Je m'étais éloigné des écrans pendant un petit moment, j'ai laissé passer pas mal de versions (essentiellement des corrections de bugs), alors me revoici avec une petite annonce qui date déjà du 22 décembre 2023.

We were hard at work to be able to release this new beta of PureBasic so you could play with it during Xmas if you have some holidays 8). It was meant to be a medium sized release, but Fr34k decided to weight in and added a lot of commands, so it's now officially a big release ! Check for yourself:

• Added: WebViewGadget(), BindWebViewCallback(), UnbindWebViewCallback(), WebViewEvaluateScript() (Windows, OSX, GTK3)
• Added: CompareStructure(), CompareArray(), CompareList() and CompareMap() functions
• Added: CustomSortList() and CustomSortArray() functions to Sort library
• Added: CatchPack(), PackEntryDate()
• Added: #PB_Cipher_HMAC flag to fingerprint functions
• Added: CreatePasswordHash() and VerifyPasswordHash() functions (BCrypt algorithm)
• Added: DeriveCipherKey() to create a cipher key from a password (PBKDF2 algorithm)
• Added: SvgVectorOutput() for all OS
• Added: PdfVectorOutput() for all OS
• Added: DateUTC() to get the date in UTC time
• Added: ConvertDate(Date, #PB_Date_LocalTime/#PB_Date_UTC) to convert the date between UTC and localtime
• Added: AddPackDirectory(#Packer, PackedDirectoryName$) for empty directory
• Added: UseDialogOpenGLGadget() to avoid opengl dependencies by default when using dialogs.
• Added: UseDialogScintillaGadget() to avoid big lib dependency by default when using dialogs.
• Added: Case-insensitive subsystem support on Linux
• Added: 'Encoding' optional parameter to OpenPreference() to handle properly UTF-8 files without BOM
• Added: '#PB_Preference_NoBOM' flags for CreatePreference() to create UTF-8 preference files without BOM
• Added: --listfunctions/constants/interfaces and --querystructure support to Windows compiler.
• Added: #PB_EventType_ColumnClick for ListIconGadget()
• Added: #PB_String_EscapeJSON support to EscapeString() and UnescapeString().
• Added: Parent window support to all requesters
• Added: runtime warning if CreateThread() is used without ThreadSafe mode
• Added: #PB_EventType_Refresh support for ExplorerListGadget() (Window only)
• Added: GadgetItemID() support for PanelGadget() (Windows only)
• Added: WebGadget based on Edge component with the #PB_Web_Edge constant (Windows only)
• Added: localhost binding for InitFastCGI()
• Added: SystrayIconMenu() to automatically display a menu when clicking on the icon
• Added: ListIconGaget() column alignment support
• Updated: Toolchain on Windows now use VisualStudio 2022 and new MSVCRT for faster PureBasic programs and easier external libs integration.
• Updated: Date library for full 64bit support (new range is year 1601 to 9999)
• Updated: Minimum version for Linux x86 is now Debian 12
• Updated: Minimum version for Raspberry is now Debian 12 based PI OS
• Changed: Scintilla is now linked statically on Windows (distributing the scintilla.dll along your executable isn't needed anymore)
• Changed: the SysTray lib on Linux now use AppIndicator to support modern Linux distro in GTK3
• Changed: deprecated DESFingerprint() function - use the new CreatePasswordHash() instead.
• Removed: --listpath on Linux/OSX (now use --output to specify the output file)
• Removed: Windows XP support. Minimum supported version is now Windows Vista.

As planed, we dropped the Windows XP support so we can now easily include cutting edge libraries like WebView and remove a lot of patches all accross the code base. Here is a small WebView example to get you started.

• Updated: Unicode file support for Windows compiler
• Updated: Used libvlc instead of the old xine lib on Linux to play movies
• Updated: Reworked the Sound library to use MiniAudio on OS X and Linux (SDL dependency is no more requiered for sounds on Linux).

2024-01-19: beta 3 released, focused on bug fixes and improvements:

• Added: NbMaxChannels parameter for InitSound(). Range from 1 to 254.
• Changed: WebViewGadget(): SetGadgetText() now open an URI like WebGadget() and added SetGadgetItemText() with #PB_Web_HtmlCode
• Updated: Switched for MiniAudio for Windows as well, so all platform should behave exactly the same now. It use WASAPI on Windows by default for best sound quality.
• Updated: Reworked the Music library to use MiniAudio as backend.
• Updated: SQLite version to 3.45.0

2024-02-04: beta 5 is ready to test. It mainly brings a new DPI Aware mode for OS X (the IDE tabs on OS X shouldn't be blurry anymore on retina display, yeah !) and the usual bugs fixes. Don't hesitate to test it and we are close to the final release.

• Added: DPI-Aware support for OS X
• Added: GetGadgetFont(#PB_Default) support on OSX to get the system gadget font
• Added: Documentation is up-to-date now for all new commands (english only)

• Added: All ICoreWebView2 interfaces and constants as residents, thanks to Justin (Windows)

A small example to get the interface on Windows for WebViewGadget()

2024-03-02: beta 7 is ready to test with even more bug fixes and some new stuff:
Added: #PB_2DDrawing_NativeText support for DrawingMode()
Added: #PB_PixelFormat_NoAlpha for DrawingBufferFormat()
Added: ExamineDraggedItems(), NextDraggedItem() and DraggedItemIndex() for Drag'n'drop
Added: GetGadgetItemText() support for ExplorerTreeGadget()

[comtois]

2024-03-13: beta 8 is out for testing ! It brings the following new features and bug fixes:

• Added: New skeleton library create custom skeleton to a mesh
• Added: ScaleEntityBone(), MeshDirectAdd() and #PB_Mesh_Direct mode support to CreateMesh()
• Added: #PB_2DDrawing_NativeText support for Windows
• Optimized: The IDE on Windows is now compiled with the C backend to have faster and smaller executable

[comtois]

2024-03-22: beta 9 is out for testing, it will be hopefully the last beta before final ! It brings the following changes and bug fixes:

• Optimized: SoundVolume() and MusicVolume() changed from integer to float so fractional values are accepted for better precision.
• Changed: removed 'link.exe' from the Windows package and went back to 'polink.exe' (link.exe is not freely redistrituable).

I will remove the automatic path detection for link as it's not robust enough and I will add back the support for a vc/ directory in the compiler folder (so you will be able to copy link and its DLL if needed).

I just pushed a new build for windows (x86 and x64), feel free to download it again it should fix the reported issues.
