Cross Platform Development with the Ecere SDK (Article); eC/Ecere IRC Seminar Today (Friday) August 10th, ~1pm EDT

Hi all!


It's been about 5 months since the release of the Ecere SDK 0.44 "Ryoanji", and here's a little update of what's been going on, and a special invitation to an online seminar later today.

Cross Platform Development with the Ecere SDK

First, please find <at>  http://ecere.com/SDKIntro.pdf the introductory article that was featured in the Software Developer's Journal (http://sdjournal.org/) back in April or so.

IRC Seminar Fridays 1pm EDT (today)

I am planning to host a small (~1 hour) seminar on IRC later today (1pm EDT, Eastern Daylight Time (New York)), during which we'll go together over the content of this article (The basics of eC, building GUI applications and drawing graphics with Ecere). The goal will be to get you started writing GUI applications in eC with the Ecere SDK, and I'll take the time to answer all your questions.

I invite you all to join us in #ecere on irc.freenode.net (You can use a web chat application, e.g. http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=ecere or your favorite IRC client , e.g. mIRC <at> http://www.mirc.com on Windows)

If there is enough interest, I might repeat the experience on a weekly basis, and we can cover different topic. You guys could provide suggestions for topics to cover as well.
If you can't make it today, please mention whether you'd be interested in future similar events.

Development Update

As for the SDK development, I've been rather busy with other things, but also with the SDK.

0.44 has proven to be quite stable, although we've already found and fixed a number of bugs.

For those who follow us on GitHub (https://github.com/ecere/sdk)...

We've moved our development to the dev ( https://github.com/ecere/sdk/tree/dev ) branch these past few months, as we've been making important changes, notably to the build system.
The new build system will have better support for building with different compilers. We'll likely merge back these changes to the master branch soon as it's becoming more stable.

We're hoping to jump onto Android support very soon, and looking into extending our team of contributors to get other things moving as well in parallel.


All the best,

Jerome

Ecere SDK v0.44 "Ryoan-ji" -- The first official Open Source Release of Ecere!

Dear friends, contributors and Ecere community members,

I have the great pleasure to announce that the official version 0.44 of Ecere, codenamed "Ryoan-ji", is now available. 
It is the first "official" Open Source release of Ecere (not a draft, or preview).


Our Ubuntu Linux PPA on Launchpad is at https://code.launchpad.net/~ecere-team/+archive/ppa

To add our Ecere PPA to your Ubuntu system you can simply do:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ecere-team/ppa sudo apt-get update
And then to install the Ecere SDK:
sudo apt-get install ecere-sdk

The source tarball for the Ecere SDK 0.44 is at http://github.com/ecere/sdk/tarball/0.44

It took us some time and great efforts to get there, but we now have what should be a stable and complete release.
A quick history of what happened since 0.43 (September 2008):
  • In December 2008, we had released a first open-source draft, 0.44 draft 1, which could bootstrap itself from GCC.
  • In March 2010, we released 0.44 preview 1, with some new features, bug fixes, and new bugs. We also got a new website design, with new phpBB forums. 
  • In May 2010, we adopted Git as our version control system. Our source repository is hosted on GitHub at http://github.com/ecere/sdk
Both 0.44d1 and 0.44pre1 had some issues, and were lacking a Windows installer and proper Ubuntu PPAs.

Now all this is fixed, and it should be a breeze to get the Ecere SDK installed on your system in no time at all, to try out all the cool samples and features!

What's new in this version:
  • Native Window decorations, toolbar and tool tips
  • A new JSON-based .epj project format and powerful project settings, with powerful per File X Config X Platform Project Settings
  • Internationalization support, with Chinese and Spanish available by setting the LANGUAGE environment variable to zh_CN or es_ES
  • SQLite and Oracle drivers for Ecere Data Access (EDA)
  • Improved eC Distributed Objects
  • Less memory leaking on parsing code
  • Line Numbers in the Code Editor
  • Settings for multiple compilers (e.g. allowing to set up cross-compilers, different GCC versions...)
  • Support for ccache and distcc to speed up your builds
  • New Credits and License dialogs for the About box
  • A bunch of new samples, PowerPoint Tutorials and extras (SSLSocket, Audio, WIA Scanning...)
  • Coursework to accompany the Tao
  • A new updated Windows installer, with MinGW (GCC 4.4.0 and GDB 7.0 were selected for working best)
  • PPAs for Ubuntu working on both 32 and 64 bit machines, for Lucid Lynx, Maverick Meerkat, Natty Narwhal, Oneiric Ocelot and Precise Pangolin
  • Numerous tracked issues were resolved, see the complete list at: http://ecere.com/mantis/changelog_page.php
A much needed README was added to the source tree, you can read it online at http://github.com/ecere/sdk#readme

For those of you who do not yet have an account on the forums, and wish to register, please let me know of your user name for activation, because I unfortunately cannot distinguish spammers from real users.

Now that internationalization support is complete, I would like to invite you all to contribute a translation of Ecere in your native language.
You can use the nice collaborative interface on Launchpad for this purpose, at http://translations.launchpad.net/ecere

An article I wrote on Cross-Platform Development with the Ecere SDK will be featured in this month's issue of the Software Developer's Journal - http://en.sdjournal.org/ .
It should come out within the next week, I invite you to check it out. It's an excellent introduction to coding in eC with the Ecere SDK!

For an overview of what lies ahead for Ecere, you can take a peek at http://launchpad.net/ecere/+milestones
We will now focus on deploying Ecere applications on the Android platform.

All the best,

Jerome

Apologies if you get this e-mail twice. The eC mailing list is not very active and not everyone is on it ;)

New pre-release 0.44pre1

Hey guys,

Just a short note that a new pre-release of the Ecere SDK 0.44 is
available for download.

Some new stuff: builds on 64 bit Linux (as 32 bit), new .epj project
file format with more flexibility for per file/config/platform
options, the IDE generates cross-platform makefiles, updated, added
and reorganized samples, and many bug fixes and improvements in the
compiler and throughout the SDK.

There is still quite a bit of work left to do on our way to 0.44.
Mainly bug fixes, compiler optimizations, and we also hope to improve
the overall look and feel of the IDE. I hope you enjoy this pre-
release in the mean time.

I invite you to join the new forums, which are now based on phpBB3 and
should feel a lot more familiar.
I've organized the forums into nice sections associated with the
diverse features of the SDK. Feel free to ask for help there and we
will all do our best to help out each other, hopefully building up the
available Ecere SDK documentation in the process.

All the best,

Jerome

Recent Changes


Lots of pending modifications since 0.44draft1 have been merged into
the repository (too many to enumerate all of them!), paving the way
for the forthcoming 0.44 release.  A second draft version (0.44draft2)
is expected within a week.  Several important changes are already
active in the repository:

Core eC:
——–

* Class: ’size’ member of the main class Class has been separated into
typeSize and structSize which should result in simpler code
(especially in templates) in addition to being a lot easier to deal
with.
* Map: the Map container is being the focus of a stress test, both in
terms of performance evaluation and consistency.

Drivers:
——–

* X11: a major CPU bottleneck that occured during the initialization
of the IDE, making bitmaps to be loaded as if they contained
transparency information, is now fixed.

Tools:
——

* Builds: everything has been rebuilt and tested, with positive
reports on recently supported architectures like PowerPC.
* Documentor: API documentation has seen a lot of recent updates which
are tightly integrated in the IDE/Documentor for easy access.

* COM: some changes related to the class finder introduced
regressions, and have been backed off for the time being.
* IDE: improvements enabled the builder process to run slighthly
faster while using less CPU.

Ecere Corp. would like to thank all contributors and supporters of
Ecere SDK, (alphabetically) Charlie, Jérôme, Joey, and Redj.
