Major CVS codebase changes
MortenMacFly:
I compiled and used the latest CVS version. I think it's awesome. I really like what you have realised. This rocks! The handling of the debugger has greatly improved and I also really like the re-design of the "New project..." wizard.
There are a few notes I would like to mention:
1.) Debugger (1): I recently posted a patch here http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,1317.0.html that enables to use (saved) scripts on the basis of "Send command to debugger". I still think it's would be a nice feature and I would be willing to update the patch if required. I think it is especially interesting for people who want to store a series of watches, e.g. values of a std::vector. But: It seems the "Send command to debugger" is broken. Everything I send to the debugger is not even printed in the debugger log. Am I missing something?
2.) Debugger (2): The debugger setting dialog seems not to recall/show the settings in the GUI. Alltough the settings are applied and used, the GUI isn't updated if opened again. This might be a bug.
3.) Debugger (3): When I gave it a try I stupidely (again) missed to setup the "-g" switch. This raised a question: Would it be worth to spot a warning if a user tries to debug a programn that hasn't enabled the debug-compiler switch? Because otherwise the debugger just exists with "0" even if breakpoints are set. Which can be frustrating for new users. Maybe this could be thought of.
4.) I realised that a new compiler has been added. Unfortunately my own compiler addition (an adapted copy of GCC for Fortran77) because of that had a new index so I had to change all my project files to reflect the changes. I guess this is another point to be thought of (with the compiler framework re-design). -> Should a seperate thread be opened for suggestions on this topic???
5.) I realised that a new template has been added. Please allow me to point to http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,1207.0.html and http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,1228.0.html which might be also considered (if found to be OK). They are also available as patches on SourceForge.
That's all for now.
Thanks again for this great update anyway!!!
Morten.
Edit: With the latest version from CVS the debugger's output is shown again, load/save watches exists in CVS or at least as a patch.

Morten: Forget about CVS.... try the SVN build instead. (We've moved to berlios for the code repository).
Just beware of the latest bugs :P

...this post was originally from a date much before the SVN change... :wink:
...but you were right at least I had to cross out another issue that has already been fixed. I had already forgotten this message. :?
