THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO CHANGE IT Is there any demand? Is anyone interested in doing it? Aurel, there is nothing wrong with making money on your software. The queston is - is it gonna work with QB64? I don't think so. Remember ScriptBasic? Its project manager has tried really hard to make it a solution for business and/or serious programming tasks. Did it work? We both know the answer.

i dont think so
Aurel, there is nothing wrong with making money on your software. I dont say that is wrong making money on open source software . but making money on someone else software without permission is wrong even in todays world we can see a lot of that (tweak,modify and then $$)

You're pushing yourself into the abyss oh tomek into the abyssno tomek noooo..well rosy ...it is not just lack of interest than also lack of knowlege lack of time .... for example just look at thinBasic ..there is almost nobody on forum FBSL is dead ...and some others too most basics... are to much oriented to games only then important part ...basic written on Linux not work same or well on Windows and same problem if is created on Windows ..often work lousy on Linux.

rosyjust one small example try connect this two sdlBasic RCBasic both are SDL based..right? both are crossplatform ...right? rcb is in C++ and i think that sdlbasic is written in C what we will get with this fusion i think nothing...but maybe i was wrong

Should SDL Basic continue to be developed, then the makers of SDL and RC come together, agree on how to merge and continue to develop one product. In the event of the resignation of one of them, the development of the j still is maintained by the other ... It can also be expected that the product will combine the best features of both earlier products.

Aurel, what do you mean by "without permision"? If you choose permisive licence then you automaticaly grant others permison to copy/reuse/modify/fork/sell your work. There is a difference between making money by using a software and selling the software itself. John has tried to make ScriptBasic a serious solution for business. He was looking for developpers to help him maintain and improve ScriptBasic. He also kept advertising it to BASIC users. (Almost) no one was interested. BTW Aurel,Rosy was quotting you when he wrote about the abbys.

Rosy and Aurel,
It is my opinion that the merger of SDL and RCBasic will not happen. Would be cool if it did but I seriously doubt that they will. SDL is still 'alive' - site-wise - but the speed of development has slowed to either 'glacial' or dead stop. If memory serves I think RC was inspired by SDL... Could be wrong. Check with n00b. SDLBasic is still using sdl1.2. SDL2.0 (stable) was released on 13th Aug 2013... I had asked several times if an update would be made... It's been almost 9 years and nothing... I have been using sdlbasic since 2007 and still use it but not as often. Stick with RC as it is still being developed and the forum is more active... If you are waiting for a merger... may I suggest that you do not hold your breath...

Why do you need this SDL update?

Post by johnno56 on Jan 18, 2022 13:06:19 GMT -6
We don't need it 'now'. It was needed back in 2013... When it was advertised, it listed the benefits of upgrading, but the sdlbasic dev team obviously thought, "If it isn't broken then don't fix it..." I cannot recall the benefits, but whatever they were, it doesn't matter any more... *sigh* lol
