The default specification for predicate definitions is [in], so you don't need to specify that a parameter is an input. You may be surprised to see that the IDE will change a valid definition like this: demoPred : (integer Input , string Output) (i,o). to this preferred form: demoPred : (integer Inp...

[out] indicates that a value is returned from the predicate. For example: class predicates demoPred : (integer Input, string Output [out]). clauses demoPred(Input, OutPut) :- if Input < 0 then OutPut = "Negative" elseif Input = 0 then OutPut = "Zero" else OutPut = "Positive&...

wrapString : (string String, charCount HyphenLength, charCount MaxLength, string Indent) -> string* Lines. % @short % @detail #HyphenLength <= #MaxLength % @example % % All the statements below succeed: % ["123456","7890"] = string::wrapString("1234567890", 6, 6, "...

Is there a way to dynamically change the font in the projectToolbar beyond the options in the IDE wizard? I can change the text of the Static Text and can dynamically change a listButton's strings and font, but cannot figure out how to change the Text font. onTest(_Source, _MenuTag) :- vpiToolbar::g...

That is beyond my expertise, unfortunately.

cgi::init(stream::ansi(core:: ansi)),

Perhaps you want core::threadAnsi

Happened again after a Windows update today -- fixed it the same way as before.

This doesn't happen with VIP 9x.

Ahhh ... auto-format doesn't trigger on changes made by an external editor (Notepad++). I needed to change the Tab Replace by space setting in NPP so I don't need to remember to run the little macro I created to to that before closing the file.

Thanks!

Find in Files/ Replace All seems to be having a problem with overwriting '(' and adjacent characters in the target text. If use, for example, the parameters below: Find in Files dialog.jpg The IDE changes the line below activityCombined_Updater::updateCombinedActivity(activityCombined_Updater::updat...

Solved: For some unknown reason, the FIF dialog was opening almost completely off the top of the desktop screen and only a tiny sliver of the grey bottom of the dialog was visible. I couldn't use the mouse to "grab" the title bar of the dialog because it was far off the screen, so I was ab...

C:\Program Files\zabkat\xplorer2\xplorer2_64.exe %* in the CMD file works if unquoted.

If it is quoted then xplorer2_64.exe does not handle the command line parameters.
Other applications may interact differently with CMD files with respect to quoting.

Surrounding the command C:\Program Files\zabkat\xplorer2\xplorer2_64.exe eliminates the error with Notepad++ but doesn't help with the VIP IDE. I notice that the Tool commands that are working point to C:\Program Files (x86)\... and the one for Xplorer2_64 is in C:\Program Files\... Could there be a...

Thanks, Thomas! I looked for hidden characters in the file name and found none. I tried running Xplorer2 from the Notepad++ command line and got this error message: Ashampoo_Snap_Thursday, August 13, 2020_11h13m51s_001_.jpg It will run from the command line (Win-R) and from the Xplorer2 command line...

There is no way in the Vip9x or 8x IDE. The right-click context menu option to Remove from Project also is limited to Packages, text files and resources, which makes sense since deleting just one of a class's files is illogical (although it might be logical to delete an interface whose name does not...

When I try to set up one particular application ( xplorer2_64.exe ) to launch from the IDE tools the application window (I think) flashes briefly and closes. It behaves the same whether the Wait status on the Configure Tools dialog is set to Wait , NoWait or Auto . The application folder and file na...
