Re: [PB5.20b19] Recursion plus SELECT = Invalid Memory Acces

Thanks davido, yes that explains things...
Thanks to you also Little John, it shows how far back this problem goes. It it's understood what's happening, I wonder why the Syntax Check has not been updated in all these years to flag it as a no-no since it breaks the execution with a known stack ...

[PB5.20b19] Recursion plus SELECT = Invalid Memory Access

I am running PB5.20 beta 19 LTS (x64) on Mint 15 (Ubuntu variant).

If I use a SELECT...ENDSELECT statement with an embedded GOTO in a procedure that is recursive (calls itself), I get an error message after the first recursion. If I replace the SELECT...ENDSELECT with a IF...ELSEIF...ELSE...ENDIF ...

the only workaround is to use ubuntu x32 to compile and code it. it will still work on the x64 edition after. it's the only way for now until fred fixes it.

I found doing this did not produce the results I expected. When I used the ODBC database function, and tested it under 32-bit Ubuntu Hardy 8 ...

In PB, under File > Preferences and then Editor > Defaults, do you have anything set in the "Current Directory" field?

On my installation, I leave this blank.

Very Nice Start! I look forward to testing more...

I noticed that when it builds the Open_Form procedure, it's forgetting the CloseGadgetList() at the end of defining the Gadgets on the screen.

I also get an error when I drag and drop the WebGadget. It says the GTK Mozilla is missing. Can you tell ...

I am ready and waiting... :D

My workstation is an Intel Duo Core2, a 64 bit dual core processor running Ubuntu 8.04 64-bit. It's a self-built PC. 8 gig RAM, 2TB of drive space, and the motherboard has a native HDMI output in parallel with a VGA output so I can plug it directly into my HDTV at ...

I'm running PB 4.20 (x86 Linux) under Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy.

In PB, under Compiler > Compiler Options > Compile/Run I have checked "Create temporary executable in the source directory".

This creates a "purebasic_compilation#.out" file in the same directory where I'm editing the PB source code. As a ...

Good idea. I think I will set up another VirtualBox on Ubuntu Hardy and install the 32-bit version of Ubuntu into it. That way it keeps my ...

With the new package comes a "checkinstall.sh" file. Nice Shell-Script. What more does a coder need?

This checkinstall.sh script was a HUGE help. As it flagged each item that was not ready, I installed it from the package manager and ran the script again until it was clean.

If the script wasn't ...

Purebasic Designer

I tried 3.90 or 1? (which I think was installed by the full PB 3.93 package for Windows), and 3.92.1460 (Beta 4?) downloaded from http://users.pandora.be/berikco/download.htm

It seems to trigger the problem during a cut & paste that fails. When that happens, then the ID of both windows being ...

Purebasic Designer

Thanks for the suggestion. I've looked at it and it seems like it's a step ahead. The only thing that product is lacking is the abiity to add code fragments to the code generator. I would like to add standardized code to certain events such as: On Application Start, On Application End, On Window ...

Purebasic Designer

Thanks, I was looking for an alternative to the Visual Designer from Purebasic. It is very unstable and looses track of it's gadgets/objects if you have two windows being designed in the same project. It looses track of the ownership as to which window owns which gadget. Once that happens, then the ...
