IDE for HMG [Programming Without Coding Technology (PWCT)]
Hi All
At first i am very happy for discovering this nice forum
This is my first post here, i hope it will be useful
Just i have new IDE for HMG
This IDE called [Programming Without Coding Technology (PWCT)]
The Programming Without Coding Technology (PWCT) is a visual programming system enable the developer to develop win32 application 100% without coding at all.
PWCT is based on Harbour/xHarbour & HarbourMiniGUI Extended.
It's (Free & Open source) project hosted on sourceforge
URL : http://doublesvsoop.sourceforge.net
(Online Documentation + Download Link)
PWCT Group on Yahoo
http://www.yahoogroups.com/group/doublesvsoop
Hello World program (article on codeproject)
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/winsdk/Pr ... oding.aspx
I hope that you will like PWCT, and find it useful, also i like to hear from you about your Opinion, ideas & suggessions.
Greetings,
Mahmoud

Hola, he descargado la version que mencionaste, pero al momento de instalarla trata de instalar la version en italiano y se puede realizar la instalación.
Hi, I downloaded the version that mentioned, but when you install tries to install the version in Italian and can perform the installation

Hi Mahmoud Fayed
Hearty welcome to HMG Forum. Let me first try your IDE

East or West HMG is the Best.
South or North HMG is worth.
...the possibilities are endless.

At first i am very happy to meet you
I remember that this forum is for HMG utilities
And when i wrote
'PWCT is based on Harbour/xHarbour & HarbourMiniGUI Extended.'
Just i was mean that PWCT support Harbour and xHarbour too.

I'm still not sure about what exactly your IDE can do and in which way it interacts or are related to MiniGUI library or [x]Harbour, and if it works with MiniGUI extended only (sorry, you answer was not clear enough to me (my English is not good)).
Could be so kind to try to explain to us in few, simple words about your utility.
Thanks in advance.

Re: IDE for HMG [Programming Without Coding Technology (PWCT)]
Hi Roberto
Thanks for interesting in PWCT IDE for HMG
1 - The basic idea
Replace the original programming concepts and tools
That are based on *writing code* with new concepts and tools
That are based on interaction with GUI instead of writing code
Somthing like the transition from
DOS (Command Line) ------------> Windows (GUI)
but here from
Coding (Text based) ------------> Programming Without Coding (Visual)
Simple Example:
The hello world program in xBase
* Main.PRG
? "Hello World"
In programming Without Coding
Instead of having a source code file (Main.PRG)
We have a (Goal)
Instead of having a code Editor
We have a (Goal Designer)
Code Editor -----------> Goal Designer
Source Code File (FileName.PRG) ----------> Goal
Each Goal is a group of steps
Block of code (lines of code) ------------> Step
while in coding, you are writing the code
in programming without coding, steps are generated automatically for you
And you are free to alter/change the step name,
And you can create new steps manually if you
Steps (Used to hide block of code)
|__ [1] Generated Steps (Automatically created after interaction process)
|__ [2] Created Steps (You create it yourself)
How steps are generated for us?
Somthing like *Code Generation*
Simply, you have a group of components , arranged in different domains
first you select the domain : (Print Text) for example
Then select the component : (Print Text to console) for example
Then enter the required data : "Hello World"
After this interaction process you will have a steps tree like this
The Start Point
|___ Print Text ("Hello World") to console
Each step have a block of code hidden iside it
This code is based on HarbourMiniGUI Extended
You can see the code, you can change the code, but you don't need to do
Because the GUI enable you to do anything away from the code
2 - The Architecture
Two layers
[ Programming Without Coding Layer ]
Include everything you need to customize the environment
And to do programming without coding
[ Programming With Coding Layer ( HarbourMiniGUI Extended) ]
Include everything you need to compile and build the application
3 - Top Three Features
* Goal Designer can be considered the next generation after the most modern
code editor
* Very Modern Form Designer
* Interaction Designer & Transporter Designer to add new components to the
Environment
4 - Quick Start (Getting Started)
* Hello World - Console application without coding
http://doublesvsoop.sourceforge.net/d3.htm
* The For loop - Example on control structure
http://doublesvsoop.sourceforge.net/d17.htm
* GUI Application
http://doublesvsoop.sourceforge.net/d26.htm
* Controls
http://doublesvsoop.sourceforge.net/d27.htm
* Form Designer
http://doublesvsoop.sourceforge.net/d28.htm
* Working Faster than coding
http://doublesvsoop.sourceforge.net/d32.htm
* Looking at the code behind the scene
http://doublesvsoop.sourceforge.net/d33.htm
5 - Complete Reference
http://doublesvsoop.sourceforge.net/dmain.htm
And as always any comments,questions & ideas are welcome

Yes... I've was interested... I've downloaded it some time ago and attempted to do something (without read any docs ) and I've failed.Mahmoud Fayed wrote:Hi Roberto

So, is evident that the use of your tool require certain 'preparation' from the user to make it work.
In my humble opinion, the goal of create applications without coding is good, but, if the user is required to learn lots of new concepts that are not natural or common sense ones, the tool will be not useful.
The user should be 'driven' by the utility to help to express its ideas in a natural way. IMHO your tool does not do such thing.
Moreover, the item '2' of your response states:
"[ Programming With Coding Layer ( HarbourMiniGUI Extended) ]"
So, only for forum users clarification... the "IDE for HMG" in your original message is not correct.
The users must be noticed about that.

Roberto.

En el mensaje anterior me di cuenta que omití la negación.
Quise decir que no se puede instalar
saludos
In the previous message I realized that I omitted the denial.
I meant that can not be installed
