problem with creating installer package

I am using gambas 3.18.2 on fedora 36. I have found what I consider to be a serious issue. When I create an rpm or install package for my project it does not work. No dependencies are installed not even the gambas runtime. I have to install them all manually then run the rpm. I am not a beginner and...

Re: datediff not returning expected result

thank you I tried the solution but it did not work. Fear not I found a solution. It seems if I tried to send the results of cdate directly to the function I got something 8 hours in the future. If I assigned the cdate result to a date variable then send that to the function it works perfectly. Thank...

datediff not returning expected result

I am having a strange issue. If Abs(DateDiff(CDate(IDDT), Now(), gb.Minute)) > 90 Then T = False where IDDT = "07/18/2023 14:30:00" Now() = "07/18/2023 14:31:12" ---- obviously this changes but that was current value The result of the line is 482 which clearly is not minutes nor ...

Re: fedora repo

yep that is what I am looking at. Getting on things like rpm fusion etc. but the directions lost me after the 2nd 20 step reference to another guide to follow and something about the sacrifice of a live chicken by the light of the full moon at midnight. My own repo is no different than what I do. I ...

Re: fedora repo

I love that you have the same sense of humor. The links only tell me how to add repos not how to put our gambas software into a repo for public download. Sort of not quite on target.

But thanks for the advise I will get more chickens to sacrifice, worst case is a lot of eggs or a great bbq.

fedora repo

I work mostly in Fedora so I am wondering if anybody can help with getting some of my projects added to a repo. I have looked it up and I think I stopped at the point where I have to sacrifice a live chicken at midnight during a full moon. I am looking for something simple. If your process takes mor...

Re: color button to rgb

thank you. You put me on the right track. I modified the code you gave so it returns a string "RRGGBB" padded properly and seems to be giving me dead on color to pass on. Public Function GetRGB(ArgColor As Integer) As String Dim r, g, b As Integer Dim RGB As String r = Shr(ArgColor, 16) An...

color button to rgb

I need to convert the value of the color button to a RGB value and I am unable to find how to do this. It means I am overthinking again. I just need to convert the color button value to the proper RGB value. I tried converting to hex but that does not give good results on custom colors. Can somebody...

Re: A Gambas Compiler

actually I do not do the dev at all. I stick to the stable released in the repo from fedora. Yes the problems are not common but when they happen they tend to be crippling to my production environment. Please never take this as criticism as I think the Gambas project is amazing and has my total supp...

Re: A Gambas Compiler

Let hope that perhaps our geniuses that created Gambas can make it simple to do. Perhaps a single mouse click on a menu item in the IDE and maybe a few options to check and poof we have an app image. I would love this if for no other reason than that nearly every time a new Gambas version is release...
