dalocogamer Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I havn't the slightest clue how to begin to search for this. So I am posting any ways. If you know where please share. I am looking to program a script with a program outside of SL. At times I feel like scripting immediatly and dont want to wait. Is there a program outside of SL that you can write and test to find errors before loading in SL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikka Luik Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Quite a few, check the wiki Here Personally I use LSLEditor as its updated pretty often Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innula Zenovka Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Yeah. The two I would recommend are LSLEditor or the LSLForge plugin for Eclipse. They will both let you check your code to see if it should compile in SL. Of the two, I think LSLEditor is probably the best to start with, unless you have something very ambitious planned. I am open to correction here, but I can't really see why I would need to use LSLForge, rather than LSLEditor, unless it was because I was part of a large, collaborative project. It's very good, but it seems to me a bit like overkill for most of the stuff I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterCanessa Oh Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 These conversations come around fairly often and are always worth the update. To my mind at least it's good to know what 'best practice' is amongst everyone. FWIW I use the Eclipse plugin because I use Eclipse for developing in other languages and, for instance, if I'm working on a system with an LSL front-end and a PHP/Python back-end it's nice to have them within the same IDE. Horses for courses - a lot of what you want to use for LSL will depend on your other programming experience and tools. LSL Editor is probably the neatest if starting from scratch.

Better than that, there's a whole web page with detailed information in the wiki >>> http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LSL_Alternate_Editors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steph Arnott Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Be aware a script editor may run the code but inworld it fails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
