Split editor

[kleshas]

Hi! Is it possible to split the editor to at least two windows, so i could see two files at the same time?

Which OS?

In that case, you can only do this if you will build codelite from sources as described here:

http://codelite.org/Developers/Linux

With one exception, when running cmake,run it like this:

Code: Select all

cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. -DGTK_USE_AUIBOOK=1

When you have codelite compiled, you can then split editors by simply dragging the second tab away until it is detached and you can split the notebook

Thanks!

Oops.... Sorry for thanking you to early, but after following your instructions i can't even launch codelite! I tried running

Code: Select all

codelite %f

in terminal, and i got no output. I run the command and after 1 sec i can enter another command and absolutely nothing happens. Any ideas?

Just to clarify:

Look at the terminal part

I found the location of the log file and checked it

Code: Select all

[ 18:21:05:629 ERR ] Failed to load configuration file: /home/vitalius/.codelite/config/codelite.xml

I opened the codelite.xml with gedit, and the content was strange:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<

I deleted the configuration file, and now codelite launches and generates a new one. Now i can split the code editor! Thank you!

Hi. Erase the file and start codelit. This should solve the problem.

I've been bitten by that before. Maybe a feature request, 'bitch when codelite.xml is corrupted'
