Title: GLBasic, not for games
Post by: Qedo on 2011-Apr-30
Hello everyone,
I want to write a program (especially for smartphone) management training for runners , and then I also manage the data base even if very simple, tables and graphic.
My question is: is GLBasic  a programming language suitable for this purpose?
Thank you

If you post a more detailed list of features, requirements and functionality, I'm sure it would be much easier to give you an answer as to how easy/hard it would be to make in GLBaisc. :)

As I said I would use the database as well as use of tables and charts as excel, see picture ..

a picture speaks a thousand words:

Even though GLBasic is great, it's really not very well suited for your kind of application.
For your style of application, I wold rather recommend Titanium Appcellerator or PhoneGap as both of them already got all the functionality you need.

Well, you can do that easily, I think.
If you want the graphics on the screen, it's possible. Either just draw them with the text functions, or use some higher level GUI like DDgui or the Tcl/Tk wrapper. I personally would just write out a HTML page for printing and include a pie graphic that was created with GLBasic (SAVESPRITE as PNG).
