Yes, its one of the larger test programs, including Oxyscheme, and the Opengl Framework.

You had me worried when you mentioned JIT was crippled.

[Charles Pegge]

It was secondary JIT. I think I was the only user, and that was only for demo code.

[JRS]

I would like to create 2 new directory trees from the root repo. PROJECTS for Script BASIC and thinBasic extensions. EXAMPLES for everything else. It would be nice if the examples could be grouped in like functionality categories.

@Mike,

Do you have time to lend a management hand to get the O2 source control sandbox repo in order?

[JRS]

Charles,

The sandbox has been updated with the 20181205 self compile update. The source control features seem to be working.


Sandbox Error

There seems to be a problem with the Let's Encryp SSL certificate preventing the sandbox from access. I have escalated the issue with Plesk.

[JRS]

I would think that now the compiler is mostly written in BASIC, there would be more interest in helping out at the compiler level. A new challenge for Jose moving beyond docs and includes to a compiler developer.

@Mike,

Do you have time to lend a management hand to get the O2 source control sandbox repo in order?

No John,

I'm flattered by the offer but I'm afraid I've got too little spare time for hobbies ATM.

Sorry.

[Charles Pegge]

The source code is around 10% direct Assembler, but there's loads more of it in compositional strings.

I'm trying to make it more palatable for sharing, but I would not expect anyone to get involved in the source code at this stage, unless they enjoy long code-walks


Very clever, that source comparison.

[JRS]

Source control is s must if you wish to remain sane and efficient.

The sandbox code will look better once syntax highlighting is working. An advantage of having a local GitLab install.

[JRS]

I have a temporary workaround that only seems to work with Chrome. Firefox will not allow to ignore the invalid certificate problem. You have to proceed ignoring the security warning.

The problem is GitLab creates it's own Let's Encrypt certs and there is a flaw in the renewal process which exceeds the max count on the Let's Encrypt site.

[JRS]

Charles,

Here is another view of the comparison. (side-by-side)

[JRS]

O2 down and angry

The network failed over an expired license shutdown.

Back to the sandbox.

[JRS]

AIR came up with a workaround for the Firefox access problem to the sandbox When Let's Encrypt starts allowing certificates again for sandbox.allbasic.info I will re-enable HTTPS support.

Go into "History", select "Show All History", find the link to the sandbox, right-click, and select "Forget About This site"

Then try connecting.

AIR.

Here is the URL to use once the above is done.

@Charles - If you want to get an idea what the sandbox looks like using syntax highlighting with compares, check out the SB-DEV project as it already has support for C.

@José - If you would like to update your docs in the O2 sandbox, just post a brief description of the addition or change and attach the .md file and I will update the sandbox. The offer still stands for an account for the sandbox so you can update it directly.

[Charles Pegge]

Unfortunately, Firefox does not enter this link into its history. So it can't forget about it!
