If some commands aren't obvious to use, feel free to post your question in coding section, we will try to answer them quickly.
There is some new 3D examples in the examples/3d folder to demonstrate the new features.

Grab it while it's hot, we hope you will enjoy the new version and we wish you a merry xmas !

En attendant la doc, je vais coller ici toutes les infos qui sortiront pour aider à utiliser les nouveautés. N'hésitez pas à ajouter les vôtres

The whole packer lib has been changed. You need to use:

UseZipPacker() and/or UseLZMAPacker() and/or UseBriefLZPacker() and then Un/CompressMemory(), or the Pack commands (it handle ZIP archive creation and manipulation and 7z archive unpack (no creation).

CreatePack() doesn't support LZMA, only OpenPack() does. You need to use ZIP or BriefLZ for CreatePack()

Les constantes pour la lib Packer
#PB_Packer_Zip
#PB_Packer_LZMA
#PB_Packer_BriefLZ

Une info concernant la nouvelle commande PostEvent().

Il faut utiliser un nombre supérieur à 65536 pour éviter les conflits avec les événements système.

Une constante #PB_Event_FirstUserEvent sera mise à disposition pour démarrer une énumération.

Code :

Sélectionner tout - Visualiser dans une fenêtre à part

1
2
3
4
5
Enumeration #PB_Event_FirstUserEvent
  #EventPerso1
  #EventPerso2
  #EventPerso3
EndEnumeration

You should use an event number higher than 65536 to be on the safe side. We will provide a #PB_Event_FirstUserEvent constant for that, so you can use it as an enumeration start.

La beta 2 est disponible sur votre compte. Elle corrige pas mal de bogues.

Hi folks,

After a bug fix session, here is the second beta of the forthcoming 5.10 release ! It does a bring a full changes as well:

- New TabBar for the IDE, using the TabBarGadget from STARGÅTE, which brings coloring for project/form tabs
- #PB_Event_TimeOut has been renamed to #PB_Event_None to avoid confusion
- UseJCALG1Packer() added on Windows x86 for migration purpose (only UncompressMemory() is available)

complément d'information de 'Freak' (Timo) concernant le TabBarGadget de STARGATE.

Le TabBarGadget permet plus de choses que la coloration des onglets, notamment le multi-lignes. Voir la première ligne de options dans préférence->Editeur.

The new TabBarGadget brings more options (multiline mode for example). You can find the options in Preferences->Editor at the top.

[comtois]

comme il y avait quelques crash, un correctif a été mis en ligne très rapidement.

C'est toujours la beta 2 et c'est toujours sur votre compte.

We have just deployed a new beta 2 with some fix about the linux canvas and the save crash on windows. Could you give it a try ?

[comtois]

Comme il est question plus haut du TabBarGadget de STARGÅTE, voici tout d'abord une image qui le montre en action :



Et ensuite le message d'origine (en allemand, mais le langage c'est PureBasic) dans lequel STARGÅTE présente son code :

[EDIT]
Je n'avais pas vu qu'il avait aussi fait son annonce sur le forum officiel de PureBasic (anglais).

La beta 8 est dispo sur votre compte, Fred semble pressé de sortir la version finale

Il est encore temps de tester cette nouvelle beta avec vos progs pour vérifier qu'il n'y a aucun problème, ou signaler les bogues.

Hi there,

It's an endless beta cycle, but as we are polishing the docs, and fixed some bugs in the meantime, here it is. You can consider this one as final, as nothing should be change code wise (only some doc are remaining). So don't hesitate to migrate right now and report any problems !

Have fun,
