WinH

[Charles Pegge]

Yes Aurel, with minor alterations:

There is a problem with '&h', so use '0x' instead. I will fix it.

Code: OxygenBasic

1.  
2.  
3. Enum TVGN_FLAGS
4.     TVGN_ROOT = 0x0
5.     TVGN_NEXT = 0x1
6.     TVGN_PREVIOUS = 0x2
7.     TVGN_PARENT = 0x3
8.     TVGN_CHILD = 0x4
9.     TVGN_FIRSTVISIBLE = 0x5
10.     TVGN_NEXTVISIBLE = 0x6
11.     TVGN_PREVIOUSVISIBLE = 0x7
12.     TVGN_DROPHILITE = 0x8
13.     TVGN_CARET = 0x9
14.     TVGN_LASTVISIBLE = 0xA
15. End Enum
16.  
17. TVGN_FLAGS t
18.  
19. t=TVGN_PREVIOUS
20.  
21. print hex t 'result: 2
22.  
23.

I think 0x5 is so much easier to read than &H5.

[Charles Pegge]

Thanks Aurel, I am learning at lot. Windows controls are still a mystery to me.

[Charles Pegge]

Yes that works nicely Aurel. Oxygen compiles to fairly efficient machine code, there are few wasted cycles, which you tend to get in interpreted languages.

Charles,

Have you run any speed comparison tests between O2 and PowerBASIC? Zale touts hand crafted code generation which sounds more like a sales pitch then a home cooked meal. I'm sure there would be a lot of interest in O2 if the word got out how far along it has come.

BTW: I think your efforts in the Rosetta Code site will pay off in many ways. (tests your code, exposure, ...)

I have not tested recently, John. but I expect the speed is fairly close. The problem with PowerBasic, I feel is that it is well and truly locked into COM, rather than a more generalised OOP model. I suppose the main reason was to provide compatibility with Visual Basic  and continuity for VB programmers.

The Rosetta wiki is a treasure. There are around 500 tasks to choose from and many challenge the capabilities of a languages. I was particularly interested in the OOP and Functional Programming tasks as these paradigms are quites stretching for Basic dialects.

[Aurel]

And much simpliest..

[Aurel]

Just one test to control two window in one callback function..

[Aurel]

Here is tooltip attempt...

Thanks Aurel, will check this out when have I wine or windows working. Playing with Ubuntu this weekend

[JRS]

Ok Kent...
I see ...Ubuntu...ha, i never liked this distro.. .
I use SliTaz and Slax.

I apologize Aurel. I was unaware of your Linux interest. What application development are you working on under those OS's? Do you have something we can play with? RubinDevX sort of has a nice ring to it.

[kryton9]

I got 64bit ubuntu to install from ubuntu 32 bit, but not from windows, so that was strange.
Anyways, got wine setup so installed oxygen and here is a screenshot of your winapi controls demo Aurel.

It works perfectly.

I played with slitaz when you first mentioned it a few years ago Aurel, it is nice and fast, but I must say this version of ubuntu I am enjoying and for the first time the unity interface is appealing to me.

It works perfectly

Of course ....when is created by native api-s and Vine work ok with native api functions.

True, but it's not genuine Vindows.

If all gooes well i have in plan to create my own fork of SliTaz,
i have one friend here in Croatia who is interested .

This is just proof that Linus is selfish and ignorant freak who don't know how to built GUI subsystem inside kernel.

Duh. I get it now. You're a Linux systems developer. That makes your comment on thinBASIC about Linus Torvalds justifiable. Did you and Linus get in an argument over kernel code direction?

I was wondering if you can give me a hand with a problem I'm having on Android Linux? For some unknown reason I'm getting assert errors with the LD BFD trying to compile the cURL extension module. I have tried multiple gcc switches to try and get around it but no luck so far. Do you think this an issue with the linker or something else?
