  Different Result with one more empty line (*solved*)
Posted by: Luzie - 2016-12-20, 11:08 PM - Forum: Bug Reports - Replies (5)

Hi,

I tried ZX Basic Latest Development Version latest stable version (1.4.0s1968) with BorIDE and discovered the following:

When I compiled a program source-Code with 4 empty lines in it, it crashes the program on my ZX Spectrum.

.zip   ALL_IN_ONE_v4_AND_v5_MCODE_DIR.zip (Size: 7.78 KB / Downloads: 1077)
When I delete one of those 4 empty lines so I have only 3 empty lines, the program runs without crashing.

.zip   TRDOS_v5_MCODE_CAT_to_SCREEN_TEST8_ERROR.zip (Size: 1.29 KB / Downloads: 1147)
I tested with ZX Basic Current Stable Version 1.3.0s1121 and with this, the program runs without crashing
with four or three empty lines.

Tested some more.... with a bigger sourcecode, I also discover the crash,
even on ZX Basic Current Stable Version 1.3.0s1121

.zip   TRDOS_v5_MCODE_CAT_to_SCREEN_TEST6_ERROR.zip (Size: 1.29 KB / Downloads: 1169)
Could you please tell me, what I should avoid in my sourcecodes e.g. foreign characters, empty lines or so?
As I only use ZX Basic with BorIDE for now - is there a way to discover compile errors from windows commandline?

  Different result than expected when poking to screen
Posted by: emook - 2016-12-10, 10:31 PM - Forum: ZX Basic Compiler - Replies (5)

Hello,

In normal basic we can do this following code :

Code:
10 BORDER 0: PAPER 0: INK 6: CLS
20 FOR i=1 TO 7
30 FOR y=0 TO 21
40 FOR x=0 TO 31
50 LET l=22528+x+y*32
60 POKE l,8*i
70 NEXT x
80 NEXT y
90 NEXT i

[Image: tK1VcJ5.png]

To fill the screen with the desired colour (I know this example seems pointless, but the same method to poke a screen char is used quite a bit for me)

however, in ZXB it only seems to pokes to the top third of the screen :

Code:
border 0
paper 0
ink 6
cls

dim i as ubyte
dim x as ubyte
dim y as ubyte
dim l as uinteger

FOR i=1 TO 6
FOR y=0 TO 23
FOR x=0 TO 31
l=22528+x+y*32
POKE l,8*i
NEXT
NEXT
NEXT

Anyone know what I am doing wrong here?

Thanks!
