In all C++ wrappers I wrote for FreeBASIC in the past I was running in to the same problem. Here are how I convert C++ enums (all 32.bit) to FreeBASIC. Joshy type eShapes as long const as eShape ShapeCircle = 1 const as eShape ShapeSquare = 2 const as eShape ShapeTriangle = 3 Type Block As eShapes S...

In 3D the white lines (2D from top) are faces so you need a 3D segemt face intersection or 3D ray triangle intersection !

In original BASIC the FOR counter var was a local or global var and accessible inside of the loop. In the early days no EXIT FOR command exists. 10 FOR I% = 0 to 15 STEP 2 20 IF (I% AND 4) THEN GOTO 40 REM a kind of 'CONTINUE' 30 IF (I% = 6) THEN I% = 15 REM a kind of 'EXIT FOR' 40 NEXT I% Looks lik...

AVR = ATMEL now MICROCHIP has nothing to do with retro computing ;-)

If you receive data over TCP often you don't know it's size (including any header stuff). On hardware level some devices works faster with large data chunks of 32K blocks others with 8K ! With other words the device knows if any data but not it's size ! declare function CanGet() as integer O...

The MOTOROLA 6803 emulator execute the TSR-80 MC-10 BASIC ROM, simple video output and keyboard input. The MOS 6510 emulator executes the C64 BASIC ROM, simple video output and keyboard input.

Last 2 month I enjoy my new "old" retro hobby :-) First I wrote an 65xx 680x and Z80 disassembler,assembler and emulator in FreeBASIC. But with my Z80 emulator I run in to an strange problem and after more then 50,000 debugging steps I don't found the source of trouble. (May be I set wrong...

@RNBW good job so far.
I know how many work it was.

In scope of "RETRO" BASIC the "free" QBASIC version shipped with DOS was an slow BASIC interpreter. On a 80386SL 20 MHz PSET() was one of the slowest command at all. The trick was to use DEF SEG instead of the missing pointer arithmetic. SCR% = SCR% + 20 moved the "pixel poi...

In the early 90th if I saw an idle PC with QBASIC, in any shopping mall I typed and execute one simple line of BASIC It was fun to see how some peoples react. Joshy SCREEN 13: SCR% = &HA000: FOR Y% = 0 TO 199: DEF SEG = SCR%: FOR x% = 0 TO 319: POKE x%, x% AND 127 * Y% AND 127: NEXT: SCR% = SCR%...

"All roads lead to Rome" but some are shorter as the others :-) Sorry if this code does not meets your needs ! It's only for fun. Joshy type FBFont as long w,h as ubyte ptr b end type extern GFXFonts(2) alias "__fb_font" as FBFont enum : FONT_8, FONT_14, FONT_16 : end enum sub In...

Why not using the FreeBASIC JSON library ?

@badidea again thank you

Joshy

Thank you I know how to define a GUID but looks like since any update the include files changed !
