OT: recompile xharbour c-file

[Marc Vanzegbroeck]

Hi,

I have an old application, using 'xHarbour Compiler build 0.99.71 (SimpLex)'

In that version, there was a problem with the function directoryrecurse.

In the newer version it was fixed. How can I compile the newer c-file (direct.c), and link to my program, using my old library?

[Marc Vanzegbroeck]

The problem is that I get this error if I compile the source

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

Error E2303 direct.c 108: Type name expected

Are there some specials flags I have to use?

Marc,

Please post the source code for direct.c 108

Antonio,

This is line 108 in new latest release (the one with the error)

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

static void hb_fsGrabDirectory( PHB_ITEM pDir, const char * szDirSpec, HB_FATTR uiMask, PHB_FNAME fDirSpec, BOOL bFullPath, BOOL bDirOnly )

And this one with the old source than can be compiled

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

static void hb_fsGrabDirectory( PHB_ITEM pDir, const char * szDirSpec, USHORT uiMask, PHB_FNAME fDirSpec, BOOL bFullPath, BOOL bDirOnly )

I think the problem is that I can't mix those 2 releases, because the new one is using the variable 'HB_FATTR' that is defined in the new 'Hbdefs.h', and not in the old one.

Marc,

Lets compare the source code for function directoryrecurse in both versions and then we fix the old one.

Please post the source code for function directoryrecurse in both versions here

Antonio,

This is the old one

This is the new one

Marc,

You can not use this new C file with your xHarbour version, sorry.

What is the bug that you have using DirectoryRecurse() ?

[Marc Vanzegbroeck]

Antonio,

The bug is that I always get an empty array.

[Antonio Linares]

Marc,

Please build FWH/samples/elixir.prg to review if it may help you

Antonio,

Thank you, with the function into this example-file, I get all file files
