What is the point of the 1000th OOP discussion here?
The point of OOP is always a great thing so it is still hot topic for programmer who like to conceive their applications but procedural programming is still nice too
Not all programmer want for procedural programming with their taste to make it.

The point is that it was discussed in the interview, so it's being discussed in a topic.........about the interview.

This is exactly what I would love to see, and something like this is why I asked Fred about it. He said maybe, so I don't expect it soon, but one can dream. Or invent time travel

I know, that's why I linked to Fred's comment back in 2013. He has categorically stated that it's NOT going to happen.

We're breaking him down slowly!
He mentioned procedures in structures.
I wanted overloaded procedures for long time.
DoMathI(), DoMathD(), DoMathF() seems a waste.

So there are still programmer who love OOP that answer your question, sorry

Hi,
Before developing in PureBasic, I used AutoIt, which to my knowledge was not an object-oriented language. However, there was a similar syntax when using COM objects, which was very convenient (
https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/do ... ComRef.htm). Would it be possible to have an equivalent in PureBasic ? Is this OOP ? Sorry if my question is silly.
And thanks for your work.

You can still use VBScript or JScript with ActiveScript for COM objects under PB. But has been cancelled by MS for the future.
However, JavaScript is still supported with the WebViewGadget.
Let's see what comes as a successor to ActiveScript control from MS.

Great Interview, thanks!
Good to see PureBasic is still actively supported, patched and developed.
