“The uncertainty principle, also known as Heisenberg's indeterminacy principle, is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics. It states that there is a limit to the precision with which certain pairs of physical properties, such as position and momentum, can be simultaneously known. In other words,...

Bit too early in the morning for you to employ a civil tongue?

ar is a GNU Binary Utility, apparently.

srvaldez knocked out some great instructions recently regarding toolchains and made no assumptions about the reader's expertise.

'ar rcs libbuilt_in.a built_in.o' without further ado is not helpful.

@srvaldez If you want some feedback on this thread, you'll have to 'dumb it down' a bit. > 'gcc -c -O2 built_in.c' You have obviously learnt a few undocumented shortcuts to command lines, but that will not work as a command line, and it will not produce an 'o' file expected in the next statement. > ...

> I am only using fbc 1.20.0 with gcc/clang work. For that, I use WinFBE plus SCS III. SCS III will build the clang command line for me. I can also use WinFBE plus SCS and that will build a gcc command line. We get the benefit of the much improved fbc 1.20.0 with gcc 11.2.0. The latter does not do m...

Xusinboy Bekchanov reported a serious issue with fbc 1.20.0. This was corrected in the latest build. The following uses the latest 1.20.0 build. I am only using fbc 1.20.0 with gcc/clang work. OK, with 32-bit and 64-bit; after a compilation fail on both with previous fbc 1.20.0 build. FreeBASIC-1.20...

Trust dodicat to come up with a 'cracker'. I have two monitors. Everybody's graphics end up with half on my secondary monitor and half on my primary monitor. I should have mentioned this ages ago, but I include #include "fbgfx.bi" and ScreenControl fb.SET_WINDOW_POS, 100, 10 That way I get...

@srvaldez You are going deeper than I am prepared to go. I will stay with your previous instructions unless you advise otherwise. I should imagine most will do the same. Your opening post did not bode well for gcc/clang, but with 11.2.0 gcc/clang we have a different story. It is a serious competitor...

Found one.

Release Notes

fbc 1.20.0 [2 April 2024] LLVM 18.1.3 [5 April 2024]

FreeBASIC-1.20.0-gcc-11.2.0cl (162MiB)

I have tried to find a 'changelog' for LLVM 18.1.3, but I cannot find one.

Blimey — feedback! I need a lie down.

Thank you, antarman.

srvaldez should get the credit. He supplied the engine — I just did the coachwork.

Sleep 1, Sleep 2, …, Sleep 15 all give a Sleep of 15 because Sleep is linked to the System Clock (64Hz). To get Sleep n to sleep for n milliseconds, then use: Declare Function settimer Lib "winmm" Alias "timeBeginPeriod"(As Ulong=1) As Long settimer That uses a timer with a frequ...

Use Randomize , 5

Why? Why not

Tee surface — Redirect input to multiple surfaces.

What would we do without srvaldez?
