Title: Another SacksPB Example Project for FireFly
Post by: Ken Myers on November 15, 2004, 11:04:12 AM
This is just an example FireFly project.  It basically shows some of the flexibility of FireFly due to it's XML representation of forms, projects, etc.  This project really just focuses on discovering the following details of a form:

Name, Left, Top, Height, Width, and Text

Then it loops through the controls in the form showing the controls it contains enumerating the following control properties:

Name, Class, Left, Top, Height, Width, and Text

The unique piece to the demonstration is it shows how you can use SacksPB to parse attribute-centric documents.  I showed mixing SacksPB & string parsing to get the form properties and exclusively using SacksPB to get the control properties.

Anyway, you can see the source code and I included a compiled binary so that you can run it and see the results if you have not yet registered SacksPB.

I hope this gives other people some ideas as to what they can do with SacksPB and FireFly.  Don't forget to checkout the new CGI demos, ADO demos, etc. in SacksPB (okay, one pure marketing plug).

Title: Paul can you move this to the Examples Forum?

Paul,

Sorry, I didn't realize the other forum existed.  Can you move this example to wherever you think it is appropriate?

Hey Ken

3rd party section seems appropriate unless you want me to move it to source code.

Paul,

Thank you.  Certainly fine with me, I just wanted to make sure I followed the rules.

Title: Added to the standard distribution

This example for FireFly is now part of the standard distribution (which basically means I keep it updated for each version).
