- Hello World Sample 5
-
- DESCRIPTION:
- Version 5 greatly increases the
- functionality of the sample by adding a
- listbox and graphics window to the client
- area of the main frame window. The listbox
- is used to display a "Hello World" in
- different languages. A select handler is
- used to update the static text with
- whatever "Hello World" string is selected
- from the listbox. The graphics window uses
- IOC:UI graphics to display a view of
- the earth from space. The client area is
- layed-out using ISplitCanvas objects to
- allow the user to specify proportions for
- the sections.
-
- Hello5 also introduces the use of the
- IHelpWindow class for providing
- context-specific application help. The use
- of IPF formatted information source files,
- RTP formatted information source files,
- and resource file help tables is also
- demonstrated.
-
- CONCEPT/FEATURE:
- Sample program with frame window, menu bar from
- resource, information area, accelerator resources,
- dialog window, listbox, graphics, split-canvas,
- and help.
-
- HOW TO BUILD THE PROJECT FROM THE COMMAND LINE:
- For building the sample using RTF help,
- from within the directory containing the sample, simply type:
- NMAKE
-
- For building the sample using IPF help,
- from within the directory containing the sample, simply type:
- NMAKE USE_IPF=1
-
- HOW TO BUILD THE PROJECT FROM WITHIN THE WORKFRAME ENVIRONMENT:
- Refer to the standard Workframe BUILD instructions
-
- HOW TO RUN THE PROJECT FROM THE COMMAND LINE:
- From within the directory containing the sample, simply type
- the name of the executable:
- HELLO5
-
- HOW TO RUN THE PROJECT FROM WITHIN THE WORKFRAME ENVIRONMENT:
- Note: This sample uses IHelp and thus requires headers in the SDK.
-
- Refer to the standard Workframe RUN instructions
-
- SPECIAL NOTES:
- If the sample fails to execute or
- abnormally ends, you can get
- more information about the failure
- by turning on the ICLUI trace.
- This is done by setting the
- environment variable ICLUI_TRACE
- as follows:
-
- set ICLUI_TRACE=ON
- set ICLUI_TRACETO=STDERR
-
- ICLUI_TRACETO controls where
- the trace information is reported.
- With tracing turned on, ICLUI
- exception text will be written to a
- standard error file. For example:
-
- sample >sample.out 2>&1
-
- The exception data is now in the file
- 'sample.out'.
-
- ADDITIONAL HARDWARE/SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS:
- This sample refers to help identifiers and thus
- requires headers in the SDK.
-
- VISUALAGE FOR C++ SAMPLES INFORMATION:
- A complete listing of samples shipped with the VisualAge for C++
- product can be found in the online GUIDE TO SAMPLES. To access
- this notebook, simply:
-
- - Open the VISUALAGE FOR C++ program group in the Program
- Manager window, then
- - Open the GUIDE TO SAMPLES notebook in the program group.
