hey gang, I'm going crazy!! here is the code:



Now looking at this simple code you would assume it would print..
hello
there
hellothere

Instead!! it prints...
there
there
therethere

Its like the array sets all the values within itself to the last value assigned to any index.

I am using dbpro 1.075 is this a bug????


HELP PLZ!!! DRIVING ME NUTS!!!

Weird, works fine for me, I'm on the latest version of DBPro too.

Maybe you have a plugin that uses the word 'message' as a function.

It won't compile for me as 'message' conflicts with Blue Gui. When I shift that to one side, the code compiles and runs as expected.

Perhaps the OP should reapply the update and see if that fixes the problem.

It works for me too. If reinstalling the update doesn't work you should uninstall and reinstall Darkbasic Pro then update.

Balid, Grog, I'm guessing you don't have the BlueGUI plugin either. It's caused by a conflict with the 'message' keyword - I don't think reinstalling would fix it, it's best to just change the array name as proven by Baxslash.

Didn't IanM point out that it won't compile in that case instead of giving weird results?

It should still compile, it will just give a warning in the compiler window about the name conflict, and you have to manually run the EXE afterward (F8)

Unless different naming conflicts give different results. But that was my experience when having Styx installed and using Matrix Utilities 16

It shouldn't compile if the syntax is wrong. If the Plugin expects message() to have two arguments but you only give one for example. The compiler won't know your intention.

I do have BlueGUI... I just didn't have it installed on my current computer since I don't use it anymore. I did just install it to see his code snip not work but I doubt he has BlueGUI. For those of us that have BlueGUI it won't even compile because of the keyword conflict but he mentioned the input he sees so he does get the program to run conflict free. It must be an update problem.

@Big Niemenator has not commented on any of these possible fixes yet. I suggest letting him have a go and report back if nothing works.

My guess is he's already solved it as he was "going crazy" but obviously not so crazy as to say thank you or post his own fix...

Yes, I sometimes wonder whether every new forum member's posts ought to be moved to the Newcomers board as a matter of routine. It gets annoying when they join to ask one question on this board and then don't have the courtesy to comment on the replies.

I'm gonna lock this, as the originator seems to be ignoring it. The problem I have with moving posts, is that newcommers just won't find them - then they go and complain about posts being deleted, or re-post the same thing. Otherwise, I would probably move a lot of threads over to newcommers.
