IIRC that should work. Have you tried it without spaces?

Code:

ldx #<routine ldy #>routine

instead of

Code:

ldx #< routine ldy #> routine

Yes, that worked like a charm. Strange though because i thought that i already tried that syntax. Thanx for the feedback

@Mogwai,

Thanks for answering for me. I'm not too lazy to do it myself but I can only get on the PC in the evening!

Besides, this way you have more time for more important stuff, like improving the application

Here's a release of V2.3.0 of CBM prg Studio.

There's a few new features (and bug fixes) for you BASIC and assembly programmers but the main new feature is support for the C16 and Plus/4 machines. Note that these machines are not fully supported as some tools (notably the screen designer) have not been converted to be used fully by them yet, but they will be. You can do the important things though like generating BASIC and assembly code!

As usual, many thanks to the feature requesters, bug hunters and donators who helped with this release!

Enjoy!

Yep, telling it to not show the start page makes it work OK.
No I have not mucked about by editing the cbmprj files in anyway manually.

(but I don't want to turn that start page off! It's quite useful!)

It lets me continue, but I get that error every time I start up.

I tried to clean up my old projects but even when it couldn't find them anymore it still crashed with the error.

I also managed to get the program to crash by pulling the start page out and plunking it somewhere I shouldn't have. It's a heisen bug though. I only did it once and couldn't repeat it.

OK here's something else to try. Start prg studio and then go to the 'recent projects' on the file menu and choose 'clear recent items' (answer yes). Turn the start page back on from the config page and restart prg studio. The recent projects willl be empty but you should be able to add them again by opening and saving your projects.

What a great term, 'heisen bug'!

I was getting the same error on start as Neo-Reo. Your fix of clearing the recent project list worked at first. It is easy to recreate though. I think what caused it for me is that most of my recent projects were missing as far as the program can see. After I complete a project I move it to another folder trying to keep my main project folder a bit less cluttered, and once I do that, the program errors on start the next time.

Also, did you fix the problem with the Commodore key + numbers 1-8 on the Virtual Keyboard? It is still broken on my end.

I ran into another error too. If I try to exit the program with a project open I always get the following error (2.3.0). If I close the project first, no error.

Overall, it looks like a really nice update though. Keep up the good work.

Commodore will live forever!

I see now that the virtual keyboard works from the mouse. I was only looking at it visually without actually choosing a key, and seeing the SHIFTed symbols lighting as it did before.

At least I can close the project first and not see the error as a workaround for now.
_________________

To be honest, the image used for the virtual keyboard is from a VIC 20, I never got around to updating it to show the extra colours.

As for the crash on exit, are there any files in your project which don't exist, or have been renamed?
_________________

No changes that I am aware of, but I have only been testing with 2 pre-existing projects, and several test projects created in the new version.

I can create a brand new project, and have it happen. As long as their is currently a ,bas (have only worked with BASIC projects) file open in the project, the error is generated when closing the program. It does let me close the project first & then exit the program with no error messages though.
_________________

I've been shuffling a lot of my project folders into new folders, and if the PRG studio remembers old projects and goes looking for them in the old location and can't find them, will it crash?

I'd like to say no, but try it and see! Clear the recent file list first (from the file menu) before trying.
_________________

Clearing the recent file list stops the bug from appearing.
So that's your smoking gun.

So all you need to do now is to ignore recent files that are no longer where PRG studio thinks they are, to prevent the start page from bombing out

That's the change I was going to make. Thanks for confirming it.

how come PI gets rendered as the pi symbol?

10 PI=0

becomes a mathematically impossible statement and syntax error after generation into a PRG.

10 {pi symbol} =0

PI isn't a keyword in commodore basic (it is on the spectrum, however!)

PI is treated as a variable on our commies, in any version of BASIC!

I am using windoes server 2008 r2 64 bit

I had no problems with previous versions but when I installed version 2.3.0, I got an error when starting it but it didn't happen again, next when I tried to open a saved project I got an error also but it is gone also, but one remains and happens always, it is when I create a sprite file and try to open it, I always get this error:

( I don't get an error when opening the sprite editor from the tool bar)

I am sorry that this is partially in portuguese.
