Excellent programmers job. It is good idea to add Pas2js and Object Pascal language support to Visual studio by adding yours extension for Visual studio.

But I Am still very very sad, that I do not know, if you have released yours special GUi creation units for Pas2js. -------------- next part --------------

In brief, the extension was a step before, for the launch of puma

Some questions:

1. Where are the sources of the ct binary ?

The plugin installs.
I tried to install on MacOS, but there is no ct binary for it, so it's unusable :(

2. The plugin is written in Javascript.
Any plans to write the plugin itself in pas2js ?

Michael.

I'll try to generate an executable for Mac, but I can't test it. the sources I prefer to keep private for now .... Yes it is possible to convert the plugin to pas2js, I made it in js to be able to advance

OK.

And how long is 'for now' ?
We don't want to end up with a second omnipascal :-)

Michael.

* Binary generated for mac ... extension update
* As soon as we publish the Puma ...

as soon as we publish Puma, CT sources will be available as well

Wonderful news !

I'm very interested in having your extension coded 100% in pas2js. Do you think this is possible ?

Michael.

Hi,

I updated the plugin.

I'm trying to create a project, I enter a project name, but I get an error:

Project failed => Directory no found => ""

All 3 plugin settings (ct path, pas2js path, pas2js sources) are set.

Michael.

Create or select a directory before, CTRL + O
Then create the project ....

Yes it is possible and it is even easy ... but I think it will be missing some aggregate libs example child_process, fs and etc. so I gave preference to writing in pure javascript

CMD-O on mac ;-)

That seems to work, compiling also works, thanks !

Maybe the plugin can check if a workspace has been opened, if not, a window.showOpenDialog can be used to open a directory and with the returned URI

let success = await commands.executeCommand('vscode.openFolder', uri);

Something like it...

Michael.

AFAIK these are all available in the nodejs and nodejs_fs units.

Michael.

Yes, I will add this ... Another thing I need to do ė identify the project settings when opening vscode ... At the moment you must press f10, and choose a configuration, because you can have many

Ok, as soon as i can i will migrate

It's only 500 lines of code, now is the time before it gets too big ;-)

If you need help or some things are missing in nodejs or libvscode, let me know :-)

Michael.
