Deployment / Problems with OpenDCL Runtime ...
Last post by mlmichel - February 16, 2024, 09:30:51 AM
*SOLVED*

I will start at the beginning:

I was having the issue: _OPENDCL Unknown command "OPENDCL". So I read the forums and came to the conclusion I needed to install the OpenDCL Runtime because I did not see any .arx or .brx files in my OpenDCL Studio. directory

I installed OpenDCL Runtime and it still gives me: _OPENDCL Unknown command "OPENDCL".

I did some investigating into the OpenDCL Studio folder in my C: Directory and noticed that there aren't .arx files or .brx files. I have the original files from the OpenDCL installer.

Here is what I have tried:
1) add and remove programs > uninstall everything regarding OpenDCL > reinstall
2) restarting my computer after the uninstall > reinstall

Note: The OpenDCL Runtime installer seems to "crash" or not load fully when trying to install. It doesn't let me specify and install location. It doesn't bring up the window. I am suspecting that there are temporary files installed somewhere that can't be overwritten.

Also, the original folder specified for Open DCL in my C: drive cannot be written to, so I need to specify a different folder (desktop for example). Something to do with my IT department (one man show). Installing Runtime still does not seem to function correctly.

I am completely new to OpenDCL and lisp coding but am trying to harness the tools you have created to make my company more productive.

(if(=><= col-no 0 7)
   (dcl-combobox-setcursel ctrl-name (+ col-no 1) )
   (progn
      (dcl-ComboBox-AddColor  ctrl-name col-no)
      (dcl-combobox-setcursel ctrl-name 0)
   )
)

this works

the previuos it is wrong !

(defun DCL-COMBOBOX-COLOR-INIT ( ctrl-name col-no / col-pos )
(if(not (setq col-pos (dcl-ComboBox-FindColor ctrl-name col-no) ) )
(progn
(dcl-ComboBox-AddColor ctrl-name col-no )
(setq col-pos (dcl-ComboBox-FindColor ctrl-name col-no) )
)
)
(dcl-combobox-setcursel ctrl-name col-pos )
)

while this one seems to be good !

Just to make sure I understood correctly.
The current V24.2.01 corresponds to beta1 and OpenDCL does not work here.
Will a beta2 be released later with a fix to resolve the problem?

Thank you.

Runtime/AutoLISP / Compile question
Last post by dsm_dude - February 01, 2024, 11:05:43 AM
Is it possible to compile the odcl's so they cannot be tampered with?

If so, how do I go about doing so?
