IDE-Tools EurOmnis 2012/2014 Flash session

[Udo Sonnabend]

Hi All

`Will give my IDE-Tools showed at EurOmnis flash sessions 2012 and 2014 to the community.

They are at the moment on our FTP-Site:
http://fileexchange.wigasoft.ch/
User: omnisdevlist
PW: $sendAll

(There is a commitee constituted at EurOmnis2014 to create an open VCS… they will be availible there too – if…;)

Teaser:
=====
Imagine – after having  programed dozends of Libraries – thausends of classes – a complex subwindow structure - and then maintain this program (after you layed half a year in the sun – `d wish for you ;-) - Just find the right library – class – and then the method -  to put your breakpoint in it ;-)

Imagine - open your window, move the mouse to your point of interest and type a short cut key to:

-          Show  the method behind that object to put any breakpoint in it,

-          Show the design/layout of that object and show it selected to do….your desired layout immediatly,

-          inspect the WHOLE corresponding list under your mouse representing this value,

-          inspect („all“) runtime properties of that object,

-          show the associated schema, table or file class of the object,

-          show subwindow instance values of that object….

If you are editing methods of a class - immedialty switch to:

-          Showing the class in browser,

-          showing the class in VCS,

-          showing the revision history,

-          showing the superclass

-          Check In/Out or switch the checkedout flag

-          ….


Supported version are starting at Studio Version 4.3. – Version 6 tiny resp. not  tested - there are gotchas !
May be not all parts are working for you, but it is at least a start to get a „flowing“ IDE to push the Omnis community ;-)

Below is part of  the readme file.
Please feel free to distribute, share, enhance
…and please report any bugs and comments to usonnabend at wigasoft.ch<mailto:usonnabend at wigasoft.ch>.

PS: I gave my IDETools to Bob Whiting at EurOmnis 2014 – hoping - some functions will become part of the Omnis core and hopefully better implemented than my heuristic approach.
