Setup and Configuration

jurjen — Sun, 17 Sep 2006 00:53:06 -0600

This page describes the steps to configure proed4w. Don't let the amount of text on this page scare you: it really is not much work to get started.

Locate or create a directory in your PROPATH where you like to install tools, for example:

c:\p4gl\tools            (existing directory, already in your PROPATH)
c:\p4gl\tools\proparse   (contains proparse.dll and sources)
c:\p4gl\tools\prolint    (contains prolint sources)
c:\p4gl\tools\proed4w

Unzip the contents of proed4w.zip in directory tools: this will create subdirectories tools\proed4w and tools\adecomm. If all is well then you
should be able to "run proed4w\proed4w.p" without modifying the PROPATH.

Parameters

Basic parameters:

To start Prolint for the source you are currently editing in ED, you would set up ED to invoke proed4w.exe with the following command-line:

   d:\progresstools\proed4w\proed4w.exe -c prolint -f "<NAME>"

(the location of proed4w.exe may be different on your PC)

-c

specifies the command to perform, in this case "prolint". Other values could be "syntax" or whatever we may come up with next.
-f

specifies the filename to perform the command on, in this case "<NAME>"

ED replaces <NAME> by the fully-qualified name of the current file.

Note: proed4w.exe does not actually cares about these parameters. It simply forwards them to proed4w.p, who does
parse the command-line and decides which tool to run based on the -c parameter.

Advanced parameters:

proed4w uses a TCP-connection on host 127.0.01, port 2525.

If you want a different portnumber you can specify so in file proed4w/port.i.

Documentation TODO: make sure to explain that this tool is not just for Prolint. The tool is also nice when you want to compile from within Ed4W and recieve the compiler warnings back in ED.

system requirements:

- Windows (any version)

- Progress version 9 (we use sockets and pub/sub)

- ED for Windows version 4

- if you want to use this tool for launching Prolint: you'll need Prolint release 26.

Purpose of Proed4w:

If you are using "ED for Windows" (version 4) and are editing .p or .w files, you can launch Prolint from within
ED for Windows to have it check the current sourcefile.
