SpiderForms: A visual Form Designer for Spider\Pure Basic

Post by Sharbaf »

Hello All,
First, pardon me for posting something that is not related directly to Pure Basic, but I'll talk about the reasons in following lines.

Here's "Spider Forms" , a visual form editor for Spider Basic which you might be familiar with. It allows the user to design the form, drop the gadgets around and adjust their properties. Then it generates SB code which you may run and test immediately or save to disk.

http://www.shahramsharbaf.ir/sf/

Please note that this beta version is in early stages of development. The reason I'm sharing it with you is to check If it really could be useful at all, so then I may put more time and energy behind it. Currently it supports 10 Gadgets [mostly GUI related ones] and plans are to add multi form support [which in fact is already implemented but still too buggy ,so disabled] , An action creator to generate events code, custom Gadgets and more.

The reasons I'm posting something about spider basic here in pure basic forums are:
1) for some unknown reason i can't register in their forum and activation emails don't arrive. I had no other place to find potential users to try Spider Forms.

2) I read that Spider Basic and Pure Basic syntax and language formats are so similar and the same code can be used between them. So i thought you guys might be interested to try my effort. I want Spider Forms to support Pure Basic too. It's already planned.

Sorry for long rant. There's a discussion board in link above. I would like to hear your feedback and suggestion over there, in order to keep the privacy of pure basic forums. Mercy!

Regards,
Shahram

PS. There was a problem with Installer which is fixed now. It installed the program but didn't show it in Start Menu\Spider Forms.
Now it's fine.

It looks good, but I don't have SpiderBasic. Keep it going, though, because I'd like to test the PureBasic side of it one day.

Thank you Barry for your feedback.
You may already know you can download the demo version of Spider Basic from their website. Such a powerful tool to create web application with Basic. a dream came true..

Hopefully will come up with next beta version with Pure Basic capabilities soon.

I don't think anyone would start an installer of an user registered a few hours ago!

If you want testers, you should provide just the needed files and no installer!

i'm guessing everyone knows his "installer" is a VB6.0 installer ??

Form Designer is created with VisualBasic 6.0

so just extract or copy out the .EXE out of the .CAB file to Run it ,
that way you do not need to install it 8)
