@Fred: if you would like to use StartSSL Code Signing certificates to also sign the Windows binaries, I would really love to contribute to the 59,90$ validation fee per year.

Linux Mint here.

Updated from beta 3 to beta 5 ; overwritten all files -> PB doesn't launch anymore. I see the window for a very brief moment and it closes instantly.

checkinstall.sh says it's all fine.

Error (terminal) : ***Error in './compilers/purebasic': free(): invalid pointer : 0x0000000000444eca *** Segmentation fault

Now as my biggest PB project is running for the first time without issues after b1 ... b4 :D I dare ask this question:
Do I understand right that the WebGadget (Windows) cannot support the Edge Browser emulation in Windows 10 because Microsoft does not provide an ActiveX control for this any more?
Setting the Registry Key FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION to 11001 is not an option beause you cannot make an Edge Browser out of Internet Explorer 11. All the HTML 5 features now finally introduced in the Edge Browser (like live webaudio streaming) are not supported by Internet Explorer 11.

Fred,

I'm using OS X 10.95 and PB 5.40b5 and I've got 'Mac App Store and identified developers' checked and I get a warning and the option to open the program.

Sound like that is what you were expecting.

OK, the quick fix was half baked, so hopefully beta 6 will solve it completely. Happy testing !

Yeaahhh, Linux version works again! :) And the toolbar is fixed, and everything is good in the world !

EDIT : but I now have some invalid memory access errors when StopDrawing() a sprite (apparently it only gives an error with sprites).

Lots of cool stuff in this release, especially SSL support.

I hope the team does something like a one-year feature-freeze and does nothing but bug fixes after all these additions.

EDIT: By the way don't see the need for NT code signing in the IDE. There are official CLI tools that work just fine on PB/FASM binaries already..

Thx Fred and team. Beta 6 is now compiling my 5.31 project flawlessly again. API strings are working like before ;)

Would you be OK with a 2-year feature freeze timeframe with bugfixing active for the duration? PureBasic v5.40 is an LTS version: http://www.purebasic.fr/blog/?p=437

In PB 5.40 beta 6, neither the documentation of MemoryStringLength() nor the documentation of PeekS() does mention this new flag.
Please don't forget to add this information to the Reference Manual. :-)

That'd be nice. I don't really see what else could be added except platform support and maybe some asymetric cipher support at this point. Fast CGI, SHA-3, and TLS support pretty much puts this past potential competition and there isn't really anything PB can't do anymore.

Am I the only one having Invalid memory access errors when trying to StopDrawing() a sprite ? (Linux Mint)

Code: Select all

Procedure DrawMouse()
  CreateSprite(0, 5, 5)
  StartDrawing(SpriteOutput(0))
  Box(0, 0, 5, 5, RGB(255,0,0))
  StopDrawing()
EndProcedure


InitSprite() : InitKeyboard() : InitMouse()

OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 1920, 1080, "")
OpenWindowedScreen(WindowID(0), 0, 0, 1920, 1080)

DrawMouse()

Repeat

  While WindowEvent() : Wend
  
  ExamineMouse() : ExamineKeyboard()
  
  ClearScreen(0)
  
  FlipBuffers()
  
Until KeyboardReleased(#PB_Key_Escape)

on Windows the debugger stop the program on Line 2
"OpenScreen() or OpenWindowedScreen() must be called before using any Sprite commands"

When i move the "DrawMouse()"-call direct under OpenWindowedScreen() it worked, but than it stop in Line 23 "KeyboardReleased(): ExamineKeyboard() must be successfully called before using this command".

After adding at line 22 ExamineKeyboard() it works here.

Oops, don't know why I removed some lines... I've edited the code on the previous post, and this one still does not work (same error).
