[DevQt] New versions, feature requests and bug reports

[Dwarf007]

Hi fullmetalcoder,

I quickly went through this thread and tested DevQt myself.
Your project looks very promissing !!

My first suggestion would be to separate the *.ccp, *.h and *.ui files
on the workspace filebrowser

I also noticed a problem when double clicking on a file of this workspace it is opened in the main window. If you then close this window (of the just opened file) and double click again on the same file in the workspace: DevQt will crash instead of opening the file again. (tested several times and easy to reproduce).

Something else:
What about merging seneca's QSA script programming IDE with DevQt IDE ?

The crash that comes from file openning has been fixed in version 0.0.3.0 (can be found on svn) simply by using QPointer.

Separating files by type will not be done automatically. But thanks to the complexity of .pro format, it is now possible to create folders, and even nested one!!!

CONFIG += sources headers forms
 
sources {
 SOURCES += ...
}
 
headers {
 HEADERS += ...
}
 
forms {
 FORMS += ...
}

CONFIG += sources headers forms
 
sources {
 SOURCES += ...
}
 
headers {
 HEADERS += ...
}
 
forms {
 FORMS += ...
}

A project such as the one above will be show files sorted in 3 folders and qmake will generate a makefile flawlessly. Enjoy!!!

It would also be nice to:
- be able to save the icons menu layout on top of DevQt. (currently a user has to reorder them each time he starts DevQt.)
- see a horizontal scrollbar in the workspace browser in case the names are to long
- place bookmarks to jump between specific lines of different files
- be able to do a column mode text selection (by pressing on shift for instance) when selecting text
- switch from one file to the other inside the main window by using shift + left arrow or right arrow for instance

sorry I feel like complaining when writing down some ideas but this are not complaints!
This are just some suggestions

the project browser scrollbar bug is a Qt issue! I think it's solved in Qt 4.1.1, but my not sure...

saving icons is not a bad idea, thinking about it...
bookmarks is an interesting feature but it's implementation is not planned soon.

shift + ( left | right ) would most of the time be caught by the text edit widget....

The ideas are just ideas and nothing is urgent as long as it is on a kind of whishlist :-)
shift+ (left|right) etc. can be replaced with ctrl+ or whatever.. but does features are very handy for keyboard users who don't like to loose time grabing the mouse.

Don't forget the column mode selection which is a really nice feature (also shift|ctrl|alt.. whatever...)

Thanks for considering our ideas,
Daniel

L.Marvell,

Using opera by any chance?

I used a small library I wrote a year or two ago for generating quick and dirty sites. I still did not manage to get it to work under Opera.

The site now has problems with Konqueror 3.2.X, and I will see how I address them.

Firefox works

The compilation problems have been fixed at revision 33-34, so upgrade your svn.

if type "/" in the end of preprocessor line
devQt(v.0.0.3) crush

P.S how about different color for ->#include<- and ->"filename.h"<-

I'll try to fix that bug ASAP but about your PS I don't want to change how the things are done! I mean, compilers handles lines begining by # as preprocessor command, discarding about what they contains and a SH is designed to show how the code is gonna be handled. Thus, highlighting strings inside preprocessor would be something wrong (and it would also require more code )

Yeah, it seems works fine in Firefox, thanks!
By the way, I'm registered on sf.net, don't you want to upload DevQt there?

[fullmetalcoder]

uploading at Sf.net ? your question sounds crazy!

we've got a project openned at Berlios and to upload something at Sf.net we would need creating another there : the result would be an umaintainable project with two kind of contributors (berlios based and sf based) + tow versioning sytems (svn at berlios and cvs at sf.net)

Ok, don't mind it was just question.

Hi. Recentrly I've got new version from SVN (revision 32) but it don't want to compile. I've read thread but seem not find solution. The errors look like:

I can't help you for the web stuff! ask elcuco he is the one that take care of it!

About compilation of revision 32 it seems you're using the old *.pro file. I thought I removed it... Try the one in the src dir!

[evgenM]

hey boys
have u new version?
wait impatiently for it (case have no IDE at all and must write in console

i have write my proper editor - very simple but it work yet

[fullmetalcoder]

Thanks for giving snippet. I'll have a look ASAP.

We don't have a real new version yet. The svn trunk has been updated and it works but it will not be maintained anymore (except maybe for some bugs). We are ATM redesigning the app (new relationship scheme, better separation between modules, plugin implementation and so on...) and all of us are quite busy so the next usable release is not planned yet but should come (unless we encounter big problems) before the end of May.

[fullmetalcoder]

Gotcha !

After a some weeks of thinking and (hard) coding I came to something nice! The new branch of DevQt is now at a beta stage. The internal architecture is now much clearer and flexible; the GUI uses a perspective system and a powerfull MDI library to let the plugins customize the app. Actually (nearly) everything is now done in plugins (a default one being provided to take care of C++/Qt4) :
- GUI (dock widgets, menubar, toolbars)
- project management
- file loading
- text editing customization (indentation, highlighting, parenthesis matching...)

The archive has been tested under :
- Window$ ME, mingw 3.4.2, Qt 4.1.2
- Suse 10.0, gcc 4.0.2, Qt 4.1.3 snapshot

If no bug is reported within a week, this archive will become the svn trunk and the developpment will restart at a faster pace.

P.S : we would greatly appreciate Mac feedback because DevQt is meant to be fully cross platfrom

[Morea]

I just hope it's not to late to ask it to be simple, so that you can work with just one simple file and not multiple file projects, and that you can use it and do stuff without using qt stuff (i.e. qmake etc.) or having qt installed, and that it will be a great application!

U can use/test Qt4DS instead

I go check your last source of DevQt.
