Syntax highlighting. Cool! |
|
@GilesBathgate: I see where you're coming from. @Harvie, while it didn't, the version I just pushed should. Thanks for your interest in this project. |
|
Is there a good reason not to accept at least the "Added length of vectors/string, accessing string characters" part? I would find that very useful and I have definitely heard a lot of others clamoring for these features. |
|
The len() function has been submitted in a separate patch from Giles and is now merged. |
|
That's great news! I don't mean to complain, but isn't it pretty useless to be able to get the length of a string if you can't do string indexing? |
|
Yes, but it's a start - let's add one clean feature at the time. |
|
Yes, good call. |
|
String indexing was submitted as a separate patch by Brad and is now merged. |
|
Pulled the syntax highlighting stuff into a separate branch. I think we'll leave the rest for now. |
* writing the filename where the assertion failed * use just the filename and update the tests * relative path * move the path handling to the exception handler * update tests * return fs::path to prevent accidental writes (#6) * using PRINTB instead of stringstream
