Blitz and SQLlite?

I would recommend not dismissing .dat files so quickly. See, any data your program makes use of must be*snip*

Hey, thanks for the detailed tutorial Cucco. But I still have questions on what data is sent and received. Lets see if I can explain what I understand:

Thanks for the reply. I'm still not sure how to actually send and receive cookie data and the like with regular statements (such as connecting by blitz's TCP commands). The Wikipedia page was showing some stuff that would make sense, like "GET /spec.html*snip*

Hey guys, I am interested in making a sort of bot for a certain website game. The problem is, though, that it uses cookies, and requires interaction by html forms. Does anyone know how to have Blitz / Blitz3D send form data, and store & send cookie data?*snip*

Multithreaded Interpreter
16th December 2009

Well, personally I'm not worried about true performance. But, I could possibly keep track of how much work each thread does (as a way for coders to see how much time each thread uses).

Ugh... importing classes from a DLL?!
16th December 2009

Not to diss anyone's work, but this is what I hate so much about C/C++. You can't simply attach a file to your program - you have to work it out with the linker, write a header file, and then it still might not work. I've got no idea how much work it'd t*snip*

Multithreaded Interpreter
16th December 2009

Well, my current plan involves allowing the code to be modified on the program-front. For example, you write code to modify a specific function. This could, perhaps, be converted into an on-the-fly editor, but that can be done by the coder.

Fan grinding sound

We had a computer that had that sound quite a bit. We later discovered it was the fan's blades loose, and would grind against the sides of the guard piece and slow down. We would sometimes hear the sound stop, but that was when the fan stopped all-togeth*snip*

QOTD: How do you keep track of things?
30th September 2009

I keep task lists for programming projects. When I have other things that I need to get done, I'll use my phone's calendar, and get an alert at the given time... of course sometimes I set it to go off too early, and I completely forget!
