Dialog Editor...

[CommonTater]

Does anyone know where I can get C (not C++) source code for a dialog editor similar to the one in POIDE?

Thanks!

I understand that there is one provided as a sample in the Windows SDK.

The BCX forum has source code for the Easy IDE (written in BCX) which you can run through the BCX translator for the C code.

If you end up pulling from different sources to build a dialog editor might I recommend my property grid for the property editor?  The source code for POINST Wizard demonstrates how I implemented it to change the properties of the wizard project.

Do you have a link for Easy IDE?  I'd like to get a look at that... 

Actually what I was hoping to do was to build an editor that could launch a live dialog and let the operator move things around, change certain titles etc...  It's part of a larger project where the company has spoiled it's key operators by customizing it's UI code for them... Now, I'm playing "keep up"....

Hello //Tater

First register for the BCX group on yahoo http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/BCX/.

Once you have access to the forum you can find the EasyIDE with BCX source code here:http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/BCX/files/EZ_IDE-NEW/EZ-IDE/

You will want to download the file  bc5.11 and rename it to bc5_11.zip and extract bc.exe.  This is the translator (version) that you will need to translate the EZIDE source code.

You will also want to download and install  EZ-IDE-setup-11.08-07.exe (source code will be installed too)

I recommend that you install the BCX Addin and Wizard for Pelles C which you can get from Garvan O'keef http://weekendcode.phatcode.net/  Addin page: http://weekendcode.phatcode.net/sub/bcx-addin.html.  This will make Pelles BCX friendly and you can look at, translate to C, and compile BCX code right in the Pelles C IDE.

Will do... thank you.

//Tater:  How did the dialog editor piece of your project work out?  I'm looking for something similar - preferably in C of course - and am eager to hear of your experiences.

Tnx.

Hi Tom... I got a little sidetracked and haven't done much with it yet... The idea was to let the end user customize certain aspects of data entry to their needs... live-editing a dialog, moving stuff around for best logical order and such, but not removing or adding anything... Right now it lives on a flash drive waiting for me to get some more time to play with it.
