Wrapping 4.0 Commands into 3.94
Wrapping 4.0 Commands into 3.94
We all know that it's illegal o directly wrap PB Commads in a dll to use in a different language, but as now Fred stated that 4.0 will have a different library Format, and we need Libraries from 3.94 but want to use 4.0 functionallity within our app, are we allowed to wrap the new PB Commands into a DLL and use it with software compiled with PB 3.94 as it isn't exactly a different language?

Because my project needs the XML Lib ^^
But maybe this will also be converted
Yeah I think it's good that it's illegal to wrap Purebasic commands I only thought it could be something else if you only use it in a PB Project (an older^^)

are there any plans to update tailbite to be compatible with 4.0?
or will 4.0 include NATIVE ability to take PB code and generate a PB library?
some of us have written fairly complex and time consuming libraries. i have kept all my sources VERY safe. i guess if need be i can compile the sources to a DLL, keep the LIB generated, and statically link it to my 4.0 exe if i HAVE to.
what say you Fred? is it going to be a nightmare to reconfigure our libs for 4.0?
im interested because i plan on selling my first commercial app soon, to get some extra $$ to get rid of my piece of crap car, and for a down payment on a house.
im going to apply for a federal small business grant, so id like to get a general idea of how drastic the change is going to be of the lib use.
should i hold off on writing the app until 4.0, because it will include ALOT of what ive written already.

Old bugs good, new bugs bad! Updates are evil: might fix old bugs and introduce no new ones.
