Hi! I hope you won't kill me if I post some bugs here instead of over at BerliOS. I really don't want to register just for that, and these bugs are so small. =/ (But I will if you insist though.)

Alright, here goes:

1. Abbreviations: The "--->" thingy inserts an actual tab character even though I've told CB to insert tabs as spaces.

2. The caret doesn't stop blinking when I press the tab key, so after repeated tabs the caret disappears and I must wait a short while to see where I am. (In contrast to when I press backspace several times and always see the caret.)

[edit]
I'm using WinXP SP2 and the latest CB nightly.

Thanks for the best IDE ever!

The problem there is that it uses a cbStyledTextCtrl (the preview window over there) which haves the settings hardcoded, they aren't readed from the settings that cbEditor (the main editor) uses.

The following editor-preview windows haves that inconsistency:
-Source formatter (AStyle)
-Default code
-Abbreviations
-Syntax highlighting

Another little inconsistency is that 'Syntax highlighting' let's you select a language other than C/C++, while:
-Source formatter (AStyle) does not: it's ok as AStyle doesn't support another language, but there should be a warning. In the future even supporting other source formatters for other languages will be better.
-Default code does not: this shouldn't be difficult to solve.
-Abbreviations does not: neither this.

Have you tried disabling "Hide cursor as you type" in Windows' cursor settings?

tretton · « **Reply #3 on:** May 05, 2006, 01:30:53 am »

1. Oh, okay. Just wanted to point it out. =)

2. Maybe you thought I meant the mouse cursor? =) I mean the focus marker which blinks where you type (while you're not typing). This is the only program I know of that "misbehaves" on this issue. I mean, it does work for backspace.

I also tried what you said, but it didn't help. Not very surprising though, since the mouse cursor shouldn't have anything to do with it. I hope.

I can reproduce it, but it's a Scintilla issue (I can reproduce it in SciTE), so make sure you submit a bug report to them here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=2439

Nonetheless, you can configure the color & width of the caret in Settings->Editor->Gutter, margins and caret.

Scintilla should have a method to disable blinking too.

This doesn't seem big enough for a bug report (yet). It's probably a small thing. I noticed in the nightly I got that the tools command

explorer.exe ${PROJECT_DIR} doesn't work anymore. It lauches the tool but the window never opens up. and it kind of stalls under I open the folder manually. Also Mandrav added another command, but it's not listed in the window.

Thank you for that. I've been squinting at that skinny caret for 6 months.

lo, as you can see from my poster count, i'm new here. first of all, congratulations for your program, even if i started c++ studying only few months ago, i want to say that this is the one of the best compiler i've ever used, thanks for your work.

now, i got an issue installing this build (it's the first time i install one, so maybe i've made some stupid mistake). i've downloaded zip files and overwrote the old ones in the CodeBlocks directory. when i try to run the program, i got an error that says: "impossible to find ingress point GetStringFromArray of procedure in dynamic linking library codeblocks.dll". is it a known issue? what can i do to fix it?

thanks for the help. see you around

did you overwrite RC2 ??

It is best to do a clean and seperate install. You can reuse the Mingw from RC2, or you can install Mingw manually.

See the wiki on the main page : cookbook for the nightlies, it explains on how to do that (ignore the other stuff).

It does. I probably could submit a patch for this pretty soon.

Just to know : this work is really in progress or it is in stand by ?

True to my word here is the patch for setting the caret blink "period".

i've uninstalled and reinstalled codeblocks. now it seems to be ok, thanks

Hi,

I have tried installing the linux nightly build rpm and I get two unsatisfied dependencies: libcodeblocks.so.0 and libwxscintilla.so.0. Does anyone know where I can get these?

Thanks,
Les

Conan Kudo · « **Reply #16 on:** May 07, 2006, 04:20:05 pm »

Those are a part of Code::Blocks itself... That means that some stuff is missing from the RPM...

These two files are in the rpm package. They are provided by the package itself.
I don't know why you get such an error :?

Which distribution do you use ?

lesnewell · « **Reply #18 on:** May 07, 2006, 07:33:48 pm »

I am using Suse Linux 10.0

I have just built SVN HEAD instead so it isn't too much of a problem for me for the time being.

Thanks,
Les

TheTuxKeeper · « **Reply #19 on:** May 07, 2006, 08:10:22 pm »

The provided package is a Fedora package, which doesn't work on Suse. Suse and Fedora use different wxGTK packages which are not compatible (fedora has compatibility to wxGTK2.4 enabled suse not).

So building it yourself is the only way at the moment for suse users. Lieven (killerbot) wants to provide suse builds in future. But you need time to get into the whole packaging stuff.

lesnewell · « **Reply #20 on:** May 08, 2006, 12:27:27 am »

That is one of the big problems with linux - packaging is a complete nightmare. This new build locks up when you pass a .cbp file on the command line. Is that a known bug?
