I guess it's nice. I can only "guess" because when I compile (1.09 64bit) I get: all.asm:869: Error: incorrect register `ebx' used with `q' suffix all.asm:872: Error: incorrect register `ebx' used with `q' suffix all.asm:941: Error: incorrect register `eax' used with `q' suffix all.asm:172...

Every Christmas is the same story: we want to play bingo but either we can't find the cards or some are missing. With this little program you can print one or more random series of 6 cards. the program output will be a printable html file, located in the same directory as the executable. the quantit...

Thanks a lot, fxm, the problem was just under my eyes but I couldn't see it. I was keeping on confusing 32 (the number of bits in a qword) with 8 (the bits in a byte).
Again, thanks to you all! :)

Unfortunately the solution has to be built with no array: the allocation table is part of an object (I am writing an AVL Tree indexing object) and, as you know, dynamic arrays are not allowed within an object...

Hi guys, keeping track of which records have been deleted in a table has always ben an issue to me, so I wrote a simple routine that uses an allocated memory area as a bitmask: dim shared as ulong FreeSlots, PoolSize dim as ushort i, x dim as ulong ptr table function FindFreeSlot(byref rm as ulong p...

You may have a look at Cairo for simple text rendering. And for advanced textes (multiline, I18N, ...) use PangoCairo or GooCanvas. To start with: I'm sorry for being so late in answering but I had troubles with my old PC. Now it's fixed so I'm back again. Thanks for the suggestion: I'll surely giv...

Hi! Here is a problem I've got with the XFont library. With xfconv.exe I created five XF fonts from "verdana.ttf": v10.xf, v14.xf, v16.xf, v20.xf and v22.xf (of course the name of the files is simply the pitch size). Here is the code I wrote to load and test the rendering: #include "w...

You're welcome. It's there on purpose. :D

Maybe this might be useful; it's the update italian.fbl Comparing the old one with english.fbl I noticed that there were some item missing.

fxm: you were right. I moved away from any system path both the whole tree structure of FBIDE and fcb itself. A lot better. The warning seems disappeared.
Thanks!

(Right!) W7/64 SP1

Hi! Here there's another issue, quite similar to the one Jack Jackson submitted: at startup FBIDE displays a dialog box "[Patcher] / Warning: Messages missing on language file". Even if I think the problem is not there, I checked the .ini file and the .fbl referencies. Everything seems OK....

Thank you very much! Both of you have been clear and exhaustive.

Could someone tell me how to create a library (".a" extension I guess) from a .bas source?

And after I created it, how can I link it (I'm using FBIDE) in a project so that it can be "seen" by all the project modules?

Thanks in advance!
