Requirements

Install 7-zip

You will need 7-zip to extract mingw64 files in the next step.

If you have another archiving software that can extract .7z files, you can skip this step.

Install 7-zip from https://www.7-zip.org/

Install mingw64

  • Download x86_64-8.1.0-release-posix-sjlj-rt_v6-rev0.7z from:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win64/Personal%20Builds/mingw-builds/8.1.0/threads-posix/sjlj/x86_64-8.1.0-release-posix-sjlj-rt_v6-rev0.7z

  • Within the package, find the folder mingw64 and extract it as c:\mingw64

  • Add c:\mingw64\bin to the environment variable PATH

  • If the installation is fine, you should be able to test it with gcc --version

C:\Users\evert>gcc --version
gcc (x86_64-posix-sjlj-rev0, Built by MinGW-W64 project) 8.1.0

Install Git Bash

If you have git in the system, skip this one.

Install Git Bash from https://gitforwindows.org/

Test it with git version:

C:\Users\evert>git version
git version 2.33.0.windows.2

C:\Users\evert>

Install Golang

Install Golang from https://golang.org/dl/

Currently, pick this one: https://golang.org/dl/go1.17.windows-amd64.msi

Test it with go version

C:\Users\evert>go version
go version go1.17 windows/amd64

C:\Users\evert>

Install basgo

  • Download this file:

https://github.com/udhos/basgo/releases/download/v0.10.0/basgo_windows_amd64_v0.10.0.zip

  • Extract these two files into a directory in your PATH:
basgo-build.exe
basc.exe

Test it with basc, like this:

C:\Users\evert>basc
2021/09/01 21:28:21 basc version 0.10.0 runtime go1.17 GOMAXPROC=12
basc: missing input files
usage: basc FILE [flags]
  -basgoBuild string
        basgo-build command (default "basgo-build")
  -baslibImport string
        baslib package (default "github.com/udhos/baslib/baslib")
  -baslibModule string
        baslib module (default "github.com/udhos/baslib@v0.11.0")
  -getFlags string
        go get flags
  -output string
        output file name

C:\Users\evert>

Compilation

Create a sample program

echo 10 print "hello world!" > hello.bas

Compile with basc

basc hello.bas

That basc invokation will output the compiled code into a folder named hello.

Run the compiled program

.\hello\hello.exe

Example

C:\Users\evert>echo 10 print "hello world!" > hello.bas

C:\Users\evert>basc hello.bas
