Re: Real time in games

Or just use the built in Timer library :wink:

Edit:
Sorry, have mixed that with an other programming language. The PureTools have a timer library.
Another way is to use AddWindowTimer if you have one.

Re: How to reject double run?

Hi,

do you mean a Mutex? The Mutex provides functionality to determine if your app is already running and so prevent to run multiple instances.

Re: Why do I need X11 libraries ?

:oops: ups

Yeah, I think you're right. I assume that image handling functionality comes from GTK, too.

Re: Why do I need X11 libraries ?

Do you have selected the "console"-mode in compiler-settings of the project?
You can use the OpenConsole() functions in a GUI app without any windows...

Re: Finding the directory where the .exe file is

On Windows you are able to do it with the API:
GetModuleFileName_(#NULL)
or with standard PureBasic

Code: Select all

GetPathPart(ProgramFileName())

Re: Using PB 4.6 beta-3 for Project Release

Never, never, never, never, never, ..., never use an unstable version of the compiler to create your release version :!:

By the way, there was a "small" bug in a RC version of python or something. In this pre-release the uninstall script deletes the whole /usr/ directory on linux :mrgreen:

WinSock isn't cross-platform, is it?
To many of us, cross-platform support is a key attraction to PureBasic.
