Well, I downloaded it and was able to run the dabodemo stuff by following your instructions on the WIKI pages about installing dabo. I enjoyed the demo immensely, especially the behind the scenes. I even modified one of the screens files to see what would happen. (Just changed the range on one of the spinners.) I saved the changes and voila! it changed! Neat!
So there's no IDE yet. Well that explains why I couldn't find one. Where do I sign up for the dabo email list. If it is of a similar caliber to this fox list, I can't wait to jump in. I also would like some ideas on good stuff to help me get up to speed with PostgresSQL. i.e. What would be a quick way to migrate/recreate my present database in VFP to PosgresSQL? Would it make sense to write a VFP app to read the VFP database structure and recreate it in PostgresSQL? Personally I think it would be more productive to do it the other way.. i.e. from PostgresSQL, reads VFP structures and creates it in PostgresSQL. That way I would be learning how to do something in PostgresSQL not in fox. Another question: I installed Python 2.5. It came with what looked like to editors.. PythonWin or a command line one. Is there a difference in the functionality of either? The windows one seems a little easier to navigate in. Also, in my fox projects I set up directories under the root directory for the project thusly: Root - Bitmaps - images used by the application - Classes - base classes used by application - Forms - Forms in application - Menus - application menus - Progs - application programs - System - usually the dbc, system control files, are stored here - Reports - application reports - TmpFiles - test code, etc... stuff that can be deleted without problems.- temporary place to store code mods not fully tested and if the Data is local to the machine, a Data directory Does this make sense to carry this forward? i.e. a DaboProjects directory with the structure as above - how do I path to this? In my projects in fox, I have a small load program that paths all directories for that project on startup. I've watched your screen casts (all of them) and wow, it really looks like I could make an application happen. I realize I'm asking a lot of questions and thank you for your time and support.
