PureBasic 6.00 released !

[User_Russian]

In this alpha version is the /PREPROCESS command not supported?

Thanks Fed & PureBasic team... Looking forward to the release.

I managed to compile one test program successfully, but now I keep getting the following error message:

Code: Select all

---------------------------
PureBasic
---------------------------
The compiler isn't loaded yet... please try again.
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

Any ideas? I did select the C compiler in the dropdown.

EDIT: Resolved! Entirely my mistake...

I did some short tests... and wow amazing ... Mostly works until now fine with Wine and Linux (ASM and C backend Compiler)

I hope the Linux Version is also soon ready.

C Backend limitations:
- No Label address in datasection (?Label)

Does this render DataSection useless? (how to access data objects in the DataSection without a label?)

[Fred]

It only this syntax:

Code: Select all

Data.i ?Label

Which is not supported

II hope the Linux Version is also soon ready.

Thank you Fred,

so we can start testing the basic functions early (and spezial function).

Many programs have this error when compiling

Code: Select all

purebasic.c:3783:1: warning: implicit declaration of function 'SYS_FastAllocateStringFree4'; did you mean 'SYS_FastAllocateString4'? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]

And this (run with a debugger)

Code: Select all

purebasic.c:21893:2: error: unknown type name 'PUSH'

  PUSH esp

  ^~~~

purebasic.c:21894:2: error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before 'PUSH'

  PUSH dword PM_386

  ^~~~

...

                ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Unfortunately, I have not yet managed to get these errors on simple programs and I cannot post an example code on the forum.

[User_Russian]

Code

Code: Select all

!__attribute__((optimize("-Ofast")))
Procedure t()
EndProcedure
t()

Result

Code: Select all

// Procedure t()
static integer f_t() {
integer r=0;
// EndProcedure
end:
return r;
}
// 
...
...
...
...
// 
void ___chkstk_ms(integer a) { return; }
int __stdcall WinMain(void *instance, void *prevInstance, void *cmdLine, int cmdShow) {
PB_Instance = GetModuleHandleW(0);
PB_MemoryBase = HeapCreate(0,4096,0);
// !__attribute__((optimize("-Ofast")))
__attribute__((optimize("-Ofast")))
// t()
integer rr0=f_t();
SYS_Quit();
}

This does not work. Attribute does not apply to procedure!

I misinterpreted it the same way... but it's actually perfectly described in the text.

Thanx Fred and team.

Well I'm still confused about it - how to access data in DataSection when there's no ?label ?

[StarBootics]

If I understand it correctly, something like this is not supported yet :

Code: Select all

DataSection
   VTable:
      Data.i ?Procedures ; <- This thing here
   Procedures:
      Data.i @Ceci(), @Cela()
  EndDataSection

Why you would like to do that ? I have no idea !

You can still use ?Label to get the address of a label: in a data section.
But you can not use (at the moment) such syntax "?Label" in a data section itself.

Ahh ok thankyou for clarifying, that makes sense. I think I've only used ?Label within a DataSection once anyway (for a jump table, which isn't important), so it seems 99% of my source code that uses DataSection should still work fine - cool! sorry to Fred for my misunderstanding
