Thanks to the advanced signing features of the new Apple XCode 8, now building Harbour apps for the iPhone and iPad is much much easier :-)

Code (fw): Select all Collapse
#include "FiveTouch.ch"

function Main()

   MsgInfo( "Hello world from Harbour iOS" )

return nil

These samples are pretty basic, but I would like to ask what you think will be the practical use of this ? Your example of an invoice program doesn't allow space for enough data to actually perform this type of work.

I'm just curious how people see a benefit using tablets and phones for business applications.

Tim,

I think it can be used by external sellers who visit customers to sell or for managers or by managers/directors to authorize payments.

Doctors here have PCs in every exam room and office. Way too much data to read on a phone or tablet. Invoicing on a phone is pretty hard if you have many parts. Just not enough space to input data efficiently. A tablet might be a little better, but only for a small number of parts. If a company has a large stock, say 5,000 plus parts, then it becomes impractical. I find most can't work on less than an 11" screen.

I've noticed the font size on the demo pictures is very large. Thus data is very limited.

Tim,

We can use any font size. I am using that one for the iPhone for easy reading :-)

Hi,

It is clear that a system of work is very difficult to fit it into a smartphone, I agree with you. But you can create small modules of work, to see such few data of consultation and the phone is perfect for it purpose.

It is another way and channel that can coexist with our applications, without any discussion.

Antonio,

I have a major system built on WIndows, with FWH / Harbor MSVC, and all data is installed in DBF files. The data is shared across a network via connected cables and Wi-Fi. This is a typical business setup.

So, here is my question. With this product, could I build a client for the iPhone or iPad that will work across a network to access, and record, data on the existing dbf files?

Tim

Tim,

First we should try first to mount the shared folder from the iOS device:
Code (fw): Select all Collapse
QProcess connectSamba;

QString mountPath = "//" + ip + "/folder/ " + mountpath;
QString terminalArgs = QString("-c \"mount -t cifs %1\"").arg(mountPath);
connectSamba.start("/bin/bash", terminalArgs);
connectSamba.waitForFinished();


http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27822854/mount-network-drives-with-qt

Theoretically it seems as it could be possible, but I have not tested it myself. Also I am aware of a problem with QProcess to be solved.
regards, saludos
