Erm, on the hard drive of one of my computers

Doesn't work for me... I get this error when trying to compile a test app:

<i>The file 'Files\0-PureBasic\0-MyApps\Test\Test.exe' isn't found [...]</i>

Seems like it's missing the leading <b>E:\Program</b> of the path...

I'll take a look at it today....

Edit: New version available, problem should be fixed

Okay, now it compiles but stops with a message box saying <i>
14/09/03 10:25:44 Compiling</i>.
In the listview, there is a red cross saying <i>Compile Failed</i>.
However, I can run the compiled app, but there's no version info,
even though I enabled that option.

Also, when saving a PPBuild project, there's no *.pbb extension added,
which means I can't open them from within PPBuild unless I add the
extension first.

If this doesn't make sense, I aplogise in advance, I've been drinking tonight

For the version info insertion to work, you must tell the compiler to include an Icon file,
or else no resources exist in the exe, so the version info fails.
I should have mentioned something about that in the docs,
can't remember if I did.

I'll recode the save project function so that it checks if the file has a
.pbb extension and appends it if not.

It does include an icon.

Just to check: when you say "version info", do you mean if I right-click
the compiled exe and select "Properties" that there should be a "Version"
tab with the version info under it? That's what I'm expecting?

That's what I mean, yes. It looks like a bug and I need to look at it a bit closer in the morning when I'm more lucid and less innebriated
Out of interest, what OS are you using?

No worries -- enjoy yourself for now!

> Out of interest, what OS are you using?

Windows 2000 Pro, with Service Pack 4.

Also, just noticed that the "About" menu item doesn't work.

@PB

Try as I might I cannot seem to reproduce the error on my win2k system, could you provide me with some steps to get the error to appear?
