...The ability to select the used compiler in the compiler options allows to easily switch between different versions from the same IDE. It also allows to easily build and debug 32bit and 64bit applications from one IDE....

Thank you, PB team!!!

... And happy birthday, Fred!

Thanks for the new beta! Happy birthday Fred, happy birthday Perkin.

Many good things to look over but only a few lines of description.
One question (or group of questions ), what are the details of using Arrays in structures? For instance, can they be dynamic?

I know with some preliminary testing I am experiencing some corruption of structured data accessed via pointers but haven't been able to narrow it down yet. All was well with it in v4.41 though.

The beta 2 is now online, it fixes the major issues encountered in the first beta. Happy testing and thanks all for the kind words !

[Psychophanta]

Thanks a lot!
That's great.

Hello,

again I've compared the compilerfunctions (pb 4.41 -> 4.50) to get a pure list with all / new / removed or changed functions I'd like to share with you: compiler-function-list-text

greetings ~ Vera

What's the difference between beta 1 and 2?

[Fred]

Bug fixes.

Hello,

Very useful Vera, thanks!

Did you write some kind of program to automate this ?


BTW: Happy Birthday Fred and thank you (and all the team) as always.

[GeoTrail]

WHAT? There are bugs in it?
Haven't really found any yet, seems good and solid here
