We finally introduced multi-threaded indexing, which resulted in a speed-up of about 300% on our systems. Besides some bigger features like full text search and a VIM plugin, we also worked on easier project setup and increased UI performance. + +You can download Release 0.7 [here](https://www.coati.io/downloads/). The full changelog is available [here](https://github.com/CoatiSoftware/CoatiBugTracker). We will outline a few features new to this release below and give a roadmap towards the next release at the end. + +

Simpler graph node bundling shown on `clang::FileManager`.
+
+ +### New in this Release: + +* Added multi-threaded indexing +* Updated to [Clang 3.8](http://clang.llvm.org/) +* Added full text search to search bar +* VIM plugin +* Better macro handling +* Improved UI performance of graph and code views +* Improved graph node bundling +* Updated project setup: added Exclude Paths, removed Header File Extensions + +### Multi-threaded Indexing + +Coati now supports multi-threaded indexing, which speeds up indexing by about 300% on our systems. The number of threads is set to 4 per default and can be changed with the setting "Indexer Threads" in the [Preferences](https://www.coati.io/documentation/#PreferencesWindow). Please note that the number of threads can't be changed while indexing. + +
+ + + +

+
+ +### Full Text Search + +The search bar supports case-sensitive and case-insensitive [full text search](https://coati.io/documentation/#Fulltextsearch) in all analyzed source files now. To start a full text search begin your query with the a `?` character. This defaults to a case-insensitive search. Use `??` for a case-sensitive search. + +
+ + + +
Case-insensitive full text search.
+
+ +Please note that we are initializing the full text search index when executing the first full text search. This might take a couple seconds for big projects, but greatly reduces search time afterwards. + +### VIM plugin + +We extended our integration into widely used code editing tools by providing a VIM plugin. It's available in our open-source [vim-coati](https://github.com/CoatiSoftware/vim-coati) repository on GitHub. For the future we plan to put our other plugins into public repositories as well. + +### Improved Macro Handling + +We extended our macro handling to show all places a macro is used in all indexed files. This includes uses in any of the directives `#define`, `#undef`, `#ifdef`, `#ifndef`, and `#if defined()`, as well as expansions within other macros. + +
+ + + +
Different types of macro occurences.
+
+ +### Updated Project Setup + +Our project setup has seen a couple changes due to feedback gathered from our users and OpenSource projects we tested Coati on: + +* Now header files are only indexed when included in a source file. +* The **Header File Extensions** setting was removed. Now any file that is within the Project Paths and included by a source file is indexed. +* An **Exclude Paths** setting was added to avoid indexing of files or directories, although they are within the Project Paths. The setting is located in the Advanced Settings of the [Edit Project Window](https://coati.io/documentation/#EditProjectWindow). +* We extended the UI for [**project setup from Compilation Database**](https://coati.io/documentation/#CreateAProjectFromCompilationDatabase) by adding a separate step for project name and location. We explain that the project stays up-to-date with the `compile_commands.json` file on refresh. Additional settings, like Include Paths, were moved to the Advanced Settings, so they can still be used when necessary. + + +## Roadmap + +We will release new Coati versions approximately every 5-6 weeks. For the next release we mainly plan to fix known issues in the UI: + +* Fix font size and window size issues on different platforms. +* Fix UI for HighDPI screens. +* Show overlay on graph and code view for slow queries. +* Proper indexing dialog. + +If you have any questions or ideas please leave a comment below. + + + + + diff --git a/web/blog/_sass/_elements.scss b/web/blog/_sass/_elements.scss index 311a66b7..f02e7fb3 100644 --- a/web/blog/_sass/_elements.scss +++ b/web/blog/_sass/_elements.scss @@ -18,18 +18,6 @@ figure { img { margin-bottom: 10px; } - a { - img { - @include translate(0, 0); - -webkit-transition-duration: 0.25s; - -moz-transition-duration: 0.25s; - -o-transition-duration: 0.25s; - &:hover { - @include translate(0, -5px); - @include box-shadow(0 0 10px fade($base-color, 20)); - } - } - } &.half { @media #{$large} { img { diff --git a/web/blog/images/release_0_7/filemanager.png b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/filemanager.png new file mode 100644 index 00000000..63a0da76 Binary files /dev/null and b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/filemanager.png differ diff --git a/web/blog/images/release_0_7/filemanager_small.png b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/filemanager_small.png new file mode 100644 index 00000000..887c4126 Binary files /dev/null and b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/filemanager_small.png differ diff --git a/web/blog/images/release_0_7/fulltext.png b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/fulltext.png new file mode 100644 index 00000000..169a4f4c Binary files /dev/null and b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/fulltext.png differ diff --git a/web/blog/images/release_0_7/fulltext_small.png b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/fulltext_small.png new file mode 100644 index 00000000..955f4175 Binary files /dev/null and b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/fulltext_small.png differ diff --git a/web/blog/images/release_0_7/indexing.png b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/indexing.png new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d6495106 Binary files /dev/null and b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/indexing.png differ diff --git a/web/blog/images/release_0_7/indexing_small.png b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/indexing_small.png new file mode 100644 index 00000000..18b49a47 Binary files /dev/null and b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/indexing_small.png differ diff --git a/web/blog/images/release_0_7/macro.png b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/macro.png new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4523771b Binary files /dev/null and b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/macro.png differ diff --git a/web/blog/images/release_0_7/macro_small.png b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/macro_small.png new file mode 100644 index 00000000..2e547407 Binary files /dev/null and b/web/blog/images/release_0_7/macro_small.png differ
