Hi there,

The third beta release is available on your online account, it comes with many fixes and we are a looking forward for a great final release ! Don't hesitate to report any bugs and check if fixed bugs are really fixed :). The english doc is now finished, so you can read it for the new commands. More examples have been added as well.

Have fun !

The Fantaisie Software Team.

Great! Thank you!



<-- Happy :D




BTW: What are the two new files "PureBasic.exp" and "PureBasic.lib" for? You'll find them in the PureBasic Homedirectory (C:\Program Files\PureBasic\).
It seems, that PureBasic runs very well without this two new files.

Wonderful!

Just a note on the english doc (and maybe the others being worked on), there is no link to the 'System' library of commands on the 'Reference Manual - Index'. The only way to get there is by searching.

@Fred:

You say:
The english doc is now finished, so you can read it for the new commands.
But I don't see any mention in the F1 help of the new System library.
Also no mention of multicharacter comparisons in StringField().

Great!

But I'm never satisfied, sorry :evil: : if I create a new form with the new FormDesinger, the both procedures InitWindow_0() and Windows_0_Event() will be created. If I now switch to code, I can't insert my source directly. So I have to copy this "form-code" in to a new xy.pb file, to insert the source I like to implement. I'm a little bit lazy, so if I switch to Code I would have different choices:

1. A new file opens with a copy of the form source

2. A new file opens with a copy of the form source plus the following code:

Code: Select all

InitWindow_0()
Repeat 
    Event = WindowEvent() 

    Window_0_Events(Event)
    
 Until Event = #PB_Event_CloseWindow
(if you press the compile/run button, you can directly see what you've produced)

However: if this should already be possible now and I'd not get it - SORRY -

And of course: absolutely great would be a FormDesigner like in VB: so you can change between form and code, enter own code, change to form view, edit form and so on... :wink:

I hope you understand my bad english :oops:

Merci

Cool, thank you! 8)

Fred, maybe you can enable line continuation also for lines that end with "-"?
That would add considerably more flexibility for writing code.

Currently with PB 5.10 Beta 3, the following works fine:

Code: Select all

Debug LongVariableName_01 +
      LongVariableName_02 +
      LongVariableName_03 +
      LongVariableName_04
But if there is subtraction instead of addition at least on one line, we'll get a syntax error:

Code: Select all

Debug LongVariableName_01 +
      LongVariableName_02 -
      LongVariableName_03 +
      LongVariableName_04
Regards, Little John

Big thanks to Fred & co. for this huge update to our favorite language. With b3 it's firming up nicely as usual with most issues gone, including some longstanding ones. Great work!
