OE Techniques and Coding
Code samples, whitepapers, and discussion on techniques for using various ABL features and solving various requirements faced in writing ABL code.
Using .net user control with 4GL (adm2) container
Wed, 2015-01-07 15:22 — brynjarThe sample shows how a .net user control can be used with an ADM2 container. There is no specific support for ADM2 otherwise (links, etc) but it should be quite possible to modify the window super-proc to support automated display of date values in a date picker, f.ex, along the lines it's done for the JukeBox framework.
Components:
JBoxWrapWindowInForm.p:
Super proc for container that keeps track of control(s) in window, (re-)creates the window menu as .net menu and manages resize of control(s)
JBoxWrapperForm.cls:
The DocxFactory Project
Tue, 2014-05-27 18:35 — alonbDocxFactory is a free project for generating .DOCX files.
Features at a glance -
- Simple to use - To create a .DOCX file, design a template (regular .DOCX file) and merge your data with the template using 4GL/ABL or from the command line. No technical knowledge of the .DOCX file format (Open XML) is required.
- Powerful - Does a lot more than simply inserting values and creating simple letters, it allows you to truly create real world, sophisticated reports and includes barcodes, pictures, paging features and much more.

Date Picker in pure ABL
Wed, 2014-03-19 13:48 — mucipHi,
This Time picker is written pure in 4GL/ABL. No need to using any other ocx. I written this tool because I don't like to use MS products much... :)
This code is written in Turkish but I'm sure it's easily to convert other languages by coder...
Regards,
Mucip:)
Marginal Tiete - progress game
Tue, 2012-04-03 16:19 — Jaison AntoniazziGreetings,
I made this game to emulate Atari's Grand Prix.
You can use this code to view how to use dynamic objects and other functions like includes, and methods.
Running:
1. Extract all files,
2. Select car.p and right click, choose RUN under window's context menu or open it with progress procedure editor.
Skype me jaison.antoniazzi for questions.
Enjoy :D
Best regards,
Jaison Antoniazzi
Haversine implementation in ABL
Mon, 2012-02-06 06:44 — d.cookThis is the Haversine formula translated into an ABL procedure. The Haversine formula is used for determining the Great-Circle distance in km between two latitude/longitude references.
The formula is based off the Javascript interpretation here: http://www.codecodex.com/wiki/Calculate_Distance_Between_Two_Points_on_a...
Requires Progress STandard Libraries with math_asin function uncommented (see http://www.oehive.org/node/2057)
New Version of base64encode.p
Mon, 2011-12-19 18:32 — Scott AugeDries Feys was good enough to send out a new base64encode.p file over the peg. I am posting it here for further distribution (and use!)
(Note: Some have said they have had problems with this.)
abljson

abljsonJSON Parser for Progress ABL is a "wrapper" for the cJSON parser - ultra-lightweight, portable, single-file, simple-as-can-be ANSI-C compliant JSON parser.
The reader object can be used to load and parse a JSON string from either a file on the file system or from a character, longchar or memptr variable.

saxreader-procedure
Tue, 2010-06-01 09:16 — StefanA reusable .p that gives you the contents of an xml in two temp-tables (elements and attributes).
See the fileheader for a how-to-use.
