Minor improvements [v0.2.7.1]
Ok, exams are over - and there are updates:
- Incremental build fixes -- Object file names are generated on every rebuild now, which is needed especially for sharing project files on different platforms as well as changing the active build configuration often. So there is less obj-file confusion after this patch
- a Unittest configuration is added now by default -- Newly created projects will have a special test configuration which adds a "-unittest" to the extra compiler arguments - so switching e.g. between Debug and Unittest builds isn't that difficult anymore.
- Code completion fix -- There is no completion list shown when typing characters inside a comment or string literal. I know it was there some time ago already - but somehow this filter was removed so I had to add it again.
- Formatting fixes -- again this uncomfortable topic, but it had to be improved another once.
- The default objects-dictionary is "obj" now, not "objs" anymore.
If you wonder
why there seem to be no new Mono-D versions - just reinstall it - I upload small fixes very often but don't increase the version number - because they're small ones only
So e.g. I fixed formatting, again, and added task list support - so the codes' TODOs, HACKs and FIXMEs will become enlisted in the task list panel now.
As an idea, you could add "BUG" to the task key tokens - so bug notes like they exist in phobos sources will be parsed, too.
Task notes in the code (HACK/TODO/FIXME/UNDONE by default) will be listed in MonoDevelop's task panel
A small development break (or just slow-down, dunno)
There are a couple of exams coming up for me the next weeks - so I guess there won't be that huge development progresses right now.
Issue reports
are indeed better than posting single problems into the feedback page. A non-ironically meant "Thanks" for the huge amount of reports coming in (quite) every day!
Fixes [v0.2.5]
- Curly brackets indentation fixes - now indentation should be even better, and of course, less annoying
- Verbatim string highlighting fix - wysiwyg strings become highlighted correctly now - fantastic to see what one line of xml code is able to change
- Identifier typing fix - for less disturbing completion list popups
- Parser fixes. The new lambda syntax was mixing some other elements up
Good news concerning tool tips!
Our pull request has been applied to the MonoDevelop master branch - so in the next MD versions, code tooltips will be available by default!
Bin path option + Symbol resolution fixes [v0.2.3]
Furthermore, another small improvement which doesn't let mono-d highlight all Foo-symbols anymore. (Renaming and completion features are also affected.)
Language/Library reference browsing [v0.2.2]
As an other small feature, I put in the possibility to press F1 to gain "Help & Support" - by interpreting the current code context and redirecting the user to the respective page on d-programming-language.org
