That's always the excuse.  Funny how the regular IDE doesn't have any problems with the libraries in the install directory.  I installed your IDE to get past not being able to scroll through the library list.  I guess every program as it's faults.

You want to install libraries there? Any reason in particular? I can research the problem if you need to, it is just not a good practice because that folder will be replaced if you update the app, but your document folder will always keep the libraries. I can think on 1 issue: maybe there are duplicated libraries between the directories? Remember this version does not share the same preferences files with the other one (it uses his own preferences).

Nothing changed from the defaults.  I got the error and tried most of the common troubleshooting techniques.  Then, I completely uninstalled ERW and re-installed it with all default settings.

Path to libraries that is getting errors: F:\Applications\Arduino\Arduino ERW 1.0.4\libraries

I did some experimenting and When I move all of the libraries to my documents folder, the error goes away.  If I put some in the documents folder and some in the install path, I get the error.

That directory is for "system default" libraries, you should use the one in your documents, check the option I say to you in the previous version.

I seem to have found an issue.  If I have 46 libraries (folders) in the install path, I get "launch4j" errors.  When I delete one of the libraries, the program starts fine.  It also doesn't matter which library I delete, still get the same error.  All libraries work fine in the original Arduino IDE install.

This is a fresh install of the latest build.
Win7 x64 (All updates)

UPDATE:  It seems that something is conflicting with the "Documents" location.  If I have any libraries in the Documents/Arduino/libraries folder, your IDE doesn't want to start.

Hi,

That's very weird because I have a lot of libraries (I tested with >50 when working on the Scrollbars for the menus), but most of them are disabled via the "library manager" option.

What you changed to produce the error? What is the path of your libraries right now? (absolute path in Preferences) Did this error happened the first time you installed the app and copied something to the default library folder? Can you check that you are copying the libraries to the same path you get when clicking Browse: Libraries from Sketch/Manage as shown here:

Not exactly a solution for your problem, but I added a scroll to the menu and a library manager:

You can just disable all the libraries in 1 click and then enable the ones you need from the menu.

Thanks for the feedback Sembazuru. The coloring thing is purely non-intentional because I am 'hacking' the paint routine, so it automatically presets the coloring.

I tried to include the line numbering system from jEdit (Arduino IDE pane is based on jEdit controls, and jEdit right now is light years away with enhanced scroll, collapsive blocks, numbers, etc) but due the dependencies it is a major rebuild to update that panel. So what you tested it is a very quick and dirty attempt (1 hr or so).

So I still I am unsure how to handle the line number space, dynamic or static. I think the style of the panel can be added to the theme folder maybe (like background color, number color). Also will check the horizontal scroll, didn't noticed that, and it seems be very important due the way this hack works. It might need to do another trick like moving the textpane a little to the right, not  inserting the numbers inside the text and sync both controls.

It is because a bluetooth dongle/another serial device. You have 3 options:

1) Disconnect other dongles/etc

OK, here is a temporal file that adds that preference (file/preferences) to move the caret to position 0. Just replace the pde file from c:\program files (x86)\arduino\...



I will build the full setup after testing adding line numbers and making the upload hex work, but I am not sure how long that will take.

Also, attached is a preliminary version of the line numbers, should they have some line or special coloring area? I am yet unsure how to handle bigger numbers, right now the "dynamic" offset is buggy but a smooth one will be a bit more resource intensive (calculating the length of the last line number when scrolling):

OK, no worries, I will add the option to change the behaviour on the preferences, it is super easy to do. I just was puzzled about what was the reason. I think the perfect solution would be to replicate Visual Studio behaviour: exact same position/layout when you left, but the ino files don't have any metadata to use, so best second option was this one in my opinion.

I wonder how Windows 8 hitted(/will hit) your habits hehehe (I am pretty adaptable, but 8 is the first OS that changed a lot my ways to do everything, since Win 95 OSR2!)

Two enhancements that I'd like to request (in addition to line numbers in the sketch area):

• Make the cursor movement to the end of the loop() function optional.
• When it is configured to auto-open the Serial Monitor, have it scan the source for Serial.begin() and automatically set the Serial Monitor's baud rate to match. This should probably also be optional.

Thanx.

What do you mean with: "Make the cursor movement to the end of the loop() function optional"? Should I add a way to disable that (currently moves the cursor to the end of the setup when opening a sketch)? or add the possibility to switch between end of loop or setup functions?

Yeah, sorry about the confusion. When writing this I had forgotten where the cursor automatically went to. My request is to optionally totally disable it. (I know you use it as a selling feature, but I don't care for it. Just IMHO.) Maybe make it a pull-down with any or all of these 5 options: None, beginning of setup, end of setup (default), beginning of loop, end of loop.

Thank you again for this enhancement. Other than this behavior I enjoy your enhancements.

Any particular reason why don't you like that? You prefer the cursor in the position 0?

I like your enhanced IDE 1.0.4 but it frequently quits an upload with an error message like "avrdude.exe not in sync." The IDE usually shows the wrong or no com port when this happens. I never had this error on the stock 1.0.4.

I am using ERW 1.0.4 with an Uno rev. 3 on a Win 7 32-bit computer. A friend has the same issue on an XP machine.

Thanks,
Karl

Are you sure about this? can you test side by side the mod vs the original and take a screencast or picture? I can't do a lot with that description, for me, and other people the updated avr tools included works much better, so if you experience issues I don't even know where to start fixing something 

Maybe you still didn't tried everything

http://arduino.cc/forum/index.php/topic,118440.0.html

If it does not work, then maybe it is something wrong with the ftdi

Enried, I want to take this chance to publicly thank you for a really valuable addition to the IDE and as much as I would love line numbers... I can wait until it happens, quietly now....  <BFG>

Doc

Cool, it seems everyone wants line numbers I will experiment a bit with that to see what can I add.

About the serial speed, since it is kinda linked to 'automatic com port selection' and that feature is like a general suggestion for the IDE I was waiting something 'official' related with this. Will take a look into this too anyway.

For the moment, things I will try to look:
1) Upload any hex file (this is pretty ready right now*, but still not fully working)
2) Serial speed automatic detection from the source
3) Line numbers

Any chance of you being able to add line numbers to the code window? Or is that beyond what you're able to change in the IDE?

It is possible as a hack I think. It depends on how much is wanted by the users

Great job! But one question though. Mine is duemilanove w/328p, when I tried upload a sketch, it said "avrdude.exe: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00". But in fact I got the same message while uploading with official IDE 1.0 or above. On the contrary, I received no error message if using 0023 IDE. Do you happen to know how to fix it? I know it is nothing related to your program, but this problem has been troubling me.

Hi, there is another item in the boards called "duemilanove w/328" without the "p" can you test that one?

does this support arduino due ?

No, this is the version 1.0.4

Hey HjBgt, try this: http://arduino.cc/forum/index.php/topic,118440.0.html
If the problem continues, then it is probably something bad in the board.
