leds version 00.10

Starting up with leds and creating a simple project.

1 fire up leds

2 create a simple project for the D wc example

• click on the"new" icon on the projects view to open the "Project Definition" dialog.
• enter the project name
• select the project Base Dir
• enter the run command for the project "wc " plus your text file name
  (in my case I'm using this file you are reading now so it's "wc createproject.txt")
• enter "obj" on skip dirs
• press ok (you don't have to press OK now, you can proceed directly to step 2a)
  this will create a new project on your project view and
  two sub directories on your project base directory:
  • src
  • obj
    the obj directory will not be visible as we instructed the project
    to skip that directory on the project view.

2a create the project build information

• rigth click on the project and select properties
• select the Build panel
  • select the dmd location
  • select the phobos source location
  • press OK

3 add the wc source to the project

• copy the wc source code into the Untitled source buffer
• save the source code into the src directory of the project,br> (for source files with a module definition just select the project and
  press the "add to project" button on the main toolbar to save the file
  onto the correct place)
• rigth click on the project name and select resfresh. You should now see the file under the src directory
  

4 targets

• right click on the project and select properties agina
• select the Targets panel
  • press the plus button to add a new target
  • enter the run params "wc text"
  • enter te srcdirs "." (a dot for default package)
  • enter dmd on the compiler
  • add the phobos source location on the imports
  • enter "gcc" on the linker
  • enter "-lm -lphobos -pthread" on the link libs
  • PRESS THE TOP RIGHT MOST BUTTON
  • press OK

5 compiling your project targets

• select the project on the project view
• rigth click the build tool on the main toolbar and select your target
  this will compile the wc example programthe message on the new console should be something like

  
   Executing: cd src; dmd ./wc.d -I/home/ruimt/dmd/src/phobos:/home/ruimt/dmd/src/phobos -c -O -od../obj -op

 Finished: cd src; dmd ./wc.d -I/home/ruimt/dmd/src/phobos:/home/ruimt/dmd/src/phobos -c -O -od../obj -op 2>&1

 Executing: gcc  obj/./*.o -o wc -lm -lphobos -pthread

 Finished: gcc  obj/./*.o -o wc -lm -lphobos -pthread 2>&1

6 run your project

• select you project (should still be selected)
• left click on the execute tool on the main toolbar
  this will execute the command defined on the step 2. run command. A new console is opened and I can see:

  
   Executing: cd /home/ruimt/devel/D/WC ; wc createproject.txt
   83     526    2993 createproject.txt

 Finished: cd /home/ruimt/devel/D/WC ; wc createproject.txt 2>&1

6a run any of your project targets

Warning:

there is a bug on the targets that prevents the targets to be run with any paremeters

• (DON'T) rigth click the execute tool on the main toolbar
  TWO BUGS concurr to freeze leds:
  • the target definition lost the parameter passed to the execute command
    (so it becomes "wc" instead of "wc createpreject.txt")
  • the wc example never finishes if no file name is passed in.
