Help on 'Stubs' version 1.00 (c) ANN Technology 1996 ---------------------------- ----------------------- This utility program help a programmer to generate C++ classes as 'boilerplate' code (C++ code stubs). The program was really just an excersise using Acorns new Toolbox (Fantastic) and the C++ compiler (Pretty Good). Stubs will generate classes that have a public and private sections, a contructor and a destructor along with an include directive in the class source module for the header file containingthe class declaration. Also declared in the class is a default copy contructor and OPERATOR= methods. The program has a facility for creating the above code stubs in a standard TEMPLATE form. Stubs has been tried on RISC OS 3.11 and above. Using Stubs. ------------ Create a 'c++' and a 'h' directory your CSD (current selected directory). Stubs writes the code stubs in these two directories. THEN 1. Load Stubs the usual RISC OS way. 2. Click on the Stubs icon will open a dialogue box. 3. Fill in the relative writable icons. 4. Click on Construct to create the c++ code stubs. Writable icons. --------------- Class : This icon takes the name of the new class you wish to generate. Base (1,2,3): Stubs can generate a class which can inherate from 1 to 3 base classes. Fill in the icons with the names of the classes which you wish your class to inherate. Template : Clicking on Template will generate code stubs for you class as a template class. Author : Author of the module will be generated in each file. Date : Fill in the date of when the class was created. Construct : Clicking on this will construct the new code stubs. Terms, Disclaimer, etc. ----------------------- This software is FREEWARE. Copy it, distribute it, keep it complete. No liability is accepted for loss or damage caused by this software. (c) Paul Bradley, ANN Technology 1996.
