Re: multi-user SQlite (cubeSQL) with security/performance

It's not embeddable - AFAIK it's meant to run as a service or background process.

multi-user SQlite (cubeSQL) with security/performance

I had an interest to maintain a small, secure database to be shared amongst a small user base. I came across cubeSQL which seems to be promising. Some main points about it (paraphrased from the web site):

- SQlite-based + multi-user
- support for encrypted db + encrypted client/server channel ...

Re: Check whether a given file is open or closed

I think this is another (similar) solution

if you add a filesize() call you can determine existence also.

I wonder if this AES encryption code is threaded these days? BTW thanks for this great code example, netmaestro.

Re: How to use the FreeImage DLL?

I found the solution here under the section "How do I convert a HBITMAP to a FreeImage image ?"

This code needs to be inserted after StopDrawing()


If comp

bm.BITMAP
GetObject_(ImageID(comp), SizeOf(BITMAP), @bm)

dib = FreeImage_Allocate(bm\bmWidth, bm\bmHeight, bm\bmBitsPixel)

Re: How to use the FreeImage DLL?

I need to write a JPEG using 4:2:2 subsampling (the PB JPEG lib seems to write at 4:4:4 all the time) so I'm come to the FreeImage lib to help me write out an JPEG image created in PB using CreateImage etc (e.g. see below). However the pointer to the image provided by PB seems to be not compatible ...

Re: Morfik - create web sites in BASIC (and it's free!)

I downloaded & tried this tool. I tried a very basic tutorial. I found the IDE is a bit buggy & inconsistent. What turned me off was - at a certain stage of the tute, I could not get it to build anymore. It was comical - I pressed the build button, but nothing would happen. For a v3 product, I was ...
