PureBasic Forums - English

That is now very clear and noted. I will ensure I untick it for any projects it may affect.

I noticed an option in Preferences/Compiler/Defaults that would allow default to be off. That option (and all from Enable modern theme support to enable dll preloading protection (Windows)) are disabled. Two ...

Hi Fred,

Thanks for comments. I unticked the option and the image is now the same size as in AppKit and SDL2 versions. Comparing the images generated within each they also appear identical. That seems to have solved it.

I feel a little obtuse. I have read the menu option a few times and I suppose ...

When you mentioned that I had a panic spell for a moment - did I confirm the obvious? Phew ... I had ticked it. Yes, I had spotted it and made a note to select DPI aware executable.

Just ran the checks again and the image displayed in PB image gadget is exactly half size of same 128x128 image ...

Using PureBasic 6.10 beta 6 - C Backend (MacOS X - arm64) - on MacBook Air M1 and Mac mini M2 with Studio Display both in default retina resolution. I noticed some issues with images and created a few tests in PureBasic and Objective-C using AppKit. Keeping it simple I created an image or bitmap in ...

Bought a Raspberry PI when PB was announced for Arm.

Small tip. If you have a Linux ARM Virutal machine running under macOS M1, you can use the Purebacis ARM for Rasperry.


That is a very useful tip. I assume Debian ARM with XFCE on UTM would be a decent platform? I tend to like Debian.

I have ...

Documentation. Best there is. All in one place including all the libraries and support. Perfect. I would pay good money for a bound book of the full set - I have paid quite scary amounts for books that don't come close.

I agree — since you mention it, the PB documentation is certainly a ...

Agree with most except no to git and no real Python comparison.
Fossil is more succinct and a complete package for PB users.
Python is bloat and oop.

Welcome back!


I was not aware of Fossil and on quick look it demands a more detailed look. I just got used to GIT and it is the "comfortable ...

Welcome back and thank for the kind words ! It's still growing and maturing, after more than 25 years (!) of development.


It has grown and matured well. Expanded neatly without excessive bloat. A decent language and system that is easy to become productive with. I miss that with BASIC ...

I have been away from PB for a few years. Past user and really liked it. Perfect for quick apps. It was my go to for utilities, editors, front ends to microcontrollers and even a few games. I have never found something so accessible since days of old on BASIC (BBC BASIC for me on BBC B, Master and ...

Returning to PB after a few years on Python and C. Liking what I see in 6.x. The editor is very well done. I rather liked CodeRunner with Dash on macOS for Python, C, Rust and others. The PureBasic documentation is amazing. Is there any chance of this being made available as a Dash DocSet?

Hi,

I have installed latest purchased version for macOS - 5.72. Error message shows IDE build on 03/30/2020

Running on macOS 10.15.4. When I run IDE all looks fine. I can write some code and compiles and runs. All works fine. When I open an example or other file I get a segmentation violation ...

I was being slightly "tongue in cheek" :wink:

I find the PB forums super helpful and some great sources of discussions. I should have taken more care to outline the question and original post in more detail.

I appreciate any help. Basically trying to get the command line compiler error messages ...

Thanks for replies. I was not really clear what I was asking. Sorry - reading back on my own post I was not clear what I was asking! When I mentioned I had seen no easy way to use it from command line I meant a command within make that I can then parse to populate the location list in VIM. I will ...

Hi,

I have been and on and off user of PureBasic and SpiderBasic for a while. Super tools and a great language. I have purchased both and delighted to support development in the small way I can. I am a long time forum lurker and this is my first post.

I want to make a lot more use of PB and SB ...
