Arg, you nerd! It's func pointer, not funk pointer!

Shoo away!! "Funk" is Funkier.

I ment functions and sub that are specific to a custom TYPE variable...Object Oriented Programming

Example

Code:

TYPE  Album    name AS STRING    caption AS STRING    FUNCTION  set_data(n$, c$)END TYPEFUNCTION set_data(n$, c$)   '  "this" is used because the function   this->name = n$          '   is specific to the variable declared   this->caption = c$       '   as type Album.END FUNCTIONso..DIM MyAlbum AS AlbumMyAlbum.set_data("my name", "my caption")     or MyAlbum->set_data("my name", "my caption")

Do I make more sense?

Can be emulated using Funk pointers.

Thanks Levi. You answered my question as I was clearifying my question.

Rather dealing with Classes, Virtual Functions, and PolyMorphism. That's what makes Object Oriented Programming, OOP.

This is what how I have come to understand as OOP. However I suppose my question delt with OOP "commonly misunderstood." Simply, manipulating a TYPE's variable with TYPE specific functions.

Perhaps this could come to be known as simple OOP or, BASIC OOP. I would very much love to see an implementation of such a concept in FreeBASIC....

I think I've spoken too much

Object Oriented Programming itself, not yet. Or so I was told.

Simply dealing with objects is not what Object Oriented Programming is about. A very common mistake.

Rather dealing with Classes, Virtual Functions, and PolyMorphism. That's what makes Object Oriented Programming, OOP. Otherwise even C could do OOP. Which, it can't.

Yes it does.

Type
Sub
Functions

I've read a lot about this...freebasic. I must say, this may be what I've been unconsciously looking (aka, the urge to program qbasic with the limitations and weak processing power).

I'm curious though. I see a lot of functionality has been added to the basic language with freebasic, but does it support TYPE SUBS and FUNCTIONS. More commonly know as Objects, in turn, Object Oriented Programming??
