I have of late—but wherefore I know not— lost all my mirth, forgone all custom of exercises; and indeed it goes so heavily with my disposition that this goodly frame, the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory, this most excellent canopy, the air, look you, this brave o’erhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire, why, it appears no other thing to me than a foul and pestilent congregation of vapours.

I did, it's a great interview, thank you! As I am german I have problems to understand fast spoken english fluently. But I could understand all you said (but hung on the same question of Mr. Schwartz as you did :-) ). My favorite usecase of Gambas is RAD (rapid application development). I rewrite software of my firm (first written in MS Access VBA and Postgresql) now in Gambas, which provides me a very easy, powerful, reliable and fast to develop language. Because of the neighbourship of Gambas to VBA I also can reuse alot of code! Before I started with Gambas I tried out Python, Java, Groovy, Lazarus and a couple of Web-Frameworks, but nothing could compare to Gambas. So I think, Gambas is heavily underrated but will have a great future because of it's superb quality.

You have to actually *set* the property to an array in order to change the contents. Therefore, this : cbxProfile.Clear() cbxProfile.Add(MGlobal.DEFAULTSTR) cbxProfile.List.Insert(MGlobal.Profiles) ... becomes this : cbxProfile.List = [MGlobal.DEFAULTSTR].Insert(MGlobal.Profiles) And there it works. :) I agree that you can't really guess it, so I added it in the documentation[0].

http://gambaswiki.org/bugtracker/edit?object=BUG.752&from=L21haW4- Alexander KUIPER reported a new bug. Summary --- Gambas shows - gbx3: warning: trying to watch fd #-1 Type : Bug Priority : Medium Gambas version : Unknown Product : Unknown Description --- Gambas3 3.8.1 (and trunk) will give this message in the console on Pi2 and Cubieboard when the ServerSocket is used and other side closes the connection earlier then our side. Only x86/x86_64 this message isn't seen, so most likely a timing issue? The reproduction scenario on Pi2 is as follows: - Create a ServerSocket - The ServerSocket passes it as a Socket, when somebody connects - Socket is handling input/output - Remote closes the connection via the normal TCP/IP FIN - The message "gbx3: warning: trying to watch fd #-1" is sometimes shown on the console An important note: - If Gambas closes the Socket before the client disconnects, no error/message is ever shown Looking into the gb.net/src/CSocket.c it looks Gambas closes the socket (on request of the client), BUT forgets set GB.Watch to none and this message is shown. It isn't shown always, so it looks like a timing issue. -- ___ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
Re: [Gambas-user] Using property on a string array
I rechecked your project, and no FQuick.Init() is not called. However FConfig.Init() is called twice in MMain.Init(). So I assume that is supposed to be for FQuick. After making this modification in your code I get "I Profiles: test" to console. Jussi On Sun, Sep 20, 2015 at 12:11 PM, Moviga Technologies wrote: > I do not understand what you mean by "Still no".
