I would like something like this,
Code: Select all
Structure <struct_name>
Var1
Var2
AnotherStruct
EndStructure
instance.struct_name = New struct_name
Delete instance
Delete struct_name
Insert
InsertAfter
InsertBefore
FirstStruct
NextStruct
LastStruct
(and more)
For instance.struct_name = Each struct_name
Next
While instance.struct_name
Wend
Repeat
Until instance.struct_name = LastStruct

A linkedlist of <struct_name> using NewList, or use pointers and allocate the memory for the struct.

Ah, that sounds a lot like Blitz. I agree, I think this would be nicer than the current linked list system
Edit: I think this code, though...
Code: Select all
Repeat
Until instance.struct_name = LastStruct
would need to be changed to 'LastStruct.struct_name', so it knows which one you're talking about...

Yeah - it's "Blitz Style"...
But it is really usefull...
Code: Select all
Until instance.struct_name = LastStruct.struct_name
Well, do you need this? You can pick the struct_name from the left side - couldn't you?

or - why not go all the way...
Code: Select all
Class <class_name>
Protected var1
Public var2
Public struct1
Procedure1
Procedure2
EndClass

Well, no, but I'm sure this is easier to program (into PB itself)
Good idea about the protected/public members, too

Yeah - what can I say...
BlitzMax is scheduled to Mars and it will be all object oriented... I would love to see Pure give it a real fight!
I like Blitz but I like Pure more!

No, no - don't take me... :roll:
This is way of topic, but...
What I heard from the Blitz Community and the Blitz Forum... Is the scheduled release date Mars 11 2004. I don't know if it is a rumor or true... I read it in several places...

Well, if pure has all these features that have been asked around on the forum (especially this one and the dynamic pointer one), I'm sure it'll give BMax some good competition
