By contributing any material you are agreeing that:
In other words any contributions to this site will become public domain.
But enough legalese, the details for contributing FAQ/Tips and PFC Extensions / New Services are listed below.
The guidelines for FAQ contributions are simple. Send an email to submit@pfcguide.com with:
Category.
Try to select one of the categories listed on the PowerBuilder Foundation Class FAQ page. If you do not see a fit on the FAQ page send us a suggestion.
Problem statement.
A single sentence summary of the problem. Can be phrased as a question. This will be used in a Table of Contents at the top of the page. Keep it short and to the point.
Problem description and solution.
This is where you can elaborate on problem description. Provide code samples and anything else that may help you illustrate your solution.
The guidelines for submission of service extensions or new services may be summarized in four categories:
What
Why
How
Where
What
For an extension provide a name of the existing PFC service. If it's a new service give it a logical name.
Why
A small paragraph describing the need for the specific service or extension.
How
Describe the techniques used, provide code samples. Description should provide enough detail so that the reader may understand the service purpose and the implementation without opening the objects in PowerBuilder.
Where
For example for a new datawindow service you may need to include a u_dw, n_cst_dwsrv_yourservice, and a n_tr.
Please remember to test any submissions. The submitted extensions will be given a revision number to allow for future enhancements / bug fixes.
Send the above to submit@pfcguide.com.
