Workspace restore.

Post by spaces »

Just installed the new 7.0, it looks very slick. Phenomenal redesign.

Anyway, my issue is with restoring the workspace. I have "load last session on startup" switched on. While it loads up the last workspace, it still won't open source files. This is kind of a showstopper for me since I have to manually open at least 10 files. It worked in previous 6.1.1 flawlessly. I tried 7.0 32 bit on win7.

Ok what do? Thanks for any help in advance.

Not related, but: are you running 64 bit windows or 32?

Someone indeed reported this, but I was not able to reproduce it... until now
What happens if you close the workspace before you exit? for me, closing the workspace before exiting codelite fixes the issue (and this is why I never noticed it, since I always closes the workspace before exit)

Yes, that fixes it. But I always close down CL with workspace open. And the restore workspace on startup is very a convenient feature. (Also yes it's 64 bit win.)

I will be starting releasing weekly builds (again) from next week, so make sure you close the workspace before exiting codelite until the next build is out ;)

Have you tried CodeLite 64 bit? (to be clear: only CodeLIte is 64 bit, it does not affect your code)
You should be seeing great performance improvement

Ty I'll do that till next release. Yes the next one I download will be the 64 bit one. Tho I'm very satisfied with the performance of the 32 bit one too. My source files are usually no bigger than 50kb but there are many of them. Anyway everything is very fast. It's good to work with CL.

The main difference is in response time, for example: CodeLite 32 bit starts slow on 64 bit machine, while the 64 bit starts almost instantly. You will also notice the difference
when loading sessions, opening files.
I did some measurements, and parsing codelite workspace (total of ~3400 files, include external headers) takes about 34 seconds on my machine with the 32 bit version, while it takes about 22 seconds with the 64 bit version

Hello,

same problem here with codelite 64 bit on Linux Mint, good to know the fix is already in the queue. Workaround to close the workspace before closing codelite is very useful.
Another (very minor) issue I noticed is, that the output pane wasn't hidden any more if I click inside the code editor (though the setting was still set). After clicking "apply" in the settings dialog, it works fine again.

Best Regards
Ralf
