thanks for the link, i'll keep that in mind.

that's a nice trick :)
as long as it compiles with only fb installed i'm happy.

Thank you.

~71k ? are you sure? i dont know which platform you prefer but here is 6kb hello world for windows :) ' Compile: ' fbc -c hello.bas ' fbc -s console hello.o #Include Once "crt.bi" Function WinMain Alias "WinMain" (hInstance As Any ptr, _ hPrevInstance As Any ptr, _ lpCmdLine ...

is it possible to have a shared section without the help of gcc? Right now i do the following: shared.c // Compile me with: gcc -c shared.c int g_iRunning __attribute__((section ("shared"), shared)) = 0; main.bas ' Compile me with: fbc -s console main.bas shared.o Extern g_iRunning Alias "g_iRu...

since the os isnt aware of the module there are many things can that go wrong. Like the HINSTANCE passed to DllMain is just an address in memory and windows' api's dont know what to do with it... And there is no magic inside so COM will never work with this :) but there are some alternatives you cou...

and your non childish way of doing things like that is?

Well in my case... A closed source interpreter which can load/call dlls but cant do 'everything freebasic can' so i can hook loadlibrary and getprocaddress and add my own features... Or scite for example calls ShellExecute twice in some situations. its a known bug, and nobody fixes it and i dont wan...

After getting sick of only having c/c++ library's which do stuff like this i decided to write my own :) It has 2 Methods of hooking, the first one is pretty simple so i called it 'Simple' and it should work on every windows platform. But i tested it only on XP and Wine 0.9.17. On Vista you probably ...

By using this library. I've compiled the c library into a static lib because i'm not good in porting things, but its probably possible in fbc too. Here is an easy example which shows how it's done. #Include Once "MemoryModule/libMemoryModule.bi" ' Created by v1ctor's bin2bas, original Sour...

thanks for all the info :)

is this translated correctly? '#define SQLITE_IOERR_READ (SQLITE_IOERR | (1<<8)) '#define SQLITE_IOERR_SHORT_READ (SQLITE_IOERR | (2<<8)) '#define SQLITE_IOERR_WRITE (SQLITE_IOERR | (3<<8)) '#define SQLITE_IOERR_FSYNC (SQLITE_IOERR | (4<<8)...

no.
i'm just to stupid :)

Also remove the pointer derefs from *fopen() and *fread().

thank you

please help me make this crt functions work... (look for comment 'here') or help me use the inbuilt features to read a file :) #Include "windows.bi" #Include "win\winsock2.bi" #Include "crt.bi" Dim Shared sgFile As String Dim Shared hgSocket As SOCKET Declare Sub Thread...

oops...

looks like 0 is the filehandle that connects print to stdout :)

thank you
