Re: polymorphism revisit - 2023
Why on earth are you asking an AI to write code for something you don't understand? How are you supposed to debug it when it doesn't do what you intend? You would be better served learning what polymorphism is and then learning how to implement that in FB.

Re: Library, Project, Example Code Archive
Just to let people know: I have been working on this off and on. I have something that I think would be a good start, but I don't have a place to host it just yet. I recently bought a home and so both my time and money are a bit on the scarce side right now. Once I am in a more stable position, I am...

Re: A replacement for MessageBox.
Well, that was interesting. 608 views and only two members responded; one wanted the source code and the other tried to undermine my efforts on two occasions, having a dig at PowerBASIC on the second occasion. Nothing changes, does it? I was curious to see what you were doing and how it was done. I...

Re: Data Compression Different Methods
@moderators I probably should quit posting about compressing random data before I get permanently banned from the FreeBasic Forum like another member was. Yes? You are not making yourself a public nuisance, posting dubious medical advice, or any of the many other things that went into the other mem...

Re: [offtopic]Some cheap and tiny ARM devices.
I am wearing a PineTime right now. I like it, but it is not so friendly to adding new apps/watch faces yet. Still, at $27, it is a steal.

Re: Icon cache corruption
Every time you post the view count in this thread, you prolong the life of a thread that no one is interacting with because people, myself included, want to see if there is any new real content being posted. At this point, each time you post about view counts it is effectively the same as replying t...

Re: FreeBASIC IDEs/Editors
In that case, I may just fork it. No need to bother you if you don't intend to maintain it.

Re: FreeBASIC IDEs/Editors
I believe the link is the "Cherry" fork. You have to compile it using the Make file. You will also need to modify Make.ini for your own computer's configuration. It's a pity that there is not pre-owned compiled version. I'm confused - I did provide a prebuilt download... Check the release...

Re: Console Input/Output at Console Application
With a console application there is no need to do anything fancy to write to the console.
Code: Select all
Dim a As String
Line Input "Please write something and press ENTER"; a
Print "You wrote : ";a
Sleep

Re: Question on internal workings of Allocate
You shouldn't be mixing Allocate/DeAllocate and New/Delete. If you use Allocate, also use deallocate. If you use New. also use Delete. Allocate allocates memory of the size you request and spits out a pointer. DaAllocate takes a pointer and marks it invalid. It doesn't destroy anything, which is why...

Re: VisualFBEditor - IDE for FreeBasic
I was going to try to compile this on my own to test, but I can't seem to get the knack of it. I will just wait for the next release and let you know how it works out.
