The purpose of LifeCycle - Build Phase utility is to provide a central application to automated as much of the built process as possible without have to clone code, or replicate the procedure for different projects. It also provides the means to schedule automated builds for daily builds. The utility uses standard VFP class methods as the tasks in the build script. Allowing for greater flexibility and reusability.

General information
Description
During any development cycle there is point when a project needs to be built into executables. There are different kinds of builds that can take place; the standard build done by the developer to build a local copy of the executables, the Debug or Test Build for the Testers, the Production Build to be distributed to the customers, and possibly many more other types between these builds. The purpose of LifeCycle – Build Phase utility is to provide a single place where all these different types of building processes can be created, maintained, and executed. LifeCycle - Build Phase utility allows the developer and/or build manager to automate if not all, then most, of the tasks involved in building the pieces to run-time applications. The utility provides a list of all the projects in the overall project, and displays them in hierarchical listing based on dependency. But the main feature of the utility is the Build Styles. Each style is related to a list of Task steps, called the Build Script. The Scripts are performed during the build’s run process. Each of these tasks is a separate entity, which can be either added or removed from the build script at design-time. The build script tasks are creating as standard VFP Class Methods. No special PEM are required to identify the method as a build task, just a few extra comment line are required. The LifeCycle – Build Phase Light version has a few limitations over the registered Professional version. But these limitation can be removed when the user purchase the Authentication Code that transforms the Light version into the full feature Professional version.

This tiny control resizes controls on forms. Just drop this control on any form. Set the TAG properties of the controls you wish to resize to a combination of T,L,H,W. And place a Thisform.Refresh() statement in the form's Resize event. That is all there is to it. Now work properly in VFP 6.0.

This control is a simple treeview using the WebBrowser control and a HTML file to drive a VFP form. The tree itself is a standard html outline using the "UL"/"LI" tags. What make this the simplest, is that the only one OnClick event is established, and that is at the first (or root) "UL" tag.
