Thank you!

Testing right now.

Hopefully the editor is better, because whatever new Clang version I'm using is definitely a miserable editing experience versus the old TheIDE.

There is also another problem I've noticed:

SQLite doesn't seem to work in release mode (in Windows). Examples, such as SQL_SQLite, fail to create tables with the following log:

* C:\Users\user2\Desktop\upp\out\reference\CLANGx64.Blitz\SQL_Sqlite3.exe 04.11.2024 16:38:05, user: user2

ERROR no such table: SIMPLE_TEST1(1): Preparing: insert into SIMPLE_TEST1(ID, NAME, LASTNAME, BDATE) values (0, 'Joe', 'Smith', 20000101)

ERROR no such table: SIMPLE_TEST1(1): Preparing: select ID, NAME, LASTNAME, BDATE from SIMPLE_TEST1
ERROR no such table: SIMPLE_TEST1(1): Preparing: select * from SIMPLE_TEST1

Am I missing something here, this shouldn't be happening in release mode, right? The examples work fine (read: can succesfully create and query tables) in debug mode.

After some more testing, not all the awkwardness of the editor is done.

Example, open up AddressBook, go to a function where "array" is defined, type array, then '.', autocomplete popup, press down arrow to navigate the list, press tab, the editor add a tab instead of auto-complete. Other scenarios involving tab work.

Yes, it should insert the autocomplete. In fact it does, if in the scenario I described, you do not press down arrow, but go directly for tab. Interacting with the drop down removes the tab behavior.

PS: How on God's earth have you managed to integrate Clang. I'm not using lib-clang, but lib-llvm and it is impossible to link with it. And trying to download a precompiled version that matches what I have is a nightmare...

Hello cbpporter,

Thank you for your feedback! However, it is more about features request rather than fixing existing problems. So, we shouldn't address it right now and create next rc candidate after that.

For vswhere. Thansk for providing that information it is nice to know that something like that exist. I agree that we should launch this binary and then analyze the output in the first place. It looks like the installation path is there:

resolvedInstallationPath: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community

However, what about if you install Visual Studio Installer to the diffrent path. Then launching vswhere will be problematic. Also, I am afraid that after some time M$ could change the path to Program Files.

For 'tab' and autocomplete in Assist++ dialog. As Mirek noticed, we didn't support it in the past. However, after verifying with other IDE's I agree that should normalized the behavior and allow tab to act as enter.

Mine is installed in weird locations and the tool does report the correct paths. First we should check all possible program files. That's why I want to prototype a new detect using vswhere. DirFinder solution no longer works.

Edit: with how iffy VS is, doesn't hurt to have a fallback or two.

Proper PR with better VS detection will be accepted fast.. That said, not a high priority for me - I mean, I do not plan to work on this personally.

I had such an encounter which I cannot reproduce. I was editing something in TheIDE. An accidental mouse movement maybe in combination with mouse click, etc caused a help window being popup with the mouse pointer becoming a up-pointer finger, carring a info popup with it. The mouse were thus captured and no effort (key strokes, mouse clicks, etc) could release the capture. Keyboard were still working but I eventually had to power off my computer and restarted it to come out of the situation.


ubuntu 24.04+wayland
TheIDE version: 17449

Well, gtk should automatically release mouse capture when all mouse buttons are released...

Not this year

Was not a priority so far. Can be done I think, we already have all pieces ready (rectangular selection, paste in column). Keep asking and it will happen.
