Hi all, How good is the import function on BMax? I only ask as I'm trying to convert a working BlitzPlus app to Max and seem to be hitting error after error (mainly using types - no suprise there). I'm not daft enough to assume that it'll run without a little extra tweaking, but would it be easier to start from scratch? All comments gratefully appreciated. |

I'm not daft enough to assume that it'll run without a little extra tweaking, but would it be easier to start from scratch? If it doesn't work straight off the bat - yes.Well okay, starting from scratch is a little extreme, porting it manually is much more sensible. |

Yeah, getting there slowly.. got my types working though. Can I associate 2 different types with 2 different lists? eg. atype with alist & btype with blist Also, getting an "expression must be a variable" with entry:String="{ "+winval.ToString()+","+ftr_grn.ToString()+","+ftr_red.ToString()+","+gold.ToString()+","+red.ToString()+","+silver.ToString()+","+Chr(34)+name+Chr(34)+","+entries.ToString()+" },"' Any ideas?.. or have I gone mad? |

Solved. |

'Yes' to the different types in different lists question, but you can mix and match them too, it doesn't matter at all, if you have code that detects between the two types. |

Finally have my app running under Max, not as painful to convert as I initially thought. Few issues with Types to begin with but the Type Tutorial managed to clear that up. Regards, |

I tryed to convert my 15.000 lines app to bmx. Impossible! :/ |

Mine was around 600, so not that much involved. Compiled & ran on Linux first time too.. most impressed. |
