Using a function returning a Zstring by reference, we can modify a constant (zstring) ! Const z = "abcd" Print @z, z Function f () Byref As Zstring Return z End Function Print @(f()), f() f() = "efgh" Print @(f()), f() Print @z, z Sleep 4223032 abcd 4223032 abcd 4223032 efgh 422...

Function f( ) ByRef As Const ZString Const z = "abcd" #Print Typeof( z ) '' This string will be returned by reference, no copy will be created. Function = z End Function Print f( ) #Print Typeof( f( ) ) Compiler output: ZSTRING * 5 CONST ZSTRING * 1 Function f( ) ByRef As Const ZString St...

But is this a good example to simply introduce the returning by reference?
This example raises too other many questions!

Is that why the first example of the documentation at KeyPgByrefFunction works also (that first example that follows has always disturbed me)? Function f( ) ByRef As Const ZString '' This string will be returned by reference, no copy will be created. Function = "abcd" End Function Print f(...

Bug report filled:
#701 "FB-win32-dos-binutils-2.23.2.zip" (win32 Add-ons) for cross-compilation does not work

Let us remember this discusion in April/May/June on bug #614 Operator = (assignment to a derived object) modifies RTTI : I would consider it desirable that at least the most important and most annoying of the remaining bugs, #614 Operator = (assignment to a derived object) modifies RTTI , should be...

I have not had any response to this previous post: http://www.freebasic.net/forum/viewtopi ... 82#p190582

About the Commit [f39553] Add [] overloading support (2013-07-21):
- I hope the overloaded member operator "[]" may also be declared as virtual?

And in addition, by using New/Delete (Byte) in the pestery's program, writing in allocated memory (to modify the memory usage field in task manager) is useless because the implicit constructor does this automatically. pestery's program so modified: Const As Integer countmax = 1024 ' Max buffers Cons...

Now everything is ok!

Done. I actually went over to the FbEdit thread in Projects, and found a working SVN link there in KetilO's first post. This one gives a direct download rather than a code directory listing. https://fbedit.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/fbedit/Release/FbEdit.zip This link seems to be broken a few time...

It's always an unknown in fb graphics whether a circle shows correctly. No, by reminding you this paragraph from the documentation about "Circle": ..... aspect is the aspect ratio, or the ratio of the y radius over the x radius. If omitted, the default for ScreenRes modes is 1.0, while fo...

The circle of egg yolk must be corrected also (in my proposal, I changed two instructions "Circle").
