I need help with DarkCode

DarkViper · 11-15-2003, 02:17 PM

im going to swallow my pride here, i need help.

I Would like to ask anybody who has a little free time to help me out coding this program.

please email me: darkviper@blackjaguar-studios.com

We will negotiate.

I Would like to thank everybody beforhand for their help, if they choose to provide it.

I only want at least 1 person with C++ experience to help me out. And i can rest assure you, it more than likly is not that difficult a task.

absolute full credit and more will go towards the individual(s) who wish to help me out.

Again, thank you very much.

(And yes, i will be playing an active role in the development as well, lol.)

basically this is what i want help with.

Splitting .cpp files into more than one .cpp file
A normal Save function, instead of always Save As.
I need help in speeding up the filling of the code snippets process
Implementing Bitmaps and Images
Splash Screen

*in the future* (more than likly DarkCode v.3 here...)
Rich text Editing with Syntax Hilighting
a custom GUI
Project Manager

my goals are realistic enough for my current level of C++ skill. However nothing i do seems to want to work.

Attached is DarkCode v.1.65 to see where i have gotten so far on my own. (1.65 is the version im working on until completed, it will then be v.1.7)

Again, anyone who wishes to help me out, please e-mail me at: darkviper@blackjaguar-studios.com

And again still, thank you.

Hmmm, just a question about your project there. Your making an all in one (from web design to software development) coding program? Will this program eventually have a debugger/compiler and all that? I would assist you with your project but I'm a C programmer not a C++.

Sounds interesting to say the least. Especially since your program seems to be every type of language-in-one package. (By looking at the open/save list of files, however, I wouldn't use that method for opening/saving but then again thats just me.)

have you ever used a program where, you click "File > New" and your prompted with a list of things you can make new? Yeah, something liek that, or, something like Adobe Premiere. Making it have a built in compiler would be incredibly interesting to say the least. Make it MINGW or something...

And cant you compile C as C++ with an option? i swear you can...

you might want to look at the source code for XEmacs it has everything you said you wanted and ALOT more. Good Luck!

PS... Im not sure if there is a windows version, if not your on you own for the graphics code.

Change your Open and Save code around a little, for the love of God. Put all of the crap you have under your open menu into the drop-down of the Open dialog. Do the same for your Save, because it's a bit restricting with just "DarkCode document" (even though you can easily get around it by typing *.* in the filename box)

I just really liked the way Milkshape had its Save/Open sections. So i wanted to mimick it. However, if i do get more and more complaintes about it, i will change it. I have no problem with that.
