foxypreviewier

[Bryan - Gendev]

I'm just getting back to my app that I developed over 10 years ago.
I have an embedded SET STOP ON in the foxypreviewer process that I can't locate to remove . Its annoying me. It's in
pr_reportlistener.vcx:reportlistener.init

I can't find this vcx using WiZfile anywhere on my system - can anyone help me to find it?

Thanks

Am I wrong, you already know where it is by file name but don't find the file?

Do you see this hardcoded breakpoint while you do a test run in the IDE? Is it in the app compiled from sources?

You actually don't need to care for this, as compiled to an EXE any SET STEP ON will be ignored. In old VFP version you would get an error 1001, but not in VFP9.

If you see it while you debug, the debugger can tell you the currently executing file with SYS(16), so put that expression into the watch window.

If you find this is in the foxyprevierwer.app then open the project and look into the _reportlistener class of the pr_reportlistener.vcx class library and locate and delete the SET STEP ON, then rebuild the app from the project by building an APP.

Or do you only have the app as prebuild version without source code? Well, if that's a foxypreviewer version from 10 years ago I guess you won't get this old versions source code. On the other side I don't think the FP developers left a SET STEP ON in their source code, so I guess you have to locate the FoxyPreviewer download including the sources and find that SET STEP ON in there, which you likely have put into it.

Thanks Chriss'

AS you say I cannot locate the pr_reportlistener.vcx file which is indicated in the debugger when it gets to the SET STEP ON command.
I'm sure _I_ added the SET command 10 years ago but how? When WizFile cant find that vcx.

I think I understand why now - I obviously compiled foxypreview into an app all those years ago which I distributed with my executable and ather related files. Thus I understand without the source files I can't progress any further.

Leter
I've found a copy of the app on their home pages and replaced my copy of the app in my working folder - that has solved my problem - thanks to all who responded.
