- Precognition Multiple Window Writer
- Alpha Release, August 19, 1993
- Lee Willis
-
- The Precognition "Builder" program generates code for a single window'ed
- application. I've had a number of requests to do multiple windows.
- The "right" way to do this would be from within the Builder program, but
- that would require re-writing massive amounts of the Builder, and I'm not
- sufficiently motivated to do that.
-
- So instead I've written "MultiWindowWriter", which will generate the source
- code for a multi-window application.
-
- How It Works:
-
- 1) Using the Builder program, design each window individually (Make sure
- you give each window a different variable name!), and save each
- one to a file. Do not generate code.
-
- 2) Run MultiWindowWriter in the directory where you want the code generated.
- Add the filenames of all the Precognition window files into the scrolling
- list. (Either type them, or use the "File Requestor..." button.)
-
- Click "Write the code...".
-
- MultiWindowWriter will generate a "main.c" file, and one ".c" and
- one ".h" file for each window in the application.
-
- NOTES:
-
- By default, closing any of the application's windows quits the program.
- To get rid of this behavior, you need to remove the line
-
- Done = TRUE;
-
- In the window's "<WindowName>_Respond()" function.
