Progress bar from XbpPack2

I have window flicker with DCPROGRESS but cure it by using EVERY 2

Here is an updated PROGRESS.PRG.

Make sure to put it into a new directory under \exp19\samples name XbpPack because it will reindex files from a directory that is relative to it.

thank you Roger for your update

can i use your programstructure for .NTX also?
(if i change and replace the "Ordsetfocus" and the "Ordcreate" Command)

I*'d like to play with it, but i don't have the xpppack2.ch file. Where can I get that from?

[RDalzell]

With your current Alaska subscription, downloaded from the Alaska site.

[BruceN]

Guess I can't use it then... don't have subscription. My loss. 355 was the end of mine and in this economy can't afford to renew - well I could, but then the kids would only eat once a day

I wonder if Alaska would allow me to redistribute the XbpPack2.Dll provided that I don't redistribute the .Lib or source files. In my sample, the XbpPack2.Dll is loaded dynamically, so the .Lib and source are not needed.

[rdonnay]

The reindexing sample will work just as well with .NTX files.

The only change you need to make is to the array.

The first element of each subarray is the index file name.
Use the same name as the file name for the tag name.

Roger,

Yes, In my opinion you can redistribute that DLL. If you create a software which is using this option you even need to redistribute it. If you have a sample progressbar.exe, you need to zip that DLL. Evryone who want to evaluate your sample, will get that DLL.

It is also in the Xbase++ licence, without the right to distribute the DLL files, Xbase++ would be useless.

Chris -

I know that I can distribute dlls to end users, but I wasn't sure about distributing them to programmers.
I am going to assume I can do that so here it is (attached).
