1. Ring Notepad is updated to include some new styles and the Main File ToolBar
The idea of the Main File ToolBar is to determine the main file in the project When the project contains many source
code files
This way you can run the project ( Main File ) at any time while opening other files in the project without the need to
switch to the Main File to run the project.
To quickly use this feature
(Open the project main file)
Press Ctrl+Shift+M to set the current source code file as the main file
Open and modify other source code files in the project
To run the project (Main File) at any time press Ctrl+Shift+F5 (GUI) or Ctrl+Shift+D (Console)

2. The output window is updated to display the new lines correctly and contains the “Clear” button.

(3) The Ring Notepad is updated to quickly open and switch between large files while preparing the functions/classes
lists in the background.

New Functions
• Print2Str()
• ListAllFiles()
• SystemCmd()
1. The Print2Str() is a new function added to the StdLib
Example:
load "stdlib.ring"
world = "World!"
mystring = print2str("Hello, #{world} \nIn Year \n#{2000+17} \n")
see mystring + nl
Output:
Hello, World!
In Year
2017
aList = sort(aList)
see aList
Example:
load "stdlib.ring"
see listallfiles("b:/ring/ringlibs/weblib","") # All Files
Output:
SystemCmd: whoami =====

import System.Web
func main
Table
{
style = stylewidth("100%") + stylegradient(26)
TR
{
style = stylewidth("100%") + stylegradient(24)
TD { text("Name " ) }
TD { text("Age" ) }
TD { text("Country" ) }
TD { text("Job" ) }
TD { text("Company" ) }
}
for x = 1 to 100
TR
{
TD { text("Test" ) }
TD { text("30" ) }
TD { text("Egypt" ) }
TD { text("Sales" ) }
TD { text("Future" ) }
}
next
}
write("report.html",mypage.output())
Using this feature we can create reports quickly using WebLib & GUILib together
Example:
load "stdlib.ring"
load "weblib.ring"
load "guilib.ring"
import System.Web
import System.GUI
new qApp {
open_window(:CustomersReportController)
exec()
}
class CustomersReportController
func Start
CreateReport()
func CreateReport
mypage = new HtmlPage {
h1 { text("Customers Report") }
Table
{
style = stylewidth("100%") + stylegradient(4)
TR
{
TD { WIDTH="10%"
text("Customers Count : " ) }
TD { text (100) }
}
}
Table
{
style = stylewidth("100%") + stylegradient(26)
TR
{
style = stylewidth("100%") +
stylegradient(24)
TD { text("Name " ) }
TD { text("Age" ) }
TD { text("Country" ) }
TD { text("Job" ) }
TD { text("Company" ) }
}
for x = 1 to 100
TR
{
TD { text("Test" ) }
TD { text("30" ) }
TD { text("Egypt" ) }
TD { text("Sales" ) }
TD { text("Future" ) }
}
next
}
}
write("report.html",mypage.output())
func PrintEvent
printer1 = new qPrinter(0) {
setoutputformat(1)
setoutputfilename("report.pdf")
}
oView {
web.print(printer1)
web.show()
}
system ("report.pdf")
class CustomersReportView

The next example from the Form Designer source code, Open the Window Flags window using the
open_windowInPackages() function.
We determine the class name “WindowFlagsController” and the packages name.
The Window Flags window uses the FormDesigner and System.GUI packages.
open_windowInPackages(:WindowFlagsController,[
"formdesigner",
"System.GUI"
])
Ring 1.5 comes with RingFreeGLUT extension to support the FreeGLUT library
