It'll be nice to see the project on OSDrawer when you get it cleaned up. A generous gesture to the community, I hope other devs will pitch in some help when the time comes. Best wishes on your trip. Sounds like an interesting place of the world to visit; be careful :) - karl Mon, 04 Aug 2008 10:43:54 +0100 http://www.haikuware.com/#pc_1105 Hi Karl, and others, Lot's of thanks for your support on Niue so far, I'm really proud that Niue makes part of the Senryu releases! I've received lot's of mail about the latest release and here's a short excerpt of the replies I've sent: [i] ...To map out the short future of Niue, in about a week I'm going to make a month long trip through Russia and Mongolia and development time will be zero. After that my plan is to start documenting and cleaning the code. Then I hope to switch to Haiku for development and iron out all the bugs and differences that are between Zeta and Haiku. After that I have a big list of small improvements and UI changes planned, of which some come from Stephan's earlier mentioned mail. Also there's a couple of new things that I've been working on already but didn't make it into v4. basically v5 should result in a fully Haiku targeted and improved addition of v4. Here's a short to-do list for v5: - Extend visual designer (more elements) - Haiku layout-management in VD - Undo in VD - Remember last active project - ), ] & } helpers (like in PE) - Improve Search 'n' Replace - Save all changes on Make/Make-Run/Auto-save? - Stricter Coding style in automated files - Open existing code in Visual Designer - App-Uploader - Remove makefile-dependancy? (more or less done, rethink makefile handling) - Improve prefs handling - Backup-file with date In the distant future I would like Niue to become a community driven project, with the code hosted on OSDrawer.net or like haiku as an sourceforge or berlios project. Before that there is an awful lot of cleaning up and rewriting to be done. Because Niue uses so much of 'borrowed' code I strongly feel that I should keep the current code-base of Niue 'available by request'. Actually I'de like to include full sources with every download, I don't do so because the codes are such a mess and therefor not useful for other beginner developers...[/i] As always, this TODO list will change during development and I can't promise that all targets are met. Everyone, thanks again for your interest, and as always, tips/suggestions/help is very much appreciated!

Will include it in Senryu ;D - karl Wed, 30 Jul 2008 08:22:35 +0100 http://www.haikuware.com/#pc_1096 Hi all, I've just uploaded version 4 of Niue! After some weeks of hardly any progress I restarted work on this version two weeks ago and just finished most of the release goals today. There are still a couple new things left out, which are now planned for the next version, to be expected somewhere in October. Niue *should on both R5, zeta and Haiku, development is done on zeta for the time being so there are some known problems with Haiku, like no mouse-wheel scrolling. When Haiku R1 alpha goes live I will switch to Haiku for development and focus will be fully on Haiku. Along with many small improvements the biggest change is the code-completion module, which I'm pretty confided with. I'd like to hear your opinions, as always! Feel free to email with any bugs, tips or requests...

This will probably not be a fully checked/debugged release though, after Russia rl will be more quiet and I'll be spending more time on Niue... I'm still in doubt if I should put the project on Osdrawer to see if there's more people who would like to work on Niue in the future, the code base is a big mess right now and pretty un-understandable for anyone except me. Cleaning the code up is not a fun task and not really a priority for me. The sources are available by request though, so far I've had one email from someone asking for the code. Eventually, after Haiku R1, the sources will be documented and cleaned to be released as open-source and Niue will become a open-source project. As always, please please provide me with some feedback, I need to know if the ui is intuitive enough to be used without a manual, are the menu's arranged in logical manner, which functions do you really miss, and so on... Cheers, 0033 p.s. It's a bit late but congrats to everyone in Spain ;) - 33 Thu, 10 Jul 2008 15:40:46 +0100 http://www.haikuware.com/#pc_1081 Hey 0033. Any progress with next Niue? - MaxOS Sat, 05 Jul 2008 18:05:28 +0100 http://www.haikuware.com/#pc_972 Can't wait for the next release ;D Enjoy the nice weather! - karl Sat, 24 May 2008 14:22:18 +0100 http://www.haikuware.com/#pc_968 Hi all, Just to let you know, after two weeks of extremely nice and hot weather here in Holland, I've restarted work on Niue a couple of days ago. The Code Completion is now finished and I'm working on improvements on the Visual Designer and I'm figuring out how to implement a makefile generator. A next release of Niue (v4) is planned for mid-June. Bugs, feature-requests, tips, this is the moment to let me know ;) A preliminary changelist: Main - Added Code Completion - Added a New Window option - Added an option to turn off Code Completion - Added a shortcut to Icon-o-Matic in the Export dialog Tools - Added a Align to Grid button in Visual Designer - Grid size is used as window size when creating new projects from Visual Designer - Visual Designer input now uses true bounds instead of width & height - Item names are now live in Visual Designer 0033 - 33 Sat, 24 May 2008 12:47:52 +0100 http://www.haikuware.com/#pc_928 Just to let you know, Niue 4 will have full-featured code completion 8) http://www.xs4all.nl/~tako0033/Niue/complete.jpg - 33 Wed, 30 Apr 2008 11:24:01 +0100 http://www.haikuware.com/#pc_872 Good work 0033. 8) - MaxOS Thu, 17 Apr 2008 17:09:31 +0100 http://www.haikuware.com/#pc_870 Hi all, Niue version 3 is out, see above for what's new. I'm still very curious about your findings, let me know! - 33 Thu, 17 Apr 2008 15:18:50 +0100 http://www.haikuware.com/#pc_712 Of course you can find these files on our site to, that is unless you like clicking on dead links :P http://www.haikuware.com/view-details/development/language/gcc-current-3x http://www.haikuware.com/view-details/development/language/gcc-2953-beos-070218 http://www.haikuware.com/view-details/development/app-installation/beos-r5-personal-edition-for-windows - karl Thu, 13 Mar 2008 07:30:33 +0100 http://www.haikuware.com/#pc_711 Thanks I downloaded it and all is working. Do I have to rename the new gnutools folder? The mouse wheel It is not working in the project files. Outside in Haiku it works. - BrunoBratwurst Thu, 13 Mar 2008 05:46:03 +0100 http://www.haikuware.com/#pc_710 Thanks for your reply! You need both gcc and the makefile engine. Best is to install http://www.bebits.com/app/2680, and then install the latest gcc (http://www.bebits.com/app/4011). Mouse scrolling *should work, where doesn't it work for you? Ciao, 0033 - 33 Wed, 12 Mar 2008 19:24:08 +0100 http://www.haikuware.com/#pc_709 What programs are needed to make nieu compile. makefile? Or gcc? Short how to would help me alot. Besides I don't know how to compile Nieu looks very good. It finds at least one old project I did. Mouse scrolling would be nice. - BrunoBratwurst Wed, 12 Mar 2008 11:53:16 +0100 http://www.haikuware.com/#pc_707 If curious about your findings of the latest Niue, let me know! - 33 Tue, 11 Mar 2008 17:57:06 +0100
