DDgui *FATAL ERROR* report in compilation

[CCJ]

Hi all,

When compiling the DDgui project files from the "DDgui_proportional" download [unmodified] I get the following compilation error output:

The DDgui project is documented as having been created in 2008 with version 5 of GLBasic-- did something big change since then that would have caused this example program to fail?

Thanks,

Yes, there have been a lot of changes - both to DDgui and the language itself

If you want to use DDgui, the current version is available in Samples/Common

Aha, yes well that would cause a problem.  Even in the most recent build [that I can find by going into Showroom -> DDgui] you have to find/replace all instances of the apparently outdated FILLRECT command with DRAWRECT for it to work... Otherwise the compiler simply reports "syntax error," which isn't a whole lot of help.  Anyway, thanks for the help!
