Pure Basic on Raspberry-pi computers??

Post by wimapon »

Hi, i am using purebasic now for a few years on linux and windows computers.
I am very happy with it!
But now i am thinking about using the popular rasberry-pi computers.
On this computers is the operating system "Debian squeeze" running.

Question: can i use pure basic on this operating system on the raspberry-pi?

Hi,To the best of my knowledge no,the PI use`s a different CPU ,and whilst Debian has been compiled to run on many different systems,Purebasic does not run on the CPU system used in the PI.

Yes, it's not possible because PB does not support the ARM platform.
Maybe SpiderBasic is an option for you, otherwise you'll have to look for other (BASIC) alternatives.

What is the purpose of your embedded computer like RBP?

Try this is you need something similar and price competitive. Or if you don't require any (at the moment) video output at all, see Intel Edison, I'm waiting for mine to come and test PB on it! :)

for example B4J:
B4J is a 100% free development tool, similar to B4A that generates desktop, server and web applications.
B4J follows the same concepts of B4A and B4i, providing a simple and powerful development tool.
The compiled apps can run on Windows, Mac, Linux and ARM boards (such as Raspberry Pi).

Well, i do use Pure Basic compiler for my Pc-programs and BASCOM for my
microprocessors (AVR). What i do is mostly measuring and datalogging and
stiring of all kind of hardware. So i have a satelite tracking system and
a interferometry radio telescope. This use a lot of home made software and
a lot of calculating.

I am an old man, and i hate to learn other dialects or other languages.
So that is the reason whatfore i think i can not use a raspberry-pi.

anyhow, i will have a look at B4J. Thanks for the link kiffi.

FreeBasic is available for the Raspberry Pi http://www.freebasic.net/forum/viewtopi ... =5&t=21433
if you are interested in using FreeBasic on the Raspberry Pi here are helpful instructions http://www.freebasic.net/forum/viewtopi ... 17&t=22815
also some people do interesting things with the Wolfram Language, for example http://www.wolfram.com/raspberry-pi/ and http://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/157473

Maybe BaCon could be an option for you.
