Developer Studio - Propeller Development Platform

Praxis

Developer Studio Lite - Production Release is ready for download.

Developer Studio is a Development System for Propeller Spin (using Homespun Compiler) & C software development.

Developer Studio is available in 2 versions
Developer Studio Lite & Developer Studio Professional
Both versions of Developer Studio come bundled with a Spin Compiler and a RAM/EEPROM Loader.

Developer Studio has been designed to be expandable with 'plug in" DLL modules such as terminal programs and debuggers etc.

The Lite release version includes Praxis' PropViewer Terminal program that is a Tab click away for easy use.
When programming the Propeller, PropViewer automatically disconnects/reconnects from the serial port for the programming duration.


Developer Studio Lite is not free software however it is free to use in any way that you wish with no restrictions.
All future releases of Developer Studio Lite will be under the same conditions.
Developer Studio Lite allows a maximum of 4 documents to opened at the same time (includes Plug In Tools)


Developer Studio Lite can be downloaded from www.praxis.com.my/downloads/DevStudioLite.zip

The DotNet 2.0 Framework MUST be installed prior to running the program.

**** If you already have Developer Studio RC3 Version installed then deinstall it. ****
RC3 project files will not work with the release version so a converter program is included to convert your RC3 projects.


To use Developer Studio Lite requires product activation, follow the on screen instructions.
If Developer Studio Lite is not activated it will run in evaluation mode where all functions work except document saving.


This download includes the installer, Propeller Loader, the HomeSpun compiler from Michael Park (mpark) and the project converter.

Please note: HomeSpun compiler is bundled with Developer Studio Lite as a matter of convenience and is not subject to the EULA of Developer Studio Lite.

Hi Praxis,

I haven't spent enough on it but it seems OK.
You have still the CRLF problem importing non windows originated documents (very boring)

BTW if I remember correctly there was also a GEAR plug-in planned: what's the time schedule on this ?

Will you release a plug-in SDK ??

Cheers

@dMajo: I actauly fixed that but commented the line where the cr to crlf conversion takes place for some reason.
Anyway it works with mac saved files by converting the cr to crlf while doing a read and saves out in crlf as well.
I will post an update later.

I have put the GEAR plugin on hold for a while becuase I am looking at doing a source level debugger based on the work of Clusso99.
Have some nice ideas for this such as when a break point is hit mouse hover over an in scope variable gives the value etc ala VS.

Just saw about the SDK, next week I will post the code (C# and VB) for a dummy plugin DLL that will allow you to create your own plugins.


@Sapieha: This one beats me. The development is on Vista machine and tested on XP-SP2 virtual machine. I will have to add SP3 to the VM but as the VM disk image is too small so I will have to create a new one (means installing XP + SP) so give me a few days.

Your problem is caused by the IDEcontrol which is the visual components for the GUI and that one beats me at the moment.

Cheers.

Hi Parxis

I also get the error that Sapieha posted. I am running WinXP SP2.

I did not uninstall the previous version before running the install.

Thanks

Dave

Praxis

I knew there was a reason I mentioned that the RC3 version MUST be uninstalled first.

Cheers Guys.

A minor Update adds "Moddified / Saved" line markers similar to VS.

See picture below.

I am pleasant you are back.

BTW where is the professional version?

Praxis

Developer Studio was developed to be a SPIN development platform to provide IDE support for the Homespun compiler from Michael Park as well as generic third party C compilers.

Since the release of the Catalina C compiler I will be upgrading Developer Studio to provide more integrated support for Catalina.

Very nice.

Keep working on it.

BTW: The GEAR plug-in seems still missing

Praxis

@dMajo

Sorry about the gear plugin as we have been up to eyeballs in work for the last several months.
As a large part of our business is releated to GPS securtiy products as the economies tank our business goes up.

I will see if I can get it out in the next few weeks.

Cheers
