New release 2024 "alpha phase"
type: item
description: 2024 (rev. >17373) (Sep 2024) Upcoming release Core First release of U++ that requires C++17 Moveable concept redesigned with C++17 features. U++ now allows non-moveable types to be stored in Vector flavor of containers (using Upp::is_upp_guest). PODs are automatically moveable (aka trivially relocatable) Upp::Tuple now supports structured binding GetFileTime, GetFileLength, FileExists, DirectoryExists and FileMapping refactored Stream::GetAll now invokes LoadError on negative count ValueCache limits setting methods are simplified Value now directly supports 'float' type Some iffy code now made more C++ compliant (e.g. always using memcpy for unaligned data) AsXML had new XML_ESCAPELF plugin/Zip zip64 support Draw UHD image now can serve as source for SD image New S3 .iml image flag - the images are drawn supersampled 3x, usually without antialiasing, and only downsampled at runtime Painter Multithreaded rendering further optimised New image filtering parameter - so far, rendering image was always with bilinear filtering, new parameter allows other Image filter like Lanczos 3 CtrlCore Horizontal mouse scroll wheel support CtrlMapper now provides operator()(Ctrl, T, const T& factor) for simple unit conversions gtk backend improvements, XWayland mouse cursor bug workaround CtrlLib CtrlMapper now provides operator()(Ctrl, T, const T& factor) for simple unit conversions ide Icon Designer refactored and optimised, new tools added, S3 flag support added Alt-M now goes to special scratchpad file of the same type as is current file, this is helpful e.g. for temporary storing and editing parts of .iml images that are then composed to the final image. Output directory in assembly definition now can be left empty and defaults to reasonable path. Hexadecimal view is now much faster Fixed further corner case Assist++ problems Layout designer text field, used with e.g. Labels, now has Qtf button to edit text with RichEdit Git file history now goes through renames Compare with men…

It is complicated to produce working binary of your application on 10 years old distro if it uses c++ 17, which unfortunatly, believe or not, some consumers require... What C++17 adds is good, but does not fundamentally change the way we are using C++ (unlike C++11/14). Makes sense to lag a bit.

Best regards, Tom That is suprisingly complicated problem... Build method actually does not really know / care about that. And frankly, so far, there were no specific library names for 64-bit, usually in win32, they are just placed to different folders. If you think this is really worth fixing, the simple way is to put something into Common fixed flags in the build method. I can do that in automatic build method setup... I guess placing "M32" to 32-bit build methods should do the job. Mirek

Adding a 'M32' in 'Common fixed flags' for 32-bit CLANG allowed using condition 'WIN32 !M32' for a 64-bit DLL to prevent the linking error. It probably would not hurt to have a M32 and/or M64 flags pre-defined for the corresponding builders to make this work out of the box. Best regards, Tom

description: Mirek, I started to have trouble seeing some of the TheIDE packages' names properly. Then I noticed that the Dark theme coloring has changed. Especially Draw, PdfDraw and all <aux> packages are really hard to read for me. The screenshot is from Linux Mint using dark theme, but I'm having the same issue on Windows dark theme too, although the darker background helps there a little bit. (I must remind you that I have red-green colorblindness, like 8 % of European men do. Not sure if this contributes to the issue I'm having now with those texts. To simulate red-green colorblindness to the people with normal color perception, try to flatten your red color channel to something like 0.. 10 % of the original and see how your GUI looks. Might be a good idea to do this test with any GUI design to ensure accessibility for guys like me.) Best regards, Tom EDIT: Sorry, I seem to have misplaced this posting... Just found there's a thread for this at https://www.ultimatepp.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=123 29&goto=60794&#msg_60794 , so feel free to move this posting to that thread.

Thanks and best regards, Tom Hi, Settings were showing small font size for all but the 'Normal', which I had probably changed by Ctlr+Wheel. So I must have initially started in HD mode. First I tried to fix it by using 'Restore defaults' and then 'Close'. This caused TheIDE to crash on every attempt. Then I selected the same font sizes manually and the values were successfully updated after close. So, there must be some issue with 'Restore defaults'. Anyway, now I have the correct UHD font sizes.
