Syntactic sugar for creating arrays with values.

Fast String lib.
Unsigned integers for compatibility with C libs.
More C switches exposed for compilation step.
Formal standard libs, maybe open source?
math.pbi, mail.pbi, complex.pbi, certs.pbi, network.pbi, etc.

full exposure of miniaudio-functions!
native QOA and QOI-implementations (may be easy, as infratec already posted the appropriate code...)

I would like OOP.
Or a simplified variant with procedures inside structures.

Me I would like for adding ImageMagick (https://imagemagick.org) to the library. It is a lib of really science for digital images or even video editing

Oh yes, ImageMagick and unsigned integers would be lit.

1) Procedures returns Structures too (e.g. as pointers)
2) C casting for structure pointers

What do you mean by that?

bad example:
Code: Select all
Structure Whatever
a.l
b.l[2] ; Static array (Standard C) with 2 values b[0] and b[1], not resizable
Array c.l(3,3) ; Dynamic array with 16 values c(0,0) to c(3,3), resizable with ReDim()
EndStructure
MyVar.Whatever
MyVar\a = 5
MyVar\b[0] = 1
MyVar\b[1] = 2
MyVar\c(3,3) = 33
Procedure.@Whatever MyProcedure(*blahblah.Whatever)
Static retValue.Whatever
retValue\a = *blahblah\a + 5
retValue\b[0] = *blahblah\b[0] + 1
retValue\b[1]= *blahblah\b[1] = 2
retValue\c(1,1) = *blahblah\c(3,3) + 33
ProcedureReturn @retValue
EndProcedure
MyVars.@Whatever = MyProcedure(@MyVar)
Debug MyVars\a
Debug MyVars\b[0]
Debug MyVars\b[1]
Debug MyVars\c(1,1)

Hi, i think this will be nice for 3D system.
Code: Select all
mygroup=createEntityGroup(#pb_any) ;create new group.
addEntityGroup(mygroup,entity1) ;add entity to the group.
removeItemGroup(mygroup,entity1) ;remove entity from the group.
removeEntityGroup(mygroup) ;remove the group.
HideGroup(mygroup,1)
