Thank you very much, Fred and team! In my big projects only the following constructs stopped working with the C backend:
ExtractJSONStructure(JSONValue(File), @Items\ServiceProviders(), ServiceProviderItem)
gives
purebasic.c:7121:19: error: expected expression before 's_serviceprovideritem'

Hello everyone,

it would be great if the PB IDE would allow us to create executable with enabled integrated debugger.

Basically the "Compile/Run" tab of project targets should work during a commandline /BUILD of the project:

Would do you think?

Best regards ...

Hello everyone,

I would be nice if PureBasic could include a native Gadget that supports linked text, e.g. a SysLinkGadget like this one.

Thanks and best regards

FYI-- I created this thin wrapper around FAsm.exe in order to create and copy the .fas file to %TEMP%.

@Fred: if you would like to use StartSSL Code Signing certificates to also sign the Windows binaries, I would really love to contribute to the 59,90$ validation fee per year.

We uses CURL for all plateforms, Windows uses native SChannel and OS X native DarwinSSL and both are statically linked. On Linux, we uses the CURL lib shipped with the OS, as it's not possible for us to ship the root certificates for SSL connexions (but it shouldn't be a problem as CURL is almost ...

Thanks for the new release. Would you mind sharing some details about the HTTPS/TLS implementation? I guess it is very important to understand if PureBasic performs server certificate validation, e.g. using the system certificate store, etc. and which cipher suites are used. Does PureBasic use the ...

Since CloudFare just announced Universal SSL, it might also be an option to put a self-signed SSL certificate on the PureBasic-webserver and use CloudFare FullSSL to get a trusted certificate and globally load balanced performance at the same time.

Wow, great features in particular the new PREPROCESS compiler flag. But for simpler implementation of precompiler is it possible to insert a new tool trigger in the "tool-chain" like this?

Run tools with trigger "Before Compile/Run"
PREPROCESS
Run tools with new trigger "After Preprocess"
COMPILE ...

Hey PureBasic Team,

it would be great if the PureBasic website and forums were HTTPS-enabled, since usernames and passwords for each of those sites are currently send over the network in clear text.

For example, you can get free certificates from the following certification authorities:
- StartSSL ...

Thanks for implementing the first optimization mentioned in each of my posts above. What about the second ones?
; B = A
PUSH qword [rsp+40]
POP rax
MOV qword [rsp+48],rax
; With *Ptr
; \A\i = 1
MOV rbp,qword [p_Ptr]
MOV qword [rbp],1
; \B\i = 2
MOV rbp,qword [p_Ptr]
MOV qword [rbp+8],2 ...

Regarding the original feature request: It would still be great to have a console-type application that is able to compile using project files. The problem with using the IDE is that it opens a new console window if you run it from within a console shell.

However, the WebGadget uses OLE which is not threadsafe. You cannot use the WebGadget from threads. If it worked before, it was probably just luck.

That's good to know. Is there a list of non-threadsafe gadgets and commands? This may actually be a reason for a crash in one of my applications I ...

I would like to point out that even though we found a way to export functions from an executable using the approach described in this topic , having the requested functionality built into PureBasic would make it a lot easier to debug programs with external debugging tools.

The method described only ...

Thanks for the insight, Fred. I actually thought that the stack call based model is the (historic) reason. Thanks for the confirmation. :-)

I think it would be great if you could add the case of the second example to the peephole optimizer. Could you also elaborate a little bit on what is possible ...
