1) dir.bi is part of FBC. Located in the <FreeBASIC>\inc\ sub-directory
2) all *.bi files are "clear text", uncompiled source ...

Something like that, perhaps?

The current implementation is very inefficient. A comparison in the Main-Loop whould be much more efficient and, free a lot of CPU time. Only act, if a change of Time has occured ... otherwise "Sleep": Dim As String cTime Do If Time <> cTime Then cTime = Time ' update comparison variable ....

I think we are talking about different things. No, we don't. You just don't seem to understand the concept of 'temporary' stuff ...

I understand that, but I'm interested in this question which basically it turns the extra destructor is called Since the temporary 'type' (which takes the data from the locally created/destroyed 'type') is constructed at 'return time', it can only be destroyed in MAIN-code ...

I don't see anything 'hidden', except if you refer to the Functions 'scope'.
1) in Functions scope: ctor/dtor (two times ctor, one dtor)
2) temporary 'type' (Function return) -- dtor in MAIN

@VANYA, nice try, at a April Fool's prank.

Hi all, especially if we're doing a simple console application, it is not necessary to always #Include "Windows.bi". The very same applies of course also, to Frameworks of any 'colour or shape'. Some of us (including myself) simply don't want those approx. 1.5 MB of predefinitions. There i...

Don't understand where you are aiming at because, FreeBASIC is hosted on SourceForge & GitHub ???
Are 2 platforms insufficent, do you need more?
