 Introduction
SysIP is the
6th in our series of wrapper
classes around the "common
controls" of the win32 api system. This time we
wrapped around the IP address control.
An IP
address control (introduced by
Microsoft with Internet Explorer 4.0) allows
the user to enter an IP address in an easily
understood format. This control also allows
the application to obtain the address in
numeric form rather than in text form (which
is what
you would have to do with pure Clarion).
You may be familiar with this kind of
control from the network control panel or
other screens if you're using the TCP/IP
control. If you'd like to easily implement
such a control in a Clarion application,
then SysIP is what you need. SysIP offers
field-to-field navigation by pressing ctrl +
left/right and filling the sub address
sections with leading 0s just as your users
are used to doin. In addition to formatting
and field navigation you have the ability to
limit fields to certain addresses or address
ranges.
As with all our products SysIP allows you to
use IP address controls inside your
application without writing a single line of
code.
Try the demo program to
see how easy it is to use and how
comprehensive the interface is.
