Tools & Custom Controls

Programming Tools

Install Creator - Install Creator is simply the easiest installation distribution tool in existence. No setup script, simply follow the wizard steps and create a full functional installation program, including an uninstall functionality.

Custom Controls

Although the standard and common Windows API controls are wrapped up in OCXs, GFA-BASIC32 cannot import third-party ActiveX controls like VB does. For additional controls we rely on 'the old fashioned' custom control DLLs. In particular the assembler programming community develops such controls. These custom controls are in no way less valueable then the VB ActiveX controls, they simply do not come in the same numbers as the VB controls. Here are a set of nice custom controls.

AniGIF - a simple and animated GIF's custom control.

RadAsm - Many custom controls including usage samples for using them in VB (thus GB32) and C/C++. (CodeComplete, ColorCtrl, CustTut, DrawProgress, FileBrowser, GradProgress, Header, HLink, MenuButton, RAProperty, RAGraph, RAVideo, SpreadSheet, WebBrowser, RAGrid, RAEdit, RAHexEdit)
