Version 1.0rc2 released!
« on: October 25, 2005, 11:48:24 am »
After almost 3 months since the last release, we 're happy to announce the availability of version 1.0-ReleaseCandidate2!
Many enhancements and bug-fixes are contained in this release.

Here are the major changes since 1.0-ReleaseCandidate1:
  • Precompiled headers (PCH) support! (currently works only with GCC)
  • The source is now fully UNICODE-compatible!
  • The source is also fully 64-bit compatible!
  • Autoconf/automake build system is now used for non-windows platforms.
  • New plugins:

   - Code statistics: counts nr. of source lines, nr. of comment lines, etc.
   - CBProfiler: parses and displays the output of GProf, the GNU Profiler.
   - SourceExporter: exports the active file to HTML/RTF/ODT.
  • New lexer (syntax highlighting) files:

   - Fortran77 (by Morten MacFly)
   - NVidia CG (by anonymous)
   - X-Base languages (Clipper,  Foxpro)
  • New and improved project templates:

   - SDCC program
   - Irrlicht 3D Graphics Engine
   - Ogre 3D Graphics Engine
   - GLFW project (OpenGL FrameWork)
   - wxWidgets: selection between static/dynamic unicode/ansi wxWidgets version.
  • New editor functionality (by right-clicking the editor):

   - "Find declaration of [keyword]"
   - "Open #include file: [file]"
  • New plugin type: cbProjectWizardPlugin to allow creation of custom new-project wizards.
  • New compiler supported: SDCC (Small Device C Compiler - http://sdcc.sourceforge.net/) for micro-processors. Contributed by Stanimir Jordanov.
  • Better handling of modified files outside the IDE: r/w->r/o, r/o->r/w, deletion
  • Single file (without project) compilation is now supported, for quick tests.
  • Code::Blocks now allows multiple files selection when adding link libraries.
  • BCC compiler is now working correctly for DLLs and static libraries.
  • Find-in-Files supports searching in arbitrary paths/filemasks (outside of project).
  • All Code::Blocks internal file formats (project, workspace, etc) are now valid XML.
  • Many new editor settings.
  • Many other bug-fixes.

We hope you enjoy this release!

On behalf of the Code::Blocks Team,
Yiannis.

COOL! THANKS! :D
Great job guys. This is the best IDE ever.


Minor issue though:
The CVS/SVN plugin crashes CB when it's installed. Says it can't find "svn.exe".

Can my colour settings cross over? I don't want to take another 2 hours tryng to set them again.  :lol:

And something I hate when I see OSS projects put out release notes is:

# Many new editor settings.
# Many other bug-fixes.

You should be more specific here. We can't read your minds. Is the whitespace removal implemented?

Yes, it is implemented.
Hate it or not, this is a "major highlights" list. If we would list each and every change in this, then this wouldn't be an announcement but the change log itself.
If you want to check *exactly* what 's changed you can view the ChangeLog (it doesn't get any more detailed ;)).

thanks a lot for your works, thanks!

what I concerned is to use my Makefile to build the project.
another question is it can not map its shortcut key when I am using vnc, it bothers me.

thanks anyway

  • Precompiled headers (PCH) support! (currently works only with GCC)
Evidentally you are talking about some 'auto-recognition' of the headers to precompile (?), as I have PCH's working correctly using VC Toolkit compiler in RC1.  You just have to do something like the following at the top of each .cpp file in your project:

#include "TheUnitsToPrecompile.h"
#pragma hdrstop

Then add all of the ones you want to be included in the precompiled header phase in "TheUnitsToPrecompile.h" file...  Works like a charm.

(This same technique works with all the other environments I have tried it on.)

Great job, guys!  Thanks!

important bug found: can not compile after adding .h file to project!!!
« Reply #22 on: October 26, 2005, 09:44:23 am »
do the following:
1. generate a wxWidgets project using wizard.
2. add a class using class plugin.

now you can not compile the project in either "invoke compiler directly" option or "work with makefile (GNU "make" is requred)" option

it's urgent!

Guys, so many thanks for the good job!
OMG, just the SmartIdent fix is a great relief..  :)

Well, I agree with the guy who said that you should give an option to save the workspace. It's a very seful feature and I'm using lots of workspaces in the last days and I would just loooooooove it...

oh, sorry, got carried away... I know that this is no place for feature request  ;)

Cheers, guys, and keep up the good work!

This options exists! Menu: File -> Save Workspace or File -> Save Workspace as...

...or am I missing something?!

Just close all projects and open the ones you want. Then save workspace as.

I fully agree. I don't understand the discussion about the feature "Create new Workspace". Where is the difference???
-> Eighter you choose "Create new Workspace" and add a new project or you choose "Close all projects" and add a new project after that. Only the first option would be another (redundant) menu entry...  :?

Well, It's just a matter of being intuitive. It doesn't make it very clear that you can use lots of workspaces. It took me a while to figure out a way to create new workspaces because it's just ankward this way. And suppose I have a workspace with some dozens of projects. I have then to do dozens of right clicks and popup menu interactions just to close all of my projects and then save the workspace.
Well, the option is not just a redundant menu entry, is the consolidation of an abstraction concept. It would be nice to have a nice dialog to choose your workspace name and then where to save it, and even some global options to apply to all the underlying projects would be nice (but it would be more difficult to implement than a simple input-name-and-path-dialog) but then why should I choose the name of my workspace if I can change it from the right click menu.
Well, then i start to wonder why use an IDE anyways since we can do everything from asm... seens a bit redundant too...  :?

Seeing this I guess I understand, why it might be difficult and hard to find. See: In the project menu (note the singular) most of the options apply to that very single project (which is currently active). Maybe "Close all projects" should just be moved into the file menu?

Well, "Close all projects" is just below "Close [one] project", seems like the logical place to me.

What particularly struck me was the wording "if it really existed". This implies that Rick is telling fairy tales?

Oh it's in the Project menu... -.-

But I still think that a workspace is a very helpful abstraction concept to aid in the organization of a project when it consists of several subprojects and it wouldn't be any hard to provide the simple option to create a new workspace in a painless way. If the concept itself could be evolved later to store even more information about the projects grouped under the workspace it would be great, but this single option would really fit nice in the UI.

Or give the option to add menu entry with Macro combination and I woudl add one 'Create new workspace' that would call 'Save Workspace', 'Close all projects', 'Rename Workspace' and then 'Save workspace as'. But it's so much easier to call the respective function from inside the code  :roll:

Well, you just can't please everyone, I know but if it doesn't hurt anybody why not put the option? :D

What particularly struck me was the wording "if it really existed". This implies that Rick is telling fairy tales?

No, no... not at all. At the very moment of my post the menu entry doesn't seemed to exist for me, and rick didn't wrote about the option in his post. He just said to close all projects.

Seeing this I guess I understand, why it might be difficult and hard to find. See: In the project menu (note the singular) most of the options apply to that very single project (which is currently active). Maybe "Close all projects" should just be moved into the file menu?

And I think Morten is right. 'Close All Projects' should be under File menu not under Project menu...

Ok, I know I'm making a big deal of this, but I've never imagined that this would generate such comotion :shock:
I thought it would be simply nice to have a 'Create New Workspace' option

No contradiction - it makes perfect sense (for me that is). Hence, the same entries are in the "File" menu and there "Close all projects" is missing. In my humble opinion it fits there as well - and maybe even better since it is would be next to "File" (in general) and "Workspace" related stuff.

I posted the RC2 announcement on "The C++ Source"  http://www.artima.com/forums/flat.jsp?forum=269&thread=134502.  Maybe it might bring a little more attention to the project.
