PureBasic 4.40 Beta 3 released

[GeBonet]

Ok, understand...
but you say "PB Doc for AddMapElement wrote... " Where you find the PB Doc
I have just the "Survival Guide" and some sample from the "v440_examples"
Many Thanks for all...

or look here: http://www.purebasic.com/documentation/index.html
... but the online doc maybe not yet updated...

We updated third part libs as well, so if you use SQLite, RegExp, etc. it could explain that.

I noticed that the SQLite lib is at 3.6.14.2 but there have been 4 releases since then, with the latest release (just released Sept 11) at 3.6.18.
Can you update the SQLite lib for PB 4.40 to 3.6.18 please ???
Thanks Fred!

Lovely! Lots of docs for the new stuff and optional number-of-slots parameter is added for the NewMap command. Thanks for this

NewMap Cars.Car()
;
Cars("Ferrari F40")\Weight = 1000
Cars()\Speed = 320
Cars()\Price = 500000

Cars("Lamborghini Gallardo")\Weight = 1200
Cars()\Speed = 340
Cars()\Price = 700000

PureBasic must be selling well, somebody's been looking at catalogues...

Uuuh, there is a severe bug: Porsche is missing on that map!
The new release rocks! Thanks a lot to the PB team.

Normaly, you are right and from many year... But With the news version a Doc it's not update...
Search with [F1] or somthing other for "AddMapElement(Map(), Key$ [, Flags])" or "NewMap" etc...

I tried this new thing, and it simply can [Flag] that I know and my NetMaestro a dimly lit ...
In any case, Thanks

[Flype]

Thank you very much for all the efforts you made since the beginning.
I will test this new beta with quite big programs right now.

[blueznl]

I pretty much skipped 4.40b2 but I'll try this one a bit more extensively...

@pbteam
you might have to prepare a Beta4

Quizz :
what was the max betas record in the past ?

Thought I'd just posted this message but didn't seem to appear so here it is again...

I still can't change the font size on the Mac version - makes the product unusable in my opinion as the font is just too small

Can't you zoom the text using CTRL + MOUSE WHEEL ?
As PB use Scintilla, isn't it a buitin feature on Mac ?

I think it's 14 for PureBasic 4.0... might only be 13, not 100% sure. But it's at least 13.

Why is this still NOT done!?!?!?! It's been posted time after time!!!! I really does irk me, because i use PB on my Mac and the font is awful!

'Flags' is an optional parameter which can be one of the following value:
#PB_Map_ElementCheck : Checks if an element with a same key already exists, and replaces it (default).
#PB_Map_NoElementCheck: No element check, so if a previous element with the same key was already present, it will be lost and couldn't be accessed anymore. Its memory will be only released if ClearMap() is used.

...but they don't seem to be actually included yet I would guess that elementcheck is 0 as it's the default, and noelementcheck 1. I tested it and it seems right, but I wouldn't take my word for anything.

With this version... I have found only for 'Flags' "#PB_Map" with for value #PB_Map=9, but not what for ?
It's not very important... Just wait for

Why is this still NOT done!?!?!?! It's been posted time after time!!!! I really does irk me, because i use PB on my Mac and the font is awful!

Maybe because it is not as simple as you think ?
