Hi, first of all Congratulations for your Basic compiler, is the best one I have seen for palm. Second: in the new version 2.0 you say that compiled PRC files must be about 30% smaller, but example PRCs are greater than the ones in V1.0, why?

Greetings from Spain.

 Hello Namek,

Thank you for the congratulations

I did not write that compiled PRC files should be about 30% smaller.
I wrote that the generated p-code is ~30% smaller in average.

An iziBasic source code is compiled into a p-code which is then run in a virtual machine at execution time.
The virtual machine increased of size because of all the new things added in iziBasic v2.0
The p-code stack of max 4000 items is less filled than in v1.0 of about 30%
Overall, the virtual machine size increase is bigger than the p-code resource reducing, so the PRC is bigger.

I am not sure I was very clear in my explanations to you...

Cheers

 This is probably a stupid question, but based on your answer above, I assume that standalone applications do -not- requre iziBASIC to run (the .prc has the runtime built-in), correct?

 Good guess C.K.

iziBasic builds stand alone applications, the runtime is built in the PRC.

Cheers,
