F# on SharpDevelop and command line arguments - command-line

I was trying to use SharpDevelop 4.3 as an F# IDE. I asked the question on the SharpDevelop forums but it's been a week and I've had no response. Where exactly can I pass command line arguments to the program run through the IDE when I want to debug the program? I went through the Project Options Menu items, and all the tabs contained, but I didn't identify a place for command line arguments.
I tried using Xavarin also, but it crashed immediately when I try to create an F# application.

The F# addin that is included with SharpDevelop does not currently have a way to set the command line arguments when you run your F# application. There is no Debug tab available in under project options. The only option available currently would be to modify the source code.

Stop Eclipse Command Line Pop Ups

I am writing a small FLTK (GUI) program on windows 7 using Eclipse Kepler. My "int main()" function is not even set to receive any command line arguments, yet every time I build the program exe and run it a command line pops up being the GUI interface.
Does anyone know how to suppress this? I do not need a console display for any input or output etc. as this is all controlled via the GUI interface.
Thanks.
It has nothing to see with eclipse. It's a standard behaviour of c++ applications on Windows. Look for console on this page. You will find how to disable it.

Run command line when a document is saved in Visual Studio 2013?

I'm currently evaluating using VS2013 for a HTML5 project.
In this project I would like to be able to run a command line tool every time a file is saved (and have the file path passed as argument to the command line tool), and then have the output displayed in the console in VS. It's also important that this setup can be part of the project file, so that when a developer opens the project it's already setup correctly and ready to go without any additional configuring in VS.
In both Sublime Text and Webstorm projects all this is easy to achieve, but I haven't been able to find anything similar in Visual Studio. Any tips would be much appreciated!
You can set a DocumentSaved handler with Visual Commander and run a tool. See the "2. Run Cppcheck on the saved file and show results in the Output window" extension sample.

eclipse debug perl curses

I am writing a Perl program that uses curses for output and move the cursor, and color characters. Previously, when I was working under windows I use Komodo it was able to run an external console.
Now I work in Linux environment and use eclipse + epic. If you try to just run the script, it uses the internal console eclipse, which is very cut. You can just run the script using external tool, but I'm interested to debug using external console window. Is this possible?
Unfortunately, use of a File and /dev/pty/1 does not help in solving my problem.
The fact is that in this case it is impossible to get the characters introduced in the console through curses getch(). Always returned 1 instead code of pressed key.
Here is an answer that will take you most of the way (based on post #6 of: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=743131, although since then, in the "Indigo" and "Juno" versions of Eclipse, things have changed somewhat, and this answer is up to date):
Go to "Run -> Debug configurations". Click on the (fourth) "Common" tab. Go to the third frame from top, and there, check-mark the checkbox which says: "File". Enter the file name of the console window you want your output in.

Notepad++ using "Run" command in a macro

Is it possible to create a macro in Notepad++ that is able to utilize the "Run" command so that I may call an external .exe to operate on the file specified? I am able to do it manually, but when I create a macro that includes the run (F5) and give it a specified command it fails to execute. Is this because the run command isn't supported when creating macros? If so, is there a work-around method?
Thanks
edit: to add context -- I've written a couple ruby scripts to facilitate data-entry that's done using notepad++, and would like to integrate them to the editor. Having them run by a shortcut method created by recording a macro seems to be the best way to do this, unless it's not possible to utilize the run command.
FWIW The Zeus and Zeus Lite editors can do this.
You can do it with the NppExec plugin (available in the Notepad++ wiki ). It allows you to create mini-scripts with keywords that perform commands.
You will also be able to add your script in the contextual (right-click) menu, or assign a shortcut to it.
I personaly uses it to saves a sql file, place myself in the current directory, and then executes isql.exe (external executable) on that file. That simple script transforms my Notepad++ into a rather handy SQL IDE.
I don't think you do it using only Notepad++.
Please see this thread:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/notepad-plus/forums/forum/331754/topic/4805532
If I understood you correctly, you have it all set up but are having issues with running it through Notepad++'s run command?
If so, try what I mentioned here.
I had similar issues with running php compiler and resolved it with the "cmd /c" added like in that mentioned example. And a "& pause" at the end, just so I see what goes on.

Eclipse - Running programs not in the native eclipse console

I'm currently writing some ncurses code and the native Eclipse (3.2.2) console can't display its graphics. I'd instead like to run the program through xterm. What I want is to be able to start xterm and run from there. I'd prefer to not get involved with any plugins or that jazz. Just something simple.
EDIT
So I have the answer and it was pretty simple...
Run -> External Tools -> External Tools -> New Launch Config...
Then select location of your terminal emulator. /usr/bin/gnome-terminal in my case.
after that set the appropriate arguments. "-e ~/ncurses/start" in my case.
Then make sure you aren't allocating a console by unchecking that option in the "Common" tab.
Annon add to his question:
its a pain to keep switching back and forth from eclipse and the terminal. I'm looking for a way to just hit something like"F5" and have it run my ncurses program in a new xterm terminal process
The simplest way to do that is to report the command line into an external tool configuration, and point eclipse to use a shell (like described in this program)
In the argument, you will add the command line eclipse execute (command line which can be retrieved as mentioned in the second part of this answer below).
Of course, replace 'cmd.exe' by the shell of your choice, and try not setting the 'Allocate Console' checkbox in the Common tab of that external launcher.
To launch through a xterm, without eclipse involved (not what you are asking for, just keep here for archive)
You can launch your program through Eclipse (Run Configurations), and observe through a 'ps' command the exact Java command line used.
Or launch it in debug mode, and right click the task in Debug view and open Properties. It will show the command line, as documented here.
Then launch that command line directly in your console (Eclipse being not involved at all at this point).
