No, you are totally wrong.
4.60 is already a MultiMedia update.
So 4.70 will be a Network update, which allows full access to all network stuff

I wonder, if when we (eventually) get to 4.90, will be version after be 4.100 or 5.00?

None of this.
It will be 4.A0

Network stuff is easy, just use WinSock. But not being able to detect how long a sound sample is, is just... silly. IMHO YMMV etc. etc.
We all have different priorities. But seriously, what are you missing on the network side which would be difficult to program?

WinSock isn't cross-platform, is it?
To many of us, cross-platform support is a key attraction to PureBasic.

Absolutely -- as far as I am concerned.

Yeah, you're right. It isn't. Forgot about that.
Weird though, I think / assume there's socket stuff on Linux as well (in fact, socket stuff originated on Unix, Berkely IIRC). Shouldn't be too hard for Fred & Friends to expand on sockets, I guess...
I dunno, I'm not the expert...

Just did a search and nothing's been flagged as "Fixed" by Fred or Freak since early May so it will still likely be awhile before 4.60 Beta 4 or Final rolls out.
Isn't this typically the time of year when Europeans take long holidays? If anyone deserves a nice long relaxing holiday, it's Fred and Freak!

Bugs get flagged as "Done", not "Fixed". So if you literally searched for "Fixed" then that's why you had no hits.
Microsoft Visual Basic only lasted 7 short years: 1991 to 1998.

They post "Fixed." the bug's thread if a fix was actually made.

I mean the subject of the bug report is marked as [Done]. They also put "Fixed" in the body of the reports. So, we're both right.

That's why i use
BASS . AFAIR you can find a PB wrapper on this forum which still works.

WinSock is based on BSD sockets. If you use BSD socket functions and then add two/three special WinSock calls for your Windows executable, you have fully compatible cross-platform networking.
