Getting the ball rolling. Which VB6 projects are you working on?

Then it never happened, you never wrote any software and we don't believe that you ever did. By the way, it is "too much trubble" (sic).

Whatever, just don't see any reason to take the time to create and upload images or give any more details. I get paid for coding. I do not get paid to cater to your whims.

Then why bother posting at all, just to foster discord?, what a strange person you must be. Are you a petulant teen?

yereverluvinuncleber, I appreciate the initiative of this post, and your enthusiasm to keep it moving, but remember that people participate volunteerly. Some people don't mind to spend a bit of time to share what they're doing, others prefer to keep it small and simple. Looking at the fact that DataMiser has done nearly 14.000 posts, I believe he has done more than his fair share of sharing information on this forum. Give him a break if he doesn't want to free up time for screenshots.

Understood, maybe I misunderstood his attitude, still seems strange to me that he would bother even turning up.

Years ago, python was number one on the list of popular programming languages.
There are only the 20 VB，Maybe in a few years, it will be ranked 50th again.
It could be the last 10.
If the VB family had been cross-platform and statically compilable 20 years ago, py would never have evolved.

The advantage of Py is that it can be used with only twenty or thirty megabytes of decompression.
Vbs, VB6, just this one can kill it.
Think of how difficult it was to install a new version of ie in XP or win7.
In fact, Google or a few hundred million can be decompressed to run, with a volume of only 200 megabytes.
Download 20 seconds. Install for 5 to 10 seconds. Things that can be done in one minute are abruptly turned into 10 minutes and half an hour by Microsoft.


This shows that PowerShell is absolutely 100% wrong. In fact, it is very important for VBS to support the call of.net class library, just do your own thing well. As a result, VB6 (which can be compiled statically) was abandoned, and VB. Net, it was stopped three years ago. No support for static compilation.vbs has added little functionality in 20 years. The excel VBA was also replaced by python. He abruptly gave up his first place to py and became the twentieth, which may never happen again.

I haven't coded in VB6 professionally for over 14 years, just rarely during my sleepless nights. Recently I had a hard drive crash that hosted my old sources and my backup system failed...
I just restored an old VM that I used for R&D in 2007, and there's still life in it... I started to review and comment on old things that I've never seen here for you share them: a curious but very simple personal addin to facilitate the creation of addins and the modification of code in very large projects, another to create MDIChilds (by API) hosted in Dlls, etc... but the code found is not the best and my motivation is low...
Redoing what we have already done, the commentary is not exciting...My nights are sometimes long and I am also working on new projects which motivate me more:
• a very practical Word Addins manager (for *.dotm) but never finished
• Addins which add functionality to “BI Publisher Desktop”
• a fork of the fabulous Krool controls to have styles in VBA and which makes them more VBA compatible..
• and I would like to take some time to get started with TwinBasic and see what it could bring me

and again and again learn from others, from you, the CodeBank experts

I just re-read that post and that one line jumped out at me. So, Thierry, you wake up and can't sleep and so you begin to code in VB6...

Is that because it is therapeutic and calms you? Is VB6 your instinctive 'home' and makes you feel safe?

Very interesting comment that. So much potentially revealed in a line of text.

I am developing a project xiaoyao web IDE, scripting tool.
The goal is to achieve cross-platform.
Language: VB6, twinbasic, VB. Net. C , JS, Python

At present, it mainly solves the problem of vector diagram.
Transparent PNG, infinitely enlarged SVG vector map, web page management background, foreground. Vb used to do background service center. Can be run on the wine above the foreground with the direct operation of the web page

It is planned to develop a mobile version of visual form designer, which can control the management and maintenance of computers.Simple screenshot mode of remote desktop, mouse, finger click screen once screenshot once.

Still working on my game engine.

All the core stuff is in place and working very well.

So now I'm doing a lot of detail work.

I plan to eventually have all settings and multipliers available to the user but for now most of that stuff is internal and you get what I give you.

And what I'm giving you is a 40% multiplier: 1 + (0.40 * current value / max value).
