  • 2D-Spieleprogrammierung in Freebasic
    Dieser Abschnitt behandelt QuickBASIC und dessen abgespeckte Version QBASIC gleichermaßen; der Einfachheit halber wird nur von QuickBASIC gesprochen. Wer noch nie mit QuickBASIC in Berührung gekommen ist, kann den Abschnitt getrost überspringen – er ist eher für Programmierer interessant, die von QuickBASIC zu FreeBASIC wechseln wollen. Trotz hoher Kompatibilität zu QuickBASIC gibt es eine Reihe von Unterschieden zwischen beiden BASIC-Dialekten. Einige davon beruhen auf der einfachen Tatsache, dass QuickBASIC für MS-DOS entwickelt wurde und einige Elemente wie beispielsweise direkte Hardware-Zugriffe unter echten Multitaskingsystemen wie höhere Windows- Systeme oder Linux nicht oder nur eingeschränkt laufen. Des Weiteren legt FreeBASIC größeren Wert auf eine ordnungsgemäße Variablendeklaration, womit Programmierfehler leichter vermieden werden können. Hinweis: Mit der Compiler-Option -lang qb kann eine größere Kompatibilität zu QuickBASIC erzeugt werden. Verwenden Sie diese Option, um alte Programme zum Laufen zu bringen. Mehr dazu erfahren Sie im Kapitel ??, S. ??. • Nicht explizit deklarierte Variablen (DEF###) In FreeBASIC müssen alle Variablen und Arrays explizit (z. B. durch DIM) deklariert werden. Die Verwendung von DEFINT usw. ist nicht mehr zulässig. • OPTION BASE Die Einstellung der unteren Array-Grenze mittels OPTION BASE ist nicht mehr zulässig. Sofern die untere Grenze eines Arrays nicht explizit angegeben wird, verwendet FreeBASIC den Wert 0. • Datentyp INTEGER QuickBASIC verwendet 16 Bit für die Speicherung eines Integers. In FreeBASIC sind es, je nach Compilerversion, 32 bzw. 64 Bit. Verwenden Sie den Datentyp SHORT, wenn Sie eine 16-bit-Variable verwenden wollen. • Funktionsaufruf Alle Funktionen und Prozeduren, die aufgerufen werden, bevor sie definiert wurden, müssen mit DECLARE deklariert werden. Der Befehl CALL wird in FreeBASIC nicht mehr unterstützt.

  • Freebasic-Einsteigerhandbuch
    FreeBASIC-Einsteigerhandbuch Grundlagen der Programmierung in FreeBASIC von S. Markthaler Stand: 11. Mai 2015 Einleitung 1. Über das Buch Dieses Buch ist für Programmieranfänger gedacht, die sich mit der Sprache FreeBASIC beschäftigen wollen. Es setzt keine Vorkenntnisse über die Computerprogrammierung voraus. Sie sollten jedoch wissen, wie man einen Computer bedient, Programme installiert und startet, Dateien speichert usw. Wenn Sie bereits mit Q(uick)BASIC gearbeitet haben, finden Sie in Kapitel 1.3 eine Zusammenstellung der Unterschiede zwischen beiden Sprachen. Sie erfahren dort auch, wie Sie Q(uick)BASIC-Programme für FreeBASIC lauffähig machen können. Wenn Sie noch über keine Programmiererfahrung verfügen, empfiehlt es sich, die Kapitel des Buches in der vorgegebenen Reihenfolge durchzuarbeiten. Wenn Ihnen einige Konzepte bereits bekannt sind, können Sie auch direkt zu den Kapiteln springen, die Sie interessieren. 2. In diesem Buch verwendete Konventionen In diesem Buch tauchen verschiedene Elemente wie Variablen, Schlüsselwörter und besondere Textabschnitte auf. Damit Sie sich beim Lesen schnell zurechtfinden, werden diese Elemente kurz vorgestellt. Befehle und Variablen, die im laufenden Text auftauchen, werden in nichtproportionaler Schrift dargestellt. Schlüsselwörter wie PRINT werden in Fettdruck geschrieben, während für andere Elemente wie variablenname die normale Schriftstärke eingesetzt wird. Quelltexte werden vollständig in nichtproportionaler Schrift gesetzt und mit einem Begrenzungsrahmen dargestellt. Auch hier werden Schlüsselwörter fett gedruckt. Der Dateiname des Programms wird oberhalb des Quelltextes angezeigt. Quelltext 1.1: Hallo Welt ’ Kommentar: Ein gewoehnliches Hallo-Welt-Programm CLS PRINT "Hallo FreeBASIC-Welt!" SLEEP 5 END ii Einleitung Es empfiehlt sich, die Programme abzutippen und zu testen. Die meisten Programme sind sehr kurz und können schnell abgetippt werden – auf der anderen Seite werden Sie Codebeispiele, die Sie selbst getippt haben, leichter behalten.

Distribution of this memo is unlimited. OVERVIEW This RFC is a snapshot of the ongoing process of the assignment of protocol parameters for the Internet protocol suite. To make the current information readily available the assignments are kept up-to- date in a set of online text files. This RFC has been assembled by catinating these files together with a minimum of formatting "glue". The authors appologize for the somewhat rougher formatting and style than is typical of most RFCs.
