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? Is the plan to be able to read in old vb projects to convert to FreeBasic?

We can do that too.

TwinBasic, which is 100% compatible with VB6, should be out in February, so I don't think about it.

I have met many so-called VB6-compatible xxBASIC. But all turns out to be a liar.

February is one month away. We'll see.

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

TIA

There is no relevance to FreeBasic. I said this because one person asked if there are plans to import/convert VB6 projects.

Hi Xusinboy:

Thank you for your development and improvement of this tool.

During install, I had this problem

Code: Select all

fbc.exe -b "..\MyFbFramework\mff\mff.bi" -dll -x "..\MyFbFramework\mff64.dll" "..\MyFbFramework\mff\mff.rc"
Error!
Line 7 of Resource Script (..\MyFbFramework\mff\mff.RC):-
Could not find file:-
../resources/Animate.png

I resolved it by putting the full paths to the resources in the mff.rc. I think it may be a problem with GoRC not being able to deal with relative paths ???

Hi, robert. GoRC relative paths know, for that the current directory must be correct.

Thank you for reporting this, I have changed the ReadMe:
