What ever is wrong in/at/on/under my box, is is stupid gba/gbc are delete
the .info and .list files when they find this error.
The .gambas directory that is deleted in every component loop is empty for
these components. By missing this two files the next compile/install will
gives error for ever because the missing of those files.
Please check gbc and gba for this behaviour of delete.
Is there a explain why it not is done when in the Makefile
in the previous command (the by me wrong added cp .list my.list)
has a error.
gambas2.10.2 did compile and run OK.
With ./configure without --prefix then auto destdir is auto set to
/usr/local and the symbolic links are in /usr/local/bin and not in /usr/bin
I have good reason my box is correct condition to do the job.
The major difference is svn or the source I get from svn.
To check the svn part I need a tarball of a fresh svn checkout. How do I
get this? Getting other code with svn did work and I can asume the svn
installed is not totaly bad.
I know this report is long but shows that I realy try to find what is going
wrong. Also I can use gambas2 till final gambas3 is ready.
Who can tell me I will be able to compile that final gambas3 whitout
problems ?.
Going for part 2 investigate:
Restored 'gb.gtk/src/gb.gtk/.info'
Restored 'gb.gtk/src/gb.gtk/.list'
Restored 'gb.qt/src/gb.qt/.info'
Restored 'gb.qt/src/gb.qt/.list'

Re: [Gambas-user] Gambas is slower than Python??
On dimanche 18 janvier 2009, birchy wrote: Benoit Minisini wrote: Can you show us the code in Python? Maybe it will help me to find something that could be enhanced in Gambas if Python can do better? :-) Ok, i think the bottleneck is related to the function call overhead: PYTHON: wrote: import time t = time.time() for i in range(99): s = QWERTYUIOP.partition(WE)[2].partition(IO)[0] print time.time() - t GAMBAS: wrote: PUBLIC SUB Main() DIM i AS Integer, t AS Float, s AS String t = Timer FOR i = 0 TO 99 s = Scan(QWERTYUIOP, *WE*IO*)[1] NEXT PRINT Timer - t END Both of these run significantly faster when put in-line but Python is still ~33% faster. Perhaps you could add a new string function to achieve this as it is VERY useful, yet rarely (if ever) seen in other languages? For sure, Scan() is far slower than this partition() built-in function, as partition only searches for one string and returns what was found before, the searched string, and what was found after. As I never used Python, I don't really realized how much an equivalent of partition() is needed. But if Scan() is slower than partition(), it does not mean necessarily that Python is faster than Gambas globally. For example, just iterating a void loop 0..99 takes 0,1s in Python, and 0,029s in Gambas 3. If you want, I could make a partition() function temporarily just to compare exactly the same thing between Gambas and Python.

Re: [Gambas-user] Gambas is slower than Python??
On dimanche 18 janvier 2009, Gareth Bult wrote: Conversely, people use GTK bindings in Python .. Why ?! I understand that once upon a time it's what there was .. but not any more! Development time for Python or C based GUI applications is 50x more than the Gambas equivalent (in this instance I don't think the 50 is an exaggeration) and it all comes down (really) to the IDE. (IMHO) I don't know if there are some people that have a global view of Gambas. So I will say that: - The primary goals of Gambas were simplicity (in the bindings especially), quick GUI designing and coding. - Speed was not the goal, but the interpreter in Gambas 3 is optimized (far less in Gambas 2). But its design is old (I wanted a working one before a fast one), and now I have ideas to redesign it so that the bytecode is interpreted faster, maybe twice. But: I have no time. And Gambas usually spend more CPU time in system libraries and native classes than during the bytecode dispatching. So what you would win will not very visible! - The bindings, well, are not bindings: toolkit and libraries API are often hidden. You can (almost) write a program for GTK+ and switch to QT3, or the contrary. You can write a program completely independant of the database backend. So the guy who wants PostgreSQL only can use your program even if you developed it with MySQL. When the gb.image and gb.cairo components will be done in Gambas 3, you will be able to display a page of a PDF file with vector and image drawn on, all being displayed on an OpenGL rotating cube. I don't know wich other Linux languages will allow that (mixing Cairo, OpenGL, QT transparently...) - When I have time, I will merge the database manager in the IDE, and add features so that the IDE have more support for Web applications (ASP-like pages integrated with syntax highlighting, maybe support for creating Web Forms...). That was always the goal. - The object model of Gambas is specific. It actually allows things that you cannot do in Java/.Net... and many other object languages, because compiled bytecode files are entirely linked at runtime. Then you can do things like extending a native class (the Application class has more methods, depending on the components you use), overriding it and change its behaviour (you can redefine the TextArea class and add it an automatic completion feature based on a dictionnary, like a cellphone does when you type SMS), use classes from a component that is not necessarily checked in the IDE (The Settings class can take the geometry of a Window and put it in the settings file without requesting a gui component). This feature is used in many, many places in the IDE and in components. In other words, maybe it is silly to say, but I made Gambas to have a language that have features not found in other languages, that allowed me to program Gambas. :-) -- Benoit Minisini -- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword ___ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user

Nobody will ever see the data computations performed inside the loop. I recently did see optimized code disassembled for a small C program and since nothing was printed nor saved, there was no code to run and the only execution was RETURN. Be careful testing code and making comparisons amongst languages because the tests do not perform and prove unless the test is relatively meaningful and results summed over a period of time testing. Don't forget there are many ways to program solving a problem and there are good and bad ways, easy and hard, fast and slow, efficient and not.

Re: [Gambas-user] Minor bug with READ WRITE commands?
On vendredi 16 janvier 2009, nando wrote: Benoit, Question regarding the line: WRITE #pResult + (ii * 8), .x does WRITE see it casted as variant or int ? -Fernando You exactly got the point. :-) As fResult is an Object[] array, fResult[ii].x is a Variant. Why? Because, in Gambas, the datatype of an operator or a function is never more precise than the datatype of the arguments, unless the operator or function always returns the same datatype. Read that sentence at least twice. So, as fResult is Object[], then fResult[ii] is Object, and fResult[ii].x is always a Variant, as the interpreter cannot know that fResult[ii] is always a Class1. As READ and WRITE receive a Variant, they read/write a byte before the value in memory. So what is written at the pointer is not two bytes H64+H00 (the 100 value) but three bytes H04+H64+H00 (H04 meaning Integer). As the memory address is computed at each loop, the third byte is replaced by the first byte of the next write. The last written byte is outside of the array. It does not crash because memory allocation are often rounded by the C library. When reading, what happens? The GetAStruct C function receives: H04+H64+ H04+HC8+ H04+H64 +...+ H04+HC8+H00 And modifies it: H0E+H64+ H05+HC8+ ... Then READ wants to read a Variant, and so interprets the first byte, H0E, as a datatype that means...a Class, something that is cannot understand, and so you get an error message. But in other situations, you can crash the interpreter, because READ can write in memory more than expected! What is the solution? You have to tell Gambas which is the real datatype to read and write. The first solutiion is what you did: using a local variable with the accurate datatype. The second solution is not having Object as intermediate expression datatype. Instead of: WITH fResult[ii] Do that: DIM hClass AS Class1 hClass = fResult[ii] WITH hClass Then the interpreter will know at runtime that hClass is a Class1, and so that hClass.x is always an integer. So, all that is not really a bug, but I admit it is a bit weird, and not beginner-friendly. In Gambas 3, I'm currently thinking about a better, or at least clearer syntax. It will be a mix of: - True memory streams, i.e. a class that inherits Stream and that points at a memory emplacement. - Classic Basic memory access function. PEEK, POKE ? :-) And/Or MkInt$(), MkLong$()... - Explicitely specifying the datatype in READ and/or WRITE, or having ReadInteger(), ReadFloat(), WriteInteger()... methods in the Stream class, or as subroutines. People, tell me what you think about that.

Re: [Gambas-user] Spacing = True Question
On vendredi 16 janvier 2009, richard terry wrote: Wonder if someone could clarify this for me. Previously spacing was (and the documention in the IDE still says it is) the number of pixels separating child controls. If this is so, how does one give this a value? Personally I think using spacing like this is a backwards step for gambas. This little property was one of the wonderful things about the gui-designer, one had absolute control over the gaps between things, which when you are designing a gui with lots of objects, every pixel becomes critical. Now all I can see to do is switch spacing off, and use padding to set the distance betwen 2 controls you don't want to touch - and that at a minimum will be 2 pixel widths, as padding pads all around an object. Regards Richard This change is a way to prevent VB-like GUI with too small or random spacing between widgets, *and* to make the spacing proportional to the font size. Please provide a concrete example of the usefullness of arbitrary spacing, otherwise the discussion will remain theoretical. If you run out of space because you have too many widgets on the screen, maybe this is a sign that your GUI should be redesigned? -- Benoit Minisini -- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword ___ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user

The QT4 component in the /trunk is experimental and has many problems: color management has changed in QT4, so colors are incorrect ; some things do not display correctly yet ; and on my NVIDIA, QT4 is far slower than QT3, even if double-buffering is disabled. For example, moving the side panels in the IDE becomes slow as hell. By disabling double-buffering, I noticed a lot of useless drawing made by QT 4.4. Maybe these things will be better with QT 4.5 ?

The idea was to read the keys either up to the number of children or until the next key doesn't have a #. This doesn't run in Gambas2 this way, but I didn't find a way to make it run. MoveBelow doesn't seem to exist anymore (Gambas2 won't show an error, however), and I tried any possible combination of using MoveAfter() with Item and Current, but to no avail. So, can anybody help here? Thanks so much! Rolf MoveBelow() is a method of TreeView in Gambas 2, and moves the internal cursor one item below. (In Gambas 1, this method did not work in all cases). But as you want the child items of a node, you must not use MoveBelow(). It moves one item below, whether it is a child or not of the initial parent item. So if one of the child has children too, you routine won't work. You must use MoveNext() instead: baum.Current.Expanded = TRUE namenKeys.Clear ' Move the internal cursor to the current item baum.MoveCurrent() ' Then move to the first child of the current item baum.MoveChild() ' While the internal cursor is valid, i.e. while there is ' a child to look at.

If you change Align.Center by Align.Left, all is OK with +2 (it doesn't work with Align.Right however) In case you want to test, I add the whole project below (Open Suse 11.0 / KDE 3.5 / QT / Gambas 2.8) With the last 2.x version, putting 64 or 65 changes nothing except the one pixel difference. In both cases you get the first screenshot, which what is expected. Regards, Sorry, but the TestThree.png was wrong. Here is the good one! Thanks Benoit, I think there is a problem with the *last* column of a gridview, but may be I missed something instead. 1) In the TestOne, the code is what I want to get (the usage of 'k' is for the test only!), but the display is not what I expected (nothing visible in the las column) 2) If I remove the Alignment instruction (TestTwo), I get what I expect, but not what I wished! 3) As a workaround (TestThree), I add a column to my gridview, I mask it with the width limitation (role of k=1), and I restore the alignment. As you can see, the problem is just with the last column with centered text Is the first case works as expected? Please send me your project. It will be simpler for me to deal with the real thing instead of reproducing it from what you say.

You are right - the form (better, the instance of the class) has gone. There are three solutions. 1) Read the documentation. ShowModal() can return a value, which is the one passed to FTest.Close(). It has some limitations (if you close the form using the X button, this value will be 0, if I well remember). This should be the canonical solution. 2) Don't know if it works. You could make *two* references to ftest (ref1=new ftest; ref2=ref1). When the form closes, there is still a reference; don't know what precisely do a form when it closes. On other platforms, a Close() simply hides the form, so this method works, but with gambas Close() normally destroys the form, so who knows what happens? This is a dirty solution. The Persistent property of a form will tell if the Close() method just hides it, or destroys it. When a form is destroyed, the associated Gambas object is not necessarily destroyed (if you have references on it in a variable), but it becomes invalid. You can't use it anymore! But if you use static public variables, you will be able to access them, as if the form object is invalid, the class object of the form that holds the static variable is usable. When your form is actually a dialog box, you will use one of them at the same time. Your form class is a singleton, i.e. you have only one instance of them. So using static variables is perfectly logical. Regards, -- Benoit Minisini -- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

Hi, For those who are in front of their computer during the X-mas holidays... There should be, as not everone in the world celebrate X-mas and/or have holidays at the same time... First, you may see a lot of change in the last revision of Gambas 3. Most of them are bug fixes ported from Gambas 2, except a new component named gb.image.info. This is a little present for you. :-) That component allows you to get information about an image file without having to fully load it. It works this way: WITH ImageStat(System.User.Home / photo.jpg) PRINT .Type PRINT .Width;; .Height;; .Depth END WITH The Type property is a MIME type (image/jpeg in that example), and is got from the file contents, not the file extension. The Depth is 24 for a true color image, 32 for a true color image with an alpha channel, and 8 for a palette-based image like GIF. You may get other values. The component have known bugs yet. For example ImageStat(~/photo.jpeg) does not work. So it is in alpha state at the moment. Last, just to tell everyone too, I have to develop a component for my job soon. That component will allow you to make images without having to use gb.qt or gb.gtk. It may be named gb.image, and the current gb.image component will be renamed as gb.image.effect or something similar. That component will be based on the GD library (and libjpeg, libpng...). If you know a better library, please tell me. Meanwhile, enjoy gb.image.info!

So libtool problem is only with gambas3?
Maybe. I don't know, as Mandriva only has libtool 1.5.
I readed that wiki entry.
I run this command:

Re: [Gambas-user] Hex string to float
On dimanche 14 décembre 2008, nando wrote: My apologies to all...I stand corrected for my mistake. The i = h3fd5 converts hex to integer and is easiest to do it this way. This method does performs as the original person wanted but is a waste to do disk IO. Perhaps a pipe, write the integer, read the single. Although I haven't investigated, Gambas3 has pointers. Copying 4B from a pointer to the 4B int to the 4B single will do it. There are (older) versions of BASIC that had (something like) MKI$, MKS$, MKD$ and counterparts (something like) CVI, CVS, CVD. They took a string and converted it to an Int Single Double. No conversion happened because the string was binary correct for the type. All it did was copy 2B, 4B 8B from/to a numeric var to/from string. If Benoit were to incorporate these functions, it makes Gambas easily perform IO of data types with ease to convert to native variables. Thanks, -Fernando Yeh, this is planed. Anyway, you can do these conversion in Gambas 2 (and 3) this way: DIM sSrc AS String DIM eDst AS Float DIM pPtr AS Pointer pPtr = Alloc(8) WRITE #pPtr, sSrc, 8 READ #pPtr, eDst Free(pPtr) But beware with the endianness! -- Benoit Minisini -- SF.Net email is Sponsored by MIX09, March 18-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
