are there any binaries to test yet? I'd like to use BASS in an upcoming win/linux game.

lagarto, do the header files that are included with freebasic work with bass for linux? or have you done this port yourself?

[Ian @ un4seen]

are there any binaries to test yet?

Yes, there has been for a few months now

I am planning to post a public beta here once all of the examples have been ported. Only the CUSTLOOP example is left to do, so that should be fairly soon, but if you like, I can email you the current stuff to try now.

[saga]

i'd like to try it, you may send it to the email in my profile here.

[Ian @ un4seen]

The Linux beta is now available in the first post!

[saga]

Cool!
I can also say that I didn't have any problems with the pre-release you sent me so far.

Hello everybody, im back from africa.
So happy to see that Bass exists for Linux now.
I use Lazarus in Ubuntu and i try to use bass in it.
If i add in USE bass, i get a message from  the compil that bass need Windows instructions.
Wich Pascal code do i need to load bass in Lazarus Linux (Lazarus works also with Windows, it is like Delphi but free.)?¿
Thanks for your help.

[Ian @ un4seen]

As it happens, one of the earlier testers did update the Delphi unit (BASS.PAS) for use with Linux. I have now added that to the beta package (in the "pascal" directory).

Hello Ian, thanks for the quick answer.
I have tried the bass.pas with Lazarus in Ubuntu but the compiler say that bass.pas call Windows library....

[fredvs]

Ooooops i didnt see BASS.PAS in your new release...(and it seems different of the original one).
I gonna test it this night.
Thanks

Hmm.. any plans for linux-amd64 version?

Hi everybody, hello Ian.
I have tried to compile a demo prog using bass in Lazarus for Linux.
If i add BASS in USES (from your Pascal Linux pre Release), it compile with no problem but when i execute the compiled prog, nothing appends...even if i dont use any of the bass function.

Maybe i forgot to do something with the bass library?¿

Thanks for your help.

Re-hello everybody.
I use Lazarus for Windows and Linux, (it is a RAD Pascal free).
I have developped a bass-test prog, if i compile it with Lazarus on a Windows system, everything perfect, compilation with no stress and a exe-file working.

If i compile it on a Linux system, compilation OK, a executable is created but it does not work. If i dont insert Bass in USES, it execute perfectly but without access at bass procedures of course.

Why do it crash if i add in USES bass, even if i dont use any Bass procedure ?¿

What must i do with the libbass.so ?¿

Thanks to all of the Linux Champions.

[fredvs]

Im the Champion....

To install the bass lib in linux :

sudo cp libbass.so /usr/local/lib   (to copy bass library into linux lib)

sudo chmod a+rx /usr/local/lib/libbass.so   (to load the lib)

sudo ldconfig  (to autoconfig)

And my first Bass prog compiled with Lazarus on Linux works like a charm.

Thanks Ian, lot a thinks to translate now and Viva Ubuntu.

[saga]

not all steps are neccessary, i think. I myself copied libbass.so to /lib and that's it. I was able to use it inside FreeBASIC without any further configuration.

Hi Saga.
Whouaw, its so simple....

Any idea how to bild a script to install it automatic ?¿ 

Maybe with a .sh script..?

[saga]

I don't know much about linux myself. but yeah, either you use bash or you create a packet (for example a DEB packet for ubuntu and debian).

[Ian @ un4seen]

Hmm.. any plans for linux-amd64 version?

I have now added an x64 build to the beta package (in the "x64" directory). Please report how you get on with it.

Hi to all.
More simple example using Basic RAD-GAMBAS 2.9 ( VB for Linux ).

Thanks to all

Hello Ian, hello everybody.
Im working with Bass for Linux.
With Lazarus, everything OK but.... i have problems with  BASS_ChannelSetDSP. (same problems with your example Ian).

I have used your example DSPtest and when i compile it :

rotdsp := BASS_ChannelSetDSP(chan, @Rotate,0, 2);


 i get the error :

Error: Incompatible type for arg no. 3: Got "ShortInt", expected "Pointer"

I have tryed with

rotdsp := BASS_ChannelSetDSP(chan, @Rotate,nil, 2);

but also error...

What is the problem

Otherwise, thanks a lot Ian to care about Linux.

PS. Is it possible to use the DX effects with Linux (linux dont use DX).

[saga]

since the dx effects are built into dx8 and later, i don't expect them to work.
