Has the memory footprint issue been fixed or does it still behave like before?

Sam Bacsa   (Aug 15, 2005 at 11:29 GMT)

@Stefan: It's improved a lot due to me running extra garbage-collection calls and doing a number of other stuff, but it's not solved completely. That seems to be the fault of the actual text editor control which the developers are fixing in the next release.

By the time you start feeling the load on your memory, your file would have grown to tens of thousands of lines (really, over 30,000 was my count), so it's not really too much of an issue.

Looks like its coming right along, Sam. :) Nice work.

You've built a really great editor. Its very helpful, you ever think about adding in C++ Support?

Sam Bacsa   (Aug 15, 2005 at 14:03 GMT)

@Timberlake: Unfortunately, TorqueDev is tailored specifically for TorqueScript. It's not a multi-language programming environment. Adding support for anything but TorqueScript is not going to happen.

The Debug menu item is grayed out for my T2D project. Is this expected? Can you debug T2D projects?

Sam Bacsa   (Aug 15, 2005 at 23:53 GMT)

@Mark: The welcome screen has a brief readme on how to get debugging to work. You obviously didn't read it ;)

If you navigate to your TorqueDev directory, you'll see a file called "_tempfirstrun.html". You can open that in a web browser. Please read that thoroughly -- it explains how to enable debugging plus use a lot of the features.

http://torque.netmercs.net/forum/index.php/topic,7.0.html has some step-by-step information as well.

Well maybe if you had a welcome screen that said to read the welcome screen then I might read it :-)

I'll go do that now. Sorry.

Sam Bacsa   (Aug 16, 2005 at 00:42 GMT)

@Mark: Haha no worries. I had forgotten to place a "please read this thoroughly before continuing"... silly me. I will probably in the next release when the plugin architecture goes out of beta. :)

Working nicely Sam.. Thanks for the editor settings tab in the preferences. Oh, and the find-in-project has a bug that seems to occur when you try to find with the find tab already open. But otherwise -- awesome!

@Brett: It's been confirmed and pending fix. Thanks for reporting it :)

@Sam:

Thanks for your response. I can tell you that I do not have 30,000 lines, but I still feel the problem and the system runs slowly.
I'll upgrade to the newest one though, it looks very nice.

When the developers of the SDK that you're using, updates.. will you update too?

Edit: Works perfectly Sam! I feel no performance degrade at all now. Thanks alot

@Stefan: That's great to hear :)

Although there is still a (small) memory issue with extremely large files (over 3 megs ... and if you have scripts that big, HOLY CRAP), it is pending fixing in the next release of the syntax editor control, which I will deploy as soon as it's released.
