Compiling Clipper Summer '87 with Harbour

[Wayne Theron]

I have a stock control and invoicing system written in Clipper '87. I compile using two batch files. The first batch file contains the following lines
Clipper @mainmenu
Clipper @stock
Clipper @branch
Clipper @debtors
Clipper @consign
Clipper @invoice
Clipper @utility

Then I execute the second batch file with a single parameter, namely "mainmenu", as in " b mainmenu". This batchfile has one line as follows
blinker @%1->

The clp files for each of the @<module> in the first batch file contains the name of the ".prg" file as follows
Mainmenu.clp:
mainmenu
procmgm
errorsys

stock.clp:
addstk
edstk
browstk
postings

Etc...

How do I compile these with hbkm2?

[Massimo Belgrano]

list all your source prg in yourproject.hbp and compile with hbmk2 yourproject..hbp

mainmenu.prg
procmgm.prg
errorsys.prg

addstk.prg
edstk.prg
browstk.prg
postings.prg

Thanks Massimo - I did'amt realise it was that simple.

I get 1 error on the following line

Left(variable,1,24).

Do I replace it with left(variable,1) or left(variable,24) ?

[José Quintas]

If I understand, you know how to use a bat, but not how to compile.

group all clp content in a single hbp file:

copy mainmenu.clp + stock.clp + branch.clp + debtors.clp + consign.clp +
invoice.clp + utility.clp app.hbp

Then compile using hbmk2

hbmk2 app.hbp -m

And see result for additional files.

Note:
Your email don't have script for blinker (mainmenu.lnk).

Note2:
CLP is a list of PRGs.
HBP is a list of PRGs, and can have additional parameters to compile/link

blinker executable clipper f41
OUTPUT mainmenu.exe

ALLOCATE toolkit, extend, super

Thanks. Will do. I have left work already and will let you know if it worked.

Ok.
No additional library.
Then need only hbp with PRG list, and can add -m in hbp.

For caution, change main module to MAIN.

PROCEDURE Main
