PureBasic Forums - English

Well, this is called at different times from different sources, basically the app path and subfolders are defined in some constants:
#MY_server$ = "C:\"
#MY_app_path$ = "mypath\"
etc.
Filename = #MY_server$ + #MY_app_path$ + "some-new-file-to-load.extension"
I will make a snippet, but this is basic ...

Thanks!
I still have heinous crash for this line in a 30k loc app.
wmi\mp$ = UCase(mpFileNamePath$)
I will need time to shrink snippet.
Compiler crash:
[11:13:12] Waiting for executable to start...
[11:13:12] Executable type: Windows - x64 (64bit, Unicode, Thread)
[11:13:12] Executable started ...

Ok, a2 works for this simple code.

I have errors still in the 40k LOC app.
I will try to make snippets in a few days.

Complex structure fails on this line with IMA and repeats in a loop...
wmi\mp$ = UCase(myFilePath$) ;<-- CRASH here

Nice!

Fred - did you consider making another string type?
Ex. Cstring for api, FastString for internal?

Or is the plan to have new string support all api calls with null terminated strings?

Thanks for checking this!

I can check some other errors today.
Windows 11 latest.

No, I turned purifier off from your notes on the alpha release.
I did enable threaded enabled, optimizer, shared crt.

Are the PB release unit tests published?
Like, nested parenthesis booleans, float and integer math.
Threaded variable destruction.
Race condition foot fall.
Memory leak checkers.
I know SQLite has some hidden and some published.

We're getting fast strings BEFORE v7.0

Yes, that's why I suggested unit tests or assert myimportantmath == 42;.
Same here, not big burns, but an ouch nonetheless that should be avoided.

Thanks, I'll keep looking but turns out I only had to use byte swapping for word data coming from an instrument.
; ; Type, Bytes, Min, Max, C Type
w.w[0] ; Word, 2, -32768, 32767, short

Like you, I prefer to rely on basic compiler operation to be confirmed by Purebasic unit testing prior to beta ...

Ouch!
Any idea when this started?
Was this ok before v630 Final?

Ok, lots of errors in big apps.
Structures with string arrays seem corrupt.
Cannot post snippet until this simple code runs without errors.

I think Fred's referring to the old way to split a string by replacing the token or delimiter with a \0.
The PeekS() may be more api compatible now than the Space() function which has a leading byte of len info?
