Version 2.1 of ProPath includes the following enhancements:

 

Automatic exclusion of ADO, SQL and ODBC file types

 

This version expands the base capabilities of the template by letting it automatically exclude tables with the following database driver types from ProPath management:

 

•ADO

•ODBC

•MS-SQL

•Pervasive SQL

•Pervasive Btrieve

•SQL Anywhere

•Oracle

 

Tables with these driver types are excluded from the pick lists in the templates and also from NAME manipulation by ProPath.

 

This makes it easy for developers who use ADO, SQL and ODBC file types ( as well as mixed environments that include files such as TPS files ) to use ProPath.

 

 

Native Support for TPS SuperFiles ( storing multiple TPS tables in a single file )

 

ProPath now has native support for TPS SuperFiles.

 

If you have files setup in your DCT where the NAME is declared in the format of <filename>\!<tablename> then ProPath will manage the <filename> portion of the NAME and include the <tablename> as needed for the SuperFIle.

 

 

 

New Demos

 

ProPath 2.1 includes two new demo applications that include:

 

Demo17 - a multi-DLL example that shows how to allow the user to change the MAIN data path during the First Run event and afterwards from the Main program menu.

 

Demo18 - a single EXE example that shows how ProPath excludes the file types listed above as well as native SuperFile management.
