Hi everybody,
After doing some extensive work using the object oriented features in PowerBasic I can only say one thing !!! I never go back to procedural programming with PB.
I have some experience with Java and since objects are the only way to go, procedural programming was not a thing to consider.
Now with PB 9.0, objects are for me the only way to go. It gives so much more flexibility in coding.
I just wanted to spread the word, if people haven't used objects in PB or in other language. Please, don't neglect this feature in the new compiler. Once you get the hang of it, you will never go back (unless the application is just too small and you need a quick and dirty approach).
True, OOP requires more thought but this allows for better programming with less errors.
Thanks for reading
Cheers
Steven
