UI layouts from existing code (a suggestion).
 By BiPolar - Posted on May 6, 2008 - 15:11:16   (#22783)

May I suggest to look at Entice Designer (http://www.dprogramming.com/entice.php) and the code it generates?

It's a GUI designer for the DFL library (D Language).

Why I'm suggesting you to take a look at it?
Because from all the GUI designers that do "GUI source code generation" (instead of saving/loading as resources) I've seen, it is the less obtrusive one.

I mean, the generated GUI code looks really clean, and doesn't gets in your way.

You do not feel you're "fighting" that code, thus you're more likely to use it :)

Thanks for your work!

Code completion

Just to let you know, Niue 4 will have full-featured code-completion!

The code-backup tool is also finished mostly, I've now started to work on a way to load ui layouts in the Visual Designer from existing code.

A lot of sourcecode comes from (or is inspired by) other projects. F.i. most of the syntax highlighting code comes from the editor Yate. But there are also large part that I've written myself like the Visual Designer and browsing/opening/saving/exporting the projects.

For the next version (2-3 months) are planned:
- A source-backup/version control tool
- Improved Search and Replace
- The earlier promised makefile-generator
- (Some) support for existing code in Visual-Designer
- Whatever comes along, and many more

p.s. I've added an Align to Grid button to the Visual Designer, thanks for the tip ;)

Impressing 0033

Somehow has a little of all needed things:

- Editor
- UI generator
- Project managementv

I hope you are not coing all that form scratch :) there are many projects around to get code from.

As requested feature: Can you make elements attach to the grid? or maybe a button that just arranges all them to the grid??

None UI generator in BeOS had it!

Very good ver.3

I had no problem to open a new project with zeta 1.2.
Only mouse-wheel still wont work for me... no idea why.

Very nice program and well documented. Wished I could program much better.

boot/develop/headers and libs are needed, isn't it? What else for minimum use?

Thx Bruno

Hi Michael,

Where exactually do you run into this bug, I can't seem to reproduce it running Zeta 1.2.0. Do mean clicking 'New Project' in the 'File' menu??

Thanks for your report,

0033

Small bug

Found a bug...

When I open Niue, Clicking on File --> New causes it to crash.

I use Zeta 1.5.

Other than that, it works great.

Thanks.

Hi all,

Hi all,

Niue version 3 is out, see above for what's new.
I'm still very curious about your findings, let me know!

Hi Koki,

Thanks for the tip, I'll look into GuiBerry and see if it can help me.

The default font actually is fixed-width, somehow I didn't notice that I changed it before taking the screenshot... :)

Nice project

I am not a programmer either, but I still like how your project is shaping up. A couple of observations:

The screenshot shows that proportional fonts are being used in the editor. I believe it is preferable to use a fixed-width font instead, so maybe you consider changing the default font.

I am not sure if it is relevant, but I wanted to make you aware of a project called GuiBerry, which may be a source of inspiration/code for your project. GuiBerry is a QuickRes + GUI editor by Momoziro (a Japanese dev). Development is kind of stalled, but the sources ara available here:

http://f-x.haiku-talkers.net/archive/GuiBerry/GuiBerry-1.1.zip

Last but not least, have you considered using OSDrawer.net to manage your project?

Keep up the good work!

Makefile generator
 By 0033 - Posted on March 13, 2008 - 15:57:11   (#22569)
 Current version when comment was posted: 2
For the next version I've planned a makefile generator, which automatically creates/updates a makefile according to the files in your project, plus some extra settings like libraries etc.

Also Drag 'n' Drop needs major improvements. There will also be a preferences panel and a snippet manager.

Nice

I'm still looking into it, but this seems to be a very cool programming tool - especially syntax hilite looks very nice. Keep up the good work!
Perhaps you should add some more Drag'n'drop support - it is sometimes easier to just drop (multiple) files to a project.
It would be also great to have makefile generated for you when you open an existing project folder (existing sources) - or simply a menu option to do that.


1.5 skipped, here goes Niue 2

Teamwork?

Maby we can work together
I developed Projectonceptor (full Application framework with Target UI /API and Class design)

http://www.projectconceptor.de
http://www.projectconceptor.de/component/option,com_rsgallery2/Itemid,2/page,inline/id,5/catid,2/limitstart,0/

Later my plan was also to include also a Code Editor.

Maby it´s possible to work togehter to push both Projects :)
Projectconceptor alread offers Undo/Redo Support
Makro support, Plugin support, Translator Support, Printingsupport, Toolbar and so on.
Already sent you an email but it seem like it was marked as spam :).
I also Developing at the Moment a TextViewCompleter Class for the ProjectConceptor wich would allow to create a "easy" autocomletition.

Just a idea :)

If you have eniugh patience, you may insetigate Pe-editor source-code:
http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/pe-editor/trunk/Sources/
maybe this file:
http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/pe-editor/trunk/Sources/CLanguageInterface.h
can help in start?

Source release, need help!

As of now all source-code of Niue is available. Furthermore I've added drag 'n drop support to Niue :)

At the moment I'm really stuck at creating decent syntax highlighting for c++ files, if you can help please let me know! What I'm basically looking for is a BTextView that does elementary syntax highlighting.

Help with this is greatly appreciated, also don't hesitate to grab the source-code and alter/improve it, just let me know...

@atomozero, jam will possibly be supported in the future, but definitely not on short notice.

Someone has to "take the torch"

Luck! an great job!

In the future will be compatible with Jam?

I like how the app automagically finds projects with makefiles. I would not go with overisized Build buttons - a toolbar may be a better option.
