How?

what functions do you need?

I need a function like InterlockedIncrement.

I thought about this for awhile as it would be nice to still be able to use intel asm from the c backend
and while the demo isn't particularly useful it wouldn't be to hard to turn into a compiler tool so it generates a data section and loads it.

If you use ASM code in C-Backend, you have problems at the latest if you want to run the code on a machine with ARM (Raspberry, Window for ARM) or M1 (macOS).

So I never become ASM in C-backend.


You are absolutely right, but unfortunately I need to generate an atomic variable to optimize a ...

Thanks Jack! Your examples have been really helpful for understanding how to insert inline assembly code, which I couldn’t find in the PureBasic manual. I have one last question: could you point me to some tutorials or books on assembly that support this syntax (AT&T, if I understood correctly)?

With the asm{} keyword? Could you also provide a simple example?
Thanks.

I don't have experience with assembly programming, but after testing various examples, I noticed that they only work if the C backend is not used.
I was wondering if it is currently possible to use inline assembly with the C backend, and if so, how?

Thanks

you can do it this way....

Procedure DisableWindowSizing(hWnd, State)
Protected currStyle

currStyle = GetWindowLongPtr_(hwnd, #GWL_STYLE)

How about this one?

Hi,
The purpose of this procedure is to resize the console window and its buffer.
Unfortunately, I keep getting error 87 ("The parameter is incorrect.").
What am I doing wrong? :?

Thanks

I’ve found a fix for the “problem” related to ImageGadget when the DPI aware option is enabled in the compiler settings. NetMaestro provided the solution, and you can find it here: https://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtopic.php?t=82172.

Thanks to all for the help!

I ran your program:

#Image_0 = 1

CreateImage(#Image_0,600,270)
OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 480, 329, "", #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_TitleBar | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered)
CreateMenu(0,WindowID(0))
MenuTitle("Test")
SetWindowColor(0, RGB(0,255,0))
