BexIDE -- An Axe/(Extended) BASIC Mini-IDE

[BlakPilar]

Yeah, they will be coming hopefully in the next release. There are just so many lol

[epic7]

Do the tokens need to be on that list to work?

[BlakPilar]

To be parsed properly as bytes, yes. Otherwise the text will literally be parsed ("USELESS" would be parsed as "U" + "S" + "E" + ...).

@alberthrocks, I personally don't use Linux, but I would love if someone could port this with Mono or something

I can tell, since you posted beautiful Windows (7? Vista?) screenshots of your program.

Anyway, I will need all of your help to make this work - even though Mono can run raw .NET exes (and is supposed to!), there are a few issues I'm sensing:
1) .NET 4 is a relatively new version of .NET, and Mono may not support all of its new features.
2) It may be likely (due to the reason above) that certain portions must be ported to the Mono equivalents. I will need help with determining what you use.
3) I have no knowledge whatsoever of C#! (Assuming you wrote it in that language) You know your code best! (My C/C++ skills won't help here!)

Yeah, I use Windows 7 on my laptop, and Vista on my desktop. I'll try to address your concerns in order:
1) I can recompile the solution under 3.0 or 3.5; whichever the most common form of Mono is equivalent to. I'm not entirely sure, though, if that will work when I implement the .NET portion because I tried making the project .NET 3.5 after someone told me that that would be better for Mono, but I got an error saying Microsoft.CSharp was not compatible (which contains methods for compiling C# code; I'd also assume there would be a similar error for Microsoft.VisualBasic).
2) I don't imagine that would be hard. I mainly only use the WinForms designers and the 8XP library as of now.
3) (See question/comment below)

Now that I think about it... If I were to get Mono for Windows, could I compile it to target Linux/OS X?

Poor me is still using Windows XP and superslow Vista... *sigh* But grateful me also uses Linux Mint!

Yeah, there are some assemblies that simply won't work in Mono due to non-implementation.
I would like to you keep your current code, unmodified - there *are* advantages to having native code.
However, you can "fork" off the code and work with that for Mono development.
See below for some more info about this....

2) I don't imagine that would be hard. I mainly only use the WinForms designers and the 8XP library as of now.

WinForms, eh? It is indeed supported on Mono, but it... well, looks like Windows on Linux. If you would like to provide a more "native" experience, you would need to port it to GTK+ (.NET). For the 8XP library, if it uses anything exotic, then it will also require a (hopefully minor?) port.

Now that I think about it... If I were to get Mono for Windows, could I compile it to target Linux/OS X?

Ahh, and that's the other way.
Mono does NOT interfere with your current .NET installation - it simply acts like a wrapper if you decide to use it to run your .NET programs with it.

If you develop for Mono, the .NET executable will work for ALL platforms that support it! HOWEVER, if you are looking for a standalone, no-need-for-.NET executable, then you are limited to Windows only. On Windows, the standalone build is rather complex (it requires a nasty mix of Cygwin and MinGW to perform the build, since we are doing actual static linking - raw code - for making the standalone build). This is called making a bundle (mkbundle). I am working on a script to automate the creation of the standalone build environment. You might make me finish it once and for all!

Note that this mkbundle frenzy is not as crazy on Linux or Mac - you just need to install the compiler and presto, it will work. I will handle the Linux side for you, since it's pretty direct for me (and you don't have to install Linux ).

As I've mentioned above, WinForms is supported, but it looks like Windows on Linux/Mac. If you want to, you can port it to GTK+ .NET (included with Mono on Windows, I think), but remember that the two can be vastly different.

Finally - if you want to take that leap, I strongly suggest grabbing the Mono Migration Analyzer tool (MoMA), found here: http://www.mono-project.com/MoMA

It's very, very useful in determining what is incompatible for the transition from .NET to Mono.

Anyway, I hope this helps!

[BlakPilar]

Hmm... I'll install everything, play around with it, and get back to you on that (sometime, hopefully, soon)! Thanks!

[BlakPilar]

Just a little informative before the next release: parsing "extra" tokens (the third-party library ones as well as custom ones) now works regardless of byte length. ^^

[epic7]

I think the sprite editor needs the ability for the user to type in hex and have it be shown on the editor.

[alberthrocks]

So I've finally gotten to test it in Linux - and it *might* actually work out of the box!
However, we still have bugs to fix!

When opening, I get this error:

If this image isn't visible:
************************************************************

Also, this came out of the console after this error was closed (probably didn't exit from this error?):

Hope this helps!

EDIT: Ick, I'm not a fan of the code boxes sans monospaced font Edited to use the tt tags instead.

Just going to give you a bug report:
1) When you open files already made, the syntax is all green except for strings (which are red)
2) When you invert a sprite, it doesn't invert the hex, it just inverts the table on the program
For Example: Say you had a circle sprite, and you just filled in the black corners and inverted it.
The diagram would look like this:
11000011
10000001
00000000
00000000
00000000
00000000
10000001
11000011
The 0's are white, the 1's are black. Then I click the invert button. The 1's would be replaced with 0's, but the hex, which should be 3C7EFFFFFFFF7E3C, is still this: C3810000000081C3

Other than those things, I haven't found anything yet!

[epic7]

Hey, I was about to say that!
Everything is green, yes.

However, if I change it, then revert it, it goes to the correct color. For example,
24->{L5+14} is green.
I change it to
25->{L5+14
then back to
24->{L5+14}

And its in black instead of green, like it was before.

I think the sprite editor needs the ability for the user to type in hex and have it be shown on the editor.

Alrighty, can do! Shan't be hard.

The 0's are white, the 1's are black. Then I click the invert button. The 1's would be replaced with 0's, but the hex, which should be 3C7EFFFFFFFF7E3C, is still this: C3810000000081C3

Other than those things, I haven't found anything yet!

1) That's a glitch in either the editor I'm using, the way I'm handling the RegEx, or the way I tell the editor to handle the RegEx. I'm thinking of moving over to ICSharpCode's editor. (@epic, it does that because it only changes highlighting for  what it deems as the changed area.)
2) It changes the sprite in memory, but I guess when you invert it I'm just not updating the displayed hex value. Thanks, though! I'll fix that.

@alberthrocks woo! Well, somewhat lol. I'm going to guess Linux only accepts the forward-slash, and not the back-slash, for file path's? I believe it doesn't matter for Windows, so if the different slashes are the problem, that's an easy fix That might be why it can't find the settings file (because Application.StartupPath seems to be working fine). The other errors seem to be from the editor (it's called FastColoredTextBox). If I switch over to ICSharpCode's editor by adding the entire project, maybe that'll help fix it? (It is written in C# as well.)

EDIT: Thanks a lot guys, seriously. This means a lot to me

I think the sprite editor needs the ability for the user to type in hex and have it be shown on the editor.

Alrighty, can do! Shan't be hard.

Cool! Right now I'm typing the hex in, storing it to Str1, converting it using a slow basic program, copying the 8x8 pic into the bex hex editor and then editing using that which is very tedious

Oh gosh that would get quite tiresome lol. Maybe, just maybe, if/when this becomes more of an actual IDE, I could have a window next to the editor that if you're on a line with a sprite declaration on it, it would render that sprite...
