Usage Instructions for FoxyPreview 3

[Bryan - Gendev]

I have added FoxyPreviewer to my app and am well pleased with the results on my development PC.

Now when I try it in a compiled executable of my app I get error messages. Before I try to decipher these am wondering if there is a howto type doco.

I have looked at the web pages , FAQs etc but can't get a clear indication of what is required in addition to the FoxyPreviewer.app file placed in a R/W folder. The sample distributable app in the D/L info doesn't seem to have anything additional.

Thanks for any clues.

Here are the first 2 lines from cover.log which wrote again this morning

0.000106,,main,25,c:\program files (x86)\beesoft\pathwizv92\pathwizv92.exe,1
0.000056,,main,26,c:\program files (x86)\beesoft\pathwizv92\pathwizv92.exe,1

in main.prg I have

line 25 _Screen.Visible=.F.
line 26 _Screen.Themes = .F.

there are only comment lines from 1 - 25

Does this give a clue?

Hooray - I have the solution - BLUSH

I have been distibuting my app for some 8 years now and forget exactly what was done in the early days - I find that I distribute a config.fpw with my app - and there was the set coverage to cover.log

Sorry to have wasted your time.

OK, no reason to blush. But then you see there is a good reason to put everything into a project, even excluded from compilation, to search it. Another reason you didn't find "SET COVERAGE" could have been you had SET<tab>COVERAGE in your code or SET COVERAGE with two or more spaces, for formatting reasons. I always search small substring that may find more places than I'm interested in, but surely not too less.

Just tested: If you include a config.fpw in the project, search the whole project and set the file filter to all files, then also the COVERAGE in fpw is found.

Bye, Olaf.
