can build with 8.03 and feb xharbour butr still does not display jpg images
cannot buuild with 8.04

Peter,

I guess that you are using xHB commercial.

Please ask Patrick Mast for a new beta, thanks

HB_FUN__CLSACTIVE.

Ron Pinkas said to uninstall all previous versions and then rebuild but this did not make any difference. I can build with 8.03 but not 8.04 and I still cannot view jpg with 8.03

Peter,

Have you tried adding this function to your main PRG ?

function __ClsActive(); return .F.

also try with

function __ClsActive(); return .T.

Antonio
yes tried both but then it just gpfs

Peter,

Patrick Mast said he has a working beta that works fine with FWH 8.04

Will ask Patrick but that is proably a beta which is not available yet.

Have you tried compiling with xharbour

Peter,

If you use the xHarbour build that we provide (free one, not commercial) it works great with FWH 8.04.

Why don't you use it in the meantime ? Richard Chidiak and others here have migrated from the commercial one to the free one, and they are very happy

It looks as the free xHarbour version is much actively upgraded than the commercial one.

I need the sdqrdd so I am probably stuck with the commercial one

Peter,

If you mean the SQLRDD there is already a Borland version, so you can migrate to the xHarbour Borland free build and never have these troubles again

The xHarbour developers work on the free version and later on they port to the commercial version, thats why the commercial version is so outdated

OK
So what is involved in changing

Just install the xharbour.exe that we provide and download the free Borland C compiler from here: www.fivetechsoft.com/files/freecommandlinetools.exe

Install Borland and then create these two files in c:\borland\bcc55\bin:
(alternatively you can use c:\bcc55 instead of c:\borland\bcc55)

bcc32.cfg:
-I"c:\borland\bcc55\include"
-L"c:\borland\bcc55\lib"

ilink32.cfg:
-L"c:\borland\bcc55\lib"

Then go to fwh\samples\buildx.bat, edit it and adjust your paths, and then do: buildx.bat tutor01

You should get your first running EXE with the free xHarbour and FWH 8.04

How do I get the xharbour.exe

My login and password are not working

Peter,

You can download xHarbour.exe from here:

www.fivetechsoft.com/files/xharbour.exe
