I got an error when compiling exe:
--------------------------------------------------------
The PowerBasic Compiler returned an error during compiling:
Error Number = 516
Error Description = DefType. Type id (?%&!#$), or AS... required: FUNCTIO
End Functio
FORM1 = FORM1.
CONTROL = COMMAND1
MESSAGE = BN_CLICKED
--------------------------------------------------------
Seems the problem is the code contains asian chars (dbcs),
and this error reported if the string length >= 6
FF_TextBox_SetText HWND_FORM1_TEXT1, "大家好"
Sorry about my very poor English!
I expect that the Asian characters characters are causing the code editor to either corrupt or parse incorrectly. I conceed that there may be no fix for this.
Ok, If I convert the text to chr$ style, the code parser will
successful to compile the project!
FF_TextBox_SetText HWND_FORM1_TEXT1, Chr$(164,106,174,97,166,110)
But, the parser will not bypass asian chars even if it is
remarked as description purposes.
Rem 大家好
FF_TextBox_SetText HWND_FORM1_TEXT1, Chr$(164,106,174,97,166,110)
will result the same error as previous mentioned.
Don't know why??
Instead of using the REM statement, try using the single apostrophe to indicate a comment.
Please let me know if that makes any difference.
Unfortunately, using the single apostrophe to
make comment got the same problem.
