Scintilla 5.1.4 is now available from the scintilla.org web site.

This is a minor fix release mostly improving GTK.

On GTK, primary selection paste within same instance is fixed as is a potential crash when closing Scintilla instances.

A C++17 compiler is required to build Scintilla. Microsoft Visual C++ 2019, GCC 7.3, Clang 6.0, Xcode 9.2 Clang or newer will work. Some slightly older compilers may still work.

A list of changes is available on the history page.
http://www.scintilla.org/ScintillaHistory.html

Scintilla uses Mercurial (Hg) for source code control. The repository can be cloned with
hg clone http://hg.code.sf.net/p/scintilla/code scintilla

Thanks to the contributors of code and documentation and to the testers.

Hello,

you seem to have uploaded the wrong tarballs. scintilla514.tgz contains the code for version 5.1.3. Likewise, lexilla513.tgz is a version off.

For reference, my file checksums:
34f42492ebc9cea3ea3ca3076143248b0970ce36  lexilla513.tgz
a7d276820c39b4b4365a030a2363ae9b5c1cf429  scintilla514.tgz

Best regards

   Thanks, there was a bug in the Linux distribution script.

   The .tgz files for the previous release (Lexilla 5.1.2, Scintilla 5.1.3) will also be wrong so should be redownloaded by anyone that wants to use those versions.

   Should be fixed now with the downloads available from scintilla.org on the downloads pages.

   SourceForge isn’t working well at the moment so the fixed files haven’t been uploaded there yet.

FYI the scintilla513.tgz contains files with CRLF line endings rather than LF line endings.

Cheers,

Yes, its a pain to revert the build VM to earlier releases, run its script then move forwards again so I just did something like ‘hg archive --rev x x.tgz’ from Windows.
