"structureof" command?
« on: August 17, 2012, 12:40:03 AM »
hello charles, do you know where I can find the command "structureof" in source code folder? I noticed that in a "udt type" example (type2) in "basics" folder. best regards, frank

Hi,

Alien description:

Code: [Select]
type ABC
  sys    p1
  single s1
  byte   b1
  string v1
end type

ABC pa
pa = {256,0.125,255,"HELLO"}

print structureof(pa)

'long name p1: ? 019A: type = sys 
'long name s1: ? 419A: type = single
'long name b1: ? 819A: type = byte 
'long name v1: ? 129A: type = string   

print pa.v1 + " Number  " + pa.b1

Hi,

We need a tutorial about OxygenBasic for easy understanding about this stuff, what
Charles under pressure and drugs has developed.

I think Aurel is the right man for this matter.
He has always time, is in thousand foren and has AurelBasic developed.

First, I thought JRS could it do,but I have my doubts, he knows only ScriptBasic and handies and his holy Linux.

About me, I am sorry, my English too bad for this job. people would laugh about me.
 
What do you think?
 :D  :D  :D

Like David Lynch say:
 “Through the darkness of future past, the magician longs to see, one chance out between two worlds, fire walk with me!”

Hi Peter ...you always cheer me up... ;)

Yes you right, Oxygen really need some sort of tutorial or user guide or help
to to present the language in the easiest way.
I think that Kent do something about that but where he stops,i don't know.
My english is not good,bucause i am to lazy to learn gramatic rules. >:(
I don't know many things about oxygen to... ::)

And there is no better person here than Charles...

 :D  :D  :D

Close your eyes and imagine:

Millions of people (programmers and non programmers alike) read the O2-Tutorials...
...not because O2 is such a great language...
...but because they all want to read the hilarious funny tutorials...
...written by you!

Tempting?

Oxygen is not quite complete yet and takes a wider range of syntax than other Basics. But I hope we will eventually be able to distil some useful documentation from the substantial collection of examples that we have so far.

thank you charles, peter, aurel and efgee for your feedback. my search engine on my notebook strikes sometimes, it's bad I am thinking. I've searched for "structureof" with "no match found" :)
the more I see the genius structure of oxygenbasic the more I am astonished what's possible with very few code lines. I like oxygen very mucho although there's a lot of things I must go to another planet (for example: jupiter) to understand their language and behaviour (like "avatar" movie) :-) thanks charles! best regards, frank

Aurel meant this here:

Code: [Select]
w1=pword(s,i) 'resolve

It can't find your pword definition. Is it out of scope?
