Re: R: Best way to create interactive GUI apps with octave?

[Riccardo Corradini]

Sure,
but the example is not mine
'cause is taken from
http://forum.ubuntu-it.org/index.php?topic=111537.msg756738

PUBLIC processo AS Process

PUBLIC SUB Form_Open()

  StartOctave()

END

PUBLIC SUB Process_Read()

  DIM sLine AS String
  
  READ #processo, sLine, - Lof(processo)
  
  Terminale.Text = Terminale.Text & sLine

END

PUBLIC SUB StartOctave()
  
  Processo = SHELL "octave" FOR INPUT OUTPUT 
  
END


PUBLIC SUB Button1_Click()

  PRINT #Processo, Comando.Text 

END

The  function StartOctave  runs the process and links pipes (Processo = SHELL "octave" FOR INPUT OUTPUT)
In this way I can read and write over a process like if it were a file
With the function Button1_Click() I print the commands that the users writes  over the process (it is a just a sort of terminal)
While Process_Read is the function that controls if there is something to read over the stream process and adds it to text-box "terminale" in order to visualize it.

Hope my rough translation will be useful to the community.

Gambas looks cool indeed, but how do you interface it with Octave? Have you ever done that yourself?
I would be very interested in seeing an example if you have one.
