Is it PureBasic for me?

[chen]

Hi,

This is my first post in this site, and sorry but I need your help..

Im starting with RealBasic, developing my first commercial aplications, some moments ago looking for RB stuff, appears in my browser a page talking about PureBasic.

I downloaded the demo version and Im impressed with the speed and executables size.

I couldnt find a good manual to understand it globally at first. I dont know if I can use Objects, classes, use inheritance and things like that.

Could I steal some minutes from you and throw on me some light?
I wanted to know what advantages PB has over RB.

I appreciate your time

thanks

You can just use interfaces, no classes. PureBasic is no OOP-language. The manual appears when you press F1 in the Editor.
[EDIT]
And for interfaces you need to code your own constructor, so now "new Blah()"

chen, on the link below you find something of a 'survival guide' for pb

please note that there is quite a major update coming (v4) end this / begin next year

however pb is NOT an object oriented language, some may want it to be, some (like me) don't

i must admit i am beginning to like it more and more
