Where can I download the MapBasic compiler?

[fjavier.gar...@gmail.com]

Hello. 

The Precisely website says the following:  All of our Location intelligence software products, including MapBasic, are now available for download via Precisely Data Experience (PDX) , but when I log in, the My Software Products section is empty.

I just installed the trial version of MapInfo 2023.

Thanks

Hi,

If I log in to that website, I can see "MapInfo Pro-Perpetual" and if I click on that one, I get mapbasic 2023 as one of 7 available downloads. All MapInfo 2023 related.

But access to all older MapInfo / Mapbasic seems gone.


Kind regards
Uffe Kousgaard

Hey Uffe

Can you choose a different version from the Release dropdown at the top?

Hi Peter,

Yes, now I see the other versions.

There is also 15.0.3 (final 32-bit).
But the two actual downloads both seem to be a bugfix / maintenance module.
The core 15.0.0 installer is missing. It is way bigger than the files offered.

Regards
Uffe

I believe those compilers are specific for MI versions.  I'm running MI 8 that does along with Global Mapper everything that I need done.  I've got the source code for Map Basic ditty's that I use.  But, with no MI-8 specific compiler, I can't make more Map Basic dittys.  Bill Thoen wrote those for me almost 25 years ago and I'm still using them.  Global Mapper is a lot less $$$ than the latest and greatest MI and it does a lot more especially for images.  When you buy a Global Mapper version, you can continue to use it without renewing the license.  However, MI 8 has stood the test of time for many things it does.  I'm stuck with MI 8 for as long as I can use Windows 11.  I'm 77 and that won't likely happen until I die and at that point I won't care.  I don't know if you can still purchase MI-15.  But, if you can, I'm sure they will require regular yearly relicensing.  So again, I'm stuck.
