Hi UEZ. I found this method (invoke vbscript directly). sub speak(text as string) dim as string x="mshta vbscript:Execute(""CreateObject(""""SAPI.SpVoice"""").Speak("""""+text+""""")(window.close...

Thanks UEZ.
I am not very keen on installing with setup.exe.
How can you use the raw dll file?

UEZ
Your sapi works fine.
There seems to be a hiccup with "MSScriptControl.ScriptControl" (as you suggest) in 64 bits.
I'll have a mess around.
When you compiled with dev c++ for a static lib did you get any warnings?

UEZ I don't have a sapi voice example to test. Here is my test file (four routines). #define UNICODE #include Once "disphelper/disphelper.bi" Dim shared as IDISPATCH PTR VB_FB dhInitialize(TRUE) dhToggleExceptions(True) dhCreateObject "MSScriptControl.ScriptControl",NULL,@VB_FB d...

I suspect that the source code for disphelper is for 32 bit but gcc 64 bit manages to compile it but the warnings tell that all is not well. For instance I think that it truncates some LONGLONG values e.g. static const ULONGLONG FILE_TIME_VARIANT_OVERFLOW = 2650467744000000000 I think gcc 64 bit see...

Thanks svarldez.
I get the 64 bit libdisphelper.a OK again, but there were warnings getting the .o file, as before.
The final fb test fails with things like
error in CreateObjectex - -
Class not registered

Go to the news section of the forum. Get a mingw package (if you don't have one) Make sure the mingw bin folder is on path. Get the disphelper source code https://sourceforge.net/projects/disphelper/ Use the single_file_source folder for convenience create a shell for cmd.exe shell "cmd" p...

I was experimenting with things like calling a constructor for example by using alias "_ZN7STRINGSC1ER8FBSTRINGall", in order to overcome the C++ class problem. It is ugly, but my reasoning is that basically C and C++ (and FreeBASIC) are procedural languages, OOP is just a layer over the b...

In Linux 32 bit
the constructor alias is "_ZN7STRINGSC1ER8FBSTRINGall"
Don't have 64 bit Linux to test.
You seem in a very bad mood badidea.

Just for fun, using some oop but bypassing it back to procedural. Enum up down End Enum type strings private: as string original as string sorted declare operator cast() as string as byte direction declare constructor(as string, as byte,as long,as long) declare sub sort(as strings,as long,as long) e...

One #define for concat seems to work here. #include "fbgfx.bi" #define test1 fb #define test2 sc_escape #define concat(a,b) a.b namespace foo sub _ bar() ? "Press <esc>" end sub end namespace do locate 4,,0 concat(foo,bar) if multikey(concat(test1,test2)) then exit do loop print ...

Caseih, I am testing like for like as fairly as possible. But you will be pleased to know that openGL quad beats fb line and boxfill. It does for a single large quad (as tested here), but not for multiple small quads (tested elsewhere) #include "windows.bi" #include "gl/glu.bi" S...
