LBB as a "console application creator" origins
Post by michael on Sep 17th, 2015, 4:32pm

I had questions burning in my mind as of lately, about the platforms like Liberty Basic and LBB and C...
Liberty Basic works under shop talk systems -which I don't understand
LBB claims to be able to create console type creations.
Yet as far as I know it cant make DLLs
C and C++ work from this pyramid:
machine language
assembly language
c
c++
( C and c++ are related because they are necessary to make DLLs for Liberty Basic and LBB)
I studied the origins of BBC - LBB and I cant figure out where its origins begin.

Was LBB created using this pyramid
machine language
assembly language
BBC - LBB?

LBB is itself a (BBC) BASIC program, and not a particularly large one: just under 7000 lines of code for the IDE. The BBC BASIC interpreter is written in assembly language (around 64 Kbytes).
