- Added hack to fix toolbar sizes for toolbars that contain windows controls. This hack is automatically applied on all Windows versions prior to XP. An environment option has been added to enable this hack for XP too. This is needed only if you run C::B *without* a manifest file in XP
don't panic, don't panic. We are working on CC and did most of our work on windows (the biggest group of users). On windows we got huge improvements for code completion, but as we hear, and we are certainly aware of it, it is not so nice on linux. So linux users, just disable the code completion for now, those things will get fixed in the near future. Just give us some time ;-)
An Open Source Project that ignores Linux in favor of Windows... I lived to see this one :shock:
As if Windows coders don't prefer Visual Studio... or the free version VS Express...
I get more disappointed in C::B everyday. Maybe if I fall asleep for a year, and I come back, C::B will be usable on Linux? :?
Have you turned off CodeCompletetion? With all the updates to it in the recent past its has not been fully debugged on Linux. I can save files just fine with CB on Ubuntu wxGTK 2.6.1.
Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x2358f)!

Just disabled CodeCompletion in Settings -> Editor. The problem persists. :( Always crashes when saving a file.

Second, it's a time of joy: I fixed this bug earlier today so if you update your svn working copy this bug will be gone.

Letting the linux version in an unstable state for almost a week? A whole week? The development version?Sorry, Mandrav, your sarcastic post made it difficult for me to understand when did I ever refer to the development version?
Oh, by the way, I never received your patches. What address did you mail them to?The same address where I bill my hours for patching software that I want to use for my projects.
You know, i don't know how people have the audacity to say such things. I wouldn't dare.No, really, I can't understand neither. How could I point out that I really really wanted to find a stable version of C::B for Linux that had a decent Code Completion? (is that really too much to ask?). I shouldn't have dared. I should have said how great the software is, and how rapidly it is growing, like you all do? Well, sorry. It's not all flowers and cakes. I was desperately trying to make it work. I compiled several nightly builds. I even wrote a long post (August 26 nightly build) about what I found wrong with C::B (at the first glance) and even provided screenshots of C::B crashing. No reply, no bug-fix. Seemed like I was ignored, and the bug along with me. Not that I am complaining, I should have probably submitted it at BerliOS, but when I saw there are so many bugs opened, I started to doubt if any of them are actually read.
Give the developers a break, they will get it done in their own time.I never intended to give them a hard time. As I said, I tried to be helpful. In my previous post, I pointed out that, I, for instance, didn't like the feeling that I will always have to use a slightly buggier version of C::B, just because I use Linux. And Visual Studio served as an example of usable software on Windows, as opposed to Linux, where I couldn't find a good IDE. And when I thought that "Finally, the next best thing, Code Blocks!" and then I read Mandarv's post, I understood that it will never be as good as the Windows version of C::B.. and I got a bit pissed off...maybe even carried away :/ for which I apologize.
You good sir are an idiot.Once in a while, we are all idiots. Some more often than others.
When you can write an cross-platform IDE with as much functionality as this one, then you can have an opinion, until then just be grateful you are getting something for free.The funny things is that I could probably write something that will satisfy my needs, and that is: a text editor, code assist and a little Build button. I just don't want to waste my time on writing something that already exists, just as much as I don't want to spend my time fixing other people's code, when all I want is a simple code editor on Linux. I have my own projects to develop, and so far, it looks like I should stick to my good old editor without code completion.
Well, sigh. We don't favor any OS above another. But there are much more windows users then linux ones, so the number of feedback will be bigger in that corner.I should have thought of that in the first place. My apologies to you personally.
By the way, what's so dreadfully wrong with vi.Nothing ;) That's the point. I think that for now, I'll stick to VI. I just wanted an editor with Code-Completion.. and apparently I am asking the wrong way...
maybe it's a good idea you fell asleep for a yearI think VI will do for a year, unless I decide to throw some bug reports at you guys :)
at least you won't be offending people putting their heart into this project.You must agree that sometimes, this is necessary, as a little break from all the applauses on the forum :)
I do hope you realize that with such an attitude you are just breaking down open source projects instead of supporting them.I doubt that 1 person will bring down this project. Besides, I don't intend to do that, my only concern is that the developers of this project stick to the needs of everybody.
Nevertheless, I'd like to offer you an alternative : install wine, go buy Visual Studio and run it in Wine.While that might be an idea, I never liked VS that much and I surely don't like the UI in wine :P
And use the forums to contribute something, not to bother the developers with this kind of shit.My previous post contributed more than you will ever understand. Think long-term, not short-term.
Personally, I love Linux, but I prefer to report the bugs I find, and try to help with them, than offending the developers.Will try to follow your example sir.
Mandrav, however, seemed to be hurt the most. And I feel I should give him a reply:

In conclusion, I would like to say that I am glad I made my point. Maybe in a primitive way, maybe with an attitude, but I am glad you all saw it.
And if out of anger you decide to classify me as one of those ranting idiots, it is your right to do it.
My grandmother used to say: "if you're doing something, do it right" .... Whether it has a price tag on it, or not.
Until then, I will try to be helpful, for a change.Please be helpful. Go back to the attitude of your firsts posts, which are welcomed.
