Thorium , Dude :

Unfortunately I can't agree that there is no sense to protect your application. Indeed it would be quite costly but still you could get result
out of this procedure. As for comment regarding providing incorrect results if cracked - well, that probably depends on the area where ...

Dude :

I never said that it would make ones application totally unbreakable. I said that protection level it provide is way above average.
Also I've mention that it's a good idea to combine different protection methods. Code Virtualizer provide powerful code obfuscation
system, Themida technology ...

Just to add my 5¢ to the subject. I've done quite substantial checking on available software protection
systems available on the market for Windows platform (and as well considering multiplatform solutions)
and the most reasonable choice (for me) was WinLicense + CodeVirtualizer (from Oreans ...

New 3.19 version of IUP libraries now available for download from project web site:

http://iup.sourceforge.net/

Quite important note: a number of controls, headers and functions that were depreciated
removed in this version !

I would try to update PureBasic definitions to reflect these changes ...

I've compiled IUP, IM and CD toolkit libraries on Linux 32/64 patform and recompiled
demo IUP samples that previously were built using these toolkits and PureBasic on
Windows 64 bit OS. Of cause there were quite simple basic aplications - but, to my
surprise they were compiled almost without any ...

I've posted few additional notes in a separate forum section: http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtop ... 30#p490330

It seems that IupSetStrAttribute function could be used instead of IupSetAttribute for UNICODE (UTF-8) strings.

To be able to use UNICODE (UTF-8) string with IUP toolkit, one must set following Global values
just after toolkit initialization with IupOpen() function:

IupSetGlobal("UTF8MODE","YES")

Also, as suggested by hallodri , following additional setting could be set:

IupSetGlobal("UTF8AUTOCONVERT ...

hallodri :

Thank you again ! Your solution works and solves issue that i mentioned.
I still do not understand why IupSetAttribute function works for IupVBox / IupCBox
container types and the same function just does not work for IupFileDlg

BTW - I've contacted developers of IUP toolkit and ...

Playing around with IUP library I could confirm that in most cases to get UTF-8 strings working one would have to set

IupSetGlobal("UTF8MODE",YES")

just after primary IUP toolkit initialization function:

IupOpen()

But... I was unable to get UTF8 strings working for example with IupFileDlg ...

hallodri :

A bit strange... If I use IupSetAttribute function to set TITLE value before calling IupShowXY - then it's not working correctly...
But if I do exactly the same, but after calling IupShowXY - it worked with both ASCII and UNICODE strings ! :D

I also tried to use IupSetAttributes ...

hallodri :

Thanks for suggestion. Unfortunately, in my case it's not working for main application window title. For non-unicode case (using older bindings that you suggested) I could set window title - but only in ASCII and as well only if I compile application in non-unicode mode. :?

P.S. I've ...

IUP is a multi-platform toolkit for building graphical user interfaces. It offers a simple API in three basic languages: C, Lua and LED. IUP's purpose is to allow a program source code to be compiled in different systems without any modification. Its main advantages are:

- high performance, due to ...

hallodri :

I am using examples that you actually provided with small changes:

iuplib_demo.pb:
PrototypeC Icallback(*ih.Integer)

ImportC "iup.lib"
IupOpen()
IupMainLoop()
IupClose()
IupButton(title.p-utf8, action.p-utf8)
IupCbox(*handle, a=0, b=0, c=0) ;(...)
IupSetAttribute(*handle, name ...

HanPBH :

I was able to use UNICODE strings for some of IUP controls by setting global variable "UTF8MODE" to "YES" and as well
adjusting definitions of functions that I am calling from .dll shared libraries (right now only tests were done on Windows platform
but I plan to test on Linux as well ...

I've done some additional tests with IUP libraries over the weekend - overall I like solutions that they propose,
but got following "new" issue (that was probably already mentioned):

If I use pb solution made for 3.7 version of IUP libs with modern version of 3.18 IUP libs - all samples works fine ...
