FB Wiki Pages that need work

[Imortis]

Since v1c released the new chm, I decided to go poking around in it to see what needed work. I figured I could put a post here with my findings.

Thanks for the list, i was going to make one myself, it would be great if the next compilation had the missing ones documented, 404 errors inside a CHM look nasty.

I went through the WIKI and checked my old list. This is a new list of what's left.

Looking at my old lists and looking at the new one, I can see that you guys are doing great on filling in those gaps! I only wish I could help out. I have no business writing documentation for FB because I still understand very little of its functions myself. However I can do my part by posting what needs work for all those who are qualified. I have updated the my list and here is the new one:


Blank

Palette Get
Using(palette)

Needs Code Example

Alpha(graphics put)
Custom(graphics put)
Erl
Err
Field
Imp
Inp
Input(file I/O)
INT
Lib
Line Input
Loc
Option Byval
Output
PCopy
PMap
Reset
RGBA (put example shows rgb but not rgba)
Trans(graphics put)
Wait
Window

Not In alphabetical list

LPT
Erl
Using(palette)

Added ERL to the alpha list. LPT is used only as OPEN LPT, that's done.
The different forms of palette are documented in PALETTE's page

There is an undocumented #PRAGMA too...No idea about what it is for.

If somebody here speaks german, this link may help:

Just enter the keyword at "Schlüsselwort-Suche" and you'll find it ;) I think, there are 418 keywords listed. Anyway, almost every keyword has got an example, so you should be able to make the list shorter ;)


Have a nice day
Ciao

Well, of the missing keywords, only ASSERTWARN is there...

EDIT: According to the changelog, ImageConvertRow looks like a new keyword ...

I don't even know what the conda's do.

[Antoni]

I just wrote the CONDxx pages. I hope my guesses were correct. Feel free to edit them! They need a good example...

[blahboybang]

Just added a page for #PRAGMA.

Correct me if I wrote something wrong. :D

That's not what #pragma does at all... did you even try it?

From src/compiler/pp-pragma.bas:

Code: Select all

'' Pragma         =   PRAGMA
''                        PUSH '(' symbol (',' expression{int})? ')'
''                     | POP '(' symbol ')'
''                     | symbol ('=' expression{int})?

And a bit higher up, the option(s) that #pragma accepts:

Code: Select all

   '' same order as LEXPP_PRAGMAOPT_ENUM
   dim shared pragmaOpt(0 to LEXPP_PRAGMAS-1) as LEXPP_PRAGMAOPT => _
   { _
      ("msbitfields", FB_COMPOPT_MSBITFIELDS ) _
   }
