Re: Getting system environment variables only (Windows)?

Is there anything standing in the way of you using the functions in PureBasic's Process library to get the variables and values?

I read and received an answer that sometimes worried me
Both methods (indexed and dynamic) can be used together at the same time without any conflict.
Did you resolve your worries or do you still have concerns when mixing indexed and dynamic object numbering?

Re: Better handling of Custom Events/EventTypes

Wouldn't it be more logical if the whole program uses ONE #PB_Event_FirstCustomValue? I don't see why every module needs its own... There is only one #PB_Event_FirstCustomValue. It's a constant.

Re: Better handling of Custom Events/EventTypes

You need to do all of the enumerations through the common module, whether inside or outside of a module.

Modules can't access the enumerations in the main scope but the main scope can access the enumerations in the 'public' scope of a module.

Re: PB6.10 b5 Created Image fails being recognized.

Maybe it is related to the other bug involving #PB_Any (=-1).
