Wing Pro Changelog

What's new in Wing Pro 10.0.3.0

Mar 19, 2024

Features:
Add a popup menu for AI Auto-Context that allows including or excluding specific files
Add an option for uniformly indented block commenting to the Editor > Block Comment Style preference and to the comment-out-region command
Add User Interface > Keyboard > Always Underline Accelerators preference to underline accelerators even if the Alt key is not pressed
Changes:
Change AI context configuration to set the maximum overall context size and use that also for AI chat, to avoid hanging up on large numbers of context files
Apply the maximum context file count also to AI suggest and refactor
Use the newly created directory by default for creating virtualenvs in New Project
Use checkboxes rather than selecting items in the Save Files dialog. The space key can be used to check or uncheck the files.
Change Browse buttons in file entry areas to use the entry if for initial directory and not its parent directory if it is already a directory
Bug Fixes:
Fix folding failures in some Python files
Fix upgrading pip during project creation
Improve indication of upload status for AI chat context files
Fix failure to update the AI context tooltip when configuration or focus changes
Reduce CPU time used by updating auto-context

Fix a regression in 10.0.2 that caused Debug I/O output to fail to appear in some cases
Allow pressing Space to select a button when it has the focus
Enable typing an accelerator for a dialog button without pressing Alt if it is underlined and nothing else uses that key. This requires enabling the User Interface > Keyboard > Always Underline Accelerators preference.
Fix moving between dialog box buttons with the left and right arrow keys
Set initial size of the Save Files dialog so that button labels are visible
Fix colon key management and auto-indenting after 'case' statements
Fix restoration of UI state after comparison of two files with Diff/Merge ends

New in Wing Pro 8.0.0.4 Beta (Apr 30, 2021)

New in Wing Pro 8.0.0.3 Beta (Apr 17, 2021)

New in Wing Pro 8.0.0.2 Beta (Apr 15, 2021)

Features:
Improve New Project support to allow selecting host, and creating source directory and Python environments along with the project (Wing Pro)
Support Django project creation also on remote hosts and in containers (Wing Pro)
Add package management with pip and pipenv (Wing Pro)

Changes:
Wing Personal no longer includes documentation and features specifically designed for third party modules, packages, and frameworks
The editor background color preference has been removed, since it conflicts with setting the editor palette
When using PuTTY for remote development on Windows, Wing no longer uses any port numbers stored in a PuTTY configuration, in order to work around a long-standing bug in PuTTY that uses the wrong port if no configuration was ever saved. Non-standards ports now also need to be specified in Wing's remote host configuration for that host.
Remove the legacy Django project configuration functionality, which has been replaced by New Project
Add an optional encoding keyword argument to the ExecuteCommandLine and AsyncExecuteCommandLine* wingapi methods to encode / decode strings sent to / received from child process. Encoding defaults to the default OS Commands encoding. If the encoding is set to None, no encoding / decoding will be done and bytes instances will be returned.

Wing Python IDE 7.0 - April 8, 2019:
Wing 7 introduces an improved code warnings and code quality inspection system that includes built-in error detection and tight integration with pylint, pep8, and mypy. This release also adds a new data frame and array viewer, a MATLAB keyboard personality, easy inline debug data display with Shift-Space, improved stack data display, support for PEP 3134 chained exceptions, callouts for search and other code navigation features, four new color palettes, improved bookmarking, a high-level configuration menu, magnified presentation mode, a new update manager, stepping over import internals, simplified remote agent installation, and much more.
Wing 7 Screen Shot:
Download Wing 7 Now: Wing Pro | Wing Personal | Wing 101 | Compare Products
Some Highlights of Wing 7:
Code Warnings and Quality Inspection (Wing Pro):
Wing 7's new code warnings and code quality inspection system focuses on early identification of real coding errors, including syntax errors, undefined variables and attributes, unresolved imports, and other types of errors. Warnings may also be obtained from external checkers such as pylint, pep8, and mypy.
Data Frame and Array Viewer:
The new array viewer for debug data can work efficiently with very large data sets created with Pandas, numpy, xarray, sqlite3, and any Python lists, tuples, and dicts. To use the array viewer, right click on an item in the Stack Data tool and select View as Array.
Improved Debug Data Display:
In Wing Pro, pressing Shift-Space while the debugger is active and paused displays the value of all visible symbols in the editor, using popup tooltips.
Other debugger improvements include better support for PEP 3134 chained exceptions, filtering out __name__ special names and other symbol types, hiding memory addresses, and viewing dictionaries in sorted order.
Improved Bookmarking (Wing Pro):
The bookmarks tool was redesigned to make it easier to use bookmarks to manage development tasks, by assigning categories, entering notes, and filtering bookmark display by category or text fragment. Bookmarks now track better across external file changes, and can be shared with other projects and users.
And Much More:
Wing 7 also introduces a new high-level configuration menu, magnified presentation mode, editor callouts for easier search and code navigation, new color palettes, a MATLAB keyboard personality, typeshed integration, updated and expanded documentation, and many other improvements.

New in Wing Pro 5.1.2-1 (Feb 26, 2015)

New in Wing Pro 5.1.1-1 (Feb 7, 2015)

New in Wing Pro 5.1.0-1 (Jan 23, 2015)

New in Wing Pro 5.1.0 Beta 2 (Jan 10, 2015)

Multi-process Debugging:
Wing Pro can now debug multiple processes at once. By default, Wing will accept multiple debug connections, showing a process selector wherever a stack selector is shown in the user interface, in addition to a thread selector if there are multiple threads in the debug process. The process selector groups processes into a process tree, showing the relationship between them regardless of how they were created or debug-enabled.
You can also ask Wing to automatically debug child processes. This is off by default since it can be confusing to new users, or unwanted in some code bases, but can be enabled with the Debugger > Processes > Debug Child Processes preference and the Debug/Execute > Debug Child Properties setting in Project Properties.
Wing can automatically debug child processes created with the multiprocessing module, with os.fork() (on Posix platforms) or whenever a process is started using sys.executable. In other cases, wingdbstub can be used to start debugging in the child process.
Additional features for debug process control are available in the Processes sub-menu of the Debug menu and the Debugger > Processes preferences group.
More information on multi-process debugging can be found in the Wing IDE Manual in Wing's Help menu, in the Multi-Process Debugging section of the Debugger chapter.
Improved Python Shell and Debug Probe:
The Python Shell and Debug Probe now syntax highlight code, as in the editor. The shells now also show data value tooltips when the mouse hovers over symbols.

Support for Django 1.7 and Django running on Python 3
