Title: 3.04 not generating all handle declares
Post by: Mark Strickland on November 25, 2009, 09:46:18 PM
I have a large FF2 project that successfully converted from FF2 and worked in 3.03.  When upgraded to 3.04 it appears that some of the FF handle variables (HWND_....) are not declared and the application will not compile.  The problem seems to be Label Handles but that may not be 100% true.

I went back to the FF2 project and reconverted it with FF3 3.04 and got the same results.

Suggestions?  Can I downgrade to 3.03 to verify it worked in that version?

This could be in relation to issue discussed in Ivan's "crash" thread?

Try using the attached FF3 exe and import your project again. I have attached the latest FF3 exe to this post.

I've noticed that myself, if some of the LABELS are not showing, or you get a problem like the one you described, just click on ANY label on the form that contains that label, just select them, then compile, the problem will go away, is not a solution, just a workaround.

The new FF3.exe (attached here) solved my problem.  I never experienced any crashes, only the missing declares on some handle variables.

I have seen one other problem but it is not serious.  It happened on 3.03 also.  The very first compile on a newly converted FF2 project would also have a missing handle declaration for a control.  Do a second compile and it succeeds.

Ah ... complex software is such a joy.
