Yup, it’s been a long time since I’ve posted here.
The Clarion Aussie Devcon 2009 is currently underway. The Training days finished up yesterday (Thursday), and this morning a lot of us went on a Whale Watching trip out around the bays. Mmmmm, whale blubber.
This afternoon the Conference starts in proper. We’ve got a massive weekend chocka-clock full (see Schedule here).
I’ve already heard a lot of great things about Clarion 7 and .NET. It seems like there’s the possibility of Clarion 7.1 being released to Conference members by the end of the weekend (possibility, not certainty).
Last night at dinner Bob Foreman convinced me of the importance of the mindset. I’m going to fire back into Clarion 7 with fervour.
I hope to post some more throughout the weekend. I’ll be trying to get some “Mini” interviews done on the iPhone.
I’m not sure about the future of Clarion Folk, but at least for this weekend it’ll be getting some content :)

I’ve finally moved back to using “end” as opposed to “.” in my code. Took place a couple of weeks ago, and now my brain is fully engaged with the “end”.
See, important.

I have resigned my post as Clarion Tech Evangelist.
This was not a quick decision.
Thanks one and all for your support over the last year. It was much appreciated.
I feel that apologies are in order. I had many dreams and visions of what could be done when I started the evangelist gig. Unfortunately the only one that really came about was the podcast.
Incidentally, the podcast won’t be stopping, at least I don’t see why it will. Have to talk to the other folk, but pretty sure we’ll keep batting on about how much better Australia is at sports than South Africa.
Mucho thanks to Bob Z, Bob F, and the rest of the gang at Soft Velocity. I’ll be watching (and participating in) the action with great interest.
Kudos!
]]>In a discussion on the Skype Clarion channel just now, Wolfgang asked me to post how to Code-Sign your own Exes/DLLs in SetupBuilder.
Saddle up.
1. I’ve got my Certificate information in the “General Information” window.
Now I just want to sign my own files. Of which there are two. An EXE and a DLL.
2. So I go to the Script Editor.
3. Just above the “Features” line, get a couple of blank lines going on.
I haven’t experimented past “just get it working”, so there are probably a bunch of different places you could do this.
4. Make sure the line is selected.
5. Double-click on the “#embed Vista manifest…” Compiler Directive Script Function in the top right-hand corner of SB.
6. As follows after the image:
(a) Add your filename.
(b) Fill out the Name and Description.
(c) Check these two.
7. Double-click on the “#code-sign application” Compiler Directive Script Function in the top right-hand corner of SB.
8. As follows after the image:
(a) Add your filename.
(b) Put in a Description
(c) These should be defaulted, if you’ve got the same as me in 1.
(d) Definitely stick this in :)
(e) Check these two.
9. Compile
And there you have it. That’s all I did to get this working.
When you compile, the little “password” appear. SB will fill in the password if you’ve entered it. See (d) directly above.
Hope this has been helpful for Folk.
