OMG, what is this flip the buffer thing. I am ported back in time. Yes, that is what is happening. I have to edit a program in D3 and I forgot about flipping the buffer to see the changed code. It cannot be 1984 again. I did not like it when I first experienced D3 but it was not called D3 back then. What was it called? Maybe it was called OA or R83. Why should I care why is this editor so archaic? This is just a dream. I'm waking up now...
U2logic has created a full screen editor using the open source program Eclipse IDE for our D3 programmers. You can experience continuous compile of your D3 code. You can have a local history of all your changes to each program. You can have highlight reserved words that can be any color that Eclipse supports. You can edit D3 programs from you Mac or Windows work stations. You can see compiler errors via the Marker window by line number. You can see compiler error via console window.
Within Eclipse there is support for source code control for D3 via mainstream technologies like GIT, SVN, Team Foundation, and others. If you have a particular source code technology you like, they will have built an Eclipse plugin to access source code server.
Over time has we get going we will add the ability to copy from D3 to U2 and from U2 to D3. This will make porting or moving data from system to system pretty easy. We have use our copy and paste technology to copy between Universe and UniData for years. Our copy and paste technology allows us to copy data from server to server faster than most other U2 products saving you time.
Many D3 customers have already ask us to port many of our other tools to work with D3. We are prioritize them now and will be adding them over the next many months. Thanks to all of our beta testers for their valuable input whether it be a bug or a suggestion.
