.hrb FAQ list 1999/05/19:
Current only available in a 32bit Intel version.
HRB structure (also known as Harbour Portable Objects) and
Runner (also known as TugBoat, Stubbing Executables (not yet) )
To create a runner :
C:..> bld32exe runner
Once the runner is created,
To create a .hrb and run it :
C:..> hbrun <filename>
If you just want to run a .hrb file :
C:..> runner <filename with .hrb>
If you just want to create a .hrb file :
Use command-line switch -gHRB when invoking Harbour
To see the contents of a .hrb file :
C:..> clipper readhrb /n/a/w {I am sorry}
C:..> blinker @readhrb
C:..> readhrb <filename without .hrb> {What do mean consistent}
If it goes too fast a readhrb.out is created containing the screen
output.
To run a .hrb file within a .prg (only possible if the .prg is compiled as a
.hrb file) :
HB_Run( <cFileName> )
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HRB structure (also known as Harbour Portable Objects) and
Runner (also known as TugBoat, Stubbing Executables (not yet) )
Version 1.0
The ultimate version will of course feature more, but let's just stick to the
minimal requirements.
The .hrb structure consists :
<ulSymbols> Long containing the number of symbols
{
<szSymbol> Name of symbol
<bScope> Scope of symbol
<bLinkType> Link type :
0 = NO_LINK (ie DATA symbol)
1 = FUNCTION* in .prg itself
2 = EXTERN. Link function pointer at run-time.
}
<ulFuncs> Long containing the number of functions
{
<szSymbol> Name of function
<ulLen> Length of function
<aPCode> PCode of function
}
* Since the module name itself is a symbol during compilation. ProcName()
was recognized as an internal function.
During the run-time link the runner therefore checks whether the compiler
has correctly identified a symbol as contained in .prg itself.
