Tips & tricks / Re: Tutorial: How to use the Text Object Model (TOM) in Pelles C Part 1 of 2

Thank you for all your replies.

Now I understand - I did not realise that 'Load Type Library' was an add-in.

I haven't had time to explore the use of the available add-ins yet as I only started to use Pelles C a few months ago (after using it back in the 2000's). I have just done a quick search on this forum for information on the addins provided with Pelles C but there did not seem to be any information about these. It may be helpful for newcomers to Pelles C to have a 'sticky' topic on this forum that briefly describes each of the addins provided with Pelles C.

The COM plain 'C' header generator looks really useful - I will have to familiarise myself with that software when I get time.

That data should be related to the software products distribution.
The big explosion of web applications requires a large use of web programming languages, this leads to the grow of script languages, HTML, javascript, python, etc.
Similar reasons drive the grow of multiplatform languages/frameworks (Azure and similar).
Making 100% the whole, those new programming field apparently seems to occupy the 90%, but this is exactly the growth, more or less, of new applications. Conclusion the use of imperative strong languages, as C/C++, are the same.
Why? Because an OS, time critical programs, high efficiency computation, requires them, C/C++ and even FORTRAN sometimes. 

Anyway the software/hardware development always follows the dog-tail law: when a more powerful hardware is created there always follow a new OS or language or user interface to make it slow!

While there is a big propaganda behind the popular scripting languages, the C language is not losing it's importance.

Eventually you can try also this.

Hi KunJohn,

Welcome to Pelles C forum.

I agree with you. The artificial intelligence is powered by big compainies investing a lot of efforts and money. Time will help to improve the quality of the code written by the artificial intelligence.

'Load Type Library' option is from Add-In
typelib. dll


EDIT:

I read somewhere recently that AI already uses probably 9 programming languages..but integrating AI software into an already diverse business environment requires the use of a range of programming tools, such as several languages, frameworks and libraries. These technologies often require extraordinary competence and expertise.

And I've seen this comparison, a little different though largely similar. Python ranks first with 30.09%, followed by Java with 18.84%, then JavaScript with 8.1%, C# with 7.27%, PHP with 6.08% and C/C++ with 5.86%,

Thanks for a lot of valuable and useful information, I don't know if you have noticed one issue, and that is Pelles C has in the File - Load Type Library menu. Especially the index of a character, word, line, sentence or paragraph has been very useful for me in this case.
