Same code for LINUX and Windows

Post by Yvan lhermet »

I have to begin an important project with touch screen.
We have to choose a new language for replace QBasic software (Deprofondis !) . FreeBasic seems very good, but i have to select some library. It will be fantastic if the same source code can be compiled under Linux and Windows !

1) That graphic library its better in my case CGUI .... ?
Our Project dont need 3D features.

2) I m looking for a small library for fast access datafile with separate indexfile ?
Like Isamfile in QB.

thanks for answer !

And do you really need any extra libraries?

As for 1), if you don't need any special functions, you may as well use FB's standard graphics library, it is pretty good for many. If you need some extra speed, I guess for expamle SDL may be a way to go.

As for 2), I dont know what Isamfile is and what it can do, but writing yourself a routine for accessing larger files by index shouldn't be hard at all...
