Glbasic V8

[MrTAToad]

Just to let you know that GLBasic V8 is now out.

In addition to the GP32/GP2X/WIZ support, it is now possible to compile for the OpenPandora platform.

More information can be found at GLBasic website

Nice. What's with Caanoo support?

Aside from the software's author not having one (as far as I know), I dont think he feels that there is sufficient need to support it. If you feel differently about it, you could always email him

 

[sbock]

This is sad as there're a few great software coders making stuff for the GP2x/Wiz (e.g. iprice or Schnatterplatsch) and can't convert it to the Caannoo...

Can a mod please move this topic to another section(s) as it is misleading in the Caanoo section?

 

[MrTAToad]

Yes, this should be in the WIZ (or even Pandora) section - but for some reason ended up here... :blink:

Does the free version work with Gp2x/Wiz?

Does the free version work with Gp2x/Wiz?

Yes, but its a timed-limited demo (5 minutes apparently).

So this will build executables to run on Pandora, or does it require a player-exe or something?

Anyone got it for Pandora yet? I'd love to know if it works well enough to do real games development ..

from what i know, GLBasic translates basic code to c code and then uses a native compiler to build the final executable. so no need for some fancy player exe

 

[MrTAToad]

Thats rights - its a full compiler...

Apparently the OpenPandora has very limited Windows support at the moment, so GLBasic compiles your code to C and then you need to compile to the C on the Pandora machine. I dont't know anyone with the machine, so I cant say how well all it goes, except to say, its a bit slow...

Gernot said to me that he will built in the Caanoo.
