Hey guys,

I would just like to share with you that I released a prototype of my Blitzer IDE Project. This is an alpha demo only, not fully functional but basic editor features are already in place.

- Syntax Hilighting
- Similar menu options with default Blitz Editor
- Common Blitz installation or directory structure
- Future plugin support

not tried it but it looks good, do you have plans to support intelli and al that good stuff?

Looking good! Bit of a long shot - do you plan to make an Android Lite version?


Raster Ron(Posted 2015) [#4]
Hey, thanks guys :)

@coffeedotbean

Yes, I'm planning to add an intellisense or autocomplete feature on future versions.

@Blitzplotter

It's Qt so it is possible, but of course only the IDE in this case. It is a bit of a long shot so I guess the priority at the moment would be for Windows only. As for Blitzmax support (Win/Mac/Linux), it is still in the works and I'm planning to create a separate version, plugin or just configuration to adapt to BMax menus/options.

cheers.

I know this is a weird place to ask this, but how exactly does the licensing for QT work? Do you have to distribute your object file or something weird?


Brucey(Posted 2015) [#6]
QT is LGPL these days, so you are free to include the dlls and do with your app as you want.

I get an error when I try to run it that says 'This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "windows".'

Hey Chapman7

Thanks for reporting this issue. It seems that it's just a missing plugin file that I forgot to include. Just download the Qt platform plugin here and place the platforms folder inside the installation path. ie:

Blitzer.exe
...
platforms/qwindow.dll

also updated the full package.

Good Day
