Is there any way to write Shoes application using IDE (NetBeans for example)?
I hadn't found this solution and I don't like running Shoes app, selecting files, run.
I'm sure code for packing Shoes and IDE code will be different (I hope in require directives only), but I'm intresting in possibility.
See this question for how to accomplish it in RadRails/Eclipse. I'm sure it's equally possible in NetBeans, but I haven't tried it.

IntelliJ IDEA is pretty amazing for Grails development work. It is rather demanding on resources (particularly memory), though, and takes a long while to start up, so occasionally I like to use Visual Studio Code instead for light editing. I'm trying to tune it most effectively for Grails development. Any tips would be most welcome. One thing I'd particularly like to know is if there is some way of setting up a beautifier/formatter for .gsp files.
First of all, you'll have to setup VS Code for java. You can follow this page https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/java
Then, you'll have to install of the groovy language extension. Currently there are three such extensions in the library. code-groovy has more active users than the others and it provides good gsp support. I do use VS code for quick editing or just viewing source code occasionally but its still not the replacement of Intellij. I can't use VS Code for hardcore java/grails development yet.
I've been having a problem with including Shoes in a Shoes app for Windows. The packager tool works perfectly when I don't ask to include Shoes in the app: I get an .exe that, if launched on a Shoes-less computer, downloads Shoes and then runs as expected.
However, when I ask it to include Shoes, the packager seems to get stuck on something from the get-go. At least, in some other cases, the packager does make an executable, even if it didn't contain Shoes. Here, it just freezes.
I even tried the solution proposed here, but I couldn't manage building shoes. After cloning the rubyinstaller repository and downloading the requisite elements, the rake command aborts prematurely.
Installer may be a corrupted one
or may contains some missing files.
So,its better to download another and try again.
May be installer itself is buggy. Try other packaging software. The great one for Windows is NSIS here.
It has a simple scripting which will help you to make your installer more adaptive.
And you could search an old version of this product.
I've tried to use MonoDevelop 2.4 and 2.6 with Ubuntu 11.04, but neither of them seems to actually provide any way of running the project. (As the picture shows, the Run, Step, and Debug items are disabled -- both on the toolbar and inside the menus.)
This is true for all project types I've seen so far -- C#, Python, etc...
But mono-debugger is installed. Is there some post-setup task that I need to do manually, for this to work?
Looking over https://github.com/mono/monodevelop/blob/master/main/src/core/MonoDevelop.Ide/MonoDevelop.Ide.Commands/ProjectCommands.cs
Perhaps you haven't selected a 'Project'? Open up the Solution pad and click on the Test1 project (not the solution at the root of the tree, but the project just below it).
I'm just guessing here since I don't have Ubuntu and can't actually test anything.
Edit: actually, it looks like clicking on the Solution would work as well.
From looking at the code, another possibility is that you don't have a build target? Not sure how that would happen, but unless you only opened Main.cs and not actually Test1.sln, I don't know what to suggest.
When you opened the project, which file did you open? Test1.sln? Test1.csproj? Or Main.cs?
Try looking for mono-mdb and more packages in synaptic, this may fix this issue.
Don't remember exact names, Linux box at home...
Did you really open the project? It looks like you just opened Main.cs. It won't work that way.
Make sure you installed the compilers (mcs etc)
Here is the task: I would like my JavaScript code from different files to be compressed and concatenated into one file that is going to be used on a web page. The problem is that I'm pretty lazy :) and using some command line tools like, for instance, Apache Ant + YUICompressor each time I add a new line of code doesn't look attractive too me. Replacing uncompressed versions with a compressed final script before release is not a great option as well.
I know that such IDE as Eclipse allow to build project automatically after each update so it is possible to use already mentioned Apache Ant and YUICompressor in a build scenario to reach my goal. However Eclipse is too geeky for me, it's not that I can't figure out how to use it, I just don't feel comfortable using it. Maybe someone knows a good alternative (for Mac OS)?
PS. I hope I don't sound too capricious :) , after all having convenient tools is rather important for a programmer.
You can get a bundle for TextMate called JavaScript Tools that contain two built-in text compressors, available at http://andrewdupont.net/2006/10/01/javascript-tools-textmate-bundle/ . TextMate is available at http://macromates.com/ .
Is there any GUI based debugger for Ruby? Just a debugger. I do not want a full IDE like NetBeans because they tend to get your project dirty with extra files.
thanks!
Check out Mr. Guid, which uses GTK+ and is cross-platform.
In netbeans you can tell it to put the netbeans project files in a separate directory or you can easily ignore the nbproject directory with your project's vcs. Netbeans has by far the best integrated debugging I have seen and there are many other great reasons to give it a try. Don't worry about netbeans using a project folder. I highly doubt you'll be able to find a better free GUI debugger.
If the code completion stuff gets in your way with netbeans it is easy to turn off and only request code completion when you want it (ctrl+space). That was my biggest gripe with netbeans.
I haven't used it in about a year, but I liked Arachno Ruby
