Hi Fred and PB-Team!
As we all know, the lib format in v4 will completly changed and libs with the old lib format will no longer work in future versions, right?
Can you give us any extended info whats new or what will be changed on the new lib format (to see the good part) and maybe some words about the reason to change the libformat in v4?
would be nice and surely very informative for some people here (public relation work
... thanks in advance!

Who said it will 'completely change' ? I said 'it will slighty change' mostly to support the new available types and a few other goodies. Old libs will still be accepted, but all the one which rely on string, array and newlist manipulations will need to be adjusted.

Fred, are you going to make support in 4.0 for C LIBs???
I mean another LIB format, would it be compatible with 4.0?
Also, is there a chance for us to see some pictures of the long awaited super program? (PureBasic 4.0)??

As designer of the cover for PureBasic 4.0, I think I can show you a screenshot. It's actually me, showing a convincing happy face when using PB 4.0 for the first time.

You have a natural hand for drawing!
That's for sure!
I can only say this : keep your talent to coding...

@El_Choni: With what program did you draw it? I think it could be Adobe PhotoShop and Maya(for the Models shown there).
ts-soft posted the PureBasic 4.0 Sourcecode in the german forums:
Code: Select all
OpenConsole()
ConsoleTitle("C:\Programme\PureBasic\Compilers")
PrintN("")
PrintN("")
PrintN("************************************************")
PrintN("PureBasic v4.01 Beta 1 <Windows - x86>")
PrintN("************************************************")
PrintN("")
PrintN("Compiling C:\Programme\PureBasic\Examples\Doubles.pb")
PrintN("Loading external libraries...")
PrintN("Starting compilation...")
PrintN("38 lines processed")
PrintN("Creating executable.")
PrintN("")
PrintN("- Feel the ..PuRe.. Power -")
PrintN("")
Print("C:\Programme\PureBasic\Compilers ")
Input()
CloseConsole()

Too funny!
PS:
My spy stole some early PureBasic v4 test code - here's a peek preview of the syntax:
Code: Select all
#include <iostream.h>
main()
{
cout << "Hello World!";
return 0;
}

very interesting dare.... I guess the language will be called "PureC-sic" (Sea sick for those who don't get my crappy joke):)

Wait, Kale, isn't that a normal look after some insanely hard to track down coding error? Or, is that just the look I have alone.
