There is an other tutorial "FreeBASIC and API" on https://users.freebasic-portal.de/freebasicru/api.html in russian language, but there is a button to "Google Translate" in nearly any language of the world, also english, of course. A lot of examples written in FreeBASIC and expl...

I've written a FLTK program for printing. Some remarks. 1) After a Fl_PrinterSetCurrent you can't write anything to the screen anymore. For instance: Fl-WidgetCopyLabel won't work. After executing Fl_PrinterEndJob you can write to the screen again. 2) You can't write empty lines to the printer, you ...

Dear badidea; Thanks for your quick reply. I tried "XFont" version 12.0.0, but unfortunately it failed to compile with the same error below. I presume that "libxfont.a" is not compatible with FreeBASIC 1.08.0. c:\tool\freebasic\bin\win32\ld.exe: c:\tool\freebasic\lib\win32/libxf...

The following functions exist:
Fl_WindowNew
Fl_WindowExNew
Fl_BoxNew
Fl_BoxExNew
Fl_ButtonNew
Fl_ButtonExNew

What is the difference between the functions with "Ex" and without "Ex"?

I also never liked Geany.
I use CSED_FB

Maybe it is already changed, but in 2012 I've found the following errors:
An error in the example of the EQV function (page 63) line 31: myInt1 > 5 should be: myInt > 3. The same error on the next page showing the results of the example.

Instead of SetWindowLongPtr you can use the more modern: SetWindowSubclass

Very useful information. I had exactly the same problem, after rewriting a file, there was still a leftover of old data at the end of the file. I have a serie of programs and each program updates its record in a session logfile. The file is just a simple textfile. I read the whole file into a buffer...

No bug? In that case "lhs *= rhs" is not the same as "lhs = lhs * rhs" The documentation says: lhs *= rhs This operator multiplies and assigns a value to a variable. It is functionally equivalent to: lhs = lhs * rhs http://www.freebasic.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=KeyPgOpCombineMult...

Result:
0 <--- wrong
3

Value *=10 + Digit returns a wrong result.
It only happens if the start value of Value is zero.

Again a problem with fixed length strings. It probably has to do (as always) with a terminating null character somewhere in the middle of the string. Although it's strange that the PRINT statement prints the correct value. But after the assignment to another fixed length string the last part of the ...

Provoni, There is a tutorial for Windows API. The examples are written in C. But even if you don't know C, the examples are not difficult to understand. http://zetcode.com/gui/winapi/ Also a lot of examples on this forum and examples in the FreeBasic directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\FreeBASIC\examp...

This looks great. I can use any font I like by taking a font in: C:\Windows\Fonts.
The letters look beautiful.
This is very much better than the Xfont routines.

Good job.
