Title: MBNCSUtil and other projects Source Code Browser now online
Post by: MyndFyre on December 30, 2006, 12:41:44 AM
http://www.jinxbot.net/CodeBrowse/

The code browser currently contains my MBNCSUtil project, and will soon expand to include JinxBot's core and BNCS plugin.  I will also be open-source the code browser itself, but I'll be moving it over to my own site fairly soon.

MBNCSUtil documentation will be updated to reflect these links soon.

I'd like to know what you guys think of the code browser.  You may notice that the cursor changes in between the tree hierarchy and the code viewer - this is for a planned, future upgrade that will let users resize the two parts.  I'd like to have your feedback on both parts.

Thanks!

Very nice!  It looks very handy.  I think the layout is a bit boring, but the content is nice.

It's a source code browser.

If you have any suggestions for improved layouts (remember usability), I'm listening.

Alright.  I will try and think of some when I have some more time.

It's really handy, all I need to do is drop in a new master page layout and it's fixed.  Of course I didn't need to use master pages.... everything is just one .aspx page anyway.  ;)

Well for starters I dislike the baby blue color on the sides.  I also think it would be neat if you had a title for this project above the code viewer box with an explination of what exactly you are trying to do and what you have accomplished already.

Well, the "baby blue" color was chosen just to try to come close to the MSDN documentation... but it seems to be lighter.  I think it might have been me remembering the hex color for an old clan's web site ;)

As for "if I had a title for this project above the code viewer box with an explination (sic) of what exactly I am trying to do and what I have accomplished already," I don't understand.  Which project?  CodeBrowse is meant to be an implementation of a source code browser for an n-project, n-tree, it's not meant to explain anything.  And it lists which source tree the current file is from:
(http://www.jinxbot.net/pub/codebrowse.jpg)
(Excuse my poor handwriting).

It's not meant to be project documentation.  Rather, it's meant to be collaborative with project documentation - for example, MBNCSUtil (http://www.jinxbot.net/mbncsutil/beta/) will link to its files on a code browser application from now on rather than the flat files like it does now.

Oooh, got'cha.  I suppose I overlooked that.
