Qt Creator version 2.2 contains bug fixes and new features.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The most important changes are listed in this document. For a complete
 | 
						|
list of changes, see the Git log for the Qt Creator sources that
 | 
						|
you can check out from the public Git repository. For example:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
git clone git://gitorious.org/qt-creator/qt-creator.git
 | 
						|
git log --cherry-pick --pretty=oneline origin/2.1...origin/2.2
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
General
 | 
						|
   * Add support for running user defined external tools (Tools > External)
 | 
						|
   * Move tool chain definitions out of Qt versions:
 | 
						|
      * You can now define tool chains in Tools > Options > Tool Chains
 | 
						|
      * Qt Creator now supports more than one instance of a tool chain
 | 
						|
   * Add support for customizing MIME types by editing patterns and
 | 
						|
     magic headers
 | 
						|
   * Integrate the memcheck tool from Valgrind for Linux and Mac OS X
 | 
						|
   * Create the infrastructure to set up "soft dependencies" between plugins
 | 
						|
   * Add the qtpromaker tool that has the same functionality as
 | 
						|
     "qmake -project", but is much faster. It provides a way to easily set up
 | 
						|
     dummy .pro files that you need to quickly inspect and navigate "alien"
 | 
						|
     codebases with Qt Creator
 | 
						|
   * Document Qt Creator coding style
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Editing
 | 
						|
   * Add an Inkpot color scheme
 | 
						|
   * Add UTF-8 BOM support
 | 
						|
   * Move the Open in External Editor item to Tools > External > Text
 | 
						|
   * Add the Expand/Collapse All context menu item to the Outline pane
 | 
						|
   * Add support for user-defined macros (contributed by Nicolas Arnaud-Cormos)
 | 
						|
   * Add a snippet editor with syntax highlighting, indentation, and basic
 | 
						|
     auto-completion for C++ and QML
 | 
						|
   * Add GLSL support with:
 | 
						|
     - Syntax checking
 | 
						|
     - Highlighting
 | 
						|
     - Code completion
 | 
						|
   * Binary editor:
 | 
						|
     - Visualize data differences after updates
 | 
						|
     - Fix selection if cursor is left of anchor
 | 
						|
     - Allow copying also if selection is "backwards"
 | 
						|
     - Do not draw blinking cursor when there is a selection
 | 
						|
     FakeVim:
 | 
						|
     - Implement Ctrl-N/Ctrl-P
 | 
						|
     - Implement 's' in visual block mode
 | 
						|
     - Fix Alt-Gr handling on Windows
 | 
						|
     - Handle more Ctrl-W + <x> commands
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Managing Projects
 | 
						|
   * Improve the robustness of qmake project support against syntax errors
 | 
						|
   * Change the handling of command line arguments of processes that are
 | 
						|
     started from build and run configurations:
 | 
						|
     - Argument lists use native shell syntax; this affects quoting and
 | 
						|
       environment variable expansion most
 | 
						|
     - The SOURCEDIR and BUILDDIR environment variables were replaced
 | 
						|
       with %{sourceDir} and %{buildDir} variables
 | 
						|
     - This affects working directories and executable paths as well
 | 
						|
   * Support syntax highlighting and completion for qmake project files
 | 
						|
   * CMake: Add UI completion, changes in .ui files are picked up without
 | 
						|
     a rebuild
 | 
						|
   * Specify text editor behavior settings per project
 | 
						|
   * New project and file wizards:
 | 
						|
     - Support new keywords %MONTH% and %DAY% for C++ template file
 | 
						|
     - Add wizards for creating OpenGL fragment and vertex shaders
 | 
						|
     - Add a wizard for creating HTML5 based applications
 | 
						|
     - Add a wizard for creating JavaScript files, QTCREATORBUG-3070
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Debugging
 | 
						|
   * Rewrite debugging engine using the Microsoft Console Debugger (CDB)
 | 
						|
     for debugging executables built with Microsoft Visual Studio,
 | 
						|
     resulting in significant speed-up and better display of data
