Hi talkers, I have a problem and dont say yeah your face ... I wish to develop GUI procs for MFG/PRO + EB2. However I wish to do this using the APPBuilder + UIB to create my .w
However when I do this ang hang the rcode on the system, it causes the system to just hang.
Any ideas?
Cheers
 
Prob

Hi thanks for this.
I am/wish to use the APPBuilder to develop. I need / would like to create a template for a blank window so I can start to develop to the needs. This template will have the parts that I am unsure of. I know I need to have refferences of some sort to mfg/declre.i amongst others though I do not know EXACTLY the required references. I wish to have these references in a template for a .w so I can begin developing using the APPBuilder for EB2/MFG PRO. Clarification?
 
Setting up a template is quite easy. I can explain how to do that. But you said that your session hangs. Does it hang when you run AppBuilder, or when you run your window from AppBuilder?
 
Cheers for this. When I try running a file I am in an internal loop that does nothing (visually) which cuses myself to ctrl+alt+del > task manager to end the task to regain control. Cheers.
 
This isn't really making much sense. If your application is permanently in a loop then of course it will stop responding. You could try adding a PROCESS EVENTS statement to the loop. This will allow UI events to be detected, but still, it seems to be a an odd thing to do and I still have little idea of what you're trying to do.
 
Clarification

I think I need to clarufy the problem for all. I know this is not standard practise to achive what I am after but I feel more comfortable in this approach. I am working with EB2, I wish to develop some bespoke routines and then hang then from the EB2 Menu. I know how to do that, menu option 36... though when I do this and select the program I just inserted to the menu I get the apperance of a never ending loop. I get an eggtime situation which freexes user input leaving task manager to end task seems the only acceptable exit. I do not wish this to occur, I wish to develop using the appbuilder and then hang my solution from the EB2 menu. Please help this is driving myself mad trying to sort it out.
Cheers,
Regards,
 
I think that this is a specific MGPPRO problem rather than a 4GL problem. I don't know anything about MFGPRO or EB2 so I can't help you with this. You could try adding some messages to your code to see whether it's your program or MFGPRO that causing the problem. Or try posting this on the MFGPRO list.
