I do not know anything about Btrieve and do not have experiences in working with dlls. I am exclusively programming in FreeBasic as a hobby, sometimes I also play a little bit with simple Windows GUIs. I think if you want to include an external library, you have do include a header file (in this cas...

Seems to be a nice stuff to play with! BasicCoder2: If you increase the numbers of cities, the computation time will decrease dramatically with that brute force method, as expected.

I tested it last year. Very bad experiences. I could only run some programs which were delivered with this app, nothing else. Have a luck at the ratings!

I do not know how Function BTRCALL is defined, but the main error seems to be in the first line: Declare Function BTRCALL Lib "wbtrv32.dll" (ByVal Word, Asciiz, any, Integer, Any, ByVal Byte, ByVal Byte) As Integer You have a long list of parameters without defining their types. A correct ...

Is there a way to use freeBASIC as an interpreter? I hate manual compilation and was wondering if there was an option to automatically compile or maybe interpret freeBASIC. If you use FBEdit, FBIde, IUP_FB_Editor or an other IDE, you can also press the "Quick Run" Button. This will create...

Oh yes, I understand. Works fine and looks very nice. I misinterpreted "Press a key (or <esc> to end)", I just pressed <esc>.

Hi dodicat, I see only some circles (not filled), a green circle (filled) and a red circle (filled), no path (no lines), no result. Is your code incomplete?

"Given a list of cities and the distances between each pair of cities, what is the shortest possible route that visits each city exactly once and returns to the origin city?" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travelling_salesman_problem ). Since finding an exact solution is a big effort (for...

fbc64.exe is the compiler only. The best way to use it is to use an IDE (e.g. FBIde) where can set all necessary compiler options to compile and run a .bas file.

Hi Löwenherz, this is Vanya's homepage: https://users.freebasic-portal.de/freebasicru/index.html . It is in Russian, but there is a button for translation into English. A fantastic collection of FB stuff and tutorials! Go to "Articles -> FreeBasic + API -> Child window - TAB". I am not fam...

Yes, if you interested you can downlaod it from that link. Although it looks simple, it needs some basic understanding of Windows API. Good luck!

Which problems do you mean? What do you mean by following the Microsoft installation process? Just download FreeBASIC from https://sourceforge.net/projects/fbc/files/ , unzip all files into a folder (e.g. C:\FreeBASIC) and configure your IDE (set compiler path and compiler options). No problems for ...

I'm trying to play around with the WinEd example but can't locate WinLib.bi. Is it part of Windows, part of Freebasic, or something else??? Hi cavelamb, what is WinEd? As explained by RNBW, you can find more information about my WinLib here: https://www.freebasic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=32421 . M...

Thank you!

I found this tutorial about "plasma effect": https://lodev.org/cgtutor/plasma.html
