, the bug maybe because when VX was installed, it did not update my xbase++ 182 installation. Because I have a few versions of xbase++, xbase++ is not "formally" installed. My guess is that the new debug DLLs need to replace those in the standard runtime and all would be fine?? | |
politicallyIncorrect | Re: First run through with VX on Fri, 30 Apr 2004 07:44:42 -0600 correct. you want to back up the Debug dll for 1.82...... Visual over rides it and you lose the original DLL for Xbase Scott Smith wrote: > After looking at it a bit more, the bug maybe because when VX was installed, > it did not update my xbase++ 182 installation.

Scott, We did intend the debugger DLLs to replace the original ones . However, I can't promise you that your problems will go away then. This is because I haven't gotten round to actually reproducing them. I seem to remember that the last revision had problems with certain debugger views that didn't check the current debugger state properly. This sometimes caused operations to be allowed/performed that weren't exactly legal. Such as manipulating callstack items when the app. was actually executing code. However, if you intend to use VX I'd suggest you give it a clean runtime to sit on anyway! And remember: always make copies of your files, folks !!

Scott Smith | Re: First run through with VX on Fri, 30 Apr 2004 16:08:32 -0700 The error I sent you was in German... so, unfortunately, I don't know what it was saying... not that I need to know <s>. I've used xclass for a few years now and all the code is documented in German... you'd think I'd start picking some of it by now.... but my language challenged self finds it easier to read code than German <s>. Although I still remember some Kurundi from spending several years in Burundi as a child.... To bad no one in Burundi is creating code libraries documented in Kurundi! I think they are too busy with minor things such as genocide, food and disease. | |

Ive been in Rwanda 17 years ago, we had several developping programs supported from the university at Heidelberg there. But my language capabilities are not so good, I dont remember any words... Yes, while I was there I several times had the impression that the whole area is a big bottle of TNT and it needs only a person to put some fire on it. There was a relative freedom an peace there at this time and at least the gouvernement of Rwanda at that time did a good job and nearly every one there had enough for eating. They had a very stable internal rural ecomony and they did not depend on international large companies to buy seeds and NPK and others, they have been poor but independent. But such a situation can not be tolerated by international companies and organizations, so it was expectable that someone will come and throw the fire into it. And it happened, they murdered the president and the killing started. Klemens Klemens |
