OT: I want to ask Sudip about migrating Clipper to Win

Post by jparada »

Hi Sudip (sorry personal message),

I need to do a migration Clipper to Windows GUI, really very fast, and I've seen a couple of times you've done some migration to gtwvg lib, and some of your comments, especially this:
Sudip wrote:If you want to transfer your old Clipper Apps to Win32, you may try GTWVT or GTWVG libraries with Harbour. These libraries need very small changes in your existing code. But, you can't have good Windows GUI with these libraries (GTWVG is a better one).

You say that with "small changes" are possible migration.

Sudip could you please be so kind to tell me what are the small changes I need to do in my clipper code to perform this migration.

I will really appreciate any help/advice.

Thanks

Best Regards
Javier

Hello Javier,

No, problem for personal message. Here we all in the same boat brother :)

Before telling anything, I want to say again - HMG is the best Harbour GUI library in my humble experience :)

Yes, gtwvg is a very good library (unfortunately very small user base). It was developed by Pritpal Bedi (now engaged with HBQt and HBIDE development). He is a very helpful person.

Can you please mail me in my personal mail at sudipb001@gmail.com regarding this subject.

I shall be very happy to share my small experience of gtwvg with you :)
With best regards,
Sudip

great friend Ciro Vargas has software that allows to migrate
clipper to gui applications with very few changes.
