Has someone been able to build a FWH 64 and Harbour 64 app using Visual Studio 2013 ?
It seems as the dektop is no longer supported (I may be wrong, hopefully...)
With Visual Studio 2012 it works fine as expected

Antonio, I am successfully using Visual Studio Express 2013 and Visual Studio 2013 Professional to build 64 bit harbour itself, as well as 64 bit FWH apps using the two library files you provide with FWH64.
I think that was your question.
Robb
Robb,
yesterday I published a makefile for FWH 64 using multiple PRGs and Visual Studio 2012:
Would you mind to point what changes in that makefile (also please review go.bat settings) would be needed to use Visual Studio 2013 Express ?
many thanks!
&
I will, but it won't be until very late tonight.
I did just find one issue with a 64 bit FWH app, drag and drop doesn't seem to work. A 32 bit app works, but the same code compiled for 64 bit always passes an empty array as the third parameter.
Robb
Robb,
Please take your time, thanks
Do you have the Visual Themes working on 64 bits ? I mean the 1 24 "WindowsXP64.manifest"
Regarding the bug, could you please point me to an existing FWH example for it, or an example of your own ? many thanks
I use a manifest, but not with the XP manifest you've shown. I'll test with that later tonight. One thing that may be worth your while is use the Microsoft sxstrace utility to verify the manifest. I had one particular manifest I've used for a long time, but was having trouble recently with Windows 8.1, and found a number of errors with sxstrace. Nothing difficult to fix, but I didn't even know there were any errors until I used sxstrace, just unexpected behavior.
Regarding drag and drop:
c:\fwh\samples\testdrop.prg shows the drag and drop problem. Works fine for 32 bit, fails as below for 64 bit. In my app where I found this I saw that in 64 bit the aFiles array is always empty.
Also, The log below shows I am using FiveWin Version: FWH 13.12, but that is not the case, I am using 14.04. Not sure why this is reporting erroneously, but it is incorrect.

Robb,
Thanks for pointing Microsoft SxsTrace. I wasn't aware of this utility. I have tried to use it this way:
sxstrace.exe Trace -logfile:MySxSTrace.log
my.exe
sxstrace.exe Parse -logfile:MySxSTrace.log -outfile:MySxSTrace.txt
but MySysTrace.txt is empty.
Could you please explain us how to use it ? many thanks
Robb,
We don't get any errors with Testdrop.prg and if I generate an error it reports FWH 14.04
I am emailing you the same libraries that I am using, thanks
Thanks to Robb we have been able to implement the right makefile for Visual Studio 2013

Robb,
Regarding the drag & drop problem, it seems as Vista/Windows 7 64 bits have blocked it (just for 64 bits apps, no idea why it is allowed on 32 bits apps):
http://helgeklein.com/blog/2010/03/how-to-enable-drag-and-drop-for-an-elevated-mfc-application-on-vistawindows-7/
So, following that post I have modified FWH DragAcceptFiles() this way:
but it is not working on Windows 8 64 bits. I am going to google now for a solution for Windows 8 64.
Please notice that there were two places in dropfile.c where hb_parnll() was required. Even with this change, keeps failing on 64 bits, possible for the above explained limitation.

#else

This does not (yet) work for Windows 8. Does anyone have a solution for this ?
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8239271/uac-elevation-does-not-allow-drag-and-drop
The solution as provided by Helge Klein did work excellent for Windows 7. However, it does not work for Windows 8 (helgeklein.com/blog/2010/03/…). Anyone has got a suggestion how to deal with this new issue? – user1988169 Jan 17 '13 at 18:41
It seems that is possible to bypass that drag & drop limitation on Windows 8 but it requires some Windows settings:

Robb,
Are you working on administrator mode ? Drag & drop does not work on administrator mode on Windows 8 64 bits.
But it works fine for regular users
Problem solved
Antonio,
can you compile the very same sample PRG using BCC 581 and VS2013 and send me the two EXEs to test them here?
Thank you in advance.
EMG
Enrico,
Already sent to your email, but I built both in 32 bits.
Please let me know if you want 64 bits versions too
