Hot on the heels of our initial release we have a few fixes. Mostly minor things but definitively things we missed on Monday. Thankfully the IDE has a lot of tooling inside, so fixing these things and adding suggested functionality was quick and easy. We are aiming at having the hotfix out friday at theContinue reading “Quartex Hotfix 1 this week”

Quartex Pascal version 1 is available
It is with much joy that we finally release version 1.0 of Quartex Pascal! It represents three years of continuous development, and over a 1,5 million lines of streamlined, hard-core programming! Quartex Pascal is very much ‘the road less taken’ in terms of engineering. A product that compiles object pascal to JavaScript, has its ownContinue reading “Quartex Pascal version 1 is available”
V0.20.0 “Debugger” build
This has been a long time coming but it’s finally time for a new backer build! There have been a long list of improvements, so this bould should do wonders – and ofcourse, this version has the long awaited debugger included.
JQueryUI package update
Our master craftsman Ed Van Der Mark just shipped an updated package for jQueryUI. We are so happy to have Ed in our community, and he has implemented some of the most complex JS packages we have.

Debugger is alive and rocking

Library project type added
QTX now supports a library project type!
Putting some final touches
We are nearing the end of this developer cycle, meaning that the last deep-dive is coming to an end, and thus we turn back from the low-level coding and return to the UI tickets and final push.

New unit structure and mini parser
To speed up the amount of time the IDE uses to display the unit structure, we have spent some time implementing a special parser. This parser is diffent from the one already present in the compiler core
New JQuery UI package
One of our more experienced backers, Ed Van Der Mark, has updated his JQuery-UI package for Quartex Pascal. His latest package installs both the widgets into the component palette, and also registers project templates – so that you can create new project types tailored for JQuery UI directly from the “New project” dialog.
