FF4

[Richard Kelly]

The silence on these forums reverbates loudly in my ear. I am made to think that folks are hard at work on FF4. It can't be soon enough

[Paul Squires]

  Yeah, working on it. Most of the code generation is now working. I had to do a lot of testing of different ideas that I had for changes to the code generation. I kept coming back to my original design. Granted, I have consolidated a lot of code with making one common message pump the biggest change. Every form (modal) now uses one instance of the generated message pump code rather than having message pump code generated for every Form.

Still much work to do, especially in the area of MDI and adding Jose's new features like web browser, etc.

FF4 will be cool without a doubt. Even so, the things I have been able to do thanks to FF3 / PB9 / Jose's efforts are absolute light years beyond what I would have achieved without them.

A clear example of uber-humans assisting a mere mortal!

Thanks Paul & all!

Not sure yet. I haven't coded much over the past two weeks due to work commitments. Trying to juggle many things at the moment.

Does "... Trying to juggle many things at the moment. " include watching the Canucks beat the Bruins?

Oh, snap! You didn't just say that?!?!     Bruins in 4 straight. Take that to the bank.

"Trying to juggle many things at the moment." must mean you are painting your house.

P.S - Wear a mask... the fumes are getting to you!

I have to travel to Toronto early tomorrow morning so I may not get to see the whole game tonight..... doesn't matter, Boston should be comfortably ahead by the end of the first period.

[Bob Houle]

Oooh... Ouch!

I hope the Bruins don't blame you for abandoning them in their hour of need!

--Bob

PS - It was a great game... could've went either way!

[Paul Squires]

game two is tonight! still traveling so hopefully i will get to see some of the game.

[Paul Squires]

Just got home from my week long vacation to the Toronto area. It was so refreshing...and getting to watch the Bruins win 8 to 1 last night really topped it all off!

[Bob Houle]

 

Well... I've had a few days to recover and now (in a moment of weakness) it's time to eat some humble pie.

"The Bruins are the better team and they deserved to win the Stanley Cup."

There.. I've said it.

I shall print this post, frame it, and hang it in my office so that I can bask in its truth every day.... 

(It was a great series)
