news from the dead

i realize it's been a while since any kind of update has been posted, and unfortunately it may be a little while longer before one is again. aside from having a crazy summer concert tour planned, i've had a couple other events occur in my life recently that have left me little time for anything else. but fear not, i am committed to continuing work on this project. once i return from bonnaroo things should calm down a bit, leaving me more time to focus my attention here.

and now the news you've been waiting for

*drum roll*

i am pleased to announce that a new source parser implementation has been created. i don't want to give too much away just yet incase it all blows up in my face - and it's 24 night, but all initial tests look good.

stay tuned!

'perl -c' support, round one

basic support for compiling source code via the interpreter and reporting errors back in the gui has been added. check out the screen shot below.

i'm not sure why the problem marker isn't displaying in the outline view, which is something i'll have to investigate. the next step will be to add preference support so things like warnings and taint mode and be turned on and off.

in other news, i've encountered an annoying bug that causes any folded code that falls within the definition of a SourceModule to be quickly expanded and then refolded any time a save operation has been performed. i can't seem to replicate this issue in any of the other dltk plugins (except for python) so tracking down the problem should prove to be an aggravating experience. :)

code folding improvements

after suffering many bouts of motivational deficiencies and general laziness on my part, i've gotten my act together and have finished off the code folding improvements i had been working on. here are a couple of screen shots of the new preference pages:

and here's an action shot of the editor:

it should be noted that source code folding is only going to work if you're using the experimental ppi parser. one of these days i swear i'm going to do something about the overall parser situation, but unfortunately that day is not today.
