This morning I attended a visual studio 2010 presentation and the speaker showed us the power of XNA framework (for game development).
He had a pane on the left with a list box containing "code snippets". Double-clicking on one item made VS insert that code (multiline code, only the first line shown in the listbox) in the source code. He used this to insert a group of lines in order to explain us what they were for.... I believe that this feature is nice and can be easily accomplished. To populate the code snippet repository you can make a selection in the source code and then drag it in the list box... only the first line is shown in the list box. ---------------- On Friday I attented a Spring framework course, using Eclipse.... I have to say that Eclipse is a very nice tool and its integration with Java language is really good. Today I also saw VS2010 in action and it is also a really good IDE. Both have very powerfull "intellisense", syntax checking (no coloring, real syntax checking).... Now, can this feature be created in hbide ? ... actually a sort of compiler is already present in a harbour compiled executable since you may need to compile codeblock at runtime, so when CR button is pressed and no ; at the EOL is present, we can pass the line to the compiler and check for validity... you don't have to execute the code, just do syntax checking _______________________________________________ Harbour mailing list (attachment size limit: 40KB) Harbour@harbour-project.org http://lists.harbour-project.org/mailman/listinfo/harbour
