WLC Project Lister
(VFP 9/8/7/6)

Project Lister for VFP v6.3  (pl60.zip - 168KB)

(Updated 28-Nov-2004)

 

This utility lists the different source objects that are in a specific VFP project.  I created this tool to list each of the objects in the project as a checklist as I was developing an application.  As time moved on I added more and more features to give me more and more details about each of the objects.  Now I use the Project Lister to document the basics about projects I develop and to determine what exactly is in projects I am looking to take over.  The current incarnation not only plows through the different source code objects, but does a decent rudimentary job of documenting a database container as well.  Please note that it will not give you the depth that something like the Stonefield Database Toolkit gives you, but I find it useful.

 

Features:

  • Select project to document from an open project or one residing on disk

  • Configurable reports allow you to select what information appears

  • Configurable list of project objects allow you to select what object types appear on reports

  • Can browse the objects that will appear in output

  • Select from several reports (both large and compressed print) and different orders

  • Output to preview report, printed report, text file, Windows' clipboard, or free table format

  • Requires VFP 6.0 because it incorporates some of the new Project Object properties, events, and methods.

Project Lister for FoxPro 2.x (DOS and Windows) (plv120.zip - 76KB)

(Updated 09-Jul-1994)

This utility does nearly the same as the Project Lister for VFP 6.0 to 9.0, but pulls the information from 2.x projects.  There is naturally less information collected since this is the first step in the evolution of the Project Lister.   I still find it useful as I move projects from the 2.x world to the world of 32-bit development.

This tool was the centerpiece of the FoxPro’s Project File article in the November 1994 issue of FoxTalk.
