Hello,
I am going to make some small tool application (up to 5 "dialogs", small XML processing) and Ultimate++ seems to be good framework to use - applications tends to have low memory and harddisk footprint, which is very good. (I consider situation "Yes, I made a great small tool, the only thing you need to do prior to using it is installing a .Net Framework 4.0. It takes only 2GB on your disk." a bit weird... (ideal Czech word is "zhulenư" .. I assume I am not the only Czech here, am I?  ) )
When I was "playing" with TheIDE, I found a lot of good things and it is more than OK for small projects. But as I can see on your web, you (or someone else?) did quite a huge applications using this (mainly IDIS). Hm...
- what about a refactoring support in TheIDE? I have found nothing. I don't mention moving classes through namespaces or from one library to another, but what about simple function or variable name changes? I do it almost every day in my work... (Java and C#)
- if I divide an application into multiple packages (which is often done when you are making some software of significant size), is there any way to tell the IDE that I want to make package1 as a dll and copy it to output dir and then a package2 as exe and copy it to output? This is very usual scenario.
Thank you for replying

I guess I never worked with an IDE that would have such functions. Or I never needed them I do all of the tasks you named using "Replace in files" dialog... I never needed anything else If you could point me to some example of software which uses this, I might tell you more. Even video tutorial showing the function would be great. Also, some time ago someone wrote a CodeMetric tool (it is somewhere in the svn) which analyses the code complexity... That is probably the only refactoring support we have

Yes, there is a concept of custom build steps. These can be executed for each file with given extension or in pre-linking or post-linking stage. Such custom step executes given external command, so you can create e.g. synchronization script and call it after linking. As copy is very common task, there is even specialized instruction for that
Best regards,
Honza
PS: (regarding the Czech) Jo, par se nas tady najde

Well, I see the point of the refactoring helpers now. Thanks for enlighting me
Sadly, I have to admit TheIDE doesn't have that. Maybe an idea for future development. But as you noticed, some pretty large projects have been done with it but nobody really asked for such functionality. Maybe it is because with the fast rebuilds (thanks to blitz) it is really easy to change one thing in definition, hit F5 to rebuild and then just go through the errors (F4) which will exactly show you all the places where the appropriate changes must be done as well. It sound like middle-age technology compared to the stuff in your links, but I guess it is what we all use and we are happy about it

I'm still trying to embrace clang. With it any kind of refactoring seems to be possible. I use Find and Replace a lot, but it's for sure very troublesome comparing to reach refactoring tools in Intelli J Idea for instance.
