How do I check in my code whether its running a) in the gambas development environment Run/Debugging or b) in the "Maked executable".

Maybe this page can help you:

Sapere se il programma Gambas sta funzionando come progetto dall'IDE oppure come eseguibile .gambas - Gambas-it.org - Wikipedia

Thank you vuott

I used to check the filename but it's not entirely reliable if you rename the exe to not have the .gambas ext or use a link (with no ext), but then i found a better way.

Check this out…
/lang/.if - Gambas Documentation

 Exec is set to true for a compiled exe but not when debugging in IDE

So just have something like this in your startup class…


With this method if your exe or the link to it has been renamed to not have the .gambas extension it will still work as expected.

Thanks Bruce. I will use this.
