Version 5.73
Removed the timestamp and version info in generated headers to make them git-friendly.
Removed ambiguous licensing terms at GitHub (it's MIT).

Thanks for the tip, that sure looks like an elegant solution! Perhaps this was the intended design decision, I wish the manual would mention this trick.

Hi PureBasic Team,

in a DataSection , when IncludeBinary is used, it's not possible to retrieve just how large that binary was.

I know this can be easily solved by manually hardcoding the length of the file into the program or the DataSection , but it would be nice if there was an official way to ...

Version 5.72
Fixed runtime keyword not getting detected properly.

And thank you Eric for providing the fix above, I am glad you like it!

Hello PB Team,

I am using PureBasic 5.71 LTS. It appears that RotateCoordinates' X and Y parameters are completely unresponsive. Here is a modified example from the manual (I input WindowMouseX and WindowMouseY to show that changing the origin does nothing):

If OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 400, 200 ...

Version 5.71
Fixed double colon operator inside procedure arguments OnVstMain(*Effect.Vst2::AEffect).

I have updated the broken links in the first post. The project is now open source on GitHub as well: https://github.com/00laboratories/PBHGEN
It's great to see that this project continues to help a lot people. As always be sure to let me know if there's any new PureBasic syntax that breaks things ...

Hi Tristano, no it uses compiler directives to load the appropriate define lines. It used to make multiple files but that's an old version.

CompilerIf #PB_Compiler_Module = ""
Declare NormalEmptyProcedure()
Declare BracketStuff(String$ = "heh" + Chr(50), Okay.l = 50)
CompilerEndIf
CompilerIf ...

Version 5.42
Added SpiderBasic header generation support.

Hello! I wasn't aware PureBasic 5.41 came out but after reading up and doing some quick tests it doesn't seem like any syntax was changed that would break the parser. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Also I have released the source code here as requested: https://bitbucket.org/Henry00/pbhgen

Hello!

I have added OGRE to my PureBasic project and while I fix bugs I figured I might as well post my findings and solutions here.

In CameraProjectionMode (#PB_Camera_Orthographic) you will find that a plane of say 1024x768 and a screen of 1024x768 isn't displayed correctly:

https://dl ...

ParticleEmitterDirectionX(#ParticleEmitter[, mode])
ParticleEmitterDirectionY(#ParticleEmitter[, mode])
ParticleEmitterDirectionZ(#ParticleEmitter[, mode])
#PB_Absolute: get the absolute 'x' direction vector of the particle emitter in the world (default).
#PB_Relative: get the 'x' direction vector ...

Hello!

I am unable to reproduce this properly in an example script but calling ExamineWorldCollisions () each frame is causing my entities to sleep less and slide / jump more violently. Without a call to this function they just stop and sleep normally as you'd expect. Can anyone confirm this ...

Hello!

Sadly #PB_Entity_DeactivationTime returns Bullet's internal counter of milliseconds (live!) up to around 2000 at which it sets the sleep mode. It's not as the manual states "Time to wait (in milliseconds) before putting the entity in sleep mode when the above conditions are met."
When you ...

Hello,

OGRE supports scanning for material scripts (same as Parse3DScripts()) more often then just once so that you are able to make modifications or add more material scripts when you Add3DArchive. It also supports parsing it from a string and individual files. I could really make use of this as I ...
