Features and/or Improvements / Re: Vsdiff state file

Yeah, but....
I just discovered 'vs -x alt_config.sta'
This lets me run a 2nd instance of Slick, but have them share the same SLICKEDITCONFIG directory.

You can use -sc and a config directory.

Features and/or Improvements / Vsdiff state file

« Last post by jporkkahtc on Today at 12:42:11 am »

When running 'vs.exe' you can do
vs -x %SLICKEDITCONFIG%\24.0.0\alternate_vslick.sta

But, for vsdiff "-x" does something else.
Is there a way to run vsdiff with an alternate config file?

Features and/or Improvements / Re: Sort files listed in FILES tab by date?

I've added Date and Size columns to list_buffers.

Attached is my "tbfilelist.e" from Version 24.0.0.8, with my modifications.

General Programming / Re: C++ and including header files still give undefined reference error

Thanks for the reply!
The book omits a lot of code for brevity. For example they don't include the #include directives or using namespace std; in most of the code examples in the book.
In this case they just mention definition and implementation. Not actual files. I guess it was confused with "normal classes" where they use a .h and .cpp file. I will have to look back in the book, but I think they just put both in the same .h file.

It most certainly looks like the incorrect behavior is gone

Right after a reboot the test that used to take 16 seconds ran in about one second.  And now 10 minutes later it takes about two seconds.

Sounds like it fixed the flakiness problem. The Qt clipboard code uses some sort of OLE APIs which are more prone to blocking failures due to another application having the clipboard open. The new code I wrote uses simple Win32 calls.

I’m still surprised it takes so long to run. I l’ll do some testing on other machines and try the windows clipboard history option.

Excellent, thank you!  I just tried the new vsapi.dll with the test macro that I posted, and now it works as expected.

It used 13 seconds to run with repeat-key and 1000 iterations.  With Windows clipboard history enabled it used 16 seconds (but each line is the same, so there is no more than a single update to the history).
