PureBasic Forums - English

Whats left, is the part I have no idea on how to do in Purebasic, create an instance of the class and execute a method in it.
I am guessing everyone is using the source from the Powerbasic page, so that would be "Class1" and Method "Hello" with a parameter of String "name"

This is not the C++ source that I used, but it also loads Dot Net 4 from C++ http://blogs.msdn.com/b/msdnforum/archive/2010/07/09/use-clr4-hosting-api-to-invoke-net-assembly-from-native-c.aspx

With a native exe you can encrypt the Dot Net Metadata into your EXE, or have the rest of the app on the ...

Sorry I don't have the link saved anymore, if I remember correctly it was on the Microsoft Blog, or one of the blogs for a Microsoft Employee.

I kind of Like Load3 (no locking of the file, what and the file can come from any source), but since I did not yet know enough about Purebasic, I figured I would try to get Load2 working.
Most of the interface stuff in Powerbasic was gathered using the Powerbasic com browser, but since Purebasic ...

I have this already working in Powerbasic, but since Powerbasic does not have a x64 version, I wanted to try to get it to work in Purebasic.

It is handy to have an app that tells you the you need to install Dot Net 4.0, or some other required component, instead of just crashing.

It also can be ...

This is my code so far, my goal is to get it to work in x64 but for now in x86 I can get up to loading the dot net assembly and at that point it fails

Interface ICLRMetaHost
QueryInterface(a.l, b.l)
AddRef()
Release()
GetRuntime(a.l, b.l, c.l)
GetVersionFromFile(a.l, b.l, c.l ...

1. Thanks Little John, it did not occur to me to use a different length function for unicode.

2. I find myself changing the ticks to d, as the ticks are now wrong, with q it looked like the number was half the amount required.

#SECONDS_UNTIL_1970_01_01 = 62135596800
#TICKS_PER_SECOND = 10000000 ...

With Int()
i fail
l fail
q fail
f pass
d pass

Here is the list of types tested
i failed
l failed
q failed
f pass
d pass

And as I am relatively New to Purebasic I need to know why?

should not q and d and l output the same result, since they are all 64 bit? Help does not say there is any difference.

Sorry Kiffi but your example is a workaround, and would fail if the same name was used on different path levels.
I am looking to understand why my code, compiled as unicode, fails ...

change
now_pb.i
to
now_pb.d

and it works on x64

Thanks Little John

Now just need to figure out the Unicode problem

Purebasic 4.60 x64 and x86
1. The following code does not work if I compile as Unicode

2. Does anyone have a conversion from Dot Net Ticks to Purebasic DateTime

For convenience the response is hard coded into the sample

Declare.l SplitPath(Array r.s(1), text.s, separator.s = ",")
Declare.s XML ...

Similar, but a pain in the x to use, you have to register a COM object in order to use it. If not registered, then program will crash.

And that is why I came up with the proper way to do it, if it's there then use it, If not ...

If someone can help port this Power Basic code to Pure Basic, then you can call a Dot Net DLL
