I´ve come across with the following bug:

I´ve updated to RC3 and it gives a 'Runtime error 13' 'Type mismatch' error.Tried to load it in debug mode :

BlueIDE - version 1.0.0[http://blueide.sf.net]

Setup statusbar & navigation bar

Created TDBPROEDITOR window

Loaded Global Settings

Applied View Settings

DarkBasic Professional Install Path = CrogrammeDark Basic SoftwareDark Basic Professional

Found Keywords folder - ReadFromBIDEFileOnly = TRUE

Run-time error '13':
Type mismatch

-----------------
then the editor opens,but everything is messed up.I can't do anything except closing the editor :-(
In the processes though,blue.exe is still running.
switched back to beta2.any clues ??

I'm pretty sure this may have been mentioned before, but anyway:

"To" in a For Next statement highlights differently to the For Next, I'm not sure if this is intentional.

"Mod" doesn't highlight at all, it could be considered an operator like + or - although it's also similar to commands like "Sqrt" so I'm not sure what it should be either. Never-the-less, it should at least highlight as something.

That's an ommission from the keywords files, I think it would be better seen as an operator. Added to my to-do list.

To highlights differently because its not a scope keyword. I *think* I can change that though.

@freakdave

Do you think you could email me the contents of your C: \Programme\Dark Basic Software\Dark Basic Professional\Keywords folder please. I suspect there is a file there which the IDE doesn't like for some reason.

Looked at various vbAccelerator components for OfficeXP style menus. It will certainly make the editor look nicer. I couldn't find OfficeXP style components for all the various UI elements, but menus are a start.

Rob,

May I say that since the release of v3, I've now finally found the perfect editor that I'm comfortable in using Well done!

On a small note, just a cosmetic change but on the settings dialog for display settings, the Exclusive Full screen label needs to be modified as it looks off bounds.

Also, and yes, I know I can modify this in VB but would it be possible to configure the colours of the Project Manager background. It's very dark in grey. This is not an essential modification but maybe something you could add during a spare 5 mins session

Anyway, many thanks for a top product.

Paul.

Thanks Paul,

Adjusted the label in settings. For the Project Organisation colour, its not quite as simple as just setting colour as the tab itself doesn't have a panel colour property, however it can certainly be done ...

Rob,

Another problem has appeared but for the likes, I cannot find any explanation for it. It has happened with other editors as well but I could never find a solution to it.

Basically, I'll be editing and then compile the project. The progress window will come up with compiling line 1/xxxx and then vanish as if the compile was successful. It does generate an executable but it's only the windows Stub section, so running it just fires up the graphics mode then quits immediately. In other words, the application did not fully get generated by the DB compiler.

There are no errors or syntax problems because it successfully compiled on previous sessions but now it won't compile at all.

The odd thing is, this never happened with the original DB editor, but it does occur with other editors, including yours.

Have you seen this problem with your projects? A quick solution will be great because I do not wish to use the original DB editor anymore, driving up the wall with the Exception errors etc.

Many thanks Rob.

Paul.

[EDIT] P.S. Did you by any chance see my post for you at the top of (This is beyond a joke - 2nd page at the top)

Hi Apex,

No, I haven't encountered this particular bug. Does it occur often or only infrequently?

Does changing the exe type setting on the Project tab fix this?

Rob, it happens infrequently, but once it does occur, I can't compile that one project again. But I'll give your suggestion a go and see what happens.

Thanks for the feedback.

[EDIT]

Rob, this is an absolute classic. This has to be documented or made very clear. Do not put tab characters in source files. i.e. Setting the tabulation to 3 or 4, make sure that for DarkBASIC users, the Replace with spaces checkbox is enabled!!

After all this time trying to find out why all of a sudden, my projects would not compile anymore, it was because on some of my comments in the source code, there were tabulated sections without actually using space ASCII 32 as the characters. I think ASCII 7 or 8 is the one. Anyway, the DB compiler should account for this, but it doesn't!

Paul.

[ORIGINAL]
Rob,

No difference I'm afraid

If it helps, I can zip the whole project up, source and the actual project file so you can see for yourself if it's something stupid or something that I'm completely missing. It's a small zip, no need to run the application, just need to see if it actually compiles without error.

If you provide me an email, I'll wizz it over to you.

Paul.

The latest version doesn't save the "save on compile" menu option.
When trying to set the option after starting bide I get a
You have not saved the current project. Click File -> Save and choose a filename for the project
msgbox, is that causing the option to be unset?

@Rob,

Couple more things that you may need to check as well.

The find and find next keys both use the F3 key, so hitting F3 after a search brings up the dialog again. I've reconfigured the Find Next option to use F2, but, when you close the editor down, the key configuration is not stored for the next session.

Otherwise, sorted

Paul.

Something I would like:
The help window is very badly laid out IMHO.
It should be more like the default IDE's with
-back
-forward
-home
icons and a search box on the same line.
Have the results displayed underneath the box like it is now.

Hey RobK,
Any idea on how to get this to run in VB.Net? I had a few ideas, but I run the project upgrade wizard and it says "Upgrade Failed: Exception Occured: THe referenced components STab are missing design time licenses."

Now I have no clue wtf this means..lol. Anyone got it working in .net?

why some windows systems files are automatically changed when you installed blueIDE ????
When I install last version, it update some windows files and it crash, even if I restore files from older version.
I must reinstall beta2 to make windows\system files updated again and BlueIDE work again !!!!

it's always a bad thing to automatically overwrite windows system files without asking user doing it !

Hi Freddix,

BlueIDE will only update your components if they are out of date - they are official Microsoft components and according to MS should be fully backwards compatible.

Some users don't have the latest version of Common Controls which BlueIDE needs.

BlueIDE RC1-3 does not update any windows files, only the Beta2 installer does.

Slight bug with the plugin information window. It doesn't clear the info when you click the close button, so you end up with the info from the last plugin you viewed and the info from the current plugin underneath.
It clears the info if you use the little [x] in the top right corner but not if you use the close button in the bottom right.

Hi Froggermon

Auto-backup is implemented, you can set backup options from Tools > IDE Settings > [Backup Tab]

You can choose to auto-backup after 5,10 or 15 minutes, backup on save and/or on compile, and you can set the folder to store backups in.

Is the version information added into the executable correctly ? The reason I'm asking is that I set the file version to 0.0.0.1, and XP properties show it as 1.0.0.0

Hmm, looks like this confuses a few people. Maybe I should call it RedIDE instead

OK, quick update on what is happening:

- Fixed labels bug with Goto Definition
- Fixed Plugin Information bug
- Fixed "New Project" creating an additional include bug
- Improved speed of variable fixup case
- Received a couple more reports of Type Mismatch on startup, still trying to work that one out.
- Managed to get a very rare & sporadic Run Time Error 5 on exit, but unable to reproduce reliably
- Added Close File option under file menu, includes can now be closed as well as opened when you have finished working with them
- Goto Definition works with the saved file text rather than the open file text - still need to fix that.
- Changed various error messages to make them more helpful.

Next update in a couple of weeks (I'm guessing - busy writing BlueGUI 2.x as well).

What's with the whole Blue name thing anyway? Is there an actual reason behind it, or just a name? Just interested.

Its a very modern corporate image. For example: Orange (Hutchison Whampoa owned mobile phone company). Also, its a far sight better than a lot of alternative names that spring to mind. For example: "Aunty Gertrude's Amazing IDE!"

I don't want to be imprisoned in the bunker. I hear IanM doesn't even serve his prisoners with tea. I mean, if thats the way he's going to treat his prisoners, he really doesn't deserve to have any.

I expect you weren't wearing a tie. IanM's secret base does have a strict dress code.

BUT... I am yet again causing a thread to digress. Sorry RobK. I'll shut up again.

Hi ROB K!
Well first of all, thanks a lot for creating this small miracle!!! I have been really surprised to see that it provides help (at both the status bar and the help file) for your BLUEGUI too!!! Really, really nice...

But...I think I've found a small bug. I had written a small note in the Project Organisation window. I added it, and then I realised I had something to add. I right-clicked on it and I could enter the new text. But whenever I hit "Ok" a message "Error 91 en tiempo de ejecución: La variable de tipo Object o la variable de bloque With no está establecida". Then your IDE closes without any other warning.

The translation of that text in Spanish (I don't know why, as I use XP in English) is:

"Execution time ERror 91: The variable of Object type or the block variable With isn't stablished".

I have tried it several times with the same result.

Yes I am. I have reinstalled it, and keeps showing that error.

Another small thing. Though this is not a bug, it annoys a bit. If you open the help window as a free one, once you close it you aren't sent back to the IDE but to another window opened at that time. I mean, it should bring me back to the window that called it (the IDE) as it was the last one called, but instead goes to another window I don't know why.

Very minor bugs but the syntax of long commands sometimes gets cut off in the status bar.


Also I am still having troble with the save on compile option needing to be turned on every time I start bide, can't remember if I mentioned it before or not.

I read some of this but didn't have time to read all posts . Has anyone asked about the scroll bar not updating as you scroll with mousewheel? Not a bug I don't think its more of just an annoyance Everything else is great so far. Keep up the good work!

I've tried it just now and the scrollbar moves correctly when rotating the mousewheel - what OS are you using?

Could have something to do with it indeed.

New release folks, not all issues have been resolved, and there are some very important ones I need to deal with before release.

The purpose of RC4 is mainly some performance improvements, and I have finally produced a full installer.

Release Candidate 4
===================
- Fixed bug where program would exit if DBPro folder not found and program tried to prompt user
- Improved 'Fix Up Variable Case' performance
- Added programs menu - drop any files into the tools folder, eg: programs, shortcuts etc. and they will be
accessible easily via Tools > Programs
You can open the tools folder by going to Tools > Programs > Open Tools Folder
(Renamed media browser to Media Browser.exe as a result of this change)
- New project option created additional include file - fixed.
- Fixed bug where plugin information list was not cleared depending on how the form was closed
- Seperate close file & close project buttons. Include files can now be closed after they have been opened
main source file stays open at all times.
- BrowseInfo file did not locate labels - now fixed
- Labels had a colon after their names in the label list, now fixed.
- Various tweaks to improve speed with large source files
- Added more helpful error messages in various places
- Various other tweaks & bugfixes

BlueIDE RC4 (3.3MB - excludes CHM help and Media Browser)

Common DLL Updater (3.3MB - includes all the necessary DLLs required by BlueIDE, if you have not used the IDE before you will probably need to install this first).

The CHM help files & media browser have not changed since Beta 2, however if you do not have them, you need to download them from here:

http://www.robertknight.me.uk/files/darkbasic/Media_Help.zip

Copy the contents into your %BlueIDE%Tools folder (Usually Crogram FilesProgrammingBlueIDETools).

Existing users please note that the media browser has been renamed from browse.exe to Media Browse.exe

You can get easy access to the tools folder in this release from the new Tools > Programs menu, you can also place any shortcuts in this folder to get instant access to other important tools.

BlueGUI:Windows UI Plugin - All the power of the windows interface in your DBPro games. - Plus URL download, win dialogs.
