[VB6] Modern Shell Interface Type Library - oleexp.tlb

[xiaoyao]

I don't understand. Why are you talking about me? I haven't left a message on this subject for a long time. I think the type Kuti currency file has two versions of 64 bit and 32 bit.

It would be even better if there was a way to extract parts of the TLB for different needs.
Because a 5mb TLB is not very convenient to carry after all.
Sometimes Excel, 64-bit and 32-bit, needs a small amount of functions.
The TLB needs to be registered successfully before it can be referenced in Excel.

Pecially the TLB files generated by the VB net DLL. Do not know whether it can be used without importing the registry?

Nobody has mentioned you here in months, there's still no 64bit oleexp (and there probably won't be), and it's silly complaining about a few mb when every else requires hundreds of MB if not GB of SDKs, frameworks, or libraries. It's an open source project if you want to just use some small part, the source is there.

It would be nice if twinbasic supported automatically extracting a function or module from a project.
For example, the Enterprise Control has a total of 30 files. If I only need a text box control for Unicode.Redundant modules and lines of code are automatically removed.
Is a function or a module that depends on which APIs declare DLLs or other functions.
If you need to compile some of the TLB types separately. It is not known which dependencies he used. Maybe ai can handle it automatically in the future.

Is the current chatGPT, it can not directly import hundreds of kb or even several megabytes of source code, and then it automatically clean up the redundant code.

This thread is about oleexp.tlb, not twinBASIC features.

I do use TwinBasic if I "have to", I am subscriber, but its editor (the one I currently use is from Dec 2024) is a real pain to use unfortunately. It behaves like the .NET editor. It is just slow and does nasty things.
I will fully switch to TwinBasic fully once I can work with it as fast as in VB6.

There were some IDE performance issues after the first releases in December that were fixed in recent builds; but other than that not sure what you mean... nasty things? Personally I love all the modern features the VB6 IDE lacks. I work a lot faster with things like regions, code folding, advanced info popup, global search that displays all results at a glance, all the issues detected before running you can jump to with a click, the IDE not throwing up a message box on every syntax error, etc. It's a little bit of an adjustment but well worth it.

If something you're working on is causing the IDE to be slow, please file a bug report.

Don't complain in general, raise specific issues on github here, https://github.com/twinbasic/twinbasic/issues. My experience is that many of our suggestions or bugs raised are being definitely being addressed. There is no chance your voice will be heard if you just moan that the IDE is a real pain. I've raised several so far, feel free to raise your own.

Why hasn't Wayne released the official version yet? It means that it is constantly adding new features to make it more compatible with VB6. It is like a child of all of us. If everyone could contribute to the cost, the development would be faster and Wayne would have enough money to recruit new employees.Without increasing the volume of the program as much as possible. Make up for some of the most important shortcomings of returning to B6. Become a more advanced and convenient programming language, which can be used in 51 or newer computer systems. Currently, his program is only 30 megabits. Maybe version 2, version 3, it will go up to 300 megabytes, two gigabytes.

It's a little off topic. But I hope you can know more people. In the past, the administrator of this forum liked to delete all the topics about special qualifications and transfer them to the corner where no one saw them at all.Now we should all think of it as a VB6 IDE. Upgrade version.

As someone said a few days ago, it is too difficult to add some new sections in this forum. Maybe this forum will go bankrupt in two years.With the rapid development of the Internet and AI, it is more and more difficult for traditional websites to make money, and it is only a matter of time before they are closed. It is possible that all the source code will be lost directly, and he will not copy it to us.

It is VERY off topic.
