Ok, good to know that - thanks

What is wrong with my code? '#compiler freebasic '#compile console 32 function my_func2 (byval z as zstring ptr) as long '*********************************************************************************************** ' '*******************************************************************************...

I finally ran a successful built!

It sounds like maybe you've taken the ffi.h.in file, and renamed it?

Yes, that´s what i did.

That file has to pass through the configure/make process to fill in some of the variables, in order to become a valid header file that works with your target.

Thanks, i didn´t know that!

I need this for a generic array sort macro


JK

Wow, quite tricky to get a pointer to the array descriptor, but it works - thanks for sharing!

JK

Is there a method of retrieving a pointer to an array´s data (the first data element to be exact) without knowing the number of dimensions of this array ? Consider the following code: dim a(1 to 5) as long dim b(1 to 5, 1 to 6) as short dim s as long s = sizeof(typeof((a))) print "sizeof(a) &qu...

Jeff, St_W,


i can run the tests now without getting errors, thanks for your help!


JK

Jeff,


thanks for your help! As per your recommendation i use MSYS2 for a command shell, which comes with it´s own version of gcc. So a different gcc and different a codepage make the difference :-)

Jeff,

Running "make unit-tests" i see 10 fails in wstring\utf_conv.bas - is this correct ?

JK

Thanks Jeff, so the point is, it cannot be run from a Windows command prompt at all. I must use a different shell, which has to be installed first on Windows. for "make unit-tests DIRLIST=pretest" i get: make -f unit-tests.mk make[1]: Verzeichnis „/d/freebasic/jk-fork/tests“ wird betreten ...
