My first Gambas program-Hello World

There are many programming IDE for Linux. And Gambas is one of my favorite programming IDE on Linux which uses a kind of Basic language. On this first Gambas program, I will show you how to get started with Gambas. We want to learn to create our first program called Hello World.

Here is the program looks like

First, create a new project on Gambas. Give it any name you like. Next create a button on the form.

So the idea is when user press Hello World button, it will display an information message “Hello World” Or you can change it to any text.

Double click the Hello World button and input the code

[codesyntax lang=”vbnet”]

'When the button is pressed
Public Sub Button1_Click()

  Message.Info("Hello World")

End
