Normally we enable these on application launch when we receive an ‘application did become active’ notification, for tests though, this notification is lacking, but we do want it enabled for tests, and while we could do a constructor in the tests to enable it, it seems better to just enable it by default.
One issue is that if TextMate is launched “in the background” then it will still do SCM status gathering. Though long-term I may actually want to always have it enabled, even when TextMate is not active.
The motivation for introducing a new test generator is that CxxTest cannot be used with tests that (indirectly) schedule code to run in the main queue.
There are a few other advantages of breaking with CxxTest:
1. Less boilerplate: A test file need only contain a
function named with a ‘test_’ prefix. No classes,
inheritance, or similar. If you need fixtures, use the
multitude of ways that C/C++ allows that (constructor
functions or non-POD types with static storage).
2. Concurrent tests: Test functions are scheduled with
‘dispatch_apply’ and will thus run concurrently. If
you need serial execution you can wrap your tests in a
block and schedule that to run in the main queue.
Though you should catch exceptions and re-throw these
in the test’s original queue, as the test assertions
are using exceptions.
3. Easier output of custom types: The assertion macros
will call ‘to_s’ on the arguments given, so the only
thing required to make these output nicely is to
provide a ‘to_s’ overload for your custom type /
enumeration. I know that the standard way to do this
is overloading operator<< for a stream, but the
TextMate code-base already uses the ‘to_s’
convention.
Long-term I can see a few other advantages, like calling preprocessor on the input files to support #if/#else/#endif to disable tests, better support for Cocoa code (NSRunLoop), and introducing test timeouts.
By using the menu item’s indentation level property it is possible to “type to select” items, which previously would not work for items that had leading em-space as a prefix.
Closes#806.
Previously this appeared correct because once you clicked the minimum height of the pop-up menu set it to the correct height. Corrects an issue noted by @fatiotus in #728.
Previously we would only set the variable if the command couldn’t be found via PATH. By always setting the variable, we remove redundancy from commands, as they can now rely on the variable instead of needing fallback code (to load via PATH).
The downside is that there are cases where a command may wish to know if the user explicitly set the variable, for example the Run command for Python will ignore the script’s shebang if the user explicitly set TM_PYTHON. As this command doesn’t use the requirement system, it’s not an actual problem. Should it want to specify the requirement, it can do so by using a variable like TM_PYTHON_AUTO and then in the locations array, set TM_PYTHON, this would allow the command to test if TM_PYTHON is set and if not, still have ‘python’ available via the TM_PYTHON_AUTO variable — although, should python not be found, the error dialog will tell the user to set TM_PYTHON_AUTO.
Issue #767
This is enabled by adding the following to your theme:
colorSpaceName = sRGB;
The default color space used for themes is “Apple Generic RGB” which is a bad choice for interoperability with other software (e.g. exporting a theme to CSS, creating theme colors in Photoshop, and similar).
Related to issue #768.
These are expensive to create and it was noticeable when lots of files matched and the menu had to be created (as it would when the user press a potential menu key like ⌘W).
This is only when explicitly asking TextMate to indent the current line / selection.
Previously these lines would remain at their current indent, this is useful for preprocessor commands, but majority of ignored lines should use current indent. It might be useful to introduce a new pattern for “zero indent” lines.
This is important when we wish to select or edit the URL (in the file browser) as URLs with different values for this flag will not compare as equal, and URL objects created before there is a file on disk will always have this flag set to NO.
