QB quicklibrarys with C

The Walrus · Post by **The Walrus** » Tue Sep 20, 2005 8:04 am

Anyone who knows how to make QB quicklibrarys with C or where I can find a tutorial on this subject? I know it's possible but I don't know how I would do it.. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I would like to know too...

I did some internet research on the subject

.

One thing I did know is that you'll need one of these for this task. Microsoft C version 5.10 and QuickC versions 1.01 and 2.00

Here's a PDF that talks about mixed language programming in Basic.

should answer alot of your questions.

EDIT: Pete has, on his site, a smaller document about the subject as well:

Hope this helps

your still going to need a 16 bit C compiler. i don't belive you can get away with using DJGPP so your going to have to pick up one of the older Borland Turbo C. or if you can find it Quick C (kind of like QB Same IDE)

I have Turbo C 2.01, that should work

Should anyone be interrested Borland has released it for free here: http://community.borland.com/article/im ... /tc201.zip

I downloaded Turbo C 2.01 about a week ago. Funny coincidence. I have still to make a program that works the way I expect. C syntax is so weird...

Yeah, took me a while to get used to it.. But I found a really great tutorial site here: http://www.cprogramming.com/tutorial.html#ctutorial

That helped me quite a lot

Hey! I have been learning C++ there for quite a while. Although it is mainly for C++, I imagine its C tutorials are really good too.

C is really easy once you understand the fact that you have to be an uptight anal programmer to use it.

I am only using/learning it so I can help with some FB stuff and QB.

Yeah... but you gotta admit, it is kinda... crappy once you have discovered the power, versitality, and ease or FB.

Amen to that NAthan

C still has a few advantages over FB, but you really only see them if you're an advanced C programmer. Most of us don't code in a way that can't be done quicker in FB...it's a pretty good tradeoff, so there's really no need to go with C if you can accomplish the same tasks in FB.
