it seems that installing gtk2 and gtk3 is a bad idea. some libraries conflict... for example the compilation of IUP_FB_EDITOR has been successful but the program does not run with an error message: Gtk-ERROR **: GTK+ 2.x symbols detected. Using GTK+ 2.x and GTK+ 3 in the same process is not supporte...

I generated the deb package of freebasic 1.06 downloadable here :

Hello to all! I am writing a Linux version of the library. I do not know how much patience I have :) You can try what I have written now. Of course this is only part of the library. The link will be the archive in the archive source files. In the Remark file lists the currently available functions ...

@Coolman it is your choice which compiler version you want to use, in my experience, FBx64 executables are usually faster than FBx86, except for graphics I don't have a real world benchmark, so here's the nbody benchmark my times on Windows 10 x64 FBwin32 fbc -w all -asm intel -gen gas launched fou...

finally. I will use the 32 bit version of freebasic. it is windows 64 compatible and most programs are faster. that said. I will soon stop using windows for linux. I would see the difference ...

why not harmonize freebasic 32 and 64 so that it generates only C code with the default compilation enabled with the option -O2. it would be more logical. and it will optimize the c-generated code in both versions. You can use the gcc backend also for 32-bit freebasic by passing "-gen gcc"...

I will see. to return to freebasic. does anyone have a benchmark source code to concretely evaluate the speed of 32 and 64 bit programs: - loop - between file output - arithmetic calculation - sorting ... no graphic test since apparently the 32 bit version is more optimized ... I would do it but I d...

Windows Make sure you recompiled everything with -dTEST_WIN32_SEH and appropriate -Cf parameters. By default win32 has a slower exception system than win64, but that is historic and will hopefully be fixed soon. I did not know this setting, I use classic optimizations. you mean with this setting. 3...

I know all that . by default freebasic 32 generates asm code while the 64-bit version generates only C code . which explains that 32 bit programs are much faster than 64 bit ... I hope it is more precise. Maybe more precise, but your conclusion is still wrong. In general asm code is not faster than...

I use freebasic only for small programs and lazarus freepascal for big projects. the speed difference of the programs (32 vs 64) generated surprised me. that's all . the technical details are not important. I expect a 64 bit program to be faster than a 32 bit program. it's always the case with the o...
