Request: FiveWinVersion as number

[AntoninoP]

Hello,
sometime we need to keep the code compatible with 2 versions of fivewin, for example in 18.01 there is no more WndReadPalBmpEx that is replaced with FW_ReadImage.
in those case I would like write something like:

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

#if FWH_VER>=18
aBmpPal       :=  FW_ReadImage(,cResName)
#else
aBmpPal       :=  WndReadPalBmpEx(,cResName)
#endif
 

The problem is that there is no FWH_VER define, I think it would be useful in fivewin.h a define like:

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

#define FWH_VER 18.1

or better, splitted in 2 define.

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

function nFWVersion()
return Int( Val( Token( FWVERSION, ' ' ) ) ) + ;
            Val( Token( FWVERSION, '.' ) ) / 100

This will be a run-time check, my problem in this case is that "FW_ReadImage" is not defined in 17.12 so it does not link...
It is because I want a compile time check.

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

   IF FWVERSION = "FWHX 16.12" .OR. FWVERSION = "FWHX 17.01"

My code now:

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

#if defined(FW_VersionNo) .and. FW_VersionNo >= 18020
   nImage := FW_ReadImage( Self, cImage )[1]
#else
   nImage := WndReadPalBmpEx( Self, cImage )[1]
#endif
