Hi all,
Since C Bakend is here so please make a C++ Backend for Purebasic too ! It will be nice to integrate it and more possibility of course
Not necessarily in OOP for Purebasic but just C++ backend that means it is expanding more ways
Hope not complainer here

Why, the C backend so far does not make it much more easy to interface with existing C code.
There are so many useful libraries out there in C but you cant use any unless you invest a huge amount on time.
Also the main reason why PB will continue to be a niche language.
C++ will never happen.

It doesn't make any sens to use g++ for backend, the fact we use a C compiler is only to have a portable code generator, not to allow using C code in PureBasic.

Dear Fred,
please add a washing machine to PureBasic, so that I can use it for washing my trousers!

it is impossible ...
At least we have C backend, that is a great feature, thx !

It's always good to have suggestions and new ideas. No complaints here.
Don't mind the scoffers, though.
