QBPE 3.6.0 compiler error

[madscijr]

You didn't say where you extracted the "QB64PE" folder. It should be somewhere in your home directory, but you probably already knew this. (scratch head)

Yes, it's under my /Documents/ folder, just like with the old QB64 2.0.2.

How about going into the "terminal" and trying to compile from there? Giving the program a name like "helloworld.bas" and then doing "qb64pe.exe -c helloworld.bas".

Good idea... OK, I tried it, and am getting the same thing:



here are the contents of "compilelog.txt":

Why does the IDE even allow programs to be compiled out of a source code file which wasn't saved to disk yet?

No idea, LoL. In QB64 2.0.2, typing in a hello world program and running it with F5 generates "untitled.exe" which is fine with me.

Let me give this a try...
Saying this also for people who are still trying to install to "Program Files" because they were used to WindowsXP and earlier. And you did say (before this thread was created) you were still using QB64 v2.0.2, which probably still supported WindowsXP...

I understand, and no, I did not try to install QB64PE under "Program Files". It's under "Documents".

Probably not helping at all...

No worries, I appreciate you trying to help!
