Sorry to come back with another possible issue:
This is the default compiler I see in my preferences:

Is this normal? Unless I'm mistaken, It looks like the C compiler is not being used.
To make sure, I've even renamed the gcc folder and my programs still compile fine!

Not sure if there is a real issue or perhaps I've just corrupted my installation and I should start over...

You need to add the c compiler if you want to use it, it's not the default on Windows

It's no problem for me personally, but probably worth a feature request.
From my point of view the c-compilers should be added automatically, it's not very obvious, especially for new users, how to add it

I think it would be great if the IDE searched in the Compilers folder not only pbcompiler, but also pbcompilerc. And automatically added them to the list of compilers, so don't have to manually add pbcompilerc.

I am not a newbie, but I am new to using the C compiler and a week or so back when I went to test some code for PrincieD it took me a while to figure out how to add the C compiler as you do not add it where you think you would. So it took me about 20 minutes of cussing before I figured it out.

Still not sure why that code crashed for me, but ran fine for everybody else. :shock:

Definite +1 from me on that one. Trying to add compilers is a massive pain until you figure out how to do it, and honestly the C compiler is proving itself to be pretty solid. Perhaps don't make it the default, but at least add it to the list.

+1. Good idea. I too was confused as to how to add it.

LOL, I had actually sent a PM to you asking you how to do it, but once I did figure it out, I deleted the PM from my outbox. :mrgreen:

beta 10 is online, with Sonoma support for OS X. The OS X build system has been updated to Sonoma and XCode 15 and the libs patched to work as expected. The C backend compiler is now the default on OS X x64, and 'pbcompilerasm' as an additional compiler as it currently doesn't work with XCode 15 (gathering more info on this, in the meantime you can install XCode 14.3 to use it).

Code: Select all

- Added accessibility option for the IDE (Windows) https://github.com/fantaisie-software/purebasic/pull/251
- Added XCode 15 and Sonoma support to PureBasic OS X.
- C Backend is now the default compiler on OS X x64, so all OS X has the same backend by default.
- Updated doc for German and French.
Bugfixes for this version:This list was created automatically. All updated bug threads from the date of the last final version have been determined.

Very nice and thanks. Less changes looks like we're on the way to the final version.
