Justin Payne Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I read the overview of the feature and watched the video on the image conversion but I'm not having a ton of success with loading and converting images from png and bmp. I see there are settings for columns and rows. I assumed this might be the required resolution of the source image but after importing, I just see a black square. Are their more comprehensive instruction that go over each option and how it affects the imported image? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try loading the *.asm file from the workspace directory but i always get the same message. im trying to use atasm for now. Eclipse version : Version: 2020-09 (4.17.0) Build id: 20200910-1200 For win x64 -------- Never Mind ----- i got it working Thanks for the hint, the typo is fixed in DEV branch now. The error message appears if you open a file via drag & drop or "Open File". In that case the file is opened with an absolute path and has no relation to the workspace folder. But since some things in the IDE are relative to the workspace folder, they cannot work in that mode. The solution is put the relevant files into a sub-folder e.g. "Atari800" of the workspace folder and then open them via the project explorer in the IDE. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always been on the todo list for new video tutorial but real life keeps me away from that.

Blues76 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I'm still amazed that we have this and thank you @JAC! I'm going to ask a question but I have to confess, I didn't read all the pages in this thread or watch all the tutorials. I will watch the tutorials soon. Here are two questions. 1. I'm using the zero-installation files (it is a lot easier to get them working than setting up, at least for right now... but I will set it up later). It is working. However, if I create a new file, say hw.asm and then says open with MADS, I will get it to work and show the right syntax colors. When I open Eclipse, it goes away, only for my file and I have to do open with MADS again. 2. Has anyone made this work (and I'm assuming that it is possible) for the 16-bit compilers for the 65c802, for example using @drac030 's ASM compiler (ELSA) ? ELSA: Thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blues76 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 i’m case this question was lost in the previous answer: I'm using the zero-installation files (it is a lot easier to get them working than setting up, at least for right now... but I will set it up later).

Maybe this helps: How to I associate my source file extensions with the correct editor? in https://www.wudsn.com/index.php/ide/faq, incl. the link to the video tutorial.

dukdukgoos Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if there's a bug in 1.7.1. The "Open with..." option to select the editor you want to use isn't remembering its settings. For example, if I select a file that defaults to the MADS editor and "Open with" the plain text editor, it will correctly use the plain text editor. But if I close the file and double-click it to open it again it opens in the MADS editor. It used to remember the last "Open with" value and use it again when double-clicking a file.

dukdukgoos Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) I did some further research on the "Open with..." issue detailed in the previous post and can confirm it only occurs with Eclipse 2020-12. I tried both 2020-06 and 2020-09 and they both work correctly. So now I guess the question is does WUDSN need an update to support 2020-12 or is it a 2020-12 bug that needs to be fixed upstream?

I tried to swap in Eclipse 2021-03 and get a lot of error/exceptions. I'll try and see what I can do here. EDIT: I found that is these message and missing icons are related to cached data in the workspace from old Eclipse parts of previous installs. My solution was to delete the ".metadata" folder in the workspace to clean it. Then you'll have to re-import the projects from file system using "File / Open Projects from File System" and then set the paths to the assemblers/emulators again. So you should export them before using "File / Export / Preferences / Assembler Preferences" and import them again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have checked this in 2021-03 and there the problem exists also outside of WUDSN. It seems to be a general regression in Eclipse. I've filed a bug there: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=572503 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukdukgoos Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 According to the developer update on that bug report it looks like it's intentional and they won't be fixing it. It seems like "Open with... Other" will do basically the same thing? I'm unclear as it whether it still remembers the setting per file or only by filename or ext. If it's the latter then that's a drag, as lots of files with the same name or extension need to open in different editors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tested it and the options offered in the editor selection dialog are not sufficient. I've reopened the corresponding bug report. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JAC! Posted May 14, 2021 Author Share Posted May 14, 2021 Note: Some user have reported problems like "Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could no be found" updating to the lasted (1.7.2.x) version of WUDSN IDE plugin. As we found the problem typically is that the Eclipse version itself was too old. For WUDSN 1.7.2 you need as least Eclipse 2021-03 (aka 4.19). Here is the complete release list and the Eclipse versions required foryour reference: https://www.wudsn.com/index.php/ide/releases 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenjennings Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Hi lo.... I recently did a new install on Linux, new eclipse, and fresh update of WUDSN. The Hex editor display only looks ok when the ASCII character set is chosen. If any of the Atari character sets is chosen it ends up with microscopic, tiny font that is not readable. I added Atari 8-bit true type fonts to the system and have used them in other programs. I went into eclipse visual setting and was able to choose the Atari truetype fonts for Diff display. What font setting do I need to look for to set WUDSN's hex editor display? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
