So far - I have not seen any references to COM - only DLL and some DDE kinda stuff.
I'm hoping I can simply run like a Batch file - that calls CodeWright and give it parameters of files for it to compare - and then it just does it. I did create a batch file to run CodeWright, and I put a file name as a parameter - and it did indeed run CodeWright and open that single file. At this point - I'm still kind of experimenting with it - and looking around in the help files. -K- -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Richard Kaye Sent: Friday, May 08, 2015 3:10 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: VFP, SccText & CodeWright - Oh My... I have used a product called Araxis Merge for years and it supports COM automation. I wrote a VFP wrapper that instantiates the object, sets the necessary props and calls the appropriate method to compare. If there are diffs, it makes the object visible. If not, it just pops up a message box to say no diffs. If Codewright supports COM you should be able to do something similar. -- rk -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kurt Wendt Sent: Friday, May 08, 2015 1:20 PM To: [email protected] Subject: VFP, SccText & CodeWright - Oh My... Hey folks, So - in relation to another recent discussion thread (Source Code Version Control) - where the usage of SccText was mentioned. I want to do something - which I figured should be relatively simple. We already use the utility SccText here at my day job. And, I know that Fernando here suggested using FoxBin2Prg instead. But, I think for now - SccText works well enough. After the Text files are generated, based upon a Screen/Form - we here use CodeWright to compare the 2 text files. What I would like to do is streamline the process - and after the 2 Text files are generated via SccText - then somehow launch CodeWright and automatically have it bring up the 2 files for comparison. Now - I know CodeWright is some Really Old stuff. But, I suspect someone here has worked with it. I started looking at the online help for CodeWright - and there is mentioned of this DDE stuff for CodeWright. But, am having trouble just trying to find a simple example of doing what I want - and was hoping that maybe someone here could point me in the right direction.
