No, there is no Problem with the compiler. But my Code cuts of one or two bytes of a file
I've mixed up the numbers.

Sometimes I transfer .BAS files around and I do this so I know it is the correct version...

Think you all missed the point, although th ey are great suggestions!!!

I was just asking this as a feature enhancement...I can manually update it without a pro blem it's less effort and more reliable to launch the PB icon and manually change it..


Just would be a cool feature to be able to use (enable/disable) in a future version


Thanks tho!

Here is my approach...

Compile EXE and then click on Window, then Options and change the
compiler to point to this EXE.

'BUILD: "4" FOR D:\PBDLL60\PBUPD.BAS ON 07-02-2001 00:13:12 BY Greg Engle

SUB Split(BYVAL expression AS STRING, BYVAL delimeter AS STRING, StrArray() AS STRING)
    LOCAL c AS LONG
    LOCAL x AS LONG

    END IF
    c = MAX(PARSECOUNT(expression, delimeter), 1)
    REDIM StrArray(0 TO c - 1) AS STRING
    FOR x = 1 TO c
        StrArray(x - 1) = PARSE$(expression, delimeter, x)

Hmmm.... there is a Bug in the STRINSERT / STRDELETE part.
But I can't find it (perhaps I'm too tired. It's 2 AM here in Germany )

#COMPILE EXE "pbdll.exe"
#INCLUDE "win32api.inc"

DECLARE FUNCTION FileDateTime(BYVAL Filenam AS STRING) AS STRING

FUNCTION PBMAIN

   cmd$ = COMMAND$ ' save commandline

   bas$ = EXTRACT$(cmd$, ".bas") + ".bas"

'   MSGBOX bas$

   file$ = STRREVERSE$(EXTRACT$(STRREVERSE$(bas$), "\"))

'   MSGBOX file$

   OPEN bas$ FOR BINARY AS #1
        l& = LOF(1)
        GET$ #1, LOF(1), buff$
   CLOSE #1


   FILECOPY bas$, bas$ + ".bak"

   b& = INSTR(buff$, " - Last Modified: ")
   IF b& <> 0 THEN
        buff$ = STRDELETE$(buff$, b& + 18, 18) ' 18 == len(" - Last Modified: ")
        buff$ = strinsert$(buff$, FileDateTime(bas$) + $CRLF, b& + 18)

        c& = INSTR(buff$, "'Filesize:")
        buff$ = strdelete$(buff$, c& + 10, 10)
        buff$ = strinsert$(buff$, STR$(l&) , c& + 10)
   ELSE
        tmp$ = "'" + file$ + " - Last Modified: " + FileDateTime(bas$) + $CRLF _
                + "'Filesize:" + STR$(l&) + $CRLF + $CRLF
   END IF


'Winlog.bas - Last Modified date 6/28/01
'Filesize 123 bytes


   OPEN bas$ FOR BINARY AS #1
        PUT$ #1, tmp$
        PUT$ #1, buff$
   CLOSE #1

   SHELL "pbdll_org.exe " + cmd$, 0


END FUNCTION

FUNCTION FileDateTime(BYVAL Filenam AS STRING) AS STRING
' FileDateTime for PB/DLL 5.0' Copyright (c) 1998 by PowerBASIC, Inc.
LOCAL fd AS WIN32_FIND_DATA
LOCAL fh AS LONG
LOCAL zText AS ASCIIZ * 255
LOCAL st AS SYSTEMTIME
LOCAL Temp AS STRING

zText = Filenam

' -- Find the file
fh = FindFirstFile(zText, fd)
IF fh = %INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE THEN
EXIT FUNCTION
END IF
FindClose fh

' -- Convert the file time from UTC to local time
FileTimeToLocalFileTime fd.ftLastWriteTime, fd.ftLastWriteTime

' -- Convert the file time into a compatible system time
FileTimeToSystemTime fd.ftLastWriteTime, st

' -- Create a date string using the local settings
GetDateFormat %LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, %DATE_SHORTDATE, st, BYVAL %NULL, zText, 255
Temp = zText

' -- Create a time string using the local settings
GetTimeFormat %LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, %TIME_NOSECONDS, st, BYVAL %NULL, zText, 255

' -- Return the file date and time
FUNCTION = Temp + " " + zText

END FUNCTION

P.S.: I know, that's not the best way. The INSTR and STRDELETE / STRINSERT
part aren't a good choice. If someone has a better idea, please post
it here!

P.P.S.: There is also a Bug in the PB IDE:
STRINSERT, STRREVERSE and STRDELETE are highlighted, but
STRINSERT$, STRREVERSE$ and STRDELETE$ are the correct keywords

Greg,
yes, that's my thought. I just sayed "pbedit.exe" because

It would be pretty cool to have the editor open up a .BAS file, insert a comment like:

I'm sure we'll see such a App in the Source-Code section soon

Sven,

I would think you would write a program and call it PBDLL.EXE
then rename the original PBDLL.EXE to PBDLLOLD.EXE and the
PBDLL.EXE calls the PBDLLOLD.EXE with the same switches that
was passed to the PBDLL.EXE

Kind of confusing but I'm sure it would work fine.

------------------
-Greg

[Sven Blumenstein]

Why don't you write an own "pbedit.exe" wich changes the bas File like this an then shell's the original pbedit.exe?
If you don't understand, what I mean, I can write a sample App.

regards,
Sven

Scott,

It wouldn't be very hard at all to make a PB/CC or PB/DLL
application to do that automatically. I'm off for a few days,
I will see what I can dig up.

By the way, on another post about the Enum Add/Remove programs,
I got some source code if you want it, let me know.

------------------
-Greg

[Bern Ertl]

Scott,

I do something very similar and agree that if the IDE could
auto-update a couple of comment lines at the top of the current
file it would be pretty cool...

It would be pretty cool to have the editor open up a .BAS file, insert a comment like:

'Winlog.bas - Last Modified date 6/28/01
'Filesize 123 bytes


as well as any other pertinent information that would let me know..
Sometimes I transfer .BAS files around and I do this so I know it is the correct version...
