Win32forth Programs

Conceptual Entity Relationship Diagrammer

A conceptual entity diagrammer lets you diagram concepts as entities and relationships. This diagrammer is simple but functional. Its also an example of how FORTH can be used to do a windows program. It is a work in progress and expect it grow in features.

Here is the forth source: entity.f

Here is the dc.f kernel file from the win32forth src directory that you need to make it work from the source code. If you don't know how to recompile the system then just download the exe or learn to use the setup program that comes with win32forth.

So here is the entity program all compiled and ready to run entity.exe Note that you need some dlls from Win32forth so its best to run this exe from the win32forth directory. If you don't have win32forth, here is the w32fConsole.dll that you need just put it in the same directory as the entity.exe and it should work.

The one thing I should tell you about using it is to use the ctrl key to select entities. Select two entities to enable making a relationship between them.

Here is a link to a sample file from the entity diagrammer. If you don't know what to diagram, this will help you understand. Sample Diagram You can open this file with the entity diagrammer.

Network Class

I developed a network class to use as a basis for a networking application I am working on. The network class is for network clients only since I didn't add the server calls yet. So you can only create a client socket with this code. There is an example use at the end of the file that shows how to use the class. The example word is called nettest. Here is the source: network.f.

Mysql Class

If you want to use a database with Win32Forth then mysql is a free database that is very powerful and easy to use. You can get mysql from http://www.mysql.com/ I created a class to access mysql from win32forth. The file is mysql.f
