For upgrading, there is no way to "recompress" old compressed files -- so to upgrade an application using it, it would require you to write a program in pre-5.1 to decompress all data files and then in 5.1 compress them. Adds a layer of complication...
It would be nice to have at least decompress available.
Why was it dropped?
There is a way, use this code to decompress:

It's even up to 20% faster than the PB integrated decompressor.

Any licensing issues if someone would post JCALG1 specification or sources for fully implementing it without PureBasic internal support? I did see mentioning that unpacking might be included later.

Many thanks Fred.
This new feature has already allowed us to remove hundreds of lines of messy code from our applications.
We no longer need to simulate events, so inter-class communication has suddenly become a non-issue.

Attention!
With PB 5.10 #PB_Integer <> #PB_Long on x86 and #PB_Integer <> #PB_Quad on x64!
So update your code if there is something like:
Code: Select all
CompilerSelect #PB_Integer
CompilerCase #PB_Long
CompilerCase #PB_Quad
CompilerEndSelect

Awesome update!
Think about it:
A programming language which is affordable, supports Unicode out of the box without hassle, compiles to small and native binaries, is able to do GUI and Games, connects to databases, has built in network support, .... and has a slick IDE with included FormDesigner. Come on! As soon as Code Editor and Form Designer work together more closely, make some advertisements on the internet and ALL the Delphi and VB6 programmers will come to us. Ergo: World Domination!
Congratulations PB-Dev-Team.
Thank you and merry Xmas!

JCALG1 support has been dropped.
- Removed: DirectX7 and NT4 subsystem on Windows
Very bizarre to remove DX7 when may low end GPU chips will not properly support DX9, but will still support DX7 very well. You have just introduced massive compatibility issues for PB users by doing this.

hmmmm,
Release Date of DirectX 9.0 was December 19, 2002 !
10 years after... ok, longer than MS supported their most OS's ...
