VBXGEN 2 Shareware version -------------------------- Paul Pagett 27/1/95 VBXGEN is a source code generator, which will help in the process of writing VBX tools. VBX tools are the tools used in Microsoft Visual Basic, to build applications. To use VBXGEN you will require the professional version of Visual Basic (for the CDK) and a windows compiler which can compile VBX source code (MS Visual C++ recommended). Although OXC's will eventually replace VBX's we all know that this may be a long time coming, so why wait. Use VBXGEN to help you create Visual Basic tools TODAY, and jump on the 'component' bandwagon! This version of VBXGEN is a shareware version, which has the ability to create user definable events, taken out. If you register VBXGEN you will receive the full version which allows you to create user defined event procedures for your VBX. This is a very useful feature and we encourage you to register as soon as possible. You can register on compuserve in the SWREG forum (the shareware reg no. is 4791), or by registering direct with the author (see the about box in VBXGEN for details). To use VBXGEN first run Setup.exe on this disk to install it to your hard drive. After running VBXGEN you can read the help file for more details on how to use it. You basically need to set up a few details, define properties etc, then simply press a button and the VBX source code skeleton is created for you. You can then modify this (i.e. add you own code to the paint proc) and compile it to create your own VBX tool.
