I believe part of the problem is that Revolution doesn't have numerically index arrays. The arrays are associative arrays whose indexes can be any value (including text) so element access is a lookup, rather than an address computation.

It is my impression (correct me if I'm wrong) that Rev compiles to pCodes (similar to the old pSystem and to Visual Basic), while Delphi and C++ compile to native code. The difference in performance is between one and three orders of magnitude, depending on what you're doing.

It is true that Rev is fast enough to do some amazing things (the Nine Ball with Spin stack is a good example of excellent real-time graphic performance), but it is a real dog at compute intensive tasks (processing each pixel in an image).

Do you have Revolution Dreamcard?

You need Revolution Studio, or better, and you can then make a standalone compiled app.

Subject: compileIt for revolution?


Is there any chance that Heizer/Royalsoft (or anyone else for that matter) will
make a script compiler for revolution like compileIt?
