Does Code::Blocks support multiple monitor editing?

ollydbg:
I did some hack on this issue.

The idea is to create a new cbAuiNotebook control, which can be "float" or docked. The original notebook is centered. I have to "Menu-View->Perspective->Delete current" to see the new added notebook window.

Here is the result screen shot and the patch file.

The issue here are:

I see that cbAuiNotebook can't be focused?

I mean when loading a file to a new editor, I would like to put the new editor to the "active cbAuiNotebook", but it just failed. So, I just toggle a "bool" variable, so half of the files were added to the original cbAuiNotebook, and the other files were added to another notebook.

Another issue is that I have enabled the option "wxAUI_NB_TAB_EXTERNAL_MOVE". When I am using the wxAui sample code, I see that editors can be dragged from one Notebook to another. But in my changes, I see can't see I can drag editors from one to another.

There are still many other things to handle, but I see this could be a simple hack and start.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

This is some improved patch v2, the new cbAuiNotebook has a default "start page". I can drag the editors between the two notebook now.

But there are other issues, such as when a project get closed, C::B will hang. Because there are two many code which is handling the first(default) cbAuiNotebook.

This is the v3 patch.

It can load a project and close a project without crash, and I can drag the source file from one notebook to another.

Our "Start here" page is a very special editor we must handle it carefully. I try to fix some crashed here and there.

The remaining issue is that some plugins such as the CodeCompletion's toolbar does not work well(disabled) when I drag a file from the first notebook to the second notebook.

Another issue is that I can't drag a file to an empty notebook, see my bug report here: I can not drag a panel to an empty wxAuiNotebook from another wxAuiNotebook


EDIT


--- Code: ---EditorBase* EditorManager::GetActiveEditor()
{
    // find which is the active cbAuiNotebook

    cbAuiNotebook* activeNotebook = m_pNotebook;
//    if (m_pNotebook2->IsActive())
//    {
//        activeNotebook = m_pNotebook2;
//    }
//    else
//    {
//        activeNotebook = m_pNotebook;
//    }

    // @fixme how can we determine which notebook is active?


    if (activeNotebook->GetPageCount() > 0)
    {
        return InternalGetEditorBase(activeNotebook, activeNotebook->GetSelection());
    }
    return nullptr;
}

--- End code ---

The issue is that I don't know which is the "active" notebook. Any idea on how to solve this issue?

ollydbg:
v4 version, I can get the "active editor" correctly.

Are you intrigued as to how to implement synchronization between two cbAuiNotebook's so that files of the same project, opened or moved between two cbAuiNotebook`s, are parsed and compiled?
