How to test a class / method with OxygenBasic?
« on: February 24, 2015, 11:11:56 AM »
Hi Charles,

may I ask your advice? In my simple manner of programming I use print and waitkey statements to set some breakpoints, but I do not know how this works efficiently in debugging a class / method. OOP is a mystery for me.

For instance I indented indenter.o2bas with itself. My Editor recognizes out.bas as a binary file and opens it in HEX mode. Using Scite I can see NUL characters in out.bas prior to every do loop. But I do not really know where to look for. Line 38 (bb=b) makes no sense, but changing to b=bb results in an endless loop. I look in the code at the locations with '0' and 'do' and feel a bit helpless. Is there a systematic way how I could test / debug a method / class in OxygenBasic?

Hi Roland,

For debugging classes, you treat methods exactly like a function or sub. Normally, I use print statements, or printl for console output.

But I am about to adapt this code for use as an Oxide utility. It is very old and needs a thorough rework, as well as a simple text interface instead of loading/saving files.

.....

This will also clean out any right-hand space, and replace nulls etc with spaces.

Hi Charles,

the analogy: method and function / sub is very helpful for me. Thinking about this I can see class like a user defined type which contains some data as members and some procedures which can deal with this data.  Comparing the code above with the previous indenter.o2bas I can see that there are variables which are valid throuhout the program, vars which are valid in a class and vars which are valid in a method. And using print as breakpoints in a method should work as usual. Looking in Wikipedia ... ok, there are some more things which I have to learn about. But I have not come so far until now. I am only accustomed to a structure with procedures and then a main loop.

Using the code above still does not work. (But it looks much more understandable to me now). If I create a copy of the code as in.txt, Scite shows the NUL characters in out.bas and oxide.exe loads the file until the first do.

Please give me a chance. I would like to find out this afternoon what happens.

Hi Roland,

Yes, a Class is a fusion of type and functions. A function belonging to the class is called a method, and all member variables of the class are visible to the methods.

Internally, Oxygen's native objects look exactly like variables defined by traditional Basic UDTs

Indenter works with the test source code (based on one of Peter's old programs) but has not been tested on much else. So I am about to hook it up to Oxide for a full workout.

Fixed bug causing space(n) to deliver wide characters (0x0020)

Oxygen DLL Update (200k)
http://www.oxygenbasic.org/o2zips/Oxygen.zip

OxyMin Update (800k)
http://www.oxygenbasic.org/o2zips/OxyMin.zip

OxygenBasic Full Update (4700k)
http://www.oxygenbasic.org/o2zips/OxygenBasic.zip

Another Test Piece:
ind1.o2bas
Code: OxygenBasic
  1. sys a,b
  2. if a then
  3. if b
  4. do
  5. a=b
  6. b=a
  7. do
  8. exit do
  9. continue do
  10. end do
  11. exit do
  12. continue do
  13. while a>b
  14. exit while
  15. wend
  16. select a
  17. case 1
  18. b=1
  19. case 2
  20. b=2
  21. end select
  22. for a=1 to 2
  23. exit for
  24. next
  25. end do
  26. end if
  27. end if
  28.  
Result:
Code: OxygenBasic
  1.   sys a,b
  2.   if a then
  3.      if b
  4.         do
  5.            a=b
  6.            b=a
  7.            do
  8.               exit do
  9.               continue do
  10.            end do
  11.            exit do
  12.            continue do
  13.            while a>b
  14.               exit while
  15.            wend
  16.            select a
  17.            case 1
  18.               b=1
  19.            case 2
  20.               b=2
  21.            end select
  22.            for a=1 to 2
  23.               exit for
  24.            next
  25.         end do
  26.      end if
  27.   end if
  28.

Re: How to test a class / method with OxygenBasic?
« Reply #6 on: February 26, 2015, 04:54:59 AM »
Hi Charles,

I found only a partial solution. In the old code I modified method append:
Code: [Select]
  method append(string s)
  =======================
  sys a,le
  le=len s
  a=le+chars
  if a>lb
    br+=space(8192) 'stretch
    lb+=8192
  end if

string s1=s
do
pos = instr(s1, chr(0))
if pos = 0 then exit do
s1 = left(s1,pos-1) & mid(s1, pos+1)
end do
mid (br,chars+1)=s1

  chars+=le
  end method

This is only to show that I tried it. The change deletes the 0 codes, but does not consider the indents in the next line. I also did not think about wide characters. I saw the 0x0020 in my editor, but I could not attribute it to wide character. The important aspect for me is that I tried to investigate a class / method the first time.

I tried the new indenter.o2bas of the updated OxygenBasic distribution with several files and these were indented ok. There is one thing which I do not know if it should be considered as missing:

e.g.:

  =============
  class wordman
    =============

    method skiplspace(s as string, i as sys)
      ========================================

  '--------------------------------------------------------------------
  Function WinMain(sys inst, prevInst, asciiz*cmdline, sys show) as sys
     '====================================================================


underscoring with some keywords will differ a little bit. I think this was already the case before. Nevertheless indenter.o2bas can be a very helpful tool.
