I was wondering if there's a way to disconnect other IDE instances in Cloud9 IDE, because I left C9 IDE on at work and I have the code highlighted which makes it hard to work with when I get home.
There's currently no way to remotely disconnect other collaborators (which you became once you opened your workspace on multiple tabs), but you could disable collaboration altogether by adding ?collab=0 to the IDE URL, which should remove the code highlighting.

I use Firefox's Developer Tools for developing CSS, and it's great, however I have tried many times in the past to get Emmet support in their code editor without any success. I wondered if any of you wizards had any ideas. I came up with 'snippets' to use with an old text expanding AutoHotKey program called Texter - https://gist.github.com/jeffreykarbowski/280576, I recently had to change computers and I can't seem to get Texter to work any longer.
It would be nice to be able to setup a WebExtension or the likes to have it integrated right into the FF Style Editor (as a plugin), however, it seems like this has been address already and currently not possible? https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1088996
Maybe a different port to an AHK script or a Node script that runs in the background? I am not sure, but I don't care for the LiveReload that the Emmet developer put out, and it doesn't work with FF anyways. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks!
I worked on a Console Application with a friend today. Is it possible to share the default console during a Live Share session? What I mean is that we had to compile and run our program manually through the default Windows Terminal to see output(which wasn't the best idea, there was a ton of empty lines displayed every time we would input anything), and debugging was impossible because we just couldn't see the console (only the host could).
According to the docs, it's possible to share the terminal in both VS Code and Visual Studio, but I don't think there's a way to share the console that comes up when you debug a console app. The solution I see is simply sharing a terminal, running your app in it manually and if you want debugging, you can try attaching the VS debugger to the console app's process after you start it manually by following this guide.
I have a web application that uses IIS, but when I try to debug it VS just locks up and gives me the hour glass cursor icon. No browser window opens, nor does an instance pop up in the Task Manager. VS says its Running / not "Not Responding", but I cannot interact with the IDE. Can't Ctrl-Break to stop or anything.
I was able to run it before, and I'm not aware of any system or IIS changes that could cause this. I've disabled source control and I've tried launching the app in both Chrome and IE but it still behaves the exact same way as described above.
Has anyone else encountered this? The only threads I could find just describe general slowness in the IDE but otherwise its functional. The recommended fix was to disable the source control functionality, which as I said I already tried.
I should note that I don't seem to have an issue running & debugging winforms applications. I also just created a web application and was able to launch it in Chrome and get to the homepage. Also, it doesn't make a difference if I have a breakpoint set or not.
This solution has 4 different projects. If I set a different project as the Startup Project, it does run and launches the browser but it just gives me a 'file explorer' sort of view where it just lists the files in that project's directly which is obviously not what I want.
Edit; If I manually open a browser tab, try to navigate to http://localhost/myApplication, VS pops up and asks if I want to attach process w3wp.exe to IIS APPPOOL\myAppPool. If I attach, it opens a new tab in Chrome and my application runs. But unless I do these 2 steps, it does not run.
I have a console-based server and client application which talk to each other over a TCP socket on localhost (although eventually will be used on separate machines).
I see that if I manually launch the server target and then the client, XCode seems happy enough to run them both in separate debugger contexts, they connect and work just fine.
Ideally I'd like to set it up (via a scheme or pre-run step or something) such that I can one-click 'run' (or cmd-R) and both these contexts pop up and run happily.
So far my experiments with the post-run script (for the server) passing "$(BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR)/cclient" to /bin/sh seems not to work, and this is less than ideal anyway because it wouldn't run in a debugger context anyway.
Is there a way i can easily set this up?
Thanks,
DaveM
EDIT: Added a screenshot of what I can achieve with several clicks, but would like to get to with one click/key-combo...
You can set up scripts and other actions in breakpoints.
Click on the left side of editor to create a breakpoint, and CMD+OPT+click on the breakpoint icon to edit its options.
Also, you can choose the 'Automatically continue after evaluation' option, for convenience.
For details, see Session 412 Debugging in Xcode from WWDC 2012 videos. This session just happened to demo debugging skills with Xcode in a client-server setting.
Synergy is a program that enables you to use the same mouse and keyboard in two computers. I have a PC and mac connected directly with an Ethernet cable therefore the connection is great and it seems as if there is only one computer.
I am developing an iPad application and the only software that I have found that supports iwebkit for CSS is Expresso. I use that to edit my CSS files in the mac and I use dream weaver on my PC to edit PHP, HTML and JavaScript files. The only problem is that I am constantly using both computers to develop the application and its very frustrating using different shortcut keys for each computer. It would be very nice if I could use the same hot-keys on both computers.
So far I have tried:
Changing the modifier keys in the keyboard section under system preferences in the mac. That works but just with the keyboard from the mac not with the keyboard that I am using with synergy that controls both computers.
Creating applescripts that what they do is to send a shortcut key then compiling them and saving them as an application. After they are saved as an application I go to system preferences and try to run them with a different shortcut key. when I create that shortcut key system preferences crashes and closes without saving the changes.
Creating shortcut keys in synergy which it works but only in one computer. Synergy will always send the same keystroke regardless on which computer you are using.
Lastly I have tried looking for "IronAHK" which in a lot of posts people say it modifies the mac hotkeys but I have not been able to find it for the mac.
Is there a way to have the same universal access keys across my machines?
THe following article was very helpful for me (working from a Mac, controlling a PC):
http://www.nextofwindows.com/how-to-properly-map-keyboard-between-mac-and-pc-when-share-mouses-with-synergy/
Step 1: Configure Server
Step 2: Double-click on the PC (or Mac if the Server is a PC)
Step 3: Toggle the key Ctrl and Super to mirror each other
When adding a new computer in synergy you can change command and control keys. Here is an example in windows. I was not able to find it because synergy place this in a location where I never thought I could find it.
Now I can use control + c to copy files both in the mac and in the pc and most of the command such as control + a to select everything etc. To fix the other issues so that I can use 'home' to go to the beginning of the line for example I use the program provided by Evan Moran which was the first answer in this post.
For the mac I use KeyRemap4MacBook. It is pretty good for being free.
That said, consider using different source editors so that you can code only on one system. This will make your life a ton easier. Dreamweaver is not necessarily the best. Visual Studio is pretty good on Javascript, CSS, and HTML, and their express versions are free.
If all you need is syntax highlighting EditPlus is great on the PC and will work on all languages you mentioned. If you need to stay on a mac then TextWrangler is great as a basic source editor. Both have free trials. Good luck!
