I'm not completly sure if it's proper to ask this here, but...
I'm a student forced to work with Code:Blocks IDE on Win7 (64 bits), and it keeps crashing everytime I try and add/edit an #include, I've tried in both C and C++ and I think it's got to do with the editor since it compiles correctly.
Has anybody else had this problem? Is there any way to fix it?
Best bet would be to search through the Code::Blocks ticketing system to see if anyone knows about the problem.
If no-one does, then raise a ticket yourself.
It'd also be a good idea to provide as much information there up front as possible, such as the source files (or enough of them to cause the actual problem), project settings, IDE version, and so on.
That'll get your ticket moving along faster than if they have to chase you for the information.

I am kinda of a new user here and don't have enough reputation points to comment/ask on this question: IDE support for Hack Lang.
So, I am hoping that since the last entry provided by Themis Beris someone has been able to get PHPStorm working properly with Hack. I followed the 3 steps described in the post I mentioned, but still get compile-time errors on the classes I've written using Hack. <?hh is not recognized, for instance.
Any suggestions as to how to get PHPStorm playing nice with Hack?
I have no idea what Themis Beris is talking about on the linked question. (He seems to be saying something about PHPUnit, which is a completely separate issue.)
JetBrains has a feature request open for Hack support and last I heard was very actively working on it. But as of this writing (Feb 2015) it's not released yet.
I have downloaded multiple OCaml IDE's / plugins and NONE of them work. I have no clue if I have a directory problem or if something else is at fault. I can access the OCaml console through cygwin just fine but it is not very useful for dealing with larger files. I am a total OCaml noob and have no clue how to fix my problems. I have been reading every post on OCaml here and nothing is helping. I am hoping that somebody can help me because this is very frustrating! Thanks to all who reply.
OCaml modes for Emacs and Vim work perfectly (and they run on MacOS and Windows, of course). I heard Geany works well as well.
I'm not saying everyone must learn Emacs and Vim; I understand that it's a kind of interface that beginners maybe don't want to get into -- and supporting other editors well for OCaml is a problem that we need to fix. But if you want reasonable support for pretty much every kind of text format out there, they're still good choices.
Finally, if you have a decent terminal / command-line (if you are on Windows that might require running a GNU/Linux virtual machine), pretty much every editor will be fine if you compile stuff by hand from the terminal (which is not particularly hard). In-Editor support will still provide you with a better experience, in particular allowing to jump right to the place in your code where the compiler says there is an error, but as a beginner you can go a long way without even that.
PS: it would be extremely useful if you took the time to spell out precisely what your problem with each tool was, and send that information to the respective maintainers. I think the main problem with these tools is the lack of testers. Help the future people that will try these tools by helping the maintainers fix them!
I'v recently looked at OcaIDE for eclipse - and it seems to work.
You need perhaps set some configuration variables (paths to ocaml compiler,...), but I don't remember any quirks.
I would like to thank everybody for their help. I finally found some installation instructions for the tuareg mode in EMACS. In case anybody else is having the same problem that I was there are VERY clear instructions here
How to install tuareg
Hopefully I can now translate some stuff into OCaml that I have been working on in other languages and post some of my projects. Thanks again for all of the help.
You can use Notepad++ for Windows. It is more intuitive for than Vim or Emacs for the beginners. And it has a syntax highlighting for Caml and you can assign hotkeys for compiling executing the program.
I would suggest using OcaIDE. I've done some fairly large projects with it, and it's not bad. Emacs (with Tuareg mode) is also a good option. If you're having trouble with setup, I wrote a guide for OS X: http://www.princeton.edu/~crmarsh/ocaml_dev_environment/
So i have been having the hardest time getting my iphone application approved. And i sorta when on a little rampage through some of my code.
In my shear stupidity I thought that maybe I did not need the SenTestingKit.framework. So i attempted to remove it from my program, and when asked if i would like to delete or remove references i accidently clicked delete.
However upon reviewing some crash logs PRE-Deletion of SenTestingKit.framework I found the following...
Again this error was before I deleted the framework. The crash code to this is 0xe7ffdefe
Could someone please tell me where i might get the sentestingkit.framework from? And also if you have anyidea why it is causing the crash that would be so amazing to hear.
Thanks!!!
To restore that framework, just re-install Xcode. Or maybe your trash still has it.
About the iOS devices that complain about not finding the SenTestkingKit: I'd assume so, as it's a Xcode-only framework used for test cases. You aren't supposed to link it when distributing the app. Why would the user want to run test cases?
I'm trying to run a program written by someone else in LabVIEW. The program records voltage. However it won't open because it is missing subVIs.
Initially I thought that only one was missing and the rest weren't working becuase they were attached to it but after someone on this forum kindly found it for me the rest of the VIs still won't work so I think I need to download them again. However there are too many off them to get separately, also I tried googling them to no avail.
The subVIs are : Magnet Id, Hardware check, Plot Data and Print, Make Plot Lables, Plot it, Relabel It, Write File header, Record Analog Info, Fix Column Heading, Make Igor Label etc etc (this is not a complete list).
I feel that I should download a DAQ from The National Instruments Website but I am not sure which one. I am using 64 bit LabVIEW 2010 on Windows. Can someone please help me pick out the correct driver?
Thanks!
Just going from memory, those aren't NI VIs that I recognize, especially if the misspellings are in the original.
What hardware is this interfacing with?
You should still be able to open the main VI. It will not compile or run, since the subVIs are missing, but you should be able to open it and maybe get some clues about what it's doing.
The SubVIs all appear to be in the llb file so they should be available. I'm not sure how you can access the subVIs directly from the llb file so you may want to convert this to a project folder (this is the new way of creating libraries since version 8 I think). There are some pages on the NI website that may help, try Converting an LLB to a Project Library and then add this Project Library to your project.
From what I can see the VIs make use of the VISA drivers to communicate with the individual instruments so you should make sure you have this installed. You don't mention what version of LabVIEW 2010 you have but I think they should be provided even the Basic version, I know they are provided with the Professional Development System version.
I think Xcode is a good IDE, but having used Eclipse for Java development in the past I am quite underwhelmed by XCode's code completion and error/warning feedback. (Most of the time, XCode seems to simply try to match the beginning of a text fragment to "words" in the same document, without even using type information to try to determine the appropriateness of a suggested completion.)
Does anyone have ideas or tricks to make XCode approach Eclipse's cleverness, or to realistically develop Cocoa apps with other IDE:s than XCode?
EDIT: Worth keeping an eye on this: code.google.com/p/objectiveclipse/
The good news is, Apple’s working on the problem. One of the goals of the clang compiler project is to create a reusable parser which can be used for better code completion and refactoring support. Indications are that this has borne fruit in the latest Snow Leopard seeds.
Quite simply: no.
You can do almost everything by hand using your favorite text editor but it's not at all recommended. Try designing interfaces without Interface Builder for example.
My advice would be to just stick with Xcode and learn its way of doing things. Yes, it will be different and sometimes might not be "better" in your Eclipsed eyes. Console yourself in the fact that Apple's managed to release some great products using Xcode.
My personal experience is that, each time I use Xcode, I find a new trick which I can add to my bag. Xcode is far more full-featured than what you might think at first (or second) glance.
I've long voiced my rants about what's wrong with Xcode (and what's not wrong with Xcode). But you really don't want to use another tool. And without breaking NDA: Xcode 3.2 with SnowLeopard: Hooray. (Compared to what we have; not compared to what we might want.)
That said, to your original question about code completion, I personally turn off auto-completion in favor of on-demand completion. I find it far more useful and less distracting. In the Code Sense panel, set "Automatically Suggest" to "Never" and make sure the other two options are selected ("Show arguments in pop-up list" and "Insert argument placeholders...") This will do completion in a pop-up box when you hit Escape, making it easy to scroll through looking for what you want. I find that I have to type a lot less this way, especially for methods that are not unique for many characters. 80% of the time, it's highlighting the right thing already.
I have certainly felt your pain — as an experienced Java developer and frequent Eclipse user, I've wished for the same features myself. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of anything that fits the bill. I don't think there was any satisfactory resolution to this SO question, either.
However, I think you'll be quite happy with the improvements to Xcode code completion coming in Snow Leopard — it's vastly smarter about filtering the list of possible completions. Also, there are new conveniences for coding, such as inserting a starting bracket when you forgot one, etc. To my knowledge, there is still no predictive compiling like Eclipse, though.
Is anyone aware of an IDE other than Eclipse that supports predictive compiling and warning/error reporting? Does Eclipse itself support the feature for languages other than Java, such as C++? I'm led to wonder whether the fact that Java is built with independent .java files rather than .h and .c/.cpp/.m files makes it simpler to predictively compile. Also, anything compiled with gcc requires a little more care and attention than the comparatively simpler javac command. Any thoughts?
Check out JetBrains' new IDE called "App Code". It's still in the Early Access Program, but even with the Early Access bugs it is hands-down better than xcode 4.

emacs and/or vim
Xcode does have some context awareness, when you are sending a message to an object it will generally have the "ESC" list pull up meaningful arguments.
One thing I strongly recommend is looking into text macros. These are not really type aware, but they can save a ton of typing - for instance, after #implementation type "init" and then hit control-. (period) to activate the text macro. It will fill out a whole init method for you. You can create your own, or override the existing macros.
