Hi,

I'm re-discovering U++ after several years without using it, and I'm lost with simple things Embarassed

How can I add in my applications some controls coming from bazaar ? I'm trying to add EditFile, but cannot add the Control4U package...

The only way I found is to make a link (I'm under linux) in the MyApp folder to the bazaar/Control4U folder. It's working, but not elegant...

Is there a better way ?

PS : Why is not the right way to do this described in the Bazaar User Guide ?

You probably don't have bazaar nest listed in your assembly.

Use "Set main package" and in the left pane with assemblies edit your current one, or add new one if you are worried about old projects having some conflicts with bazaar packages (unlikely, but not impossible).

In edit append path to bazaar dir to other nest's paths (first input).

Should work then (I'm not aware of other step needed).

PS. will try to improve the guide, you are right, it's missing there, but need some spare time. Smile

Thanks ! I can now add packages from bazaar Smile

But I've still a problem when I compile, as soon as I add EditFile control in the .lay file :

main.cpp
In file included from /home/joseph/upp/uppsrc/CtrlCore/lay.h:22,
                 from /home/joseph/upp/MyApps/testEditFile/testEditFile.h:9,

There were errors. (0:02.28)


Here are my files :
TestEditFile.h
#ifndef _testEditFile_testEditFile_h
#define _testEditFile_testEditFile_h

#include <CtrlLib/CtrlLib.h>

using namespace Upp;

#define LAYOUTFILE <testEditFile/testEditFile.lay>
#include <CtrlCore/lay.h>



class testEditFile : public WithtestEditFileLayout<TopWindow> {
public:
	typedef testEditFile CLASSNAME;
	testEditFile();
};

#endif

main.cpp
#include "testEditFile.h"



testEditFile::testEditFile()
{
	CtrlLayout(*this, "Window title");
}

GUI_APP_MAIN
{
	testEditFile().Run();
}

testEdifFile.lay
LAYOUT(testEditFileLayout, 332, 344)
	ITEM(EditFile, edfFile1, LeftPosZ(12, 296).TopPosZ(12, 19))
END_LAYOUT

Yes, time is always a problem !

Hi,

You're missing #include <Controls4U/Controls4U.h> in TestEditFile.h
//...
#include <CtrlLib/CtrlLib.h>
#include <Controls4U/Controls4U.h>
using namespace Upp;


If you use some widget in *.lay files then you'll have to get it into the scope (include it's file) before *.lay include.
// I.e.:
#include <SomeHeader>

// SomeWidget will be used in .lay file
#define LAYOUTFILE <testEditFile/testEditFile.lay>
#include <CtrlCore/lay.h>

Hi,

Sorry and thank you, andreincx. I didn't see your post...

Yes, it's important to have the right includes at the right place. Especially, the include of Controls4U must be before the namespace line.

All works fine now. Thanks to everybody who helped, and to koldo for those nice controls Smile

Hello Beji

Welcome back!

AFAIK, Controls4U.h include can be before or after namespace. In fact, in Controls4U_demo, it is after namespace.

As Andrei says, it is necessary to put it before this:

#define LAYOUTFILE <testEditFile/testEditFile.lay>
#include <CtrlCore/lay.h>

, because testEditFile.lay uses classes declared in CtrlLib.h and Controls4U.h.

Best regards
Iñaki

Hi koldo,

Yes, you're right : including Controls4U.h after namespace works well. I made so many tries that probably I made something wrong when I tested after the namespace Embarassed
