C# - dotNet conversion [message #54794]

Just found this amazing project. I wish I had found it sooner LOL
I've written this application that helps me manage my invoices and purchases, but it's c#... using sqlite and a migradoc/pdfsharp.

I would Love to be able to port it over to U++, as I'm now running on a linux kernel full time and would like a native app.

I'm attaching a screen shot of my program, any help / pointers etc in getting started here would be appreciated (I haven't found a fitting multi-window example yet). The menu window is the main window, with child windows for each feature.

Thanks for the advice Smile

Jim

Hello jimlef,

And welcome to U++ forums.

Quote:

The menu window is the main window, with child windows for each feature.

I have attached a multiwindow (non-modal) GUI example which covers the basics for what you describe above (menu, child windows for each feature, general key handling).

Just open the zipped package and put it into your U++ working directory.

As to your project, unless you use some specific library, the conversion should be straightforward (possibly even simpler than the C# version. Smile

)

If you have any more questions let us know Smile

Best regards,
Oblivion

I have just begun recreating my application using Ultimate++... I have a ways to go, but I have the structure worked out I believe. I will include a screenshot here, and will gladly upload source when it is more complete.

Thank you again for the help Smile

Excellent

I advise you to begin doing a rather complete version of just a bit of your application to allow us give you better/faster/sooner feedback.
This way you will later simply include the new tested features to all the rest of your application.

Best regards

That is my plan actually, for example getting the sqlite access for my customer module and attaching that table to the array grid...
