yeah, something like this, but couldn't such a temorary cast like '*var.Integer : *var.Byte\b' be native?

Hi, would it be possible to easily implement the following?:

var.l = $5566
*heh.Long = @var

Structure struc1
var1.l
EndStructure

Structure struc2
var2.b
EndStructure

varstruct.struc1\var1 = $6655

;for more comfort when messing with bytes
;Debug *heh.Byte\b ;shows $55
;Debug varstruct.struc2 ...

Don't know.
I guess, there are better ways..

At first I thought about CreateMutex_

Hi,
I need to kill a thread and I guess KillThread wouldn't be a nice way.
So, how shall I do it?

I could set a global variable and check inside of the thread if it is set to exit, but this also wouldn't be such a nice way

Thanks.

You don't need to create your own imagelist with the new combobox gadget but only the newest beta supports ComboBoxEx, not?

As for your problem, try : #ILC_COLOR32|#ILC_MASK hehe, thanks, it's working

may I ask a second short question?
I didn't want to open a new thread, also I couldn't find a ...

Hi,
I create the imagelist like this:
images = ImageList_Create_(16, 16, #ILC_COLOR16, 0, 0)
SendMessage_(ComboBox, #CBEM_SETIMAGELIST, 0, images)

The icons I display are those of some executables like PureBasic.exe or EXPLORER.exe
and somehow the pixels which should be transparent are black

As ...

Aye, sorry, was tired yesterday.

The docu says, there is more to read, when result is equal to buffersize.
As the results say, it's directly unequal, but there is still more to read.

Sorry, I'm a noob in aspects of networks..
Also, the code should just represent a little snippet

I guess there's a difference between syntactical approaches and a whole different language + compiler.

1)
"for the cost of readability"
you can't simply generalize it, also it wouldn't mean one would have to use it.

2)
Ah, right, I didn't think of the possible need of a different operator

3)
yeah ...

Hi,
the docu says there is more to read, when the above expression is false.

*Buffer = AllocateMemory(20000)

SendNetworkString(Socket, Header)

While Not NetworkClientEvent(Socket)
Delay(10)
Wend

BufferSize.l = MemorySize(*Buffer)
Repeat
Size.l = ReceiveNetworkData(Socket, *Buffer, BufferSize ...

Hi,
I don't know, if this is already requested, implemented, not implementable due to other syntactical constructs or that ugly and unuseful, that it'll never be wanted
Sorry, I'm new..


1. If "on-the-fly":
something like
SetGadgetText(#MyButton, (MyVar > 0) ? "MyVar > 0" : "MyVar <= 0") like in ...

Documentation only mentions these constants in the context of EventType():

#PB_EventType_LeftClick
#PB_EventType_RightClick
#PB_EventType_LeftDoubleClick
#PB_EventType_RightDoubleClick
#PB_EventType_Focus
#PB_EventType_LostFocus
#PB_EventType_Change
#PB_EventType_DragStart
and only these ...

thank you
