Gambas ONE

Nice interface. Even though it requires the keyboard for number entry, it is a very efficient entry system for this game. I really like the no clicking required action with the mouse. Just hover and enter the correct value. This works well whether you enter the values systematically (aka all the one...

No probs. Suggestions are always welcomed. :) I did some more playing around with the class I uploaded and for some reason its not letting me create an instance at run time. I end up loosing the ability to click things with the mouse. But dropping an instance onto a form works well. So this is not a...

Yes I have seen that. I downloaded that request and merged it into the latest source and successfully compiled it. But I was having trouble getting it to work. And seeing that it has fallen stale by 2 years I figured it isn't coming any time soon. :( So I taking the 'advise' from your signature, &qu...

I've been looking for a way to integrate a joystick into one of my Gambas projects but couldn't find any official support. After doing a lot of searching, I found a wonderful project written by jsbsan on GitHub where he started to reproduce the old video game 1945 in Gambas and it has joystick suppo...

Hey Bruce, any chance of this working on a device file like /dev/input/js0? I tried editing the Pipe line to point to the joystick, and had to rem the Shell echo line as the file is read only. But I'm getting the program lock-up issue you described. Even moving the joystick doesn't unlock the progra...

So it probably is the actual serial port its self that's causing the delay. That may be why I liked the old 80's/90's serial cards. They weren't fancy, but seemed to obey strict communication standards. Unfortunately I can not advise on what would be a good replacement that would work in modern equi...

I'm such a noob!

I remember there being some examples on the old Gambas from years ago. But I didn't see them on version 3 any more. But low and behold there they are.

Thanks!

I've been hoping to look through some more code examples and keep hearing about the "Gambas Farm" but have yet to find it. All the links I've seen have sent me to either blank pages or sent 403 errors (Forbidden). Is the Farm part of an old Gambas site that's no longer available as we're i...

Is it possible that your hardware is buffering the data? I've got two computers that are dedicated to serial transmissions. One is an old 486 DOS based machine, and the other is a Windows 10 on modern hardware with on board RS-232. Both of them are used to talk to the same machine on my shop floor. ...

I've included the SLEEP to allow the read buffer to capture an entire line before the code starts to parse the data. Otherwise I was trying to parse a partial temperature line and then parse the rest later. If the SLEEP starts to be unreliable, I would have to build a buffer and monitor for an end o...
