The beta 2.2 release can be found as an attachment to post #3 of this thread. (first test release, Build 3 is coming soon)

ScriptBasic 2.1 is the current official release. (all platforms) (using MS VC7 for Windows)

ScriptBasic 3.0 was a effort to standardize on gcc on all platforms using TDM-GCC-MinGW. Peter Verhas expressed his concerned about using the 3.0 version and what was being offered didn't justify a major revision number change. At this point the 3.0 is an indicator that SB was compiled with gcc on Windows and not Microsoft Visual C/C++.

The Mini-XML extension module AIR wrote is looking promising. I was able to get it to compile on Windows but it errors on LoadDoc() at the moment. I'm hoping Armando finds some time to get it working under Windows.

As soon as I get the GetChild() and attribute functions written along with a bit of error trapping, I'll release my SBXML module for others to play with.

I have very little of the IUP CD API wrapped at the moment for the SB extension module. The CD (Canvas Draw) API is HUGE and is going to take some time to add it's features to the SB IUP extension module. I need to finish the core IUP callback interface first.

Check out THIS thread and if you're still having issues, let me know.

Just now while looking for libgd2.dll, there are lots of warnings about this file being unstable and easy to hack.

I using Microsoft Security Essentials with no reports of issues. What are you using?

I really don't see any use for the GD extension module unless you need to create custom .png files on the fly while using the webserver.

The IUP CD (Canvas Draw) with OpenGL will be the desktop graphics engine of choice.

I do appreciate your feedback and research!

I have put together a ScriptBasic 2.2 beta release for Windows 32 bit. I'm still working on the event (callback) interface for the IUP extension module and hope to have something to share in the next beta release.

Unzip this in your C:\ directory and edit your system path to include C:\scriptbasic\bin.

Please give it a try and let me know if you find something that isn't working as it should.

ScriptBasic 2.2 BETA for Windows 32 attached

I was able to compile Armando's (AIR) SQLite3 extension module on Windows for the 2.2 release.

import sqlite.bas

db = sqlite::open("testsql")

sqlite::execute(db,"create table demo (someval integer, sometxt text);")
sqlite::execute(db,"insert into demo values (123,'hello');")
sqlite::execute(db, "INSERT INTO demo VALUES (234, 'cruel');")
sqlite::execute(db, "INSERT INTO demo VALUES (345, 'world');")

stmt = sqlite::query(db,"SELECT * FROM demo")

while (sqlite::row(stmt) = sqlite::SQLITE3_ROW)
  if sqlite::fetchhash(stmt,column) then
    print column{"someval"},"\t-\t",column{"sometxt"},"\n"
  end if
wend

sqlite::close(db)

C:\scriptbasic\test>scriba t_sqlite3.sb
123     -       hello
234     -       cruel
345     -       world

C:\scriptbasic\test>

Where did you find that code? It sort of looks like ScriptBasic. SB is telling you that you're calling functions that don't exist.

If you want to use cURL, you have to IMPORT/INCLUDE the curl.bas file first before calling any of the extension module functions.
