+1 for the IDE too, but I don't see myself writing one. I'd rather spend the time figuring out how to implement support for PureBasic into Eclipse or NetBeans.

Something like VB offered since years - databound gadgets and controls.

This feature was for sure (IMHO) one of the reasons for success of VB...

Just think about the new potential user group - all those folks who have knowledge about a business solution, but don't want to deal with memory handling and other low level details....

Just a vision - but sooner or later (most likely later...)......

Maybe your combined project should be integrating them with PB

Do you have any working example?

...Google PyQT, PyS60 and PyMaemo if it sounds interesting.
...Google pyxpcomext.

import audio
sound = audio.Sound.open("E:\\Sounds\\howcool.mp3")
sound.play()

import camera
photo = camera.take_photo()
photo.save("E:\\Images\\howcool.jpg")

import messaging
nbr = "123456"
txt = u"Hello Thanos" # the u before the string just means unicode
messaging.sms_send(nbr, txt)

To play an audio track:

Code: Select all

import audio
sound = audio.Sound.open("E:\\Sounds\\howcool.mp3")
sound.play()

or to fire the camera and save the result as an image:

Code: Select all

import camera
photo = camera.take_photo()
photo.save("E:\\Images\\howcool.jpg")

or to send a text:

Code: Select all

import messaging
nbr = "123456"
txt = u"Hello Thanos" # the u before the string just means unicode
messaging.sms_send(nbr, txt)

You can access your phones contacts database, inbox, calendar, camera, mp3 player, GPS, Bluetooth, info about what gsm cell you're in, etc, etc...

The compiler would just be an academical project. (no need to worry Fred )

Why not just learn proper C or C++ instead?
