#PB_String_InPlace for LCase and UCase
It would be useful to be able to LCase or UCase larger strings in place the same way that ReplaceString can.

FindString in a buffer
It would be useful to be able to supply a pointer argument to FindString's String$ parameter.

TCase or ICase
A New ...

It's a bit confusing that a totally different line was spat out as the errorneous one.

The purifier does sample testing periodically rather than all the time. It's error messages aren't definite like a compiler or debugger error is, this is done for performance reasons. The error is reported at ...

The /H parameter allows you to set a specific location for the history file. (If you don't want everything to go /PORTABLE).

Nice project.

This is the first time I have ever tried binding events/callbacks in PureBasic, and I think I may become a convert to that technique instead of a big event loop with many nested select and conditional statements. It was all much simpler to keep organised than I imagined.

Yes, I ...

You can achieve what you want with named enumerations, the compiler tracks the sequence separately across different names:
Enumeration FIRST 1
#F1st
#F2nd
#F3rd
EndEnumeration

Enumeration SECOND 1
#One
#Two
#Three
#Four
#Five
EndEnumeration

Enumeration FIRST
#F4th
#F5th
#F6th
#F7th ...

Yes, you are correct, it should be TRACKWINDOW. It's a "copy/paste/fail to update" error on my part.

It does prove that it's extremely difficult to proofread your own work fully!

Proposed fix in PR#349.

+1 Oh we so need an InspectrGadget!

without extensive platform-specific customization. That thing I wish to avoid.

I'm not aware of any language that can do this without the implementation of an abstraction layer of some description - but with that will come with at least some of the downsides of what you are seeing in Java, for ...

Isn't this what the Callstack is for in any case?

I don't know if it's a limitation of the debugger or the debug output window but you're getting the right result just not seeing it. This will point the memory viewer at the end of the buffer:
EnableExplicit

#SciWindow = 2
#SciTextGadget = 3

Hello and Welcome syntonica!

PureBasic maintains its own gadget numbers which are separate from the OS's Window ID or handle. Some commands require a number, others an ID or handle. You're supplying a number to a command which wants an ID, in this case CreateStatusBar requires a WindowID not a ...

Just for clarification the Editor tool, not the Debugger tool (we've played that game before! :) )

When a form design file is opened the Variable Viewer tool can't see the contained constants or variables until after a switch to code view is made.

It also lags behind the addition or deletion of ...

1) When a gadget is moved into a parent gadget the X and Y co-ordinates are zeroed. They should maybe remain unchanged or better still the correct offset calculated with respect to the original point and new origin so that relative position to the form origin is unaltered.

2) Where a parent Panel ...

Very interesting but a long, long way from a functional ERP database schema that is workable in a real application. It doesn't even meet Tier 3 never mind Tier 1!

There's nothing to stop a referred, well anything really, from being deleted. All that will occur is a "referential integrity" error ...

The help gives this code snippet telling size will be 10 but when I run it I get 18 instead:

It's out of date, it was written for the 32-bit compiler where pointers are 4 bytes (32-bits). Pointers are 8 bytes on a 64-bit processor.
Are you looking at an old help file? It looks Ok to me in the ...
