CodeSnip v4.16.0 Released

-

As promised a few days ago CodeSnip v4.16.0 has just been released.

You can download it from GitHub or SourceForge.

This version removes all dependencies on delphidabbler.com and the web services it provides. The web services are due to cease operating sometime between 12th and 15th June 2020. delphidabbler.com will continue on a different server with reduced content and functionality.

For full details of changes see the change log.

The source code can be downloaded or cloned from the delphidabbler/codesnip Git repository on GitHUb.

IMPORTANT: All current users are strongly advised to update as soon as possible. Quite an important chunk of functionality in v4.15.1 and earlier depends on the web services and will stop working when the old website and web services go away.

Released CodeSnip v4.21.1 (bug fix)

Back in December 2022 I was quite pleased with myself for releasing the v4.21.0 update to CodeSnip . The main feature that was added in v4.21.0 work fine - automatically detecting un-registered Delphi compilers at start up - worked fine. But, oh dear, the more obscure new feature that lets you use lists in snippet descriptions was a bit of a disaster. The main implementation of lists was a bit flaky, but the main problem is that I forgot to add the implementation of lists in snippets reports and in source code comments in generated units. This pretty much trashed the reports and comments. It's taken a lot of coding to fix these bugs, hence the 4 month delay before this bug fix materialised. But I think I've managed it, although whether the new feature was worth the effort is debatable. ⏬ Get the new release from the v4.21.1 release page on GitHub. Here's what a snippet looks like in the UI when it's description contains an unordered list: Here's how the same snippe

Released CodeSnip v4.21.0

To close off the year, here's a new release of CodeSnip  that adds a couple of new features that have been in the pipeline for quite a while. The first is one I've been working on ever since a user missed out on getting Delphi 11.x Alexandria support when I added it. He expected CodeSnip to just use it when test compiling snippets. It didn't do that. I think his expectation was valid, so I decided to make CodeSnip a bit cleverer! Until now, when support for a new Delphi version was added to CodeSnip you would have to remember to tell it you wanted to use the new compiler, if you had it installed. Now, when CodeSnip starts it checks if there are any versions of Delphi on your system that are not registered with CodeSnip for use when test compiling snippets. If it finds any it offers to register them for you. This feature only works for any version of Delphi that CodeSnip knows about, which for the moment is all of them from Delphi 2 to Delphi 11.x Alexandria. This doesn'
