Missing a solution to change 'temporary' the pointer value:
I get a syntax error message with this one:
@Fred,
Please let it working (it is very important for using pointers)
Or give me the correct syntax

Ther are many solutions. This one could help, i hope:
Code: Select all
*p.struc
*temp.struc=*p+SizeOf(struc)*1
*temp\v

Sorry, that is not a solution!
That's only a workaround.
A solution don't need a second variable!

Of course
PB is much more complex than C if the user wants, and much more easy than C if the user wants. That's the power.

But this is a bottleneck.
@Fred,
I hope you add this very early.
Maybe it works if you change the syntax check only?

Code: Select all
PeekB(*p+1) ; Or use whatever type you have there

Ok, one more workaround.
It is not so fast as a directly pointer access is.
I hope the PB-Team adds this feature on the first 'PB Servicepack 1'.

As fr34k says, it's not C, and we don't plan to introduce a weird syntax for this kind of stuff.

Come one @fred,
It is not weird. It is fast
Look this is not weird:
But you say this is weird (I using another sytax here)
Why?

Because '1' isn't a variable so you can't acces its field
. If it's only a speed matter, we can still put PeekX() in the compiler it self to avoid an extra call..
