Compiling hello world error

[ChrisRMoore]

Hi,

Following getting started here https://dotneteer.github.io/spectnetide/getting-started/setup-zx-basic#article

Compiling simple 2 line program:

results in error: Z0100: Unexpected token: '.'

The asm file seems to have these additional .s:

If I remove them and run the .asm file it works.

How can I stop them being generated in the first place?

I've just set up ZXBasic and SpectNet using ZXBasic 1.9.9. I typed in the two line program above, and it worked for me.

If you're using one of the new beta versions, there may be a bug in it, try rolling back to a prior version. I think the last stable version is zxbasic-1.14.0-win32.zip , but I already had 1.9.9 and I know that used to work okay.

If you have a stable win32 version of the zxbasic, zip up the project and attach it to a comment, there may be a problem with the project itself, or something snapped inside SpectNet.

Hi,

Many thanks for coming back.

I was using 1.14.1 which is linked as the latest stable version here: https://zxbasic.readthedocs.io/en/docs/archive/

I downloaded 1.14.0 and changed the setting path but I get the same issue when I right-click and select Compile Code.

The "."s it doesn't like are in the .asm file

Path to settings

I managed to get this same sine wave drawing code to work from VS Code:

And it works fine in Fuse

I'm probably doing something stupid but not sure what.

PS - I used this one, should I use a different download? I'm on Windows 10

Spect net's not been updated in a little while. Maybe try zxb 1.9.9 and see if that works for you... Might just be a misalignment between the two.

Using 1.9.9-Win32 seems to work, which is good enough for me. Thanks again

I'm sure once Istvan resurfaces he'll find the discrepancy and resolve it.... Afaicr, most of the changes recently have been optimisations, so in the meantime you should be good to use spectnet to develop and then do your final compile with zxb 1.14 if you need to deploy.

This is a known problem, SpectNetIDE doesn't supports dots on the assembler labels and ZXBasic starter using these in V 1.13 i think. There is an experimental version that supports the dots on the assembler here: https://github.com/Dotneteer/spectnetide/issues/205
