Well in seraching for other things I stumbled accross Several Languages that are not so familar to users of this forum and thought that I'd start up a little Post with these findings...
firstly BCX:
| CODE |
BCX DevSuite
Everything you need to develop software with BCX, all wrapped up into ONE single install file. The public asked for it and now RJP Computing has stepped up. RJP Computing has been using this in house for a few months and thought I should offer it to the general public. There are added bonuses too.
Features that require NO CONFIGURATION
BCX [The BASIC To C Translator]
LCC-Win32 (Base System)
LCC-Win32 Manual
ConTEXT Code Editor configured to launch upon double clicking *.bas and *.inc files.
ConTEXT Code Editor is configured to highlight both the Windows API and BCX keywords.
ConTEXT Code Editor is configured to compile all of your BCX programs right out of the box.
JFE is configured to highlight all known BCX keywords.
JFE is configured to compile all of your BCX programs right out of the box.
RJP Computing tweaked the LWALL.bat file. Now it compiles and links a *.res file automatically. The *.rc file must be in a 'res' directory under the *.bas file and it must have the same name as your main *.bas file.
ex. res\exampleprog.rc
Added EZGUI samples to the EZGUI directory under the GUI Samples.
Added the Win32 API help file to the 'bin' directory of the install.
! NEW ! Adds the correct paths to your PATH environmental variable. ! NEW !
ex. PATH = c:\Program Files\bcx\bin
Plus more to come......
Limitations
The code editors (JFE and ConTEXT) require that you install BCX and LCC-Win32 to the 'Program Files' Directory to work right out of the box. |
download & InformationSecondly
FiveWin for Harbour | CODE |
FiveWin for Harbour
FWH is a library for the new Harbour compiler which lets you create true 32 bit applications for Microsoft Windows (Win 95/98, Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP). FWH is almost 100% compatible with other FW versions (FW for CA-Clipper and FW++ for Alaska XBase++).
With FWH you get very small, self contained 32 bit EXEs for Windows without requiring any external DLLs.
FiveTech Software sincerelly believes that Harbour is the xBase of this new millenium: It is Open Source, Free, multi-platform, and self contained - No additional DLL's are required for Windows support. And it is already attracting the attention of most of the important third party manufacturers.
With FWH we include the latest binaries of Harbour itself, for both Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 and the free Borland C++ 5.5. compilers. We deliver two FWH libraries sets for both 'C' compilers.
With FWH and any of those 'C' compilers, you do not need anything else to create true 32 bit applications. Since you get Harbour, which is Open source code, and with any of those 'C' compilers you also get all the extra tools you need for development: the resource compiler and the linker. Your actual Resource Workshop for 16 bit works perfectly with FWH, or you may use Microsoft Visual Studio resource designer.
Do not be confused about the requirement of a C compiler. Harbour creates the same Pcode as Clipper does, but instead of creating an OBJ file, it creates a C file with the Pcode equivalent registers. This approach gives Harbour the benefit of being an authentic multi-platform compiler, since there is a C compiler available for any possible platform.
Harbour is almost completely finished, but there are some minor features not actually included. For this reason FiveTech Software will upgrade the Harbour and FWH software for all FWH registered users on a regular basis.
Harbour already provides native NTX and CDX drivers. It also includes a specific library to access the free Advantage local driver or a remote access (Client/Server) with NTX and CDX support that you can use in your applications if you want to.

download & InfoThese are a cople of the Languages that I have found and have found to be of interest...
Perhaps they might be of Interest to others also...
Wkd...
