TailBite 1.0 Preview, soon in PureProject and PureArea

@Polo: Nice Syntax that I too love, but PureBasic doesn't support it. Since TailBite uses PB as a TransCompiler to get the ASM-Source (done with the Compiler switch /Commented) this isn't possible, at least not without precompiling the source, and that would be a heck of a work to be done, IMHO.

That's a good question that I'm asking myself constantly since 5 to 7 days. I hope he's working on version 4.0 or at least that he's making vacations to get new power and insight *sigh*

@Polo: apart from what freedimension says (hi freedimension!), if it worked that way, you wouldn't be able to test your code before making the lib because PB would reject that syntax. What's cool about TailBite is that you can test your PB code just as normal procedures, and when everything works, make a lib with it if you want. You don't even need to comment the test code outside the procedures, it's just ignored by TailBite.

Version: 1.2 Beta 2.0 Date: January 17th 2005

History

Code: Select all

January 17th 2005: 1.2 Beta 2.0
Fixed: source files were not being kept, even when the option was checked. The temporary folder was not being deleted after making the library.

A little bug (see Extract and Help buttons

) :

Just used tailbite, the source are kept only when i tailbite my source using the manager, with Japbe, it doesn't keep the sources

Can someone ask fred if the feature with procedure would be possible to implement ? i would love fred to adds that to purebasic !!

@Polo: can you check, in the 'Configure tools' dialog of the Tools menu of jaPBe, if " /KEEPSRCFILES" is included as argument for TailBite?

TailBite does it automatically, but you must do the changes in TBManager when the IDE (PB's or jaPBe) is NOT running, otherwise the changes will be lost.

Choni, there is a bug

ProcedureDLL Foo(x.l) : ProcedureReturn x : EndProcedure

crashes, the problem is the use of ':'

please put an 'all files' filter when browsing for a PB source, not everyone uses .pb or .desc, gracias

Hi El C

Another wanted feature : I'ld like to include an obj file (created in c or asm) into the purebasic library, would it be possible to add something to do this ? It would be so amazing !!
Imagine you create a function in c, you compile the function in an .obj (or .lib, i don't know if it's possible), then you put it next to the source, and in the source, at the firt line, you put "IncludeOBJ("myobj.obj","myobj_function.def")" (with myobj_function.def a file with a function list, with parameter, etc... which are in the obj), then Tailbite can first check the first lines of the pb source and see if there's the includeOBJ function used, and then if yes, tailbite would add the obj in the library, and add the function listed in the def file in the desc final file ! It would be a REALLY useful function for me !!! it would allow me to do some parts of my library in c, and some in pb !
My way to do this can be done better i'm sure, but i just wonder if it's possible ? it would allow a lot of things in the future !!!
Thx again for tailbite !!!

Sounds reasonable and feasible, I'll try to do it easily, with PB's commands (IncludeBinary...)

Anyway, all my projects are stuck until my brother finds a new home in Madrid; he has taken over my room and my computer, and I won't have access to it for some days.

I'll do all the requested stuff ASAP.

Regards,
