SkyIDE - Latest Release Information

<< < (22/39) > >>

SkyIDE:
A brand new SkyIDE web page is up and running. VERY soon there will be full SkyIDE documentation. I am working on this web page every day now.

SkyIDE:
I am happy to introduce you to the brand new (smartly designed) Compiler Profiles config file format.

I am working on having an option of #including separate directories per profile. These directories will be passed to the compiler when compiling single source files (non-projects). You already have something like this but currently you only have it with projects. Now you will have it with single source files.

In order to do this, I had to modify the configuration format for the compiler profiles because the old one sucked badly.


--- ---Old Format:
BORLAND C++|BproName|C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder6\Bin\bcc32.exe|
DIGITAL MARS C++|DMC|C:\dm\bin\sc.exe|

New Format:

--- ---[ID=0]
Profile Name=Borland Profile
Compiler Type=BORLAND C++
Compiler Location=C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder6\Bin\bcc32.exe
Compiler Parameters=-something

[ID=1]
Profile Name=GNU Profile
Compiler Type=GNU C++
Compiler Location=C:\GNUCPP\bin\c++.exe
Compiler Parameters=-something

[Settings]
Section Count=2

Now I can easily add "Compiler #include dirs" and "Compiler Libraries" to each section and it will be very easy to retrieve the settings. Because the core SkyIDE API names and their return values did not change, everything works normal through the entire IDE. The only thing that changed is the code within the APIs. The return values and parameters stayed the same.

My next task is to redesign the Profiles dialog so I give you space to add the dirs graphically.


Here is what else has been done:

New: Support for LCC-WIN32 C Compiler
New: Added a Multi-File Search & Replace
New: Added "Compile Only" with no linking for single source file

New: Added "Open/Explore SkyIDE Output Dir" from the "Compile" menu
New: Added "Open/Explore Compiler's Directory" relevant to the profile selected
New: Added "Open/Explore Source File's Directory"
New: Added "Open Command Line at Compiler's Dir" relevant to the profile selected
New: Added ""Open Command Line at Source File's Dir" relevant to the profile selected


BUGFIX: Bugfixes with Bakefile
BUGFIX: Fixed the Profiles/Compilers dialog. When you edit an entry now the profile name gets updated and the new name is shown.
BUGFIX: Some invisible internal bugfixes


Improved: Renamed previous "Compile" and "Compile & Run" to "Build" "Build & Run"
Improved: Renamed the Line Search to "Preview Search"
Improved: Some spelling mistakes fixed
Improved: Slight changes in the project file format
Improved: Some changes with the templates

I am quite excited with Beta 11 :) To be released in a few days.

I just made my 100th post :)

Some really nice work there  :Thmbsup:

SkyIDE:
Thanks jah :)

Well after a longer break (and a few problems) I am happy to announce the release of SkyIDE Beta 11. Beta 11 has gone through some heavy code changes so please use it with caution.

If you find something not quite right, PLEASE email be, it will be fixed and I will immediately upload Update 2.

Don't forget with SkyIDE you can click on your scroll wheel to get access to a full list of all open files in the session and you can show that file by double clicking on the entry.


Work on SkyIDE documentation has been started and should be available soon.
For now if you have a question just email me please. I will answer your question.
