What is PureGDK?

PureGDK is an intermediary compiler and a set of command libraries that interfaces the DarkBASIC Professional and PureBasic language at compile-time. This allows DarkBASIC Professional commands to be compiled to an executable and debugged right out of the PureBasic IDE. It also bring a powerful new command set to both PureBasic and DarkBASIC users alike. Both DarkBASIC Professional and PureBasic are required to compile.

Is PureGDK slower than a native DarkBASIC Professional executable?

A PureGDK executable will run as fast or faster than a native DarkBASIC Professional executable. This is because the machine code produced by PureBasic is designed for maximum speed and compactness. The execution speed of code produced by PureBasic can match almost any professional compiler like Visual C++.

Is PureGDK expandable?

PureGDK comes with support for 20 third-party plugins which adds over 1,000 new commands to the already impressive DarkBASIC Professional command set. PureGDK also provides a plugin framework which allows anyone to effortlessly add support for their favorite plugin.
