PureBasic Forums - English

Solved.
Deleting the purebasic.prefs file did the trick. Many thanks for the time and effort you have put it to solve this for me, it is much appreciated.
Also, I can report that the IDE doesn't hang on exit.

Understand your question, but to be clear, PB worked fine on the M1 mini until the OS update to Sonoma. I've since updated PB, Xcode and the Command Line tools.

The about screen at boot shows the installed version is;
This is the free version of PureBasic 6.02 LTS - C Backend (MacOS X - arm64 ...

Thanks Michael, but no joy. I still get the "The required compiler cannot be found" error.
I had an older version of Command Line Tools
minim1@MacMini ~ % xcode-select -p
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
minim1@MacMini ~ % git --version
git version 2.30.1 (Apple Git-130)

Thanks for the reply.
Update - since I uninstalled Xcode 14, deleted Xcode 14 and reinstalled Xcode 15 the error message is now "The required compiler cannot be found:"
According to this site https://mac.install.guide/commandlinetools/2.html , Command Line Tools are installed.

I've updated my M1 MacMini to Sonoma and Xcode 15. Attempts to compile any programs on PureBasic 6.02 LTS - C Backend (MacOS X - arm64) generate a "PureBasic - Linker error" with the text -
Undefined symbols for architecture arm64:

Cheers,

That works for me too. Oddly, if I change
destfolder$ = GetUserDirectory(#PB_Directory_Documents) + "test_unzip/"
to my working directory - it fails. I assume some permissions issue. I didn't want iCloud backing up many scraps* of files, so my PureBasic directory is top level. If I change ...

I want to uncompress files, but UncompressPackFile doesn't work on Big Sur. The same code is fine on Windows, so I've posted this as a bug http://forums.purebasic.com/english/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=77611&p=572561&sid=a59eb78e20b1292c2a368613c3761fe9#p572561 .

Hi all,

As a newbie, I'm unsure if this is a bug or my inexperience.
EDIT - now tested on Windows and works OK, so I'm confident that it IS a bug

I'm running PureBasic 5.73 LTS (MacOS X - x64) on macOS Big Sur 11.4 on a Mac mini (M1, 2020)

In the following code PackEntryName(0) returns only the ...

Many thanks infratec, that set me on the right path. As I needed to have an option to exit the program I ended up with the following code. It took a few tries to avoid end condition errors as I didn't twig that there are nested Selects, so that 2 EndSelects are needed.

Thanks to both people who responded, I will test and advise.

Hi all,

I'm looking for a way to pause a program and monitor the keyboard or mouse.

The program I have kludged up allows me to select a directory of images and display the Landscape pictures on my 2560 x 1440 display, and the Portrait pictures on my second 1440 x 2560 display.
