Re: Weather METARs

Hello again Jack, I noticed it takes a while to load due to a couple of factors. 1. It creates two arrays one after the other using the same info. (Can be changed to create them in the same loop to save time) 2. It loads a 416 item array into the combobox. What I have done is used a stylebit (got it...

Each EXE file is appended with the date/time and placed in a folder named BAS2EXE which is created in DefaultDir$ on first use. Then Explorer opens to the location of the new EXE file. Please read the top of the cod...

Re: A file delete it's self. How to?

Something like this might work, although I've not tried it:

Code: Select all

RUN "cmd.exe /C timeout /t 10 > NUL & del /f /q ""\mypath\myprog.exe"""
END
I have tried this and can confirm it works.
Thanks for posting this. It will be of use to me in future.

BAS2EXE v1.9.2c with commandline support for Liberty Basic is a program I have been working on since my first days with Just Basic v2.0 approximately 2 years ago. I have been adding features to i...

Re: Automate the Creation of the EXE File

I just lucked onto a better more reliable way to verify the created exe file. It removes the 9 second pause, and replaces it with a second verification loop. I also commented the line to kill the created .vbs file. Why keep writing the same file over and over, and deleting it. Also once the exe file...

Re: Automate the Creation of the EXE File

I think I'm right in saying that if there's an existing EXE (in the default location) the various fields in the Compile dialog are automatically populated from that file, which hopefully simplifies things. I'll need to do some research on "the various fields in the Compile dialog" Also wo...
