IBasic Professional

I recently had the opportunity to test out the IBasic Professional compiler and development environment for Windows, and I must say, it did not disappoint. This software is full-featured and creates small, fast, native executables and DLL's. The modular environment is designed to include new commands that become available separately as add-on command sets (paks). With the purchase of IBasic Professional, an advanced 2D game and graphics command set is included, valued at $39.99!

One particularly notable feature of IBasic Professional is its robust IDE, which sports a source level debugger, integrated GUI designer, and resouce editor. In addition to these core features, IBasic Professional offers many other functionalities that make it an ideal choice for developers at all levels.

Among its most attractive features, IBasic Professional:

-Includes advanced assembler and linker.
-Uses standard Win32 COFF and LIB format object files for compatibility with other languages.
-Supports multi module programming, including unlimited source and include files.
-Comes with an incredibly rich command set, boasting over 300 built-in commands, including built-in music and sound commands.
-Offers extensive operators and math functions.
-Interfaces seamlessly with the Windows API, C runtime libraries, and static code libraries.
-Supports indirect function calls.
-Allows for easy window, dialog, and control creation.
-Facilitates the creation of static libraries for use in other compilers.
-Features built-in web browser commands, making it ideal for those who want to create internet-enabled applications.
-And most impressively, supports inline assembler!

What's more, all tools can be run from the command line or the IDE. And if these features don't meet your needs, there are a variety of available add-on command paks, including easy database commands and advanced 3D DirectX 9.0 command set.

Overall, I found IBasic Professional to be a powerful and user-friendly development environment that delivers on its promises. I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a comprehensive software development environment.
