PureBasic Forums - English

Thank you for the update and the bug fixes!! Keep up the great work!

This issue is not fixed yet on 6.03 LTS
I'm stuck using 6.02 Beta because it is the only version that support non-admin installation mode, and my company don't allow to install any app that requires admin rights. I know.. it sucks, but it is what it is.

It install in program files if you choose 'Install for all users' as you need admin rights. If you choose to install only for you, it install in your private appdata folder. To use the C backend, you need to add it in the compilers (in IDE preferences -> Compilers -> add)


So, clearly there is ...

I would be rather surprised if a setup can be installed without requiring admin rights.


I install most applications for my user only, if they support. They installed into C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Programs\<folder>
And it was supported in PB 6.02 Beta 2 setup.
I'm also sure that I read ...

Great news!
Note that, I was able to install "PureBasic 6.02 beta 2" onto current user by a command line switch to setup, no admin rights were necessary. But with PureBasic 6.02 LTS, it requires admin rights even with /CURRENTUSER argument.

Thanks for the replies, both methods are useful.
Is it a bug of PureBasic or a known issue of Windows?

How can I print a line (or a content read from a file etc.) that includes newline (10, 13 or 0x0D0A) in graphical console?


EnableGraphicalConsole(1)
PrintN("hello" + #CRLF$ + "world")


This prints out hello☐☐world on the console. If I remove EnableGraphicalConsole then it works as expected.
I ...

We should be able to set any HTTP header for the request.
I need to request for an http://api.example.com but it requires me to set a custom header X-AUTH-KEY which is not possible with PB yet without going to direct network stuff.

@freak: Got it! Thank you. It solved my problem.

Here is my Pretty Print Json dos command source code, very useful to test web services that returns json


#maxSize = 64 ;64KB

If OpenConsole()
If CountProgramParameters() > 0
val.s = ProgramParameter()
Else
pos = 0
*Buffer = AllocateMemory ...

Here is my whole application code,
It reads from console data or program arguments, decode the json string and pretty-print it to console output.

I use it like:

more myfile.json | json.exe
or
json.exe < myfile.json
or
json.exe <some-json>
or
curl myurl | json.exe


All the above works if the ...

ParseJSON fails with "Unexpected end of input error" message if the given string is longer than 4096 byte.
Is there any chance to increase this limit?

Very cool improvements! Great work as always!

I just tested on my work PC, same result! So the problem is not about the PC or there is no problem at all.
ClearScreen doesn't behave as *expected* if InitEngine3D is used.

Edit: I just realized that when InitEngine3D is used drawing directly onto screen is (may?) not working:

InitEngine3D ...

Thank you for all, I'll try your suggestions at home.

I've tried your code, no success unfortunately.
I tried all combinations of the order of FlipBuffer(), RenderWorld(), ClearScreen(), no change.
On 1024x600 I see a flickering screen (complete black and my desktop image), if I change it to 800x600 then black screen only.
