Include Helper
pbOptimizer

"C Backend" checks for unused functions and never adds them to the compiled file.

That's why I thought that events from windows also go through some kind of filter

SetWindowsHookEx + WH_CALLWNDPROC ?
SetWindowsHookEx + WH_SHELL + HSHELL_ACTIVATESHELLWINDOW, HSHELL_GETMINRECT, HSHELL_WINDOWACTIVATED ?
SetWindowsHookEx + CBTProc + HCBT_ACTIVATE ?

WM_ACTIVATE. These are the events of minimizing and maximizing a window. I don't know how to apply this to a third-party process.

Yesterday I wanted to respond about UPX, but I didn’t send it. Yes, antivirus programs unpack it, but they may assume that the compressed UPX is not a company product, so they probably add a risk rating. And I also read yesterday that the program loads only the executable part of the code into memor...

Update
Added language support
Bug fixed: a symbol was added before the bracket. (Linux version has not yet been rebuilt)
Added rule "-" before comma, no space after "-". And also before the bracket, if equating or listing separated by commas.

On Linux I had to specify the path to the texture, the path to the library Global CurPath$ = GetPathPart(ProgramFilename()) CurPath$ + "soil_wall.jpg" InitEngine3D(#PB_Engine3D_DebugLog, CurPath$ + "engine3d.so") If you put the file ("engine3d.so") in a folder next to t...

Building a DLL When using CallFunction() (or one of its similar CallXXX functions) on a DLL function you will get a pointer on the return string, which you could read with PeekS(). Using a pointer to the structure *s.String is not relevant, replace it with a pointer *s. I did some tests and I could...

How is a constant different from a variable? As a result, this will be a memory cell, with the only difference being that the variable can be changed.

For Linux without using SyntaxHighlighting.dll I checked on several sources, including adding a check to the code to ensure that the file has not been modified by removing spaces. ;- TOP ; AZJIO EnableExplicit Define UserIntLang ; Define ForceLangSel CompilerSelect #PB_Compiler_OS CompilerCase #PB_O...

I use it like this: CurDir$ = GetPathPart(ProgramFilename()) CreatePreferences(CurDir$ + "~Test.pref") You don’t have to get the path and then trim it, you do it once by storing it in a variable and then use it instead of calling functions. Macro CurDir() GetPathPart(ProgramFilename()) End...
