Frogc in DartEditor

[Lars Tackmann]

Any ETA on being able to use frogc as the default JavaScript compiler
from the DartEditor ?

As my program grows (close to 20.000 lines of Dart now) this is
getting increasingly a pain (slow compilation, bad error
messages, ...) so I am suffering a bit here (although not as much as I
would have done with a equal amount of JavaScript). Also simple
refactoring support would be nice (although I know its hard implement
and probably not a priority now).

Keep up the good work.

+5 for the refactoring also - for now i'd settle for being able to
delete a file though :)

You can try using Frog in Dart Editor build 3101...

* Download continuous 3101, 
* unzip an SDK into it

    dart/

        configuration/

        dart-sdk/

            ... sdk dirs and files

        DartEditor.app

        features/

        ... etc ...

* create a .options file in the editor directory with the "frog" options set true

    see http://code.google.com/p/dart/source/browse/branches/bleeding_edge/dart/editor/tools/plugins/com.google.dart.tools.core/.options

    com.google.dart.tools.core/build/frog = true

    com.google.dart.tools.core/deploy/frog = true

    ### and optionally ...

    com.google.dart.tools.core/debug/frog = true

* launch Dart Editor from the command line with the debug flag and path to the options file

    DartEditor -debug /path/to/.options

Its still a bit rough, but ...

Fantastic - Thanks for the tip

Agreed - if I could just delete and move a file I would be happy (its
ok for now if moving/renaming a file does not actually update the
references in the code, its still way better than the current
procedure of doing it in a terminal and reloading the DartEditor).

This is working like a champ.  Thanks!

Has anyone succeeded to get this working on Windows?

I'm using:

dart-sdk (win32) : revision 3325
Dart Editor (win32_x86_64) build 3325

I've followed the instructions and put a frog.options file in my Dart
Editor directory (next to the .exe) w/ the following content:

com.google.dart.tools.core/build/frog = true
com.google.dart.tools.core/deploy/frog = true

com.google.dart.tools.core/debug/frog = true

com.google.dart.tools.core/platform/name = frog
com.google.dart.tools.core/libraries/embedded =
com.google.dart.tools.core/libraries/path = dart-sdk/lib

When I launch the Dart Editor (with -debug frog.options command line)
and open the Sunflower sample, for instance, I get a compile error:

File not found: lib/html/html.dart

any ideas?

[Calamitous]

same problem here.

I tried
#import('dart:json');
and it says:
- File not found: lib/json/json_frog.dart

(even with the new build 3331)

[Ross Smith]

I also got a reply from Vadim saying he encountered the same problem
on Windows.  I'll try out 3331 myself tonight but it sounds like i'll
run into the same problem as you...

Is anyone smoke testing these editor builds on Windows?

With 3101 (last announced release) I could not even compile w/ the
built in compiler - that is why I went to 3325, which works with the
built in compiler but which produces ginormous JS :)

thx!

[Emily Fortuna]

Yes. The change at http://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=3418
should fix the "file not found" errors on Windows. Let me know if you
encounter other errors with this, since I'm not yet testing in
combination with the dart editor. I'm actively working on addressing
the Windows build issues.

[Calamitous]

tried it with a build from "latest", the red "point" is gone, but when
executing it states the following error:

Error: line 1 pos 1: library handler failed: Do not know how to load
'dart:html'
#import ('dart:html');
^

(same with "dart:json",...)
additionally any further try to start the script is prevented by the
disabled "launch in dart server" button.

Hi Emily,

This is working for me in build 3456! I get 'no main method
specified' for my libraries (I don't get that w/ the other compiler?)
but it still compiles my js and it runs nicely in the browser.

Thank you for the support,

-Ross

You're running into http://code.google.com/p/dart/issues/detail?id=1203. It's on our radar, and we should have a fix out in the near future. Cheers!
