Current version 1.36.00

-no significant changes to HIDE
this is a maintenance release
-some significant changes to hidelib
many depricated functions moved to
a separate library 'oldlib.lib' and header
"hide\oldlib.hhf"
these will no longer be updated or supported.
and remain for compatibility.
because of this, any program that has used
hidelib will need a rebuild.

software and tools updates, mostly
maintenance and rebuilds with new
version of hla/hlalib

-hla 2.9, hlalib 7
-hidelib 1.70.41

HIDE description:

HIDE is an IDE for HLA based on Ketil's RAEdit.dll.  It is a complete
HLA package containing all the tools and programs
necessary to get started with Randall Hyde's HLA.
No installation is necessary, HIDE runs sets up and runs from its
own folder, and comes with a project manager for easy modular programming.


HIDE   The main IDE.
   -no install necessary, it can be run from virtually any
    folder.  All paths are relative and updated each time
    HIDE loads (if necessary).
   -autogeneration of make file for easy project management of

   -greater in-program control of link settings.
   -option to integrate with a debugger of your choice.
   -templates for fast and easy startup of new applications.

   -code folding, bookmarks, highliting, resource editor and more.
   -a library that extends the hla standard library.
   -support tools: a make program, lexer generator, document reader,
    bit-mask generator, windows header consolidator

When I tried to build to hw_win32 project, an error occured:
HLA exception 25: file open failure

Then HIDE closed itself.
Any idea why?

Looks like you have files or folders missing from your install.  There are usually two reasons for this:

1. you downloaded the upgrade instead of the full install.
2. your unzip program doesn't create empty folders.

I suspect #2 is your case.

Your HIDE root folder should have all these directories:

bin
Data
Documents
hlainc
hlalib
Projects
Temp

sometimes the "Temp" folder is missing.  If it is, create a Temp folder and you're set to go.

And check out this awesome utility :)

When i try add a button using the resource editor and after that i saving the project and pressed CTRL+F6,i get an error:

PORC: res\asd_asd.rc(9): error: BEGIN keyword expected (found: WS_VISIBLE).
PORC: res\asd_asd.rc(9): error: Invalid syntax.
Return :1

What be could be causing this?

Thx  :U

[Sevag.K]

i really couldn't say, can you send a copy of your project?

[Everdoh]

Try adding a button or any other using the resource editor

Thx  :thumbu

[Sevag.K]

Got it.

If you don't use 'style as hex' option, you'll have to include another resource file that provides all the windows constant definitions.

If you don't have this or don't want to bother with extra includes, go to the options menu in Resed, click options, click the 'behavior' tab and select the "style as hex" checkbox.  next time you save the resource project, the pesky windows definitions will go away.

that will fix your problem :)
