Code Pilot 1.1 released!

Posted on Tuesday, June 29th, 2010 by Zbigniew

A new version of Code Pilot was just released. Here’s the list of new (or made better) stuff in 1.1 with some comments. You can download the new version directly from here.

Experimental support for older Xcode versions and Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
By popular demand, we have made Code Pilot compatible with Leopard and earlier versions of Xcode. It’s still an experimental feature, so remember to try it for yourself before you buy! It’s also worth reminding, that Code Pilot’s license is user-bound, so you can use it on many computers. If you have some old machines lying around, you can use it on them without needing to buy another serial number.


Fast search field cleaning with cmd-backspace
cmd-backspace works with input search field in a smart way now – it deletes the whole query, but if you’ve selected some file or class, it let’s you stay in it and just change the query. Hitting cmd-backspace again will bring you back to project-wide search.


Auto-copying selection from current editor window into Code Pilot search field
This is something widely requested as well. If you have anything selected in your active editor window, it will be automatically entered into Code Pilot for you when you bring it up.


For multiple screen setups, Code Pilot window appears now where the currently used editor window resides
This makes working with multiple displays much easier. Code Pilot will just show on the screen you’re currently looking at ;-)


Source code files for languages not indexed by Xcode (Ruby, Python, HTML, etc) are now visible in search
Source code files for less obvious languages will be visible in project search now. This is more of a bugfix – it should work in the first place.


Symbols for these languages now visible when introspecting currently edited file
Because of the fact that Xcode doesn’t index symbols for aforementioned languages, we couldn’t include them in project-wide search. But what we’ve managed to do is let you browse symbols for currently edited file. It works in a funny way with HTML – just start editing file of this kind, then bring Code Pilot up and press space. Ruby, Python and other non-indexed languages should work the same way.


Many small fixes and improvements
The usual suspects. Like pasting into search field.

    Will You release version for XCode 3.2.4 (pre-release)? Currently it doesn’t work.

    Expect an update with 3.2.4 pre-release working in a day or two.
