AfxNova_Web_2026

Readme for updating CWebview2.bas to AfxNova_webview2_2026

• Hi, just updated the ‘AfxNova-WebView2’ , to integrate a Help Tool for the Docs for ‘AfxNova’ as html.

• taken from examples latest in AfxNova-Main dated …_260528_1945 sha 998d7f1 …

• Changes

  • CWebview2.inc (UserDatafolder, now possible in “User-temp...”
    • i.e. %userappdata%\local\temp\…) or in …

1. Markdown to html is done with pandoc - ( fence code rules needing an editor w. R E)

   * i.e. 1rst:  regex (```\r\n---\r\n)# -> (```\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\n)# 
   *      2nd:   regex (---\r\n)#        -> (---\r\n\r\n)# 
   * and adapting  "Docs" folder names   i.e. Webview2 : - docs\WebWiev2 -> docs\Webview2
   * { A copy of AfxNova-Main-Readme is also available in html-folder }
   
   * Even when .md-docs are updated, the maintenance is an easy-peasy task (took me only 15 minutes)
   
   * The converted .Md-to-.html can just exchanged inside the folder structure. 

2. When using ‘pandoc’ as a batch job - actual 137 - by keeping the folder structure the same as Jose’s doc-folder

 - it may be used any Browser locally 
 
 * OR on a Webserver (if you like)

 * OR also within  IKO 1.3  TOOLS 
 
 * ... without or with an adapted Jose's CW_Webview2.bas

 * Fitting dir_name_idx.html as page index in this structure let me use it as an offline Help 

 * Integrating in Tiko is no rocket science.  * It works a simple tool , but it helps a lot.

 * File structure : html,css only ( no java,.js no php * no need !) 

3. Optional 
 - Compiling sample  of AfxNova_WebView2_2026.bas sample
   - Creating/adapting some lines of code in the AfxNovaWeb.ini-file 
   - Adapting some lines of the org. CW_Webviev2.bas for updated AfxNova_webview2.bas  ,
        - changing the pWebView2.Navigate(weburl) + start-index could be called from the app.
   - i.e. Instruction are in the CW_Snippet{1,2,3}_WebView2.txt for the CW_WebView2_2026.bas.

4. Epilog:

Archive: 
    * The '_TestPan_AfxNovaWeb2_2026.zip' archive contains
       -  AfxNova_webview2_2026.bas
    * The zipped Readme 
           {org_CW_WebView2.bas + snippets.txt(3)) + AfxNovaWeb.ini + this Readme.}
       -  and the AfxNova_Web as html structured folder 
Info:
    * As the comiled Webview2-app is to large for upload ,
      attached is only the sources (*.bas,*.ini) in a zip.
    The names of the ini-file :AfxNovaWeb.ini is hardcoded in the source.
    
    * Please do not forget to adapt it to your needs at least in the ini-file.

    *  here the template for the ini-file :
    [AfxNovaWeb]
    Root="V:\_testpan\_AfxNovaWeb14\AfxNova_idx.html"
    Puri="file:///"
    
    *  Comiling with Tiko and AfxNova of _260528_1945 sha 998d7f1... needs
    
    * proj.folder : (work.tiko) new project: manifest.xml,resource.rc
    
    .\AfxNova_WebView2_2026.bas (sample)
    .\loader.js
    .\WebView2Loader.dll
    .\AfxNovaWeb.ini 
    and UserDatafolder (applicable, if default is not %TEMP%)
    
    * and if testing at least:
    .\AfxNova_WebView2_2026.exe + .\AfxNovaWeb.ini + Userdatafolder/Temp
    

Have Fun !
