The topic says it all!

What project(s) are you gonna start or finish?
I will start :lol:

- PB RAD
Starting a real RAD designer tool for the PB langauge, with some cool techniques on doing rad. The PB language is now mature.
- PACS / HL7 Clients
Finish the projects for my clients, hospitals and try to beat the JAVA variants. They suck and are slow.
- Xray viewer and Aqcuire
Finish Xray viewer for hospitals working on dicom3.0 sets.

:mrgreen:

If speed is the performance metric you are after, you may be better off switching to Java. Even Fred has mentioned Java has distinct speed advantages over PB:

Well JAVA will probably outperform PB and most C compiler on such benchmarks because they get more informations on the current underlying hardware: as it's a JIT compilation, it can leverage SSE2/3/4, 64 bit and such stuffs if it's present. PB compiles a code which is compatiable with i486. And to be honnest, a whole team is working to optimize JAVA JIT so it's not really a surprise to see it faster. JAVA has evolved a lot, and if you choose the right JVM (server one please, for max speed), it often peroduce best results than C/C++.

Having said that, it is entirely possible that the Java variants are not slow because they used Java but because of how their code was written. If they wrote inefficient code, depending on how bad it is, even a slow interpreter could show a speed improvement. If that is the case, then you should have a certain winner with PB code.

It's going to be a good year (programming and otherwise)! I am currently working on...

- a utility / IDE tool for PureBasic... should be done this month... nothing crazy, don't get too excited

- a quick silly spinoff game of my big platformer I released last month... also done soon...

- a simple, easy-to-use C/C++ IDE designed for beginners... (reinventing the wheel, I know)

- my next big PB game, just getting started...

- unrelated electronics and music projects

* A app (for mac appstore and hopefully windows eventually) to specific eye motor control exercises.
* A system for measuring eye movements.
* A headtracker that will do exercise by moving head (and/or eyes).
* A chat client with depth perception (xtion/kinect).
This is a year I have been looking forward to for several weeks now :lol:

Still trying to find time to do that Text RPG... I have so many things on my plate I haven't coded in forever

I did redo my web site, though.. I guess that counts for creating something

Havoc. Maybe a bit of code here and there, but mainly havoc.
