EXTERNAL INTEGRATION: DECLARE EXTERNAL PROCEDURES (WITH PARAMETERS)

This small example explains how to declare external procedures to be called as normal procedure inside ugBASIC. Moreover, it explain the syntax on parameter definition and target limitation. Note that this code will not work since there is no assembly code at that position.

How to compile and run the example

The instructions here refer to compiling the example from the command line. For Microsoft Windows users we suggest using UGBASIC-IDE, which allows you to download and compile each single example with just one click.

Are instructions for your specific home computer / console missing? First of all, check if your computer is supported by clicking here. If so, since ugBASIC is a language which does not provide abstractions, it is possible that this example will not work on your target. If you think this is an issue, please click here.
