[sword-devel] ActiveDiatheke ocx: may have gotten working again

[Lynn Allan]

I'm a Crosswire-Sword newbie with an interest in using the ActiveDiatheke component in a freeware project. I've been wrestling with the sources, and may have it working again. I made some minor changes to the "query" function to bring it up-to-date and consistent with 1.5.6, and fussed with the project .dsp files to get rid of compilation and linkage errors.   My impression is that a working ActiveDiatheke component would solve some/many problems that Ms Visual C++ 6.0 programmers have in using the Crosswire-Sword resources and tools. I'm unfamiliar with VB 6.0, but the VB ActiveDiathekeDemo program is also working now.   I'd like to make these changes available, if appropriate, but as a CVS newbie, didn't know how to proceed. I had in mind to "package" the source with the ocx, along with a simple MFC program that uses the ocx. If acceptable, these could go in the "apps" section of the CVS tree.   Lynn Allan
