Hi,
Can I use a pointer to the application function in VFP?
I use bszip.dll to zip files. This .dll has a function zCompressFiles that has the following VBA syntax:
Declare Function zCompressFiles Lib "bszip.dll" _
(ByVal TempDir As String, _
ByVal Password As String, _
ByVal CompressionMethod As Long, _
ByVal ResetArchiveAttribute As Byte, _
ByVal SpanSize As Long, _
ByVal Comment As String, _
ByVal RTInfoFunc As Long) As LongDescription of the RTInfoFunc is as follows:
RTInfoFunc- pointer to the application function, which will be called periodically (after 1 sec) from
' the library to show runtime information, for example some kind of progress bar.
' Within this function, application can call zGetRunTimeInfo or zCancelOperation.
' If nil, no runtime information will be available.
' In VB5+, this may be called by using AddressOf in the call, in VB4 set to nil.
Can I use this in my VFP application to report on the progress of zip process?
