New DIYLC is soon to be finished!

Looks great!

Much faster than the old one. Click start-to-finish would be really good if it could be done, but it already seems easier than before

Can sticky components be a saved setting in the preferences?

Cool, I implemented the start-to-finish for all two-point controls such as resistors, jumpers, etc. Wasn't a big deal.
It will be out in few days, when I add some more stuff.

It won't start on linux if i just run the bat file. (sh run.bat)
error:

[user@mypc dilc]$ sh run.bat
Usage: java [-options] class [args...]
          (to execute a class)
  or  java [-options] -jar jarfile [args...]
          (to execute a jar file)
{...}
See http://java.sun.com/javase/reference for more details.
run.bat: line 1: lib: commando not found.

To make it run run.bat needs to be:

Code Select Expand

java -Xms32m -Xmx128m -cp diylc.jar:lib org.diylc.DIYLCStarter

I don't know if the ";" between diylc.jar and lib is needed when using Windows, if so I'd recommend to just add a run.sh containing the code above.
I'd be glad to help testing.

Have not been able to get it to work on my mac. Error message states something like "can not launch diylc.jar" or some such thing.

the new version contains run.sh file with : instead of ; (that is classpath separator on windows). Let me know if you have any ideas or bug reports

Hi,
haven't used it much, but toyed around a little and everything seemed to work. I'll report back if I find something.

Cheers,

Fixed some annoyances people reported in the meantime and it's ready for a new round. It also opens files from v1 but has very limited set of component it recognizes (trace, pad, resistor, cap and that's it , but it's a start. Please don't report anything regarding v1 files because I know it sucks
Maybe the biggest change is going back to v1 way of creating leaded controls, with two clicks. Also, PDF scaling is fixed, exe wrapper is added for windows folks, mouse wheel affects zoom rather than scrolling, unit editor is fixed, annoying logs removed, trace mask export added, etc, etc.

Hope you like it.
