My deepest condolences, it's always hard to lose a loved one. Keep your head up, life goes on.
I'm sure you'll meet her again some day.

Re: Library, Project, Example Code Archive
Such a well sorted archive, something similar to Code-Beispiele or Projektvorstellungen of the german forum I'm missing badly here. The codes are put there by the programmers themselfes, so it shouldn't mean too much work for the mods.

Re: Anyone still here from the old QB45 days?
In the late 80s I bought my first 2nd hand PC, with a 286@12 Mhz, 1MB(!) of RAM and a 10MB harddisk with MS_DOS installed. Pretty soon I found that "qbasic.exe" and was keen about the incredible speed of my new "byte racer" in comparison with my old C64.

Re: Alternative to HWND variable declaration
GetDC returns a value of the type " H andle of a D evice C ontext", while your Hdc is DIMmed as Long. The value is converted automatically and the compiler throws a warning, although it will work. In FB you are allowed to use a type name as variable name as well in the same program, but i...

Re: Passing string parameters to subroutine
You don't need any pointer, just pass the string ByRef: Sub parse(ByRef rom As String) Dim As Integer b, e Print Len(rom) Print b = 1 Do e = InStr(b, rom, " ") Print Mid(rom, b, e - b) b = e + 1 Loop While e End Sub Dim As String somedata = "The big brown fox jumped over the lazy dog&...

Re: Speed
To get a loop executed 25 times a second I would recommend this: Do timecomp = Timer + .04 '1/25 second ' 'put here the code to be executed 25 times per second ' Do While Timer < timecomp 'waste the rest of the time... Loop Loop So you don't have to care about the execution time of the code even if ...
Re: Speed
Generating a constant and precise delay is quite simple:
Code: Select all
Dim timecomp As Double
timecomp = Timer + .001 'add requested delay in (fraction of) seconds
Do While Timer < timecomp
'waste some time...
Loop

Re: Chatting with AI
Given a group of AI trainers who are the nicest people one would ever wish to meet, then we could have an AI which is a pleasure to interact with. Maybe, but in my experience, the more politically correct a statement the more insignificant it becomes, at least tendentially. It could be difficult to...

Re: Chatting with AI
For me, the fastest way to recognize faces was to observe the patterns from the corner of my eyes. I think that's a relic of the times we were tree-dwelling. This would surely help our ancestors to survive, but can it really be called intelligence?

Re: Am i trying to create and use this library correctly here?
@caseih: I'm afraid, your response could be a little misunderstandable. The Type definition has to be done in both the dll and the calling program. Using a .bi file is good custom (and recommendable), but it is not necessary. Furthermore the procedure(s) of the dll have to be specified "Export&...

Re: Redirecting standard output of compiled executables (Window)
Change the call to "SHELL "c:\freebasic\fbc64 f.exe > ans" and it should work.

Re: Will FreeBASIC support web?
It's not my intention to offense anyone, it's only just an observation.
I'm still looking for an opportunity to use FB on Android devices, and Emscripten seems to be a way it can be done.

Re: Will FreeBASIC support web?
I would support this, but I doubt that it will happen. The maintainers of this forum seem not to be willing (or able) to change anything.
