# v3.9.0-dev

## Enhancements

- D highlighter: added suport for HEREDOC strings literal of type `q"()"` `q"[]"`, `q"<>"` and `q"{}"`. Support for HEREDOC strings literal based on a custom identifier wont be added as they might be removed as per DIP 1026.
- Docking: added a dialog to remind that docking is locked in certain scenarios. (#30)
- Editor: set the option to detect the indentation mode on by default, to prevent mixed indentation style.
- Editor: a fourth button in the diff dialog allows to reload but without preserving the undo history, which is better to navigate using _go to next changed area_ and _go to prev changed area_.
- Search Replace: the result of _FindAll_ when the string to seach is a regular expression are highlighted. (#14)
- TODO list: a new option, _disableIfMoreFilesThan_, allows to disable auto refreshing of the list could be slow when the current project is huge.

## Bugs fixed

- DUB projects: dependencies specified with _path_ and with their sources located in "src" or "source" were not passed correctly to DCD. (#29)
- DUB projects: dependencies specified with _path_ are recognized when their sources are in a sub folder taking as name the package name. (#29)
- DUB runnables: document specific messages were not cleared between two calls to "Run DUB single file package". (#27)
- Editor: case where brace auto close is triggered while in comment. (#31)
- Editor: prevent unexpected validation of properties in certain cases, such as `a.map` giving `a.mangleof` after `!`.

## Other

- Toolchain: removed the background tool _dastworx_ and replaced it with a library called _libdexed-d_.
- Toolchain: ddemangle is not required anymore, demangling D names is now done in _libdexed-d_.

# v3.8.4

## Bugs fixed

- Editor, calltips: problem when the function parameter included type constructors. (#26)

## Other

- Project CI: extraction of the changelog didn't work properly.

# v3.8.3

## Enhancements

- Compiler paths: when selecting the ldc2 compiler file the matching library path is added if it's "../import". (#20)
- Compiler paths: better messages when trying to use a compiler that's not defined. (#18)

## Bugs fixed

- Widgets, option: problem with the option "floating widgets on top". (#3)

# v3.8.2

- Custom tools: A new Toolbar button has for effect to terminate the process associated to a tool. (#15)

## Bugs fixed

- Editor, Calltips: the position of the window was incorrect when the arguments stood on several lines. (#10)
- Terminal, UI: the scrollbar lacked of accuracy. (#11)

## Other

- project CI: the release process is now fully automated, allowing painless and more frequent releases.

# v3.8.1

- dummy release

# v3.8.0

## Enhancements

- Compiler paths: added the "global" compiler. It allows to quickly set the compiler used whatever is the context.
- Compiler paths: the editors for LDC and GDC are less confusing now, since only one path is needed to specify the std/core paths, unlike for DMD.
- Editor, Calltips: in the call tips window, the parameter being edited is highlighted. Note that stacking of calltips in nested function calls is for now removed.
- GDB commander, editor, linux: it is now possible to inspect the variables in a tooltip window displayed when moving the mouse in the code editor.
- Messages: added support for GNU type messages. Note that the detection of the type (GNU or legacy DMD) is dynamic.
- MRUs: added an option preventing to remove non existing items, which used to be problematic when using git branches.
- Terminal, UI: added scrollbar.

## Bugs fixed

- Application, energy consumption: damped a small but constant CPU load, even on idle, caused by several timers.
- DUB project editor: it was possible to add a property twice.
- Editor: possible range violation when trying to rename an editor past the EOL.
- GDB Commander: no scrollbar in the variable inspector.
- Main menu: shortcuts for the tools not updated after editing the options.
- Terminal: clearing a temporary line because of automatic check dir caused a reset, clearing the backbuffer.

## Other

- the documentation is updated to be rendered by Gitlab CI or locally, with pandoc.
- windows binaries are not provided anymore.
