PCRE update

Hi,
In browsing the forum I see a year ago it was requested to update the unsecure version of PCRE regular expressions, and confirmed by Fred himself. In the latest version unless I am mistaken I still see the help file for the old version. Was the version updated and the help file not? Or was it ...

Re: number guess purebasic conversion

Ok, it seems the problem was my While loop which you just discarded, which I thought was necessary for some reason.
You just moved the required input into the appropriate Case and voila. After I see it it seems so simple, but I couldn't figure it out for the life of me.

Thanks Bernd,

number guess purebasic conversion

Hi All. I was taking a python course(slow interpreted language), and I thought I would convert some of the exercises to speedy executable PureBasic code just to see how easy it would be. So I started with a simple guess your number program in a window. What was trivial in the console was far more ...

Re: get text line by line from Scintilla

Actually scratch what I said. I was looking at the second example, but the first one is much easier to follow, and I can understand it for the most part.
Thanks both of you for the code.

Re: get text line by line from Scintilla

thanks Danilo and Tenaja for the code, and I will end up using it only because I started with the Scintilla gadget, but when I started using Scintilla I was hoping for something in the lines of the editor gadget that
I could understand and was simple to program. I rely on Fred to shelter me from ...

get text line by line from Scintilla

hi all,
As the title suggests, I can get the complete text from Scintilla into one string, but in my program I want to bring it line by line into a linked list of lines. I had some code which I inadvertently
left at work, which uses Sci_numLines or whatever, but doesn't work. anyways I used to like ...

Re: Scintilla Readonly

IdeasVacuum,

Yours is closest to what I want, I don't want to be able to change anything on the editor. I guess when I think about it what I thought of as read-only is different than what I needed. In a read-only document I think
it is still possible to make changes, you just can't save them. My ...

Scintilla Readonly

Hi everyone,

I quite like the Scintilla Gadget, and have been using it exclusively. Can someone tell me how to
make it readonly, so that one can't make changes to it? In reading the documentation there is
a SCI_SETREADONLY(bool readOnly), which I have enabled, but which still allows changes to be ...

Re: Serial Port

I completed my code, I wanted the program to end by itself so at the window event #SendFinished and #ReceiveFinished I added PostEvent (#PB_Event_CloseWindow) after a delay. It works good and is a nice way to complete the ending of the program, as in event-driven programming it is not always cut and ...

Re: Serial Port

Bernd,

Thanks again, sorry for the many questions, you have been very generous with your coding. I try to follow your code and I see how much I have yet to learn. I can sort of follow it but to write it myself
I have to work with it a lot more. It seems you are pushing the Send and Receive buttons ...

Re: Serial Port

Alexander,
I didn't even think of the SetGadgetItemText, but it makes sense that it would work, thanks for the tip, and for translating your program to english, whenever you have time,
no hurry. I appreciate that.

Bernd,
I have a question. I am passing parameters to the program, an S or R for send ...

My perspective

Hi All,

I wanted to talk about Purebasic in relation to my personal journey in programming. I started out at 16 years old while most people were buying cars I bought the TRS-80 Level 2 computer as it was the latest
thing at the time. I took a loan out and bought it for $1200 as I recall in 1977 ...

Re: Serial Port

Infratec,
Your code works beautifully, I have to pour through it so I can understand it a bit better. I still want the EditorGadget to update as I'm bringing in or sending the code, rather than all at once. It seems that the only way to update
the gadget is with AddGadgetItem, which adds a whole ...
