I'm working on an update today! I promise, unless aliens come and abduct me or the Men in Black come and lock me up, that I WILL release an update before midnight (MST), even if it doesn't have everything I want in it. I just noticed that you haven't had any sort of update since I released version 1.0, and I have done some work on it since then, but never released it.

So, please keep the aliens and any men in black suits away, and I'll give you version 1.1 tonight.

Edit:
Don't download this one. It has a bug with the help screen. Download the one in my next post

Ok everyone,
HERE IS THE UPDATE!
It's not nearly all I wanted to do, but I think I've fixed most of the main issues that were addressed. Here's what's happened so far that I remembered to write down in my CS log:

Fixed cursor bug that Zircher mentioned.
Improved speed of intellisense with large lines of code (may still need work)
Disabled intellisense when inside of comments
Functions, labels, and types inside of comment blocks no longer show up in the code explorer.
Update the menu control, so hopefully it works properly with Vista.

Sorry, Alsan, it still doesn't have a line concatenation feature yet. I only had time to do bug fixes this time. There's soooo much I'd love to do. I'm thinking of starting a version 2.0 sometime and see if I can figure out things like function folding, smarter intellisense, and lots of other cool features.

So, please test it and let me know especially if the menus work properly on Vista. Also, let me know if it does any better on editing long lines of code.

Until next time,
Enjoy.

Crap! On the JEDI sourceforge page, they said they thought this was fixed, but it wasn't totally confirmed. I guess I need to find another menu control that works with Vista then.

Anyway, updating my Jedi components also caused another problem which some of you may have noticed. The help window doesn't appear when you load up CodeSurge. But if you resize the application, it appears. Anyway, I fixed it now, so I hope everything's good. Download attached.

Nooooooooooo!

I hate long lines so much, I want that feature now! ^^

Seriously, it's always great to download new versions of your favourite softwares.

Can't really test if the speed issue on large lines is gone, though, as I never noticed that problem very much. ^^

Not sure if its a great idea or not, but what about a highlighter? To highlight certain lines and stuff. That'd be useful, at least to me!

Shell Shock,
Do you mean highlight multiple lines so you can notice them easily?

@All,
I'm waiting for feedback to know how this update has been working. Has anyone noticed a speed increase with long lines of code? Just wondering how it's doing for everyone.

I had a near complete lock up with the program consuming 98-99% of my system resources while trying to open a menu item. I'll spend more time with CodeSurge tomorrow and see if I can duplicate the problem.

Zircher,
You're not using Vista are you? The menus are known to go very slow. You have to put it in compatability mode for now until I can get the menu control sorted.

HeavyAmp,
I just did a little playing around, and it appears there's some sort of bug when you dock the help window to certain places and then close it, it won't show up again. I'm not totally sure exactly what causes it, but the easiest way to fix it for now is to delete your cssettings.ini file to restore the default settings. I'll have to do some more debugging and see if I can figure out exactly what causes the problem.

Ok thanks will give it a go. Yep that did the trick. Although I didn't have any problems with the default editor I like the look of this one better. I didn't like the blue background in the default and I like the way codesurge has the RGB tool also the way its layed out.

Sorry about not replying sooner. Ice storm knocked out the power for the last six and half days. What do you mean by a compatibility mode? WinXp has a Win95 compatibility mode, but that doesn't seem to make a difference.

I meant if you're running Vista, you need to put it in compatability mode for the menus to work right. I assume you're running WinXP, though, so that has nothing to do with the problem you mentioned. Can you duplicate what caused the problem?

Unfortunately, I am not able to duplicate the problem at this time. Given that I plan to be doing a lot of coding over the holidays, I'll have plenty more chances to stumble across that glitch. I'll let you know if I can determine what triggers that behavior on my machine (WinXP Pro with the latest updates.)

It takes me reworking how it creates the code explorer. I've wanted to do it for a while, but it's a fair amount of work to do it. The intellisense still works for all your functions in all source files, though.

I'll get this figured out in a future update.

hyrichter, I noticed you didn't fix the syntax highlighting I mentioned before. So I played with it a bit more and noticed something else though that may help you solve this issue quicker. Previously I stated

Quote: "
world As Integer ( As does not highlight )
make As Float ( As does not highlight )

I even replaced 'As' with other single worded keywords such as If and Or and they won't highlight because 'world', and 'make' are part of multi-worded keywords.
"


But also if you type

world 1000 ( 1 will not highlight )
make 4321 ( 4 will not highlight )

So my guess would be the problem lies in the parsing special characters or spaces in general to separate the multi-worded keywords since it seems to be reading an extra character after the space when looking for a multi-worded keyword but not finding one.

Just a question and sorry if its been answered.
But does anyone else get a ten second pause before the program starts compiling?
It doesn't matter how large the code is, there is still this annoying pause before it processes it.

There've been a couple times where it took the compiler a few seconds to load, but usually it's instant. Most of the time, it instantly starts compiling when you tell it to. Does it say "Loading compiler" while it's waiting? This means that CodeSurge is just waiting for the compiler to start doing its job. I'm not sure what would cause the problem other than a dodgy install or something hogging system resources.

Do you get the pause only with CodeSurge or does it also happen with other IDE's? That is rather odd.

BTW...I'm using Windows XP Home Edition. Also, version .9 build 5of CodeSurge worked fine. I've not tried upgrading since version .9. This is a significant enough bug that I need to re-install version .9. My source is about 27000 lines.

Also, on version .9 as well as the Dec. version of CodeSurge, a COPY of a right click of a line of text requires a couple of clicks on the COPY before the right clicked menue disappears and the highlighted text is copied. This is an annoyance.

For some reason when I open codesurge it gives me the error "Access violation at address 0014E796 in module "CodeSurge.exe". Read of address 00000008." I just wiped my hard drive and reinstalled it to another drive (not C), so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it. I did set the DBPro path. I can also just hit "ok" on the message it goes away and codesurge opens, but it's a bit annoying . Anyone know the problem and a solution?

@thedubdube,
No one else that I know of has mentioned it. I wish I knew why it was giving you a problem. That's strange that it works with version .9 as I can't remember changing anything with how the search works.

@Gil,
Strangeness. Again I wish I knew the solution to this.

Gah, suddenly I'm having a lot of wierd problems with Codesurge and I think it has something to do with my hard drive wipe rather than the program itself. Any idea why I would be missing some necessary program or something that would cause problems? The problems I've had are after hitting ctrl+f to search, it doesn't respond (it doesn't freeze, and all the buttons are clickable, they just won't do anything) and suddenly takes up 55% of the CPU so I just have to close it with task manager, the label list will suddenly and for a reason I can't figure out duplicate each entry, sometimes as much as 6-7 times, so if your list was:


it would suddenly change to this:

It takes about 3-5 seconds to even open a .dbpro file, and before it didn't take any. The toolbar also sometimes doesn't respond, like my mouse doesn't exist. Sometimes other parts of the program stop responding, sometimes when I try to close out it won't close, or when it asks me if I want to save my changes if freezes up like it does when I search for something. I'm not saying it's codesurge, but I was wondering if I could be missing something that is causing these sudden problems or if anyone else has had them. If not it looks like my only solution is to find another IDE .

So you're saying all these problems started happening after you wiped your drive? That's really strange. Did you do a complete format and reinstall everything?

Perhaps you can try a slightly older version like the last .9 and see if it gives the same problems. I did update a bunch of my Delphi components before this last release, but that's all I can think of that I did.

Yeah, and I also bought a new hard drive which I'm running Codesurge on now .

No, sorry, I bought the new hard drive before the wipe, but put codesurge on it after the wipe, so I wasn't sure if that was the cause of the problems, which I'm still having .

I just upgraded to the latest version from 0.9 and it's really awful slow. I'm actually going back to the old version it's so slow.

The new version takes about 7 seconds to load while the older version takes 2 seconds. That's more than three times slower.

I was playing around with it a little today, and it seems that this newest version doesn't really get along with the older cssettings.ini file that would be there from before. Try deleting that file and see if it loads any faster. It seemed to do better when I did that.

I just timed it at about 3 seconds to load on my computer. Before it was taking about the 7 seconds you mentioned.

Gil,
What features are missing in this older version as opposed to the newest one so I can hopefully track down what might be causing the trouble.

Well I tried another newer version from November and it's working now and it didn't before, so I'm not sure if the new version will work, I'll try it out soon .

A problem that I've had with all the versions is that if you have multiple instances of codesurge open for a while, it eventually randomly comes up with some "Access violation" pop-up, duplicating itself every second about 30 times, so eventually you have 30 pop ups to click ok through.

It might be because the DBP compiler location is not in your registry anymore, because you wiped the drive

Codesurge hates Vista.(Or Vista hates Codesurge?)

EDIT: Nevermind this, I fixed it. I copied Codesurge from my old files, and also the cssettings.ini, Which caused the problem.
