Wintegrate, UD
Hi, We are currently running an old green line GUI. I was told by IBM to look at Wintegrate to make my applications look more modern. I've downloaded the Wintegrate trial version but I don't know where to start. I've modified the coloring setting to get certain fields look like windows textboxes etc. But I'm sure that there must be another way of using Wintegrate to fullfill my needs. Anyone who knows where I should start? Should I redraw my screens in the Wintegrate dialog designer or what? I have downloaded all the manuals but can't find anything at a glance that shows me where to start my GUItilazation.

You might find something useful in the code samples that come with Wintegrate. In Winteg 3, they're in the example subdirectory.

Bjrn, You might also want to look at the AccuSoft graphical interface before you settle on wIntegrate. - Charles 'I also like the Nucleus/Accusoft Combo' Barouch Thomas Derwin wrote: You might find something useful in the code samples that come with Wintegrate.

RE: Wintegrate, UD
Björn I would start with loading the host subroutines onto my MV platform. Check the \Program Files\Wintegrate\Host directory. There's a script called Inst_Pgm.wis you can call it from the wintegrate Run-Script menu. It will install the MV API on your host, make sure you're in an account you want to do this to. There are a number of host demo programs on the host that you can run and take apart to see how it all fits together, and shows different techniques. There's also numerious examples loaded on witegrate dealing with dialogs that are run externally from the host. I've used both the dialog designer using external wis files, and creating the dialogs within universe code. There's advantages to both. I'm currently designing a program basic program that will take a file created using the dialog designer and create a basic program equivalent.

Re: Wintegrate, UD
Charles, Thanks for the plug on the Nucleus / Accuterm Graphical User Interface, however a note of extreme caution: tongue_in_cheek_ad I would only recommend Nucleus: * to those who just want to get the job done without having to re-invent the wheel * to those who have no desire to make a career of learning about gui objects and their attendent complexity * to those who want the grunt work done for them I would NOT recommend Nucleus if: * one has lots of time on one's hands and merely needs to look busy * one wishes to learn about GUI objects in order to get out of pick/U2 * you need to justify your existence and make your boss think that you are actually accomplishing something by spending three days to create a GUI screen using object calls that you could have created in ten minutes with Nucleus. * you have an overwhelming desire to increase your maintenance efforts by requiring separate rules for both GUI and character. /tongue_in_cheek_ad Lee Bacall http://www.binarystar.com Nucleus technology Phone: +1 (954) 791-8575, emergency# 954-937-8989 - Original Message - From: Results [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: U2 Users Discussion List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, February 16, 2004 11:14 AM Subject: Re: Wintegrate, UD Bjrn, You might also want to look at the AccuSoft graphical interface before you settle on wIntegrate. - Charles 'I also like the Nucleus/Accusoft Combo' Barouch -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
