Starting with Harbour/FWH – beginner question

[Otto]

Hello,
Trying to convert a small application from FW to FWH I need some help.

FW/Clipper
I have a own class Tsetup which I link compile with clipper

Clipper tsetup /n

and link it this way

Lnk-file in Fivewin

FILE c:\clipper\fwlink\Tsetup.obj

How can I do this in Harbour/FWH?

[Antonio Linares]

Otto,

Basically it is the same:

Harbour tsetup /n

>
and link it this way
Lnk-file in Fivewin
FILE c:\clipper\fwlink\Tsetup.obj
>

You also link TSetup.obj but using the way described in FWH\samples\buildh.bat

Antonio,
thank you.

Where does harbour store the obj-file. I only get a file with a
c extension.

c:\xHarbour\tests>c:\xHarbour\bin\harbour tsetup /n
xHarbour Compiler build 0.99.71 (SimpLex)

Compiling 'tsetup.prg'...
Lines 59, Functions/Procedures 4
Generating C source output to 'tsetup.c'...

Would you be so kind to insert the line with the tsetu.obj in
the following rmk-file.

#Borland make sample, (c) FiveTech Software 2005

HBDIR=c:\xharbour
BCDIR=c:\bcc55
FWDIR=c:\fwh

#change these paths as needed
.path.PRG = .\
.path.OBJ = .\obj
.path.CH = $(FWDIR)\include;$(HBDIR)\include
.path.C = .\
.path.rc = .\

#important: Use Uppercase for filenames extensions, in the next two rules!

Otto,

Harbour generates an intermediate C file that has to be compiled using the free Borland C compiler. Please review samples\buildh.bat and you will see how bcc32.exe is called to compile the C file.

echo obj\kasse.obj tsetu.obj, + >> b32.bc

Otto,

Since we have builders , i do not use bat file anymore.

Using a builder take care off all elements from the build process
We have very good builders as :

hbmake (part from xharbour)
xbuild (demo version or commercial)
xmate , very good , can be used with many compilers , also clipper !

I would add

UESTUDIO

The best in my opinion,
