A module have protected var-, procnames, like a userlib.
You can export vars, functions and so on.
No more conflicts in includes, if you use module.

Can make a class, very similar to module.
Code: Select all
DeclareClass Test
; Public elements.
Global x.l
Global y.l
Declare Plus()
EndDeclareClass
Class Test
; Private elements.
Global z.l
Procedure Plus()
Result = x + y
z + Result
ProcedureReturn Result
EndProcedure
EndClass
x.Test ; Create an instance of class.
x\x=2
x\y=8
Debug x\Plus() ; Return value 10.

Well, why not? This corresponds to the concept of PB and if Fred and the team will do so, it would be great.
Time is now, programming in style OOP, complicated and confusing.

Because Fred doesn't want to. As sad as this is, it won't happen any time soon.
There haven been discussions about adding OO support for years, the answer has always been the same.
This was the reason I switched to other languages that are more suitable to satisfy my needs.

For this reason, I have moved on to other languages​​,
What if not a secret?

Fred creates a PB, just for yourself?
PB and so is not very popular. Need to listen to the views community, and implement modern features of a programming language.

So we have to listen to you ? Not everybody wants OOP, and PB won't have a OOP built-in, it's a design choice and I have made it clear a lot of time on this forum. If you don't like it, do as Shield did, find a tool which fits your needs better.

Fred, would you consider another language spinoff like PooBasic?

I was half kidding.
The other half was serious. I want to import C++ libs without extern C wrappers.

It should may be possible trough special interfaces, so it doesn't requiers built-in OOP.

Ah, that would be awesome.
The list of C++ libs are growing and not always support extern C.
Forgive my ignorance of features that are OOP limited.
Is the lack of operator and procedure overloading OOP related also?
It is a nuisance to write multiple copies of Procedures just to handle different datatypes.
