PureBasic Forums - English

Thanks, but that is not helping me at all.
It would benefit this thread if the answer was posted right here.
Surely it cannot be more than a couple of lines, right?

Sorry to dig up this old thread but I am trying to implement the SCI_GETDIRECTFUNCTION in PureBasic but I cannot seem to get it to work.
Basically I need to translate the C-code from the manual to PureBasic:
#include "Scintilla.h"
SciFnDirect pSciMsg = (SciFnDirect)SendMessage(hSciWnd, SCI ...

Thanks for the answers. I think I'll go with LittleJohns Solution for now.
MK-softs solution doesn't really work and gives me the same problems as before.

I really think the modules need some more improvement for them to work like they should in theory.

Hi all,

I am trying to restructure my code into modules. But I am struggling with the "global" structures.

Let's consider the following code:


DeclareModule Mod1

Structure CommonStructure
Number.i
String.s
EndStructure

Declare Mod1_Function(*par.CommonStructure)

EndDeclareModule ...

If the project is closed, the order of the tabs also saved in the project file and restored if you open the project.

Nope, that doesn't work (on 5.31 x86). It always ressorts back to alphabetic order.

Sorry to dig up this thread but I recently discovered modules and started using them.

What is particulary handy is the UseModule command.
Because then you don't have to use the long names anymore.
Module::MyProcedure() becomes MyProcedure()

HOWEVER: when you do this the IDE doesn't recognize the ...

I must agree with Tenaja. This alphabet sorting is quite annoying.
It used to be possible to change the taborder afterwards in the XML .pbp projectfile. But whatever you do there gets overruled when you open the project. I now ressorted to adding numeral prefixes before the names (like 01, 02, 03 ...

RichAlgeni,

We all get days like that :wink:

After some more fiddling around with it I got it to work!

I told the portal builders to gradually build up the security level. First from HTTP, dan to SSL (HTTPS) and finally to SSL with server/client certificates.
We are now at step 2 and it works. I ...

Well sorry if you are offended about my posts, that was never my intention.

Of course I am willing to the work myself. But since I don't really understand all this SSL business I want to make sure if the code is reliable. Otherwise it will be difficult for me to determine if it doesn't work because ...

It's been working fine for me in a production setting for over a year.

Try it.
I did and it doesn't compile because obviously a pointer is not the same as an integer.

There are some more problems. The constants for the Cryptformats are not defined. From the manual:
cryptCreateEnvelope ...

RichAlgeni,

Thanks, I will have a look and see if I can make it work.

Question: how well tested is this piece of code?

For example I see this procedure:
Procedure.l sslRecvData(secureSession.l, *sslError, *returnData, *returnLength , bufferSize.l, socketTimeout.l, maxReadTrys.l, *netSource ...

What are you trying to achieve? is it just file transfers?

Yes, just file transfers back and forth (using GET and POST commands).

It is for a webbased portal which contains confidential documents. Our office server needs to communicate with the portal to retrieve documents and also has to give ...

I am not sure if SSH is the same as SSL (like I said new to this) but I am willing to give it a try.

@Bernd

I tried it but it doesn't work. There is no output. Remember I have to use a 2048 bit private key to connect so I don't think a simple username and password would work.

Hi Bernd,

Thanks for your reply. I was afraid this might not be an easy task :(

Alternative methods, like the one you are suggesting, are also welcome of course. I also tried something similair. Using RunProgram() to start the OpenSSL commandline tool because the command line tool itself ...

Hi all,

I am trying to create a SSL connection to a secured server. I am very new to both SSL and library calls so basically I don't really know what I am doing :-).

I searched the forums but there is not much about this topic so I thought maybe we could make this a work in progress thread, build ...
