Hi all,

Just to let you know that I have just released df_lib V1.0, a library that adds LSL() and LSR() commands to PureBasic.

It can be downloaded from:

http://www.dreamlandfantasy.clubamiga.c ... df_lib.lzx

Kind regards,

Francis.

If LSL and LSR stand for Logical Shift Left/Right, this is achieved in PB for Windows (and I guess for Linux, too) by using inline asm:

Code: Select all

shl a, 1 ; Logical shift left of the variable a by 1
shr a, 1 ; the same, but right

But maybe the library does anything different.

Bye,

Hey, what do you know, the > operands work! It would have been nice if they were in the PureBasic instructions.

The library was originally written to see how easy it was to incorporate new commands into PureBasic (Amiga version). Incidentally, it has been updated to V1.2 and features more commands such as rotation left/right, arithmetic shifts and some timer functions.

Kind regards,

Francis.

Yeah, I didn't know about that either. But then the PB ref. manual doesn't even mention what operators you can use :/
I expect someone will say there's a power-of operator next
