Unfortunately gcc doesn't display any update as well on the overall progress, so I don't know if we can display anything more.

That's a shame, maybe gcc could be modded to send back progress?

How about using gcc -v(erbose)? It would also be nice if we could have the compiler + linker + rc + lib to output something in the error log window.Fred wrote: Fri Jul 09, 2021 4:08 pm Unfortunately gcc doesn't display any update as well on the overall progress, so I don't know if we can display anything more.
By replacing the original exe with my own dummy version, calling the original with the verbose switch, I was able to write to the log...
If I recall correctly, the linker outputs a few hundred lines on bigger projects since it displays every lib/obj searchpath. But maybe this could be filtered?!

Why didn't they call Alpha 2 "Alfalfa" ?

Thank you team!!! Looking forward to testing the C Backend!
Work and life have been eventful and I haven't had the time yet
I hope this doesn't prevent IDE Pull Requests

If you want to beta test the next version of PureBasic feel free to download it and test it. Please remember to backup your current PureBasic directory before installing the alpha. Don't use it in production !

Was there a roll back?

Alpha 3 seems to work fine with my 16k+ lines program, which makes use of pretty much every aspect of the PB language. Very good work, Fred.
Question: Could this change eventually result in supporting ARM devices?

Wow!
PCI-Z (~7k LoC) runs smoothly (heavy WinAPI involved) and only gives less than 10% size overhead.
Great work, looking forward seeing "full" version!

Error founded here: viewtopic.php?f=43&t=77590
Edit: There seems to be something wrong with my current configuration ( c:\Users\zikitrake\AppData\Roaming\PureBasic\)
When I rename that folder so that it is created from scratch, the compilation is correct. I will keep disabling things until I find the "error".
I don't know if I have installed PB6 wrong (standard installation of the downloaded setup) or I missed some information about a previous change to make before compiling.
This simple code gives me an invalid memory error (Windows 10 pro 64, user with admin privileges)
(C Backend)
I'm sorry if this has already been discussed, I've searched for some information but didn't find anything.
PS: I didn't want to put it in the bugs area because I guess it's for another reason

The code below compiles and executes error free using 5.73 64-bit.
6.00 Alpha 3 stops compiling at the AddKeyboardShortcut statement reporting a window not initialised error.
If I change the variable W.l to W.i, then it compiles and runs correctly.
The value of w returned in the two versions of PB is very different. The PB6 value is much larger and if type l (long int), goes negative.
I am not sure if this is a bug or a change. It feels like a change. Is it?
Code: Select all
w.l=OpenWindow(#PB_Any,#PB_Ignore,#PB_Ignore,640,480,"Test",#PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered)
AddKeyboardShortcut(w,#PB_Shortcut_Escape,#ESC)
Repeat
Until WaitWindowEvent()=#PB_Event_CloseWindow

as far as i know: Handles in PB are *ALWAYS* in Integer. so ".l" is not correct and when it work, it is pure luck.
Re: PureBasic 6.00 Alpha 3 released !

I understand about handles and types. However, my example highlights what might be a significant difference in the new PB6. I use the Printer_Lib library by ABBKlaus and Pure_PDF by Thorsten1867. Both of these compile perfectly in the 32 and 64-bit versions of PureBasic 5.73, but generate errors in 6.00 alpha2 and 3. I've been trying to go through them to correct but it is a big detective job. They both use .l types a lot instead of .i. My point is that the size and range of the values returned by OpenWindow(#PB_Any and other functions are hugely different for the two 64-bit compiler versions.
