Latest Releases

[Charles Pegge]

This one should fix Peter's problem with the colons.

I will put out another release (37) shortly as we have accumulated quite a number of changes and new examples. The in-progress version continues to be updated almost on a daily basis.

Charles ...is this release still dependent on oxygen.dll or not ?

Ooups ...this is only a dll....

When we can see oxygen that works without dll?

[Charles Pegge]

Hi Aurel,

If you run any source code with the runtime library included at the top, it will compile to an independent exe (or dll) that has no further dependency on Oxygen.dll.

For Example, these 2 lines in the SearchFiles program perform this operation. I comment them out when performing direct execution from script, and uncomment them when I'm ready to make an exe

Code: [Select]

 $filename "SearchFiles.exe"
  #include "..\..\inc\rtl32.inc"

Charles

PS. Secondary or run-time compiling (using the compile and uncompile functions) will not work in independent mode. But this is the only exception as far as I know.

Hi Aurel,

When we can see oxygen that works without dll?

when this happens.

[kryton9]

I see the four horsemen coming Peter.

[Aurel]

So if i want make standalone exe without oxygen.dll i must include rtl32.inc.
Ok i will try....
I don't know that before.

Alpha 37


No major features in this release but a number of refinements, bug fixes and consistency fixes related to the self-compile project.

Peter's Window.h required 2 small mods, and I hope we resolved satisfactory rules for the use of colon labels . (zip below)

wc.lpszMenuName  = caption
wc.lpszClassName = "Oxygen"

wc.lpszMenuName  = ?caption
wc.lpszClassName = @"Oxygen"

Very handy and well thought out implementations Charles for useful features, thanks.

[Charles Pegge]

I have added a lot more error traps recently, Kent. So you may get some unexpected messages, when compiling your programs.

For instance reassigning to a string passed byval is no longer allowed within a function, since the function caller has sole responsibility for the creation and destruction of the string parameter.

But I'm keeping the programs in the projects section in sync. So you will be able to see any remedial alterations.

So you may get some unexpected messages, when compiling your programs.

This isn't problematic,  I expected  this in any case. Actually is this standard.
Luckily  is there  a hospital  near of my home.   

[Charles Pegge]

The 64 bit RTL is progressing rapidly. I hope to have some small programs running in a few days time.

A few minor changes to the compiler and assembler were also required, around the issue of 32 bit vs. 64 bit width pointers and stack.

So far the services of the men in white coats with the large syringe have not been required

[JRS]

Looking forward to be driving on that new highway under construction. 

[efgee]

Side-note:
Downloaded the newest zip and saw that method overloading doesn't work.
Maybe still on the todo list...

Looking at the changelog:
Man are you busy
