AppCode plugin and Xcode version

[PaulTaykalo]

Hm. Need to see what's going one there, but when I saw it last time, there's was not a lot API we can use related to AppCode settings.

[grav]

Parsing ~/Library/Preferences/appcode30/options/other.xml works:

$ xpath ~/Library/Preferences/appCode30/options/other.xml "/application/component[@name='XcodeSettings']/option[@name='selectedXcode']/@value"

Found 1 nodes:
-- NODE --
 value="/Applications/Xcode511.app/Contents/Developer"

I might be able to do a patch though I'm not sure how to integrate with the plugin and all that

[PaulTaykalo]

@grav Nice one. 👍
Don't think that I'll be able to get to it till Saturday.
So I'll write my thoughts about this:

• Update dyci_recompile.py to handle additional parameter for xcode location
• Update AppCode plugin for passing "additional parameter" to dyci_recompile.py

[grav]

Just got my Java on and recreated the simple bash one-liner above in Java for the plugin:

(XPathFactory, sheesh ...)

Alright, I did a pull request with your suggestions, with the big disclaimer that I didn't test it, since I haven't tried compiling the plugin for AppCode yet!

#45

[grav]

Okay, now I found out how to link to the correct jars to get the script to compile. I'm still not sure how to build the plugin jar so that I can test it in AppCode. Can you help me out there?

Edit: just for my own reference, this is how I compile:

javac -cp /Applications/AppCode.app/Contents/lib/*:. Support/AppCode/Dyci/src/com/stanfy/dyci/DyciRecompileAndInjectAction.java 

[PaulTaykalo]

Well. The plugin was made long time ago
It was created by InteliJ IDEA
http://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/IDEADEV/PluginDevelopment
Read docs there. The plugin version can be outdated
I think you'll be able to do it :)
I'll look to this one on Saturday - a bit busy here.

Also - just to mention - use fallback, to old logic of searching xcode-select, in case if something will be different in AppCode configuration

[PaulTaykalo]

It's may be even faster by using this example:

[grav]

Thanks for the pointers, I'll look into it!

[PaulTaykalo]

@grav How it's going? need a help? Will have some time to check this out :) Should I wait for you to finish?

[grav]

@PaulTaykalo Didn't get down to looking at the tutorials yet. I did do a pull request with code that now actually compiles, but it is still untested.

It would be great if you could test out the PR. I won't have the time before next week.

[grav]

Okay, I managed to set everything up and build the plugin in IntelliJ 13.
I had to download and build with JDK 1.6 from https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action in order to get AppCode to accept the plugin (since it's running on JRE 1.6).

However, I get a weird exception in AppCode when it starts up (or maybe it's when I do Ctrl+x the first time only, in any case, the reaction comes quite late):

I've updated the pull request with the updated .iml and changelog: #63

Maybe I'll look into it again later this week, but ping me if you have any clues :-)

Edit: when I build the plugin, I get a 100 MB big plugin with all the AppCode libs for some reason, so I haven't pushed the updated plugin.

[PaulTaykalo]

Well, 100 MB plugin is quite a lot :)
I'll look into your pull request later today thank you for your effort :)

[PaulTaykalo]

Thank you @grav
Closed with #63 / #64
Wasn't sure how to do it correctly, but it seems, that it worked )

[PaulTaykalo]

Well, we also need to handle 3.1 and later installations
