To provide source for all windowed procedures (including the preview) RPM will now be generated as a LIB instead of a bunch of DLL's.
Some of the processing within RPM will remain a bit blackbox, but not much! Procedures that handle printing and housekeeping (but NO windows!) are spirited away in a separate LIB that is included in the developers part of RPM . . . a Clarion APP file!
All windowed procedures, and a few non-window procedures, are now included in an APP file.
This release of RPM will require that you import a TXD into your application dictionary, so the templates can generate the required file handling methods. You then add an extension to your global DLL, or single EXE, app that includes the single LIB, from the RPM Developers Application, and handles all the boring stuff.
No RPM DLL's to ship with your app!
True, you might consider this a bit more involved than before. But it really isn't that different and it's a lot less prone to misplaced, wrong version DLL's as in prior versions.
