Hi, I noticed Avira AntiVir and Kaspersky signaling a find of malware in the OxygenBASIC package (Alpha 009). You can give it a try on VirusTotal . I guess these alerts are false positives , but it might frighten off some users. Maybe you could contact these anti-virus software manufacturers to ask ...

Hey, Unfortunately, some changes to the code (see SVN commit log) somehow broke our self-made automatic build system for the DOS package. Thanks to dkl and his latest changes to TRAM2 , we'll probably be able to bring the DOS daily build up within the next days, now using TRAM2 instead of our former...

MySQL and PostgreSQL (both interfaced in FB by their C-APIs) worked fine for me but I still haven't tried FireBird in connection with FB. :/

Strange. According to my SysInfo I have Service Pack 3 installed. I certainly don't have a problem using the chm though. I am using Home Edition, so that may be the difference. If the file is unblocked and not located on a network share, you won't have any problems on XP/Vista/7 no matter what Serv...

The CHM documentation (0.21.1) works fine on my Windows XP SP3. The Aug 11, 2010 update on Source Forge for FB-manual-0.21.1.chm has a problem. I get this error message: Navigation to the webpage was canceled What you can try: * Retype the address. As far as I know, this problem is the result of a s...

Thanks a lot for this new release! :-) \o/

Very neat application! :-)

@Frank: Very nice idea and a cool design! I look forward to seeing this finished. :-) Just one little remark: The title of the website ("FreeBASIC portal") might be slightly misleading as the German community has been maintaining "FreeBASIC-Portal.de" since 2007. (That's also the website currently o...

BTW, at least it runs fine on Windows NT 3.51 (32-Bit OS):



I tried it in August 2007.

For my taste, however, this approach still requires too much delving into the winAPI. Full acknowledge! It's a pity that this neat IDE doesn't offer an object-oriented GUI including properties and methods just like VB does. ' Example Sub Button1_Click () Button1.Width += 1 'make button bigg...

It's the FreeBASIC header for a freely available webcam handling DLL: http://sol.gfxile.net/code.html

You can use the EXEPATH function to determine the path where your EXE file resides: PRINT "Current working directory: " & CURDIR PRINT "Directory containing this executable file: " & EXEPATH SLEEP Don't confuse EXEPATH and CURDIR , which returns the current working direct...

Wow! You've done an amazing job!

Hi Niko,

there's a German tutorial on getting rid of the first window appearing: http://www.freebasic-portal.de/freebasi ... gen-2.html

I think the "end-user" documentation on the keywords etc. provided by the wiki isn't the main documentation problem but the documentation of the sources of the compiler itself. A rather comprehensive guide on understanding the compiler sources and its structure would be helpful. Such a document coul...
