QB64 locks up - shows error after about a minute
« on: February 01, 2019, 07:32:19 am »
Error says line 1159.

The program has 1022 lines.

A secondary copy of QB64 elsewhere on the drive runs fine.

After seeming to recover from the error, compile phase halts at "checking program".

I've maybe borked some config file?  Happy to send it along for examination if ya tell me what file.
It works better if you plug it in.

It’s not a report on a glitch in your program.  It’s reporting QB64 *itself* glitched.  I’ll do some digging.

Hi Steve. If you go in to QB64 source, look also to this bug: If in IDE you press left alt and hold it + press on numeric keyboard 1 to 7, release alt and then press F1 and you get error message ide module error: ide_methods on line 2492.

@Petr  I am not able to get your results.... is NUMLock ON or OFF?
If I do your input keyboard sequence with Num Lock OFF I get message "No bookmark exists (use Alt+Left to create bookmark)" when I keydown 2 (and/or 8) on the other hand I get nothing

@Steve
in QB64 IDE with NumLock ON, if I press AltGrad + ASCII sequence I get nothing, If I press Left Alt + ASCII sequence I get special ASCII character  for example 126 for tilde ~. Is this the correct way for special characters?
Programming isn't difficult, only it's  consuming time and coffee

Hi TempodiBasic, num lock is on and error message is from ascii code 0 to ascii code 7 (then press F1 for bug). Left alt + ascii code on numeric keyboard is old way (i use it also in Qbasic) for inserting this characters to ide.
