Coming from a "visual" programming background and experience, I can definetly say that this ide is one of the best i've seen for assembler. It is very intuitive and easy to use. Thanks for the hours of time you must have spent on this.

That being said i have yet to compile my first project in easy code IDE...

1) I open the IDE and load a standard easy code project.
2) Add 3 or so windows and dialogs to the project.
3) Try to build project, it tells me project is not saved.
4) I save project window files, one at a time as the common dialog windows open.
5) goto step 3

This happens when closing the IDE also.
It says, project isnt saved...
So i save project, and try to close IDE again....
rinse and repeat...

This could easily be something im doing wrong, if so i apologize for my ignorance...
And again, keep up the good work!
Regards,
Lewis

Edit:: Im on winXP SP2 with p3 450 512 ram

Hi Lewis,

First of all, thank you very much for your words. I really appreciate them and I'm glad you like the IDE.

About the bug you report, I cannot see any problem but I guess you may be using and old version as that problem existed before. Currently available version is 1.00.0008 (get it at: http://easycoder.org/English/Download/EasyCode108Eng.zip) and, as far as I know, it works fine saving the project. Please check the version you have installed and make sure it is 1.00.0008. If it is and the problem persists, please tell me. Thank you Lewis.

Best regards,

Ramon (rsala)

Thanks for your prompt reply Ramon, i redownloaded, re-installed, and all is fine now! Somehow i must have gotten the older version. Thanks again for your time.
Now is time for me to move to the feature request section. :)

Hi Lewis,

When I was working with last version (1.00.0009, posted today), I found the bug you reported and I fixed it, so you just have to download the Easy Code last version and the problem is over. Thank you very much for your help.

Best Regards,

Ramon

Thanks ramon for your quick bug fix... I hope you have a merry christmas!

This newest installer will not complete for me.
When it is copying LDisplay.ttf to the font folder it freezes and never recovers.
Keep up the good work!

Lewis

Hi Lewis,

Sorry about the bug you report. The installer works fine for me under Windows 98/2K (and as far as I know it also works under XP), but I'll try to find out what it happens. Meanwhile I suggest to delete LDisplay.ttf manually from the Fonts folder and try the installation again.

Rregards and Merry Christmas,

Ramon

Hi Lewis,

After several testings made by Paul E. Brennick (global moderator of Masm forum) and me, on Windows 98/XP/2K, no crash is caused even though the LDisplay.ttf file is locked, so I guess you have another problem in your system. Did you already find out how it happens? Please let me know if you have any news about your installation problem. Thank you.

Regards,

Ramon

Hi ramon,

I ended up deleting the font from my font folder, and it installed fine...
Im not sure what the problem is or was.
Thanks for your help

Thank you Lewis. I'm glad the problem is solved even though it is not clear what it was happening. Anyway, your reports are always welcome.

Alright, I've got two bugs.  The first is that the text property of editboxes doesn't seem to update when text is typed into them.  I'm really not sure if that's an actual bug or if it's just me.  I've attached sample code you can look at.  The other problem I've had is with the maxlength property of editboxes.  You'll see that in the attached project I change the property from code, but if you try to do it at design time, you'll get an error message that says object names can't start with numbers.

Please note that the attached file is a RAR inside of a ZIP.  Had to do it to get the file size down.

Hi Bieb,

I've been testing the project you attached and you are right about the Text property for edit boxes. It doesn't update at run time. This is a bug that will be fixed for future versions. Meanwhile, please use GetWindowText API function. On the other hand, property MaxLength works fine to me, both at design and run time. Please, be sure you have the Easy Code last version (1.00.0009) available at this forum (topic: Get the latest version of Easy Code here).

Ramon
