Simultaneous use of "The Ultimate FB HashMap" and "FB GUI library for Windows"

[Makoto WATANABE]

Hi !

I'm trying to create a program by including "the Ultimate FB HashMap(hashmap.bi)" and "FBGUI library for Windows (window9.bi)".
I can't compile this program with the following error.
My development environment is Windows 10 and FreeBASIC 32bits 1.07.1.
Do I have to give up using both at the same time?

C:\Tool\FreeBASIC\inc\win\windef.bi(89) error 120: Expected period ('.'), found 'as' in 'type BOOL as long'

Code: Select all

'inconsistency

#Include "hashmap.bi" 
dsm_HashMap_define(ZString, Integer)
Using dsm

#Include "window9.bi"

Sleep

You could use a SCOPE, hoping that the Ultimate doesn't break any important symbol

Code: Select all

#INCLUDE ONCE "window9.bi"

SCOPE
  #INCLUDE ONCE "hashmap.bi"
  dsm_HashMap_define(ZSTRING, INTEGER)
  USING dsm
SCOPE END

SLEEP

Dear TJF;

Thanks for your advice.
Unfortunately, I couldn't compile because it became "Illegal inside a compound statement or scoped block".

Error details:

H:\Tool\FbEdit\Projects\AssociativeArray\HashMap\TheAdventureOfTheDancingMen\hashmap.bi(10) error 96: Illegal inside a compound statement or scoped block, found 'namespace' in 'namespace dsm'

@Makoto: try not importing the 'dsm' namespace, since there's a symbol there ('bool') which is colliding with one defined on the Windows headers. Or try to rename this symbol (it's an enum) to use another name like __bool to avoid the clash.

Unfortunately, I couldn't compile because it became "Illegal inside a compound statement or scoped block".

So Ultimate is not only incompatible with other CPU (due to ASM code not working on ARM like BBB or RPi), it's also incompatible with the window9.bi header.

BTW:
I don't waste time with "solutions" like Ultimate. Instead I use GTK as cross platform GUI toolkit which includes GLIB, which provides a hash table feature. You may want to check Fast text search (hash table / GLib) for an example.

[dodicat]

I cannot test this, what and where is hashmap.bi?
I have a copy of windows9.bi, but for folk to test please give a link to both windows9.bi and hashmap.bi

Dear All !
Thank you everyone for supporting me.

Dear paul doe;
Thank you for telling me how to solve it.
As you taught me, I changed "bool" in "hashmap.bi" to "__bool" and now I can use both "The Ultimate FB HashMap" and "FB GUI library for Windows" at the same time.
Thank you very much.

Dear dodicat;
"hashmap.bi" can be obtained from "The Ultimate FB HashMap" below.

Dear TJF;
I will try "GTK as cross platform GUI toolkit which includes GLIB".
In order to use this I think I will encounter library link errors.
Thank you for your continued guidance.
