Thanks! If I remember correctly (it's been a long time!), the libcurl dll returns an error code in case of an error. That code could be easily used to raise an exception. Depending on the scenario that exception could include the error message text which can be extracted from that dll as per the exa...

I noticed that curl is also embedded in the latest windows 11. Microsoft now 'cherry picks' some of the best open source packages for development. This makes the VPcURL package even more interesting.
Perhaps a candidate as a starting point for official embedding in a new release of VP?

Hi Rene, the libcurl.dll must be placed in the same directory as the program exe. After all these years there is still no apparent change in the libcurl.dll interface. The libcurl.dll can be obtained from one of the binary downloads provided on the Haxxe website. On the other hand I use a -very - ol...

After some 10 years, the "VPcURL revised" package needs some minor updating for version 10. Just use the guidance of warnings and errors(2) messages. Change uncheckedConvert into convert

Thanks! That was easy. I retrofitted also the version 9 changes regarding the bit::bitAnd change into the ** operator (and other similar changes). Could not find the operator section in the Wiki. Wonder why for instance ** was chosen instead of the usual &&. Fortunately the warning messages ...

My Prolog has become rusty
How do I handle:

uncheckedConvert(pointer, Binary)
e504 The expression has type '::binary', which is incompatible with the type '::pointer'

Works for me too! Chrome browser.

I'm sure the large Inno Setup users community can be of some assistance, but basically you are on your own :oops: . Over the years, Inno Setup worked for me, and I let it create registry entries for the program, e.g. uninstall. I did not sign the program, however the download site had a domain certi...

Now that you mention it, yes my VP installation always goes smooth. One tip though, if you provide a generic download of a certain VP version (which requires f.i. a registration code at install time), your installable will be even better accepted than your current downloads which are personalized. A...

For instance: an installer helps create one or more entries in the windows registry at install time under your control, which in turn are recognized by the anti virus program. It also provides the possibility to 'sign' the installable. (I never used the latter). Also the fact that an uninstaller is ...

Perhaps I missed it, but did you guys deploy your apps in an installer like Inno Setup?
That might help.

Thomas, since you stress the importance of a VCS, here are my two cents: Modern IDE's are integrated with a VCS, primarily with GIT, which helps a lot with the learning curve. As a spin-off it is a natural to be able to invoke a sophisticated diff view so that the changes (= progress :-) or mistakes...

After reinstall it works. But now the plugin 'plugin manager' is lost.

Tried both VIP 5.1 and VIP 7.5 files.
Doesn't work for me either. Will try reinstall.

I noticed that the latest version of Notepad++ 7.5.1 announces Visual Prolog language support.
That would be of course a good thing!
Can anybody comment on that?
Thanks,
