Compiling ScriptBasic 2.1.0 on a modern Linux

(1/2) > >>

Jmcbride:
I finally got what I thought was a clean compile and install of scribasic 2.1.0. However, I'm seeing this when executing the example programs. Is 2.2.0 less buggy?

spike examples # scriba array.bas
array.bas(1): error &H77:syntax error during checking the line and also noting that the syntax error so serious that none of the other syntax defintions can match the current line

Support:
Please post the code to array.bas.

I'll be happy to take a peek and see what might be the problem.

Script BASIC has been production stable for over 10 years with no known bugs. I think you should look closer at your code.

FYI: Script BASIC will not execute faulty syntax/code and returns an error code instead.

To save server storage space. The source code you request in in the examples directory.  Is there a download link for the 2.2 sources somewhere?

Jerry,

The array.bas example that I inherited with the 2.1 release from Peter Verhas seems to work as intended under Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit. I added a couple newlines for clarity.


--- Code: Script BASIC ---a[5,3]=4c = a[5]print a[5,3],"\n",c,"\n" 

jrs@laptop:~/sb/source/examples$ scriba array.bas
4
ARRAY@#00A706C8
jrs@laptop:~/sb/source/examples$


Something more fun.


--- Code: Script BASIC --- a[1000000,1]="one"a[1000000,2]="two"a[1000000,3]="three" REF b = a[1000000] PRINT "Simple as ",b[1],", ",b[2],", ",b[3],". (million)\n" b[1] = 1b[2] = 2b[3] = 3 PRINT a[1000000,1] + a[1000000,2] + a[1000000,3],"\n" 

jrs@laptop:~/sb/sb22/test$ time scriba reftest.sb
Simple as one, two, three. (million)

Well. I guess at this juncture it's time for me to move on. Thank for the help and the 2.2 sources. 
Good bye.
