Hi Gnozal,

With lasts updates I get a message, a COMPILATION ERROR:

It says: "Could not compile form!", "Error: Line 9 -Bad parameter tupe, number expected instead of string".

Why?
Now with your update with Help, help file is showed and it flashes as it is refreshing all the time. Program doesn't find the preferences file and it's impossible work.

Can you help me please? I have reinstalled the PB and the PureForm w/o success. I don't know what can I do.

My OS is Spanish XP.[/img]

Why?

You are probably generating code for the wrong PB version, i.e. generating code for PB3.94 and trying to compile it with PB4.02.
Check 'Generate PB4 code' in setup.
If this is not the case, please post your form (use Edit -> Copy project to clipboard and paste it in your post between code tags)

Can't reproduce. What are the steps to get this ?

Can't reproduce this. Seems to work here : PureFORM loads and saves it's ini file correctly.

Hello gnozal,

after enabling syntax coloring for code view in the preferences-dialog, PureFORM crashes with the following message:

Code: Select all

---------------------------
[ERROR]
---------------------------
PureFORM has crashed [Error = C0000005]
'An attemped read or write to/from an address to which that process isn't allowed'
Module : C:\PureBasic394\Program\PureFORM_New.pb ; Line : 3129
The current project may be saved as [myProjectPath]\purebasic\pureformtest\CRASH[20070215-164059]pureformtest.pbf

Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden. (means: file not found)

Greetings ... Kiffi

Thanks for the report.
Sadly, I cannot reproduce it (even with a fresh installation). Looks like some scintilla function was called even though scintilla wasn't initialized.
Anyway, I have uploaded a new version ; does it fix the crash ?
If not, could you please post the steps necessary to produce the error ?
Thanks.

I think, the crash is a result of reading an invalid registry entry. Perhaps i've
started PB3.94 earlier to test 'old' code. The bug doesn't appear, when the
PB-IDE4 was opened before starting PureFORM. (ts-soft gave me this hint).

Hi,

The problem is starting PureForm, I can not do anything, program start, show all the windows and help and then it is refreshing all the time. If I try to close the help, automatically opens again, getting the focus so I can not do anything.

My PB is 4.02 and I have done a new installation in another PC with the same result. I don't know what can I do.

Can you send me an INI file?

Thanks for your help.

Weird ! It's like your F1 key is pressed all the time ?!

Update

Changes :
- fixed a bug in code translation feature when #PB_Any was used in source code

Hi Gnozal,

Thanks for your new update, but I am not lucky.

Program starts, show Help, a messagebox saying:
"Compiler Version Mismatch!

PBCompiler reports version 4.02
Code Generation is for PB 3.94

Please correct your settings"

Click on accept and again this messagebox is showed. Then I close it and show the help file, close it and again splash...

Please help me.

I have installed on a "clean PC" in c:\Purebasic and all was OK but with c:\Archivos de Programa (in my notebook) not run OK.

Thanks.

Hi again
I have changed the line:

"FORM_IsPBVer4 = 0"

in your INI to

"FORM_IsPBVer4 = 1"

and messagebox with warning doesn't appear but the help files yes, it's impossible to close because all the time it's opened and go to Introduction, it's like F1 it's clicked all the time yes.

Thanks for your support.

Then I compile project with imagegadget last version give err:
It's use by default my temp dir

Code: Select all

DataSection ;>
  Image_ImageGadget_4:
 ; ORIGINAL FILE NOT FOUND : ""
  IncludeBinary "C:\DOCUME~1\MYDIR~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\_tc\PureBasic\Examples\Sources\Data\PureBasic.bmp"
EndDataSection ;<

This means that there is no image specified for ImageGadget_4 (null string), so PureFORM replaces it in the generated code with a bitmap from the standard Purebasic installation.
If you have specified an image for the ImageGadget and still get this problem, please post your project (Edit -> Copy project to clipboard ; Paste into your post between code tags).

Note that you don't have to change the ini file.
You can use :
Menu 'Setup' ->'Generate PB4 code'
or
Menu 'Setup' -> 'Preferences' -> 'Code' tab -> 'Generate PB4 compatible code'

Sorry, I really can't reproduce this problem. The help file is only displayed if the F1 key is pressed, so I don't understand why this happens ... Try to rename the help file, so it cannot be opened anymore. I will see if I can change anything.
