Getting Correct TwainSourceName string using VFP

[2basix]

Hi there,

The functions provided by the GDxxx OCX are 1 character to long for
use in Visual Foxpro applications.
To get a correct String, strip 1 character at the end.

cGetSource=TwainGetSourceName(1)
cGoodVFPString=SUBSTR(cGetSource,1,LEN(cGetSource)-1)

The reason for that is that the TwainGetSourceName(x) function
returns a string with a chr(0) at the end !!! ( a string terminator in eg C++ )
You have to strip this 1 character in order to get a correct Foxpro string.

Hope this helps all you Foxpro addicts out there.

Greetings,

Leo

Hi Leo. Thanks for this repport.

For the next release I will remove the end chr(0) from the returned string.
