Fully working: FV Dialog Designer

(1/3) > >>

CarlosVivaros:
Download the freeware Dialog Designer Version 4.6 from David Baldwin, in an innosetup installation script: https://www.artwerp.be/tvision/setup_fv_dialedit.exe
All files will be installed in c:\dialdesign

DLGDSN.exe is a DOS program, executed under VDOS (https://www.vdos.info/) to run under Win64: fv-dialogs.exe. 
Click on the Desktop shortcut to start the program in Win64 OS.

All functions are tested.  A simple FreeVision test framework is included: testcase.dpr.  Insert Type 1 output from the dialog editor between the marks and run your dialog test program...
A demo is also included: demo.dpr / Type 1: dialog definition diademo.src.  Compiled to Win32 with fpc to demo.exe

I have modified all the runtime files to be compatible with fpc.

I have succesfully compiled and tested to Win32, Win64, Linux32 and Linux64 in Delphi with CrossFPC (http://www.crossfpc.com).

Regards, Carlos Vivaros

avra:
It does not work for me on Win10x64. I can run demo.exe, but nothing else. Shortcut does not execute anything. Everything is in c:\dialdesign directory. After applying recommended compatibility settings to shortcut, I get vDos exception message: "vDos should not run elevated". If I just click on shortcut nothing happens. If I open shortcut as admin then I get the same message.

Why should I?
Show some screensnaps of what all this shall be.
What's the benefit of using (if it would work at all) over the Lazarus Form Designer?

Take care about malware  O:-)

MarkMLl:
I note that there's a couple of newly-joined members suddenly posting "interesting" links, so unless they introduce themselves (e.g. as longstanding members of the MLs) I think suspicion of malware is entirely valid.

I think the (claimed) intention is to have something similar to https://github.com/MarkMLl/Dialedit3b which I think has by now been copied and worked on by various people. This sort of thing is definitely valid, since it allows a Textual User Interface (TUI) to be designed for programs which don't merit (or systems which don't support) a full GUI.

My opinion is that Linux- and possibly FPC- would have benefited enormously from having something like this 15 or 20 years ago.
