WinBinder Part 2 Adding code and files

On the previous page we finished with a bare windows application containing two buttons and indicators.

This page looks at adding functionality to these buttons. Code will be split across several include files. The sole purpose is to demonstrate capabilities of PHC-Win covered on the next page.

Individual files

Individual files are added to C:\us_wb\my_app\z_basic.phpw as shown below:

Include "../wb/php/include/winbinder.php";       // Location Of Winbinder Library

Include "button_1_toggle.inc.php";
Include "button_2_toggle.inc.php";
Include "red_1_on.inc.php";
Include "red_2_on.inc.php";
Include "green_1_on.inc.php";
Include "green_2_on.inc.php";

There are six in all, each containing a single function as follows:

button_1_toggle.inc.php

<?php
function button_1_toggle(){
 global $mainwin;

   $text = wb_get_text(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_BUTTONRED1));   // get button txt
   if($text == 'Red 1'){ 
     red_1_on();
     wb_set_text(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_BUTTONRED1),'Green 1'); // Change button text
   }
   if($text == 'Green 1'){ 
     green_1_on();
     wb_set_text(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_BUTTONRED1),'Red 1'); // Change button text
   }
}
?>


button_2_toggle.inc.php

<?php
function button_2_toggle(){
 global $mainwin;

   $text = wb_get_text(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_BUTTONRED2));   // get button txt
   if($text == 'Red 2'){ 
     red_2_on();
     wb_set_text(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_BUTTONRED2),'Green 2'); // Change button text
   }
   if($text == 'Green 2'){ 
     green_2_on();
     wb_set_text(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_BUTTONRED2),'Red 2'); // Change button text
   }
}
?>


red_1_on.inc.php

<?php
function red_1_on(){
 global $mainwin;
 wb_set_visible(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_FRAMERED1),TRUE);;   // red 1 on
 wb_set_visible(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_FRAMEGREEN1),FALSE); // green 1 off
}
?>


red_2_on.inc.php

<?php
function red_2_on(){
 global $mainwin;
 wb_set_visible(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_FRAMERED2),TRUE);;   // red 2 on
 wb_set_visible(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_FRAMEGREEN2),FALSE); // green 2 off
}
?>


green_1_on.inc.php

<?php
function green_1_on(){
 global $mainwin;
 wb_set_visible(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_FRAMERED1),FALSE);;   // red 1 off
 wb_set_visible(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_FRAMEGREEN1),TRUE); // green 1 on
}
?>


green_2_on.inc.php

<?php
function green_2_on(){
 global $mainwin;
 wb_set_visible(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_FRAMERED2),FALSE);;   // red 2 off
 wb_set_visible(wb_get_control($mainwin, IDC_FRAMEGREEN2),TRUE); // green 2 on
}
?>
  • Run C:\us_wb\my_app\z_basic.bat
  • Each button toggles between Red and Green.
  • Each indicator toggles between Red and Green.
