Title: Splitter Custom Control For Firefly 2.xx?
Post by: Eric L Cochran on September 07, 2006, 03:27:37 PM
Paul,

I noticed you said you were going to include a splitter control in Firefly 3, and also that you said you were writing Firefly 3 with Firefly 2. Does this mean that you've got a splitter custom control ready for use with Firefly 2?
The lack of documentation on control controls makes it just a little difficult to develop a Firefly-compatible one on your own.

If not, does anybody?

Thanks.

Hi Eric,

I don't have a generic splitter custom control written yet. I use my own code for splitters in the applications that need them. In FireFly 3, I hope to have a special splitter custom control. That control will come after I finish FireFly 3.

In the meantime, I have piled together a FireFly example that shows a splitter in use. It has a Treeview on the left and a ListView on the right. You can download the project and examine the code for yourself. You should be able to modify it to suit your needs.

I can't get your example to compile. For some reason, that project code is giving me an error message that I haven't defined any of the paths (compiler, include, resource compiler, etc.), and I know for fact that they're defined because I've compiled some of the examples included with Firefly.

Any ideas? Probably a problem with absolute paths?

I am using PB 8 so I have defined that compiler in the project. Maybe you are using PB7 ??? Check under the top menu "Project", "Project Properties" and see what compiler is defined in the "Compiler" drop down combo box.
