Do you execute ops in bulks or one by one?. Last bunch of the entries have been all about the code. Today let's try something different. Partly because at the time of writing I'm just 34 thousand feet above Atlantic and really don't feel like coding anything, but partly also bec...

Screenshot of the Week #28: NetBeans + JavaScript = True!

Apologies for my low activity on this blog recently. I've been swamped during the NetBeans 6.1 development cycle. The main reason is that I've been completely consumed reimplementing the JavaScript support in NetBeans. It is now built on the same infrastructure as the Ruby editor. It's been quite a sprint to get it done, but we're about to freeze NetBeans 6.1, and it's in. And I think NetBeans now compares quite favorably against other JavaScript IDEs and editors. Does this mean I've moved on from Ruby, and the NetBeans Ruby support is now in maintenance mode? Far from it! Not only did we double the size of the NetBeans Ruby team from 6.0 (when Martin Krauskopf and myself were the team); in 6.1 Erno Mononen and Peter Williams joined us. And I'm still in charge of and working on the Ruby editor - which in 6.1 adds complete Rails 2.0 support (and Rails 2.1 - I just yesterday integrated support for the new UTC timestamp migrations), as well as a bunch of new quickfixes, and tasklist integration, etc. However, a lot of the work I've been doing has been on the editing infrastructure, which benefits Ruby directly. For example, in NetBeans 6.1, the long file indexing process which would happen on every IDE startup now happens only on the first startup. And more importantly, we're much more robust now in handling complicated embedding scenarios in ERb/RHTML files. Where in 6.0 we had a lot of custom code to handle ERb specifically...
