Re: A question to an older graphics designer
It was always 640x480 - all monitors were 4:3, so 640x480, 800x600, and if you had a really good monitor and enough graphics memory, 1024x786 In DOS, you generally worked with 320x240 or 640x480. Sometimes you would use the resolutions of 320x200 or 640x400, but they were DOS limited, you never had ...

Re: [Not Bug] FindString find not the string
Just as a thought, but what if it was possible to say, all functions *have* to define all parameters, i.e. EnableExplicitParameters. Personally I detest optional parameters, because (imho) it encourages bad coding practice, such as the same function doing completely different things, depending on th...

Re: Support for Ascii compilation ends after the next LTS cy
SpiderBasic just compiles to Javascript, so everything is done at browser level.
I think the file(s) output are UTF-8, but what the browser does with it is another question entirely.

Re: Why to choose PureBasic?
PowerBasic: I would have tried if they have a trial version. No trial, no go. I wasn't shelling out $199 to find out whether I liked it or not. RealBasic: Trial version would not work no matter what I tried, and for what I required, I would have had to buy the "Pro" version, which IIRC was...

CreateDialog + OpenXMLDialog + #PB_Any
I think this is a bug in implementation, but I do have to check first. The idea is that when you click a button, the XML Dialog window will show, and then the only thing you can do is then close it. If I have the CreateDialog and the XML window id set to the same value, you can then trap that EventW...

Well damn, when did that runtime library get added?

Calling Procedures by Name
Is it possible, somehow, to call a procedure within the same executable, but by using the name of the procedure, or a label to locate the address of the procedure or some other way of doing it? My current solutions is either a massive Select Case statement, or I use DLLs which have stringy return is...

Re: Unicode string Len and Mid procedures using SSE2
Windows 7 SP1, PB 5.30 x64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3450 CPU @ 3.10GHz Unicode mid string, SSE2 vs PB Short string : 101(SSE2) vs 86(PB) Longer string : 82(SSE2) vs 82(PB) Very long string : 391(SSE2) vs 2229(PB) I think I'd prefer this version that takes a hit on small strings but I get a performance ...

Re: Support for Ascii compilation ends after the next LTS cy
This makes good sense - we all have 3 years! to change and update our software. Introducing Unicode at the next LTS would be too big a change too soon for some people, so this decision is a very wise move. This means that gives Fred & Co a lot of time to resolve bugs, as well as a community, we ...

Just to raise this an issue again, but why doesn't Prototype.s work the same as Prototype.i + PeekS()?

BTW, could some of you test the links for the LTS version on your user account and confirm everything is OK ? Aye, they all download fine for me. And the Windows x64 5.22 installs just fine as well. Slight Problem! Install the 5.30 x64, and in the uninstall list in Programs & Features, PureBasi...

A generic serializer - in xml AND json! *drools*
This finally fixes a problem of generic communication between 32 bit clients and 64 bit servers! Woohoo!
