We are pleased to announce a new build of Harbour MiniGUI Extended
Edition.
It is a regularly scheduled maintenance and bugfix release.
A setup of the ANSI build 23.02 for Borland C++ 5.8.2 is published at
the following URL:
http://hmgextended.com/files/CONTRIB/hm ... -setup.exe
The add-on binary archive has also been updated.
There is an additional donationware Minigui package built for the freeware
Embarcadero C++ 10.2 ‘Tokyo’ 32-bit compiler (which is included in the above
package for your convenience).
Whatsnew:
2023/02/16: HMG Extended Edition version 23.02.
This release is considered stable and ready for production use.* Fixed: Minor issue in the GetFolder() function (bug was introduced
in the build 2.5.1).
Syntax:
GetFolder( [cTitle], [cInitPath], [nFlags], [lNewFolderButton],
[nFolderType] ) -> cFolderName
where default nFlags value is BIF_USENEWUI + BIF_VALIDATE.

* Modified: The second attempt to refactor the code was made using
Harbour contrib library HbWin to replace the internal
C-functions in the GetFile() and PutFile() functions:
- the function C_GETFILE() was replaced with the function
win_GetOpenFileName();
- the function C_PUTFILE() was replaced with the function
win_GetSaveFileName().
