Dav IDE

[aurel]

hello Dav
I really really like to use your IDE for my qb64 programming 
but i don't see a way to set Font size to something smaller
( easpecially when larger programs is case)
i use in my own editor Consolas 10 in my Windows programs
i specially like dark theme named "Davs Colors"
i  remeber that you sayed ..you made it in Purebasic..

or maybe you have newer version ?
tnx

[Dav]

Thanks for the comments.  Only 12, 14 & 16pt font sizes are available in the last released IDE.  I would have to recompile it to add another font size.  I started working on v1.30, to update it to see the newer QB64 commands and fix bugs (it also auto spaces/beautifies the code blocks like the QB64 IDE).  Unfortunately I got burned out on it and it was starting to hurt my wrists doing all that coding so i took a break.  I'm not done with it yet, and not sure when I will put it up for download.  Yes, it is made in Purebasic.  If I do update it then yes I will add 10pt font for you.

Thanks Dav
I just have one question can you tell me how look scintilla
code for your Dav's Color theme i really like it ..it is one of best dark style i have see.
or i need to guess using some sort of Color picker.

[Dav]

Thanks aurel.   I use the GoScintilla Library for PureBasic, so I'm setting colors through that.  I also made a QB64 IDE style with those colors.  I'll post the RGB values for it also. 

When I get back home tonight I will dig those up for you and post it here - it's on my laptop there.

OK thanks ..Dav!

Hi @aurel. Sorry for the delay.  Here's the PureBasic code where I'm setting the Scintilla colors for Dav's Colors:

Code: (Select All)

If colors_davstyle = 1
    ;Set individual styles for commands.
   GOSCI_SetStyleFont(#EDIT1, #STYLES_COMMANDS, "", -1)
   GOSCI_SetStyleColors(#EDIT1, #STYLES_COMMANDS, RGB(86,165,236))
   ;Set individual styles for comments.
   GOSCI_SetStyleColors(#EDIT1, #STYLES_COMMENTS, RGB(97,121,159))
   ;Set individual styles for literal strings.
   GOSCI_SetStyleColors(#EDIT1, #STYLES_LITERALSTRINGS, RGB(100,200,150))
   ;Set individual styles for numbers.
   GOSCI_SetStyleColors(#EDIT1, #STYLES_NUMBERS, #White)    
   ;Set individual styles for constants.
   GOSCI_SetStyleColors(#EDIT1, #STYLES_CONSTANTS, RGB(205,218,243))
   ;Set individual styles for functions.
   GOSCI_SetStyleColors(#EDIT1, #STYLES_FUNCTIONS, RGB(86,165,236))  
   ;Set individual styles for separators.
   GOSCI_SetStyleColors(#EDIT1, #STYLES_SEPARATORS, #White) 
   ;Set individual styles for operators.
   GOSCI_SetStyleColors(#EDIT1, #STYLES_OPERATORS, RGB(205,218,243))  
  EndIf

That probably isn't too helpful for you, but here are the default 'Dav's IDE' colors and 'Dav's Colors' scheme setting for the QB64 IDE.

Code: (Select All)

'[IDE COLOR SCHEMES]
Scheme2$ = "Davs Colors|205218243086165236255255255100200150086165236097121159033050069047064091051153255"
Scheme1$ = "Dav's IDE|255255255255255000255255128128255255255255000128255128000064064010074074128255128"

Finally, here's the 'Dav's Colors' (R,G,B) colors for each item:

Normal text: (205,218,243)
Keywords: (86,165,236)
Numbers: (255,255,255)
Strings: (100,200,150)
Metacommand/custom keywords: (86,165,236)
Comments: (97,121,159)
Background: (33,50,69)
Current line background: (47,64,91)
Bracket/selection highlight: (51,153,255)

No..the oposite it is very helpful because i can test this in scintilla control directly

I usually use Dav's IDE with QB64.  I would also like to see a 10 point font (Consolas would be fine).

I've not been programming with QB64 since before its change to QB64 Phoenix.  What I am finding is that I get a compile error with V0.6 and 0.7.1 using Dav's IDE.  I don't get it with the QB64 IDE.  Doesn't need to be complicated  code.  Something as simple as:

Code: (Select All)

for x = 1 to 5
   print "x = ";x
next

comes up with the error "ERROR: C++ compilation failed".

The compilelog.txt file shows:

 internal\c\c_compiler\bin\c++.exe -w -DGLEW_STATIC -DFREEGLUT_STATIC -DDEPENDENCY_NO_SOCKETS -DDEPENDENCY_NO_PRINTER -DDEPENDENCY_NO_ICON -DDEPENDENCY_NO_SCREENIMAGE internal\c/qbx.cpp -c -o internal\c/qbx.o

internal\c\c_compiler\bin\objcopy.exe --strip-unneeded "C:\Users\raywo\Documents\A_Programming\BASIC\QB64\_avsIDE-TEMPFILE.exe"

The above compile error file means nothing to me but may be helpful

I have tried on both Windows 11 and Windows 10 computers with the same result.

QB64 installation method:
Download QB64 Phoenix and drag the resultant QB64 folder to C:\.
Download Dav's IDE from his website and drag the 2 files into QB64.  DavsIDE.ini is produced on running DavsIDE.exe.

I hope the problem can be resolved to enable me to use Dav's IDE again.

@RNBW. Wow, thanks for that report.  I don't get that error in Win7.   Obviously DavsIDE is handling/calling the temp files differently under Win10 & Win11.  I will put this bug at the top of the list.  I have access to a Win10 tablet to test on.  I'm going bug hunting with it!  Thanks -- this is the motivation I needed to get back on it.  That's two votes for 10pt font.  Will do ...

I would point out that the IDE worked OK with QB64 V0.5 in both Windows 10 and 11.
