Skufer (almost) IDE

[DiRaven]

Found a small issue - it seems to not like some statements with curly braces. For example, it is quite happy with

waitUntil {true;

//note missing brace

yet

waitUntil {true};

gives a warning and the message 'extraneous input '}' expecting SEP_SEMICOLON.

It does look very good though and might just wean me off Squint!

Yes, it probably does not like single-line statements inside curly braces (arma allows them to be without semicolon while my parser goes mad when sees that). Will fix, thanks.

Of course! Arma has made me lazy!!

Both issues are fixed in the next version. It will let you know there is braces mismatch, but for now not able to tell you where the problem is, it will just highlight the first line of the script and tell "(location unknown)". Not really great, but better then nothing.

UPD: It will try to guess the mismatched brace position, but location may not be 100% precise.

0.1.3 released.
[FIX] "waitUntil {true;" case will be reported as an error, Skufer will try to guess the location of the braces mismatch error, but this location may not be 100% precise.
[FIX] "waitUntil {true};" now will not be reported as an error.

Still trying to sort out the code folding and autoformatting. Netbeans lacks user-friendly documentation. =)

cool - will check out the new version. I really like this IDE.

EDIT ---> Small request - any chance you could get it to update if there is a version still installed? Save me having to unistall it first. Not a biggie of course!

There are few options to make reinstalling go away, but neither of them is easy, so that's not the matter of the nearest future. Anyways all the config files are untouched unless you explicitly set them to be deleted during the uninstall.

OK, no worries - I did notice that the options was there not to delete the config so that's cool. I am using this pretty much all the time now, just the occasional trip back to Squint for in-depth checking.

Ok, there are actually few ways of extending the IDE right now:
1. Keep trying to implement code folding/autoformatting - looks like a dead end for me rignt now. I'll keep searching for info and trying, but for now no progress made.
2. Work on the contextual code completion and extended contextual error reporting (like Squint does) - a whole bunch of work, actually. Not the matter of few days.
3. Incorporate few useful 3rd-party tools (optimizers, checkers etc.) into the IDE to make it more like an IDE - that is simpler task.
4. Add more filetypes support. SQS, EXT, SQM.

Any ideas? What would you like to be done first?

My take: 3, 2, 1, 4 (lowest prio)

Well since no other ideas written - I'll take it. Thanks.
