CLACom FAQ's - Templates


I'm using Clarion 5.5. When I add a CLACom Template Procedure, such as InitializePort, the procedure is empty and doesn't have a Window.

With Clarion 5.5 and above, you need to select the CLACom Template procedure from the Defaults Tab on the Select Procedure Type window.

I'm a Hand Coder and have never used the Application Generator. Will CLACom work for me since I'm unable to use the Templates?

CLACom is written in "C" and interfaces to your Clarion Application as a DLL. You are not required to use any of the Templates. They are simply provided to make certain Communications Tasks a bit easier (such as Dialing a Phone Number, Answering the Phone, etc).

If you would like to use the prewritten Template code, you can easily copy the code from the Template file and create your own Hand Written Procedures.
