How to bound variable to windows/dialog

[fraxzi]

Dear Fiwinners,

How to make a dialog/window where variables are independently bound to that dialog/window?
Any sample? Idea?

FYI, Visual xHarbour has this feature.

Frances,

Could you provide a small example of what you need ? thanks

Frances,

I'm not sure what you mean by "bound" to the dialog or window. Why do you want to do this?

Maybe this will help. You could use the "cargo" data to hold an object. Create a class with all the variables you want then initialize that object and assign it to oDlg:cargo.

Code: Select all  Expand view

class TCargo
  data var1
  data var2
   method new()
endclass

method new()
   ::var1:=""
   ::var2:=""
endclass

oMyCargo:= TCargo():new()
oMyCargo:var1:="James"
oMyCargo:var2:="Frances"

oDlg:cargo:= oMyCargo

msgInfo( oDlg:cargo:var2 ) // returns "Frances"

You could use a database object instead of your own defined class if that wold work for you.

Regards,
James

Dear James,

I thought of opening dialog (no wait) and another one (same dialog) ... but the variables are the same..
If I changed value of variable from dialog1 will also affect on the dialog2 since they are both declared on the same dialog..

The variable should be bound to dialog1 and not-related to dialog2.. but are just one-dialog opened as NOWAIT.. something like that..

I saw this in visual xharbour or this youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHExFHNihZk

Frances,

Sorry, I still don't understand what you are trying to do. What varaibles are you refering to, those in the TDialog class or those in GETs on the dialog, or something else?

Could you provide a small self-contained example code?
