I've made further progress with the C++ parser engine. In fact, we even have some pretty pictures to show of it at work:

New documention for the Form Designer ready!

Mon, 10 Oct 2005 23:53:13 -0500

After far too long, the VCF Builder form designer is now able to create and manipulate forms, components, controls, and properties, and produce a file that is completely ready to be loaded up in your C++ projects.

New component authoring docs being worked on

Tue, 30 Aug 2005 16:09:25 -0500

I've got some new documentation coming in the next rev of the VCF's ref manual that covers creating component authoring, specifically writing property and component editors. You can see the current state of it here:

Forums information

Sat, 27 Aug 2005 09:37:11 -0500

I have noticed that recently (the past month or two) the forums have been a wee bit sleepy. I just wanted to inform people, assuming you don't already know this, that it possible to register to forums/topics such that when a new reply is made, the forum software will notfiy you by email. For myself, this is much easier than remembering to check the forums manually during the day (which I try and do as well).

For the VCF Forums please read the Help section about this.

For the VCF Builder Forums go to your account settings (under the "myaccount" link) and click on the "my notify settings" tab. Then click on the various enable (or disable) buttons as you see fit. This will allow to control how you get notified of new content to the site.

New Documentation

Wed, 17 Aug 2005 19:06:38 -0500

I've published some new documentation that explains how to build the VCF Builder with Visual Studio 2003 .Net, and some preliminary documentation about it. There are new screenshots as well!

You can view it here:

Building the VCF Builder

There are a bunch of new screen shots up in the "Screenshots" section for your perusal and enjoyment!

Web Hosting Move Complete!

Sat, 07 May 2005 10:06:19 -0500

Well our move to our new webhost, courtesy of the donation made by Ian Wallis, is now basically complete. The VCF Forums are now back up and running as well. The VCF Builder site is also up and running and ready for people to start particpating in the forums.

One difference people will notice immediately, is that the forum email notification is now finally working again, now that we have moved to a new host. I'd urge people to make sure they are subscribed to topics. Both the forums (the VCF's and the VCF Builder's) can be set up to notify a user of new posts/replys. The VCF Builder also has RSS feeds you can subscribe to. People interested in helping out with documentation of the VCF Builder should contact me (ddiego at users dot sourceforge dot net), and I can give you documention privileges.
