MaxIDE Community Edition - v2.00 beta 3

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Programming/MaxIDE Community Edition - v2.00 beta 3

The forum is locked. These are the original blitzbasic.com forums, kept so they can still be read. No new topics, replies or edits can be made here. To join in, head over to the Blitz3D+ forums.

There are a couple of known bugs in the beta3 exe (undo can go a bit screwy after a while), bit nothing too major.

The source will compile and run fine on Windows, and has those bugs fixed. I believe it should also be okay on MacOS.

On linux things get a little tricky. If using FLTK, you need to apply a fix to FLTK (see higher up the thread) to get ExtractIconFromPixmap working. If using GTK, and Ubuntu 7.04 or before (or equivalent linux kernel) it should be okay. If using GTK and Ubuntu 7.10 or above, there is a "bug" or conflict of some kind in Brucey's GTK implementation and/or pub.freeprocess that causes a lock up.

I'd really like to get the linux side working, but it really needs Brucey's time to look at the gtk thing.

As for wxMax - not going to happen. wxMax looks like it works so differently to maxgui, you might as well start again. Maxgui is now up to speed on all platforms IMHO, and will continue to be used in this project. *If* there were to be a Maxgui.wxMax driver, now that would be a different matter, but a) not sure Brucey would want to do it, and b) not sure there'd be much point!

I've been real busy this past 2 weeks with work, but hope to nail a last annoying bug with undo and put up beta4 this weekend. Hopefully...if I don't get too distracted by Wii Fit (wife's got it at the moment...)
