Hi,
I have been working with The CodeMax\CodeSense Code Editor Control.
It seams like I have been able to translate 99% of the C++ Declaration (with good help from fellow forum users).

This is a POWERFUL Control
It supports tons of functionalities, here is a few:
Color Syntax
Line Numbering
Split Code Windows
Code Completion
Function Highlighting
Line Highlighting
Bookmarks (brake marks, etc)
++
In all respect for the great IDE included in PB, do I still feel it missing some "Nice to have" features.

So I'm asking how the interest here is for all or some of these functionalities.
If so, is anyone interest in to help out with a new IDE?
What else should be included?
Or even better, could we continue on the existing Editor (Much of the editor code need to be replaces since it's based on RTF format.)
I'm open for any suggestions.

Here is a link to the CodeMax\CodeSense Web Site.

Se below for a few pictures of the control.

Looks very good! I would support this IDE if it had all those features you mentioned and are pictured in the screenshots, as well as a very high level of customizability.

Could be cool to have it in PB IDE.

I use codemax in my first Visual IDE and its great, its comes in two flavors: as Activex and as dll, i used the ActiveX.

If Fred use CodeMax in the PB Ide this could be a very important step because it rocks!!!

Of course for the PB IDE they will use, if Fred decide to, the dll version.
Whats the problem with that?
CodeMax is used extensively in the software industry, its very complete, easy to use, small, fast and free!!

BTW, the version that i use of CodeMax was not so complete, dont have Intellisense per example and i have to do it by myself. This one is very complete now, its a MUST for an editor.

Hi,

If Fred and the "IDE" guy's will use CodeMax that's great!
But that must be their dession.

In the mean time I'm working on a "Prototype" MDI Editor and I'm using CodeMax the native dll version.
The main different is that I'm often working with several projects, so each project will have it's own MDI Child window, the child window it self will look more or less like the one we using today (Tab pages with .pb files).

When I have something useful to show, then I will post the source code.
Hopefully some of you can use the code or part of it anyway.

I did a search on Google for codemax, and it seems that versions earlier than 3.0 are free (correct me if I'm wrong), but don't have syntax highlighting and some of the other features we're wanting.

3.0 has these features, but costs $199! Or $399 with the source code...

jaPBe (just another PB editor), however, *IS* free and seems to be a step in this direction. Do a search in this forum for jaPBe and you'll find the link to download it. It's quite good, actually! Don't forget to get the other files that go with it too (you'll see them on the same download page).

ah, the digging fun

I knew about the new version of CodeMax, I have a few older versions of the bugger. I have an editor in VB that I want to convert over to PB, that uses this. I was thinking of using that sc thingie majigger that jaPBe uses, however the only library that uses that bugger is currently only for Linux w/ the author not willing to do a Windows port for ages. So ..

But anyways, Im still looking for includes/header files for interfacing CodeMax with PB, Anybody have any?

Hey Shannara, I just noticed that your post is almost exactly one year behind mine!

Personnally, I wanted to use Scintilla for my own IDE, but i didn't win. So i looked for many code source edition controls like Scintilla. there are a few :
-Scintilla
-RaEdit
-CodeMAx,

I just found this three there !
