CoronaComplete - IDE, Visual Debugger, Project Manager

Realy cool editor! Very impressive!

But some things very needed:

folding of functions - very much needed in work with long code,
autosave when run simulator - just necessary (if I afraid random changes I shall make backup by my self)
separate ‘files’ and ‘errors’ on different panels - switching between them is very confuse now,
shortcut for run simulator,
one shortcut key to close simulator (“Esc” for example) - should be very usefull.

Yes it’s a very nice editor. I’m glad I scooped it up! I’d like to see multiple computer support soon! My laptop is missing all the fun. [import]uid: 54776 topic_id: 23144 reply_id: 98239[/import]

Hello everybody,

Just to give you an update. Now CoronaComplete can be run on 2 computers at the same time.
All licenses have been extended to support 2 computers. [import]uid: 38119 topic_id: 23144 reply_id: 99146[/import]

Hi, I just pickup a license for corona complete. Awesome product.

I’m just wondering, It would be great if you have a button to comment / uncomment selected lines.
and also to open multiple projects along with a tabbed file display.

Regards,

funedge01 · April 18, 2012, 11:05am

Hi all, sorry I take back the comment / uncomment button

For everybody to know Command - / is the shortcut to comment,uncomment code

Just bought Corona Complete. I love all the stuff Vladu does

Suggestions:
functions view
Ability to set in preferences the number of spaces inserted when TAB is hit.

Thanks for such a great editor! [import]uid: 10389 topic_id: 23144 reply_id: 102357[/import]

vladu.bogdan · April 20, 2012, 10:25pm

Thanks! I have a long list of things to add. Function view is one of them. I promise to add all, but right now im full with the public beta of levelhelper and spritehelper. [import]uid: 38119 topic_id: 23144 reply_id: 102372[/import]

Hi,

I purchased a copy today. Some things I like to mention:

I couldn’t find a list of short cuts (for “step over” etc …)
the debugger buttons only work on the black signs, so I have to aim with my curser to trigger them.
The animated yellow highlight is a bit annoying if you have a larger amount of code to debug step by step. Maybe you can add a possibility to change it to a unanimated gray one in preferences.

And one bug probably:
First I had to change some paths to png assets. The first “save all” brought no change. The png was still not found, although the path was fixed. I had to restart CC to fix it. Same bug repeated several times.

Thanks anyway for this nice App.

Just an addition:

The save issue seems definitely to ba a bug. If I make a change, I always have to close CC and open it again after saving. Otherwise the changes have no effekt.

Another thing is, that the indices are not correct aligned with the code, and if I set a breakpoint, it sometimes has no visual effekt. I have to restart CC to fix it.

And if I trigger the next step in debug mode, the marker does not always jump to the next line as it should. [import]uid: 53732 topic_id: 23144 reply_id: 104011[/import]

vladu.bogdan · April 30, 2012, 9:20am

Hey, thanks for the notice.
I can’t reproduce this save not taking effect behavior but i will investigate it asap as i don’t like bugs and unhappy customers.

What do you mean by indices? [import]uid: 38119 topic_id: 23144 reply_id: 104025[/import]

sunmils · April 30, 2012, 11:37am

I mean the line numbers. sorry, english is not my first language. And thanks for investigate. [import]uid: 53732 topic_id: 23144 reply_id: 104044[/import]

jeromehollon · April 30, 2012, 7:25pm

Is there expected to be a windows or linux release? [import]uid: 144499 topic_id: 23144 reply_id: 104119[/import]

vladu.bogdan · April 30, 2012, 10:56pm

sunmils thanks for clarifying

jeromejollon, sorry but no, i don’t think so. When i create an app, i write it native code in order to make it as stable and to run as fast as possible.

All my apps are pure objective C using Cocoa.

Hi Bogdan,

i have one more bug for you :

If I define an image, and remove it later in debug modus, i receive an corona error that the image is aready removed.

[lua]local myImage = display.newImage( “test.png”, 50, 50 )
myImage:removeSelf() – error [/lua]

This is only in debug modus.

vladu.bogdan · May 1, 2012, 2:16am

Hey

This is not a cc bug but a corona bug. Cc does nothing in terms of running in debug or not . I just launch corona in terminal and interpret the output. But the output is given by corona.

sunmils · May 1, 2012, 2:36am

ok, so I hope ansca will fix this soon.

Are there short-cuts for “step-over” and “step-into” ?

thanks [import]uid: 53732 topic_id: 23144 reply_id: 104184[/import]

vladu.bogdan · May 1, 2012, 9:26pm

No, not yet, but i will add them and post an update soon

I suggest

Continue - Command-Shift-C
Step Into F7
Step Over F6 [import]uid: 38119 topic_id: 23144 reply_id: 104339[/import]

Downloaded the Trial versions for Cider and Complete last night. Installed on OSX Lion.
Cider Complete
Installation Size 165.9MB 7.7MB
Memory used 197.1MB 81.4MB

I personally like the fact that CoronaComplete uses less space and memory on my computer. I also appreciate that Complete does not create hidden files nor inserts code into my files like Cider does.

I have a couple of issues with Complete which are listed below. These issues are sort of deal breakers for me so I’m hoping they will be fixed soon. Hopefully before my trial expires.

Issues:

Save All button does not remove the “M” indicator on an updated file.
Debugger does not always launch simulater. Stops at Open Project dialog.
Breakpoint line is highlighted then unhighlighted.
Variables can only be inspected when stopped at breakpoint.
Can only inspect one variable at a time.
Changing editor background and text color requires app restart.
Deleting files and folders are recreated when running simulator.
Tab spaces not customizable.
Auto-completion fails with “if (x == nil) then” [import]uid: 9042 topic_id: 23144 reply_id: 105573[/import]
