Talk:Getting FreeBasic

From OHRRPGCE-Wiki

The Mad Cacti: Hang on! We still support FB0.15, don't we? I haven't compiled with it for a couple of weeks, so I don't know if anyone broke support or not. I guess we don't need it anymore, though the FB0.15 version interprets faster

Also, we don't actually support FB0.17 yet, not if GOSUBs don't work properly (Bug 422)

Mike C.: The gosub issue in 422, thus far, has only affected two (related) procedures. I say that we officially support it. Any other issues we find that are affected by that, we'll fix on a case-by-case basis. I've personally gone over the kludge a few times, and I see nothing wrong with it.

[edit] 0.18.0 crashes

The Mad Cacti: Uh... which reproducible crashes are you talking about?

Bob the Hamster: Oh, sorry I didn't clarify. Build the latest SVN with 0.18.0 on Linux, and the play the latest version of Vikings of Midgard. If you try to walk out of Valhalla, you will crash with a segmentation fault, which I backtraced to the GOSUB workaround macro thingy. No such crash occurs in 0.18.5
