Tx for feedback, but differences seem actually to be caused by C/ASM mode and/or 32/64bit mode.

Compiling following code on x86, Windows, ASM mode, results here in a gain of speed with _ValdD by nearly 50% ... :D

PB 6.21: (with debugger)
ValD: 1193 ms
_ValD: 511 ms

PB 6.21: (no debugger)
ValD ...

Following the hints in https://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtopic.php?t=87644 , I verified that using atof is actually much more faster than built-in ValD().

Speed test for 100000 string conversions:
ValD: 785ms
with atof: 494

Below a small code that could be used as replacement, just comment out ...

Hi all,

I'm using PB on Windows and would like to force the Edge mode when using the webgagdet.

Is the following approach fail-safe, meaning that no system error message boxes will appear in case Edge is not properly installed ?

If ...

Thank you for this info, I was not aware of this yet.

But:the problem also occurs with key combinations that are not reserved by system, for example when using #PB_Shortcut_Control|#PB_Shortcut_Pad0.
I also was not able to find any working key combination with edge mode yet.

So I think, that there ...

When setting #PB_Web_Edge flag, keyboard shortcuts are not working anymore.

Code snippet to scan/readbarcodes via webcam. It depends on the ZBar lib command line tools (download from https://zbar.sourceforge.net/download.html ).

Maybe someone could help to improve:

Thank you idle and jassing, I just added corrections in first post

TX, I alrerady tried, but this does not work, too.
I also tried with .l instead of .i (btw, is there even a difference on 32bit ?).

It is really strange, for the C sample code works.

But it is not a free dll according to the web page.
It's ...

int in C is long in PureBasic, otherwise it can't work with the PB 64-bit version if you use it.

Tx, sorry, I forget: I'm using PB 32 bit version

Hello,
I found a free DLL to convert HTML to RTF ( https://sautinsoft.com/products/convert-rtf-to-html-com-win32-html-to-rtf/rtf-to-html-and-html-to-rtf.php ). The conversion just needs one API call, sample code (C) is included in the download package.

I was able to translate to PB and call the DLL ...
