Yes ... but it does not help me when start with harbour.

i need full syntax include Type of Parameter to be sure that i can use that function ... and if possible Demo Sample.

Xbase++ often use "own Name" so if i ask for Bin2Var() / Var2Bin() i have attach a Array Sample.
i guess that was the Bridge to HB_Serialize() / HB_DeSerialize() what i never have found without your help.

i found out that c:\hmg.3.4.4\HARBOUR\include\harbour.hbx contain what i search for 1st Step.

when search e.g. for "Thread" i got

Code: Select all

DYNAMIC hb_threadDetach
DYNAMIC hb_threadID
DYNAMIC hb_threadJoin
DYNAMIC hb_threadOnce
DYNAMIC hb_threadOnceInit
DYNAMIC hb_threadQuitRequest
DYNAMIC hb_threadSelf
DYNAMIC hb_threadStart
DYNAMIC hb_threadTerminateAll
DYNAMIC hb_threadWait
DYNAMIC hb_threadWaitForAll 

when have a "keyword" i can begin to search how Syntax look like.

Harbour/HMG are Open Source projects, so you can't ask for anything you are not willing to do yourself.
It's made by people who donated for free their own time.
If you find lack of documentation of course you are invited to do it ...
... or do what we all do: deduct documentation from source code.

hi,

sorry i don't want to blame anyone.

it is hard for a Newbie to find Information if i do not know the "keyword" to search so i ask in Forum.
as i most work Offline i need to download Help file.
