Whats New?
- SpellChecker plugin (Frank L.)
- New: codelite now fully supports CYGWIN:
- A new compiler detector was added to detect Cygwin installation
- To work with CYGWIN and CodeLite, simply launch codelite from a cygwin terminal
- New: added the ability to add a compiler simply by specifying its directory
- Quick-Find Bar - added support for "Multi Selection" - hitting the ENTER key selects the next match while keeping the previous one selected. This allows multiple find and replace.
- You can now associate a different gdb tool per compiler
- CodeLite now supports clang-format. The CodeFormatter plugin now makes it possible to select which formatter tool to use, from:
The entire dialog and options of the CodeFormatter plugin were redesigned:
- Fixed: workspace symbols colouring should work without any limitations set
- Fixed: when moving up and down the callstack while debugging with GDB, the "Locals" was not showing the correct local arguments
- Fixed: when switching to the "Callstack" tab while debugging with GDB, the view was not updated (an extra 'tab' was needed)
Theme Management
The entire theme-management / syntax-highlight system was re-written. It is now possible to create a new theme by cloning an existing theme using the UI.
- Themes are now associated with particular languages (e.g. it is now possible for C++ to have the "Monokai" theme, while other languages don't).
- Themes can now be Exported/Imported with a single click
- codelite supports eclipse's theme format for the C/C++ language. A new button was added to the "Colours and Fonts" dialog to allow importing eclipse XML theme format. You can download eclipse themes from The Eclipse Theme WebPage
Below is a screenshot of a 3 new C++ themes (3 out of many new themes ) that were added to CodeLite's default themes (in order of appearance):
- Retta
- GEdit Original Oblivion
- Monokai
MemCheck plugin ( valgrind )
Thanks to Michal B and his students, codelite now has a very good valgrind support:
- Run valgrind directly from within codelite and display the output in a tabular form, with an easy navigation
- Mange suppression files to avoid false positives
- See the errors directly in codelite IDE
