From: Robert Hoehne Newsgroups: comp.os.msdos.djgpp Subject: New fixed version for RHIDE/RHGDB Date: Fri, 14 Feb 1997 10:43:51 +0100 Organization: TU Chemnitz-Zwickau Lines: 198 Message-ID: <330433D7.65D0@Mathematik.tu-chemnitz.de> NNTP-Posting-Host: errno.hrz.tu-chemnitz.de Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com DJ-Gateway: from newsgroup comp.os.msdos.djgpp I have placed today on my website a new fixed version of RHIDE and RHGDB. Both are called now version 1.1b. RHIDE is an Integrated Development Environment for DJGPP. It supports to build programs and/or libraries from C, C++ or GNU assembler sources. RHIDE is NOT a compiler and/or linker, it is "only" an userfriendly inteface for the use of the DJGPP compiling tools, that means, if you have problems when compilink and/or linking with some missing files or so on, please check at first, if you have installed DJGPP correct, which is described in the readme.1st file for DJGPP and read also the very good DJGPP FAQ (currently version 2.10) which can downloaded from the simtelnet mirrors in the DJGPP tree as v2/faq210b.zip. To avoid possible problems when compiling or linking, it is strongly recommended to install DJGPP 2.01 if you haven't done it already. If you haven't used RHIDE before, point your WEB browser to http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~rho/rhide.html to get more information about RHIDE. To use the fixed executables for RHIDE and RHGDB you have to install at first the archive rhide11b.zip, which can be found of course on my website and it is also available on simtelnet mirrors in the DJGPP tree in the subdirectory v2apps. The installation of rhide11b.zip before is needed, because this archive contain also the documentation and all the needed configuration files for RHIDE. If you have installed it, simply replace the files rhide.exe and rhgdb.exe with the new versions from my site. Most of the reported bugs are fixed (see the Changelog below) and some features are added. Important new features are in RHIDE the new syntax help. It is now customizable by the user to define the INFO-files to be scanned for syntax help and three different seach methods. All they are in the new submenu 'Help/Syntax help'. To tell RHIDE, which files to scan for syntax help, you have to type the space separated list of INFO files in the menu 'Help/Syntax help/File to search'. The filenames you give there can be with or without suffix. If you give there no suffix, all of the current known and valid suffixes for INFO files are tried. RHIDE supports also the use of compressed INFO files like it info.exe does. The bug report includes now some more information. PLEASE use that bug-report-feature to report bugs, even when you think it is not soo important. The bug report is selected from the menu (Alt+Space). I made no diffs now for the sources which were uploaded to simtelnet, because they are very hard to produce for me because of my limited disk space at home. If someone realy needs or wants them, please contact me. If you have found a bug or have a problem with RHIDE/RHGDB please use the bug-report-feature and post it to the newsgroup comp.os.msdos.djgpp or send the mail to djgpp AT delorie DOT com because you will get sometimes an better answer here than directly from me. But you can contact me of course also direct via email. If your problem is related to the editor of RHIDE, please send a copy of the report also to SET, the author of the editor: "Salvador Eduardo Tropea (SET)" Because I will not here at university for a week, please do not expect to get any answer from me until 24.02.1997.
