Introduction:

LibComp (LibraryCompiler) is a utility for creating user libraries and residents for the PureBasic language.

User interface

• File Processing - all processing is done here.
• PureBasic Source - display of input PowerBasic source.
• ASM Source - display of generated assembler code.
• DESC Source - display of generated description code.
• Help
• User Libraries - list of current user libraries.
• Residents - list of current residents.

The following sections describe each of the above mentioned tabs.

How does it work?

• Select PureBasic code containing your procedures.

ProcedureDLL.s GetOSName() ;-Get OS Name

  Protected Size

  Protected Name$

  Protected Result

  Protected Key


  Size=#MAX_PATH

  Name$=Space(Size)

  Result=RegOpenKeyEx_(#HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,

    " + #DQUOTE$ + "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion" + #DQUOTE$ + ",0,#KEY_ALL_ACCESS,@Key)" + #CRLF
  If Result=0" + #CRLF
    RegQueryValueEx_(Key," + #DQUOTE$ + "ProductName" + #DQUOTE$ + ",0,0,@Name$,@Size)" + #CRLF
    RegCloseKey_(Key)" + #CRLF
  EndIf" + #CRLF
  ProcedureReturn Name$" + #CRLF
EndProcedure" + #CRLF

• The compile button creates an ASM file containing the assembler code of your procedures, as well as a DESC file containing the description of each of your procedures and the system dependencies necessary for the library.

• The help for each of your procedures is automatically added to the DESC file. You have the ability to modify the content.

• Finally, the Make Lib button creates the library in the "Libraries\UserLibraries" folder of the PureBasic installation folder.

• Restart compiler. (IDE: Menu Compiler -> Restart compiler)
