I really like this project, reminds me of VB6 / RapidQ for which there is a TON of source code. Sorry if asked before, when I load VisualFBEditor the compiler is auto set to d:\..... is there a way for your app to auto search for common FB compiler paths at runtime? We can do that too. Done: https:...

What is TwinBasic? Is it another set of compilers or something? And how relevant it is to FreeBasic?

TIA

Please don't let this project die.

@Paul,

What new features are you planning to add to FireFly FB?

Please list them so we know what is coming up... :)

Thanks,

I am still hoping that Paul will add support for SQLite stand alone and client server (based on his SQLite Server) to FireFly FB soon but it has been quite long without any new development in the IDE. It seems he has lost his interest in FB.

Hi,

This is interesting. Can you release more samples please?

TIA

@TJF, Thanks for your help. I personally would not like to tell my client to install the whole of GTK+ framework because I have used a component from it. But nevertheless thanks for your help. You asked in General forum. If you can create a general and cross-platform solution why should you be satis...

Thanks I will look at it. But I think using GTK Treeview means I will have to use the whole of GTK. I don't really want to do that just for a grid. Now that you have mentioned GTK can you tell me whether it is possible to deploy FB apps using GTK by just xCopy method instead of running an installati...

If I want to go the JAVA way then I would prefer to use Jabaco. It is really a near clone to VB6 IDE and it generates pure JAVA code.

It is really very fast on my old PC compared to other similar IDEs.

I am playing with FB for quite some time but I can't find any descent grid in FB. Actually I am trying to convert a small app from VB6 to FB and in this software I have used VSFlex Grid which is really a very feature rich grid. Can someone please point me to some good grid solutions available in FB?...

Thanks for detailed insight into Custom Controls for FF. But I feel it is way too complicated for me at this stage. Personally I feel that using DLL(s) and then distributing them with executable is not what I would personally prefer in case of FreeBasic. It would have been better if there was some s...

Are custom controls same as standard controls?

I mean can I try to modify a standard control that you have supplied and put the same in custom control folder to add that control to Custom Control?

@Paul,

While playing with FF I observed that custom controls part of Tools is empty.

How can we add Custom Controls to FF?
