Structure Optimization

I was just wondering if there are any advantages to static arrays or standard vars in a structure. For example:

Structure Vector
x.f
y.f
z.f
EndStructure

Structure Vector
Position.f[3]
EndStructure

Is there any differnce/advantage to either of the methods, in terms of speed or memory management ...

PB's Callfunction() command uses STDCALL, CallCFunction() uses CDECL convention.

I assume the samplesource and soundeffect structures are interfaces? That looks like the only source of the problem that I can see. Something it doesnt like.

That might not work, OpenGL wouldnt accept F64 doubles...

Certainly a good feature to have. But the 64-bit floats first. Please. :D.

Purebasic compiles to ASM, which is how Tailbite makes the libs. So essentially youre cutting out the middle man using PB, and you can still hand optimize the PB code with inline ASM.

If you intend on getting anywhere with DX 9, download the SDK. The help files are invaluable at times like these. If you already have them, then you should be able to figure most things out on your own.

I managed to get an OpenGL window (plus numerous unused functions, custom callback & message loop etc) in 6.5k.

Im quite proud of my window functions, they work nicely :D

You're exactly right. By far the most important thing that should be implemented next are double floats/longs etc. that lack of precision is holding PB back from its potential.

To be honest I wouldnt be bothered if the 3d side of PB is ever updated (although it would be nice to play with). I decided to go directly into OpenGL because I prefer to have control over everything.

As an examle, say I developed a game with Blitz. And then up pops a nasty bug with the 3d engine ...
