How does a Small Basic program run?
Today I will explain about how a Small Basic program runs.
If you click [Run] button on the Small Basic environment (SB.exe), it calls Small Basic compiler (SmallBasicCompiler.exe). Small Basic compiler compiles the source file xxx.sb and outputs debug file xxx.pdb and executable xxx.exe . If there are no errors, the Small Basic environment calls xxx.exe . xxx.exe calls SmallBasicLibrary.dll (Small Basic library - dynamic link library) and the dll calls .NET Framework runtime library. Then .NET Framework calls Windows systems library....
