Dear thinBasic user,

we just released thinBasic programming language version 1.7.6.0

This new release is mainly a bug fix release for all the bugs reported from previous version but, as usual, we added something new.

  • Improved pre-parsing checking.
    More checking will take place on scripts during pre-parsing phase. Unbalanced flow control structures will now be determined with more accuracy
  • Added a new UI control: Canvas.
    See examples in \thinBasic\SampleScripts\UI\Canvas\ directory
  • Improved ViewPort control.
    Quite complex User Interface scripts can be developed with ViewPorts
  • Improved MLGRID control.
    Is is now possible to perform a basic interaction with MLGRID controls (get/put data), handle notification events, perform a basic layout setup. And this is just the beginning for this fantastic control generously donated by James Klutho to thinBasic project.
    See example in \thinBasic\SampleScripts\UI\MLGRID\ directory
  • Added a new set of functions in UI module that mimic some Windows API functions. A new set of functions whose name start with "WIN_" followed by Windows API function name. Hope this will simplify a bit interaction with Windows Operating System API. If you think more functions are needed, let us know and we will consider your suggestion.
  • Fixed XPRINT module (GPF).


Regards
thinBasic team
