$COLOR32

[SMcNeill]

As most of you guys know, I've got a 32-bit color library with which I've collected all sorts of color values and names from the net and various places in the past, which I use with QB64.  It's an essential component for my coding style, and I use it constantly -- for almost everything!!

As I was working on QB64.bas earler, to fix the glitch in the CONST math routines (here: https://www.qb64.org/forum/index.php?topic=1554.0 ), I thought I'd go ahead and take a few moments to see how complex it'd be to add those CONST values into QB64, for ease of use via a MetaCommand...   What I've came up with is in the QB64.bas file attached below.


Download the file.
Extract it to your QB64\source folder.
Use QB64.exe to open the file and compile it, and create yourself a QB64(2).exe.

You should be able to use that new exe to do things as simple as:

Code: QB64: [Select]

1. $COLOR32
2. PRINT AliceBlue
3. PRINT Red
4. SCREEN _NEWIMAGE(640, 480, 32)
5. LINE (100, 100)-(200, 200), Red, BF
6. LINE (200, 200)-(300, 300), Gold, BF

With one command, all those color values get added automatically into your CONST list, without requiring an external file or the parsing of an $INCLUDE library.


It's an easy enough change for me to make with QB64, if you guys would be interested in it -- after all, the work's already finished on it; all I'd have to do is push the changes into the repo...   

My question is:  Would folks be interested in being able to add those values to a program with a simple $COLOR32 metacommand?  Or, is this one of those features which it seems like I'm the only person around enjoys, and which I'll just script to push quickly into my personal version which I code with?

Just for yucks, I thought let's give a shot.  Using 1.3 stable compiling the program gives the following error:

Element not defined in line 137 of c:\qb64\source\sub_functions\sub_functions.bas included on line 20722

Guess you did more tweaking than just qb64.bas source.

Didn’t change a thing in sub_functions.  I’ll need to dig to see what it’s talking about for you.

Okies... That's a weird message.  Line 137 of sub_functions.bas is  simply a call to register the internal if of _GL_RENDER.  There's zero elements there that aren't used everywhere else to register previous commands.  I have no idea why it's not working for you. 

If you get a chance, and feel like it, open sub_function.bas and see if line 137 is the same as mine:

Code: [Select]

regid 

[doppler]

Here is the code block around line 137

129
130 clearid
131 id.n = "_GLRENDER"
132 id.subfunc = 2
133 id.callname = "sub__glrender"
134 id.args = 1
135 id.arg = MKL$(LONGTYPE - ISPOINTER)
136 id.specialformat = "{_BEHIND|_ONTOP|_ONLY}"
137 id.NoCloud = 1
138 regid
139

This is unmodified code from 1.3 stable release.  My line 137 does not match yours.
The 64 bit version of 1.3 stable pukes on the same line as the 32 bit version.
I added the line numbers for reference.

Posting the entire sub_functions.bas code would be stupid, since GIT has the original code.

[SMcNeill]

I see the issue — you’re looking at the “master” build, and not the “development” build. 

https://github.com/Galleondragon/qb64/blob/development/source/subs_functions/subs_functions.bas

Back in April, Fellippe removed all the old references to the Cloud stuff and all the id.NoCloud references were removed.  It’s a difference in me copy/pasting from the altered “development-version” of the BAS file, and your having the “master-version” of the build. 

You’d need the latest dev version to plug in the file and have it work, since there’s been a bunch of other changes installed between them as well.

[doppler]

Development software goes by the name "Cutting edge", also know by it's corollary "Bleeding edge".

I will wait for the next merged build.
I want to play with QB64, not have wrong kind of "Fun" with Qb64.

[RhoSigma]

Steve,

BTW - can you please merge in my latest pull request (you remember the array_check() thing), or is this only allowed to be done by Fellippe and/or Luke?

@doppler
The QB64 dev builts usually running pretty stable too. If there are no heavy changes in some internals which need comprehensive testing, but bugfixes/enhancements only, then they run at least as good as the (so called) stable releases even with the benefit of the fixed bugs and made enhancements.

[SMcNeill]

Steve,

I probably have permissions to pull and merge things, but the version of github I have doesn't make it readily apparent how to do so with their interface.  I've got a very basic GUI interface to basically "pull from repo" and "push to repo", and I'm too lazy about figuring out how to get it to do all the other things like merge/branch/ect...

Since your changes were relatively simple to make, I went into QB64.bas, made the changes to my copy, and pushed them into the development build myself for you.  It's not quite a "merge" -- it's a "commit" by me -- but in the end, the result is the same: 

Your changes are now part of the development build.  ;)

[RhoSigma]

Thank you very much, Steve!

[RhoSigma]

Just tested the latest dev builts, everything seems to work as intended with the array_check() now.

Also the $COLOR32 thing is a nice and useful addition, but maybe you still want to add the new meta-keyword into the list of keywords for syntax highlighting (source\ide\ide_global.bas).

Thanx again...
