if Custom Compo missed..

Post by Rudi »

Hi
..i hope the title is right named..

sorry for the simple question, but i can not test because i have install FC at one PC and all Custom Compo availabel.

If i make a Compo by my self and import this later in my project and give the *.fcfx file for testing a simple routine someone..
need he/she the Custom Compo too or is this in the *.fcfx File included and he/she can test same like i am?

btw:
which File(s) is recommed to give someone / post online for test for complete Testfunction?

okay why i ask:
I do not know, what is allowed and what not.
is legitim to give someone the *.fcfx file?

Thank you for the answere!
Best wishes
Rudi

Hi Rudi,

Components are not included in an fcfx file. If you distribute test programs you will have to provide the non standard components as well (standard are only those components provided in the Flowcode distribution). For components you can decide to provide the source or the exported component. When you provide the source people will be able to debug the component as well, but also change it. If you provide the exported component (fcpx file) it will be a black box for the people testing your code. If the component does not contain code you need to keep secret the best way (in my opinion) would be to supply both the component source (fcfx) and the exported component (fcpx) as it will provide the best debugging/testing options.

For code you create yourself you are allowed to post the source (fcfx) and the created component (fcpx), you can decide as you are the owner. For code you got from another source you need to observe the rights of the author, so if someone provides you with code and requests not to make it public you are not allowed to post that code. You are never allowed to post any copyright protected code provided to you.

Does this answer your questions?

PS. Some of your test programs in the Flowcode 6 forum use a display component you have created. I tried to compile one of them, but am unable to do so because I do not have your component.
