PureBasic Forums - English

I just want to say that I'm really happy with the current state of Purebasic (PB 6.11 LTS B3). My biggest project had some problems with compiling during the early versions of the C compiler, but it compiles without a hitch the past few versions and everything works as expected as far as I can tell ...

It looks like it was caused by a driver (vjoy) not playing nicely with purebasic. I uninstalled it and the memory leak is gone. I guess this thread can be removed.

According to the manual InitJoystick() can be called repeatedly to count the number of joysticks connected, but every time this function is called some memory is leaked.

You can test it by running the following code and looking at the task manager:

Repeat
InitJoystick()
Forever

Alpha 3 seems to work fine with my 16k+ lines program, which makes use of pretty much every aspect of the PB language. Very good work, Fred.

Question: Could this change eventually result in supporting ARM devices?

Good work. Any chance for ogre terrain paging in a future update?

Hello. Is it possible to clear all webgadget cookies / persistent data without running InetCpl.cpl?

Thanks

Thanks for the response. My project uses commate plus, so I would like to use that instead of another library, if possible.

Is it possible to simulate a keypress in an input DOM element in the webgadget? If so, can someone do me a favor and share some example code?

Thank you.

Thanks for the update! I was really hoping to see Ogre 1.9 features. Is there any plans for that in a future version?

I'm looking forward to some of these new features being implemented in a future version of PB. The terrain features in particular.

Unfortunately not. We can render large terrain, but there's no support for paging it. I believe this is a limitation of Ogre which is supposed to be addressed in Ogre 1.9.

The default font size is too big for the 20x16 image. So load a a smaller font, ie:


nWidth=16:nHeight=16:nTemp.f=99.9
LoadFont(0,"Arial",8)
hImage = CreateImage(#PB_Any, nWidth + 4, nHeight, 32, RGB(212,208,200))
If StartDrawing(ImageOutput(hImage))
DrawingFont(FontID(0))
;DrawingMode(#PB ...

FlipBuffers() blocks to wait for a vblank if vsync is enabled. I'm not sure what you're getting at here when it comes to your FPS counter.

Is there a difference between frames per second and frame rate?
They both mean the same thing


What exactly is tick counting and how to do you effectively utilize it?

In this case the 'tick' structure fields seems to not be used. But a tick represents an iteration of a timer. The amount of ...

A recently added feature in the 3d engine is that we can now render very large terrain, but I can't seem to find a way to actually load large terrain without running out of memory and crashing. Is there a way to page the terrain in and out of memory that I'm missing?

Thanks!
