Visual Cafe Compatibility [message #18198]

Does anyone know if it is possible to have VE work with screens that have
been created with Visual Cafe? Visual Cafe uses the constructor of a Window
as its initialization method. I noticed that in the Preference panel of VE,
it is possible to specify additional initialization methods (jbInit,
initComponents, ect..) but I don't see a way of adding a constructor to this
list.

Also, assuming that it isn't possible with the current release of VE. I am
curious if anyone could give me a hint as to how difficult would it be to
modify the VE plugin to add this extra functionality.

Thanks in advance,
Keith Degrace

Hi!

I'm translating source code from VisualCafe to VE.
Look the threads in this newsgroup and in the bugs section about VE and
you'll find information about this theme.

Good Luck!

Thanks for the reply,

I have looked through the threads of this newsgroup before posting my
message and have not found the answer I am looking for. There is one
important thing that I forgot to mention in my initial message. I am not
looking for a way to translate the visual cafe code. I need for VE to be
able to read Visual Cafe generated screens (without having to modify the
screen code).

Hi!

It's possible that doesn't appear the 'VisualCafe' word in the threads and
in the 'bugs section', but if you look the threads where my name appears
you found the responses of this fantastic people about the conversion from
VisualCafe to VE.

Good luck!
