Just a couple of changes:
|
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Steve, In downloading the Type Viewer, I see that the KixScripts editor program is being transefered to ITripoli. Is that going to effect my registration in any way or any other support issues? Wilbur |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Absolutely not. Everything is going to continue to work the same as always. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
stevie... what about adding a copy stuff there. like, ability to copy the description fields of some dll... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I like TypeLib viewer ... thanks for all the hard work Stevie. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
found some new com stuff with it... I like it. still, the copy to clipboard would be nice and would save lot of time. also, you have string like "get property this as string" or similar even though it may be read/write... am I wrong? if true, could it be stated as "get or set" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Regarding the copy, do you mean being able to copy the description and generic information in the top pane or copying the member usage information? Either way I can add a context menu to copy that info. Shouldn't be a problem. quote:Can you point me to an object that shows that? IIRC, the words get/let/set are not used in property descriptions. But if you can show me where that comes up for you I'll know for sure. Thanks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Got me to thinking (always a dangerous thing) wonder if it would be cool/neat/usefull to build in a feature that "converts" the COM syntax into KiXtart syntax - so you could just copy & paste it out of the viewer right into your script, maybe assign some generic term for the $object and $variable - maybe have place-holders for the parms ... just thinking ... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I went ahead and did the context menus before I saw your post, Shawn. If I'm on the right track let me know and I can add another option for copying kix formatted data. You can get it at the link on the top of this thread. BTW--I noticed that Jooel has you calling me Stevie as well. My grandmother used to call me Stevie. I've updated my signature accordingly. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
eh... I see nothing changed in signature but your displayname has changed {edit} k, now it's correct [ 21. May 2003, 20:33: Message edited by: Lonkero ] |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Jooel, is this what you had in mind regarding the copy/paste functionality? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Stevie, There you go messing up MCA's data collection. {tsk}{tsk} It irks him so when ppl change their handle. Oh well... maybe he will change to index on member number. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
think he already has something similar coded. anyway, my our udf-collector does not use that way so will need to do something with that... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
stevie, yes! this is handy when discussing with others. I wonder though... there is in "COM MakeCab 1.0 Type Library" another info shown if you browse for it. if you open the dll it shows different data. and AFAIK, there is also ...dll\7 how is that? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I don't see any UPDATE on this site. http://www.itripoli.com/typelib.htm I see: [Download v1.2] updated 12/26/02 If it was updated, the website should indicate 1.3 or what ever the new version is shouldn't it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
The site has been updated to reflect the new version info. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Les, you should blame Jooel for the name change. He set the wheels in motion. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I didn't see reason for update on the page as it was just a minor upgrade to 1.2.1 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Thanks for the update. Minor or not... 1.2 is NOT the same as 1.2.1 and one does not know that unless they know about this thread. [ 21. May 2003, 23:50: Message edited by: NTDOC ] |

|
|
|||||||
doh, the link does not need to say the version at all. just that via it you can get the latest and greatest. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Lonkero, if you open 'ComExp 1.0 Type Library' instead of the 'COM MakeCab 1.0' library you'll see that it shows the same information that you get from the VB reference of the same file. In fact, for some reason, the typelib viewer has an extra interface listed (in both type libraries) that you don't get from the VB Object Browser. I think the extra interfaces are because I'm searching for both IDispatch and IUnknown interfaces, and the VB Browser is only providing information for IDispatch since all COM calls in VB must derive from IDispatch. The reason that you get a ...dll\7 (I get a 6 instead of 7) is that there are multiple type libraries registered by the same dll and that's how they're differentiated in HKCU. Hopefully, that was clear enough. I understand it less now than when I started typing... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I get the 6 with typelib-viewer. with some other app was able to view \7 so was thinking, could it be possible to open dll with all of them... kinda select thing... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Each type library is registered as a separate entity even if they're in the same .dll The only way I'd know how to do it is to parse through HKCR hive and grab all registered dll names that have the same name as the open one and then do a lookup on the CLSID to find out what the type library is. Sounds like an awful mess to me. Plus, I'm not sure how really useful that would be for most people. Of course, there's probably a much simpler way to do it, but I certainly don't know what it would be. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
hey, stevie??? get page cannot be found on the link! what can I do, where I can get it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
k, got the file and packed it up. it's still avail from direct link I came up with: http://www.kixscripts.com/files/TypeLibViewer.exe |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
no, not the same. this one does not have the search |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
All our download links were down for a while today. Everything should be back up by now. If you have any issues getting it let me know. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
the above link does not work. and the link at your site to kixscripts.com download points to same itripoli.com file as the another link. that was actually my problem, I looked the file from kixscripts.com and it only had the old one and no links anywhere. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
It looks like the site is working again. Kent |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
well, I haven't yet seen any change. well, at some point the page context changed but I always got into the site. and that was not my complaint in the first place. and is not still. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Here is the link for the latest version (1.2.1): http://www.itripoli.com/downloads/typelibraryviewer/TypeLibVwr.exe |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
and where is it now? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
ok, I found it: http://dl.filekicker.com/send/file/143905-A4VX/TypeLibVwr.exe |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Well for others I guess it's best to first reach the main page so that they can easily see and find some of the other nice tools available there.
iTripoli Home Page http://www.itripoli.com/ Then for the iTripoli Type Library Viewer http://www.itripoli.com/itlv.asp Then current download link listed on the page as of this posting (1/21/2005) Latest Version: v1.2.1 (Released 5/21/03) http://dl.filekicker.com/send/file/143905-A4VX/TypeLibVwr.exe |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
the fact is that the mainpage is not linking to all these. the typelib is hidden in one of the subpages like it was never ment to be found. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
On the main page if you click on the PRODUCTS link it shows all the downloads including the Typeviewer. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
We never meant for it to be hard to find. As Ron points out, you can just go to: http://www.itripoli.com/products.asp which lists everything currently available, freeware and otherwise. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
ja, somehow the mainpage looks like a products page, so got confused each time went there. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
In light of the fact this is a scripting board, and because a discussion on kixforms reminded me of this, thought I would share some information on the typelib viewer installer switches. The following switches can be used for the setup:
Here is a list of exit codes that may be returned (if a restart is needed you can set your own code as indicated above):

thanks stevie. |
