SunflowerEditorC++

Using SunflowerEditor, you can see values in your C++ code in realtime. Example:

SunflowerEditor transforms your C++ code with libclang and compiles it with cppyy. Annotations are then sent to VSCode with zmq as your code runs! It currently supports seeing the values of printfs inline for a single file, but it is extremely extensible!

Contributions extremely welcome! Talk to us in the Discord

The intention is to be a C++ version of SunflowerEditor

Installation and Tutorial

pip install cppyy
brew install llvm@14

and

cd sunflowereditor-vscode
yarn add zeromq electron-rebuild
yarn electron-rebuild -v 19.0.17 zeromq
yarn install

Then start the extension by opening sunflowereditor-vscode in VSCode, and clicking run. In that editor, open SunflowerEditorTesting.cpp to see the annotations.

Finally, edit llvmDir on line 8 of main.py to match your installation and run with python3 main.py. (Running with Jupyter is recommended, however). You should see realtime annotations as in the example image above. You may also have to change .dylib to .so depending on your platform.

You can edit SunflowerEditorTesting.cpp, and rerun the following cell to recompile and rerun the C++!

_, runtimeTest = defineInNewNs(f"""
  {includeFile(editorRuntimeDir, "SunflowerEditorTesting.cpp", runtimeNsName=editorRuntimeNsName, transform=True)}
""")
runtimeTest.doStuff()
for i in range(100):
  runtimeTest.doStuff2()
  time.sleep(0.05)
