Re: Default BYVAL or BYREF Parameter Passing?

I Look in the help and there is nothing on this topic. Look at BYVAL or BYREF documentation page: Dialect Differences: In the -lang fb dialect, Byval is the default parameter passing convention for all built-in types except String and user-defined Type which are passed Byref by default. The Zstring...

Re: Default BYVAL or BYREF Parameter Passing?

Default BYVAL or BYREF Parameter Passing? One issue for programmers that keeps coming up in different ways is the changed default BYVAL/BYREF paraneter passing expectation. In the 0.17-final release, the default is BYVAL for -lang fb. For those who may not know, in previous versions it was BYREF. T...

Re: Re:

Since afaik there is only an ascii version, you'd have to use utf8 manifesting (win10 1905+). But I don't know if that works for win 3.1x calls. Did you test? No, I don't have a Win10 machine at hand right now. Utf8 should only be a problem if you use non-Ansi executable names. I need an asynchrono...

AFAIK yes, if you want to return to the "initiating" (aka: calling) program.

Re: RUN/SHELL/EXEC

What's the difference, functionally, between these three commands? They all seem to do basically the same thing. Drop out to a shell, run a command, and pop back to the program when it's done. Skyler Is true ...All commands always wait wait and wait, always the same I need an asynchronous call ,,,,...

Re: ExEvent - Extended ScreenEvent

So I needed an event-driven way to handle joystick input, sadly ScreenEvent doesn't offer this. So, I spent a few hours to create my own Extended Event function. It does everything ScreenEvent does (internally it uses ScreenEvent to handle the 'regular' events) but extends some and add joystick sup...

Re:

from http://www.freebasic.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=KeyPgRedim Redim cannot be used on arrays contained in UDTs (user-defined Types), because currently only fixed-size arrays are supported in UDTs.
