Thanks a lot for your purchase.

Just a note, this is a very early version of the CCL. I'm sure by the time it's at version 1.0 there will be even more classes implemented than are listed currently.

Also every class function resides in its own source file and each class has its own folder, so it should be fairly easy to follow :).

I'll probably grab a copy of your source before too long... all the friction and heat generated while *wildly* yanking my credit card out (in the last few minutes) earlier today, means it's time to let my wallet cool off a bit first....  ::)

Are you going to  have a re-seller program :)
Title: Re: CCL Source License
Post by: Shannara on January 26, 2006, 11:42:12 AM
I may grab a copy, but would like to know what is included before buying :) You stated 103 source files, but ... what is included? FTP? String functions? etc?
Title: Re: CCL Source License
Post by: Parker on January 26, 2006, 01:09:38 PM
Currently the source includes all classes that come with the install. But as I said above, more will come. I'm thinking about doing a wizard type class for dialogs so you can do pages easily.

The reason there are so many files is all the classes' functions have their own file. Which makes a smaller compile and hopefully is easier to understand. FTP will come later, for now it's just raw internet, the string functions include convert to unicode (UTF-16), from UTF-16, and the unicode string length function. And the dynamic string class will be included when Lewis gets it.

MySQL is being worked on at the moment, and I just got my windows installation back so I'll be writing some more classes pretty soon.

QuoteAre you going to  have a re-seller program :)
The CCL is going to remain free, although the source code will come with a charge. Lewis is handling the sales and I get half since I'm half the team ;)
So I don't believe anyone else is going to be able to sell the source, but feel free to tell anyone about the CCL. Of course it requires Aurora (or assembly but it'd be a bit akward to use).

Post by: Zen on January 26, 2006, 01:16:55 PM
Hmm i think Parker said just about what i said. Obviously, it is a one off price and that gives you updates for life. You can also help contribute to the source once you have purchased it. There will be a website coming soon with the soure management system etc.

I doubt there will be a reseller program as it is only $25 and that is split evenly between me and parker. In the future if CCL takes off and we have a lot more classes then the price may go up, however this will not affect pre-purchased customers.

Every day now i think of new ideas for classes for CCL, so who knows where it will go. Hopefully a long way.

Heh, well I told my wife that the share I bought into would help in the long run, and gave her a history of IBasic and Paul T. stressing this is a sound investment :) (The share part), the CCL part was just .. well, come on, sources always help :)

Of course Aurora is some type of new telescope technology that's going to let you enjoy lots of pretty pictures of the northern lights. All you need is an investment in the company and a few source code licenses ::)
Title: Re: CCL Source License

Well at least you get to the part where you mention what source code is. If i get that far i know im on a roll.

My wife - computer literate but not a programmer - wanted a share. She thinks my enthusiasm is an indicator of future profit.

I think parker was making a humerous excuse to buy Aurora. Meaning Aurora, as in Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights)

It's where the name came from, just a story to say "no, of course I'm not buying more computer stuff". But it's a pretty bad story, no one would believe it. That's why it was supposed to be funny.

There are a bunch of jokes that I don't get too ;)
Title: Re: CCL Source License
Post by: Zen on January 28, 2006, 11:43:02 AM
I dont dare crack jokes here because most of the people are from the US. Im afraid if i tell a joke there will be just tumbleweed flying past people's screens. Strange though i find US humor funny but a lot of people from the US dont find british humor funny.

Lewis

P.S. Buy CCL ;D

Are you kidding? Monty Python, Fawlty Towers, Maggie Thatcher.

Post by: Zen on January 28, 2006, 11:57:34 AM
Maggie Thatcher. Ahh a bit before my time but still. Monty Python, what a classic (Life Of Brian) oh you can watch it so many times, it just never stops making me laugh. Fawlty Towers. Wow thats cool you like it. I love manwell in it. I guess you must have a thing for John Clease films?

One film i really do love is Airplane. It truly is pure comedy at its best. Lesley neilson is amazing in it.
