Re: WinFBE Editor and FreeBASIC Compiler (All-in-One Package) (V3.1.0 June 4, 2023)

I have a small request. We are all getting older and I know my eyes are not what they were when I was younger. I increased the type size in the main editing window (thank you for that option). However, I would like to have all the windows like the compiler results window and the compiler log file al...

Re: Latest Bass Library and MP3 files

Thank you for your information. But I am not familiar with windows programming. I use GTK and for GUI programming. I am looking for a library I can just drop in as a replacement for Bass which does not seem to be working for me. And not making major changes to the rest of the program. Thank you all ...

Re: Latest Bass Library and MP3 files

Since I cannot play my library of MP3s with Bass and Fmod is 32-bit only, does anyone know of a 64-bit Freebasic package that can play MP3s and read the MP3 tags?

Thank you

Re: FreeBASIC 1.10.1 Release Discussion

Thank you for the new version. However, the change log indicates that bass.bi was updated. I tried it. Some symbols in 2.24.17 (the latest version of bass) were not defined in 1.10.1 bass.bi. I noticed that the following in 2.24.17 bass,h #define BASS_TAG_ID3V2_2 17 // ID3v2 tags (2nd block) : varia...

Latest Bass Library and MP3 files

I just started a new project and tried to play an MP3 file and got BASS_ERROR_FILEFORM. Tried a different music file type (MO3) and it works just fine. I have also tried numerous other MP3 files with the same results. Got the latest BASS.dll from its website just this morning. I run an up-to-date Wi...

Re: read cdrom toc and query freedb

Any chance this program is still available? I so what version of FB did you use to compile/run it?

Thanks

Re: I need a workaround for a DIR problem

No, I do not want to change my program to handle w-strings or work with different code pages. I should not have to. Dir should work as advertised. Give me the OS name of the files I requested. Will the FB command "Kill filename" work with the modified filename? Well, I know from spending s...

Re: I need a workaround for a DIR problem

Where would I find findfirstfile/findnextfile ? And yes it could be a Unicode character mixed in with the filename. I got this file from a friend in Europe and English is not his first language. I looked at the characters in the filename and it was an embedded zero byte in the middle of the filename.

I need a workaround for a DIR problem

I have started to get a bunch of files from a program that gets them from the internet whose filename I want to change to match my naming system. Numerous files have weird characters for example a zero byte in the middle of the filename. It seems that Windows 10 (Up to date) allows this other progra...

Re: Question on internal workings of Allocate

Sorry, I meant Deallocate not Delete. I am just wondering since when you call Deallocate, you only indicate the start of the block of memory to return to the system. I figured the system would need to know the amount of memory to return so it must be stored somewhere. Therefore subsequent to the All...
