:: Protean IDE Discussion Forum
Protean IDE is a legacy application which I'm no longer supporting. However, I still want the application and its source to be available to all. It is provided here for any one to use.
IMPORTANT VISTA / WINDOWS 7 - NOTEPlease note that Protean IDE crashes under Windows Vista/Windows 7 due to an incompatibility with a third party control that Protean used. The menu system in Protean is broken when using Aero, if you launch Protean directly under Vista/Window 7 and access a menu the application will crash and you will have to open task manager and manually terminate the process.
If you want to use Protean under Vista or Windows 7: First install the application as normal, then browse to the folder where you have installed Protean. Right click the Protean.exe file and select Properties. Under the Compatibility tab select "Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows XP (Service Pack 3)" then turn on the "Disable desktop composition" and "Run this program as an administrator" options.
Since there is a work around for anyone still using Protean, we will not be fixing this issue. Protean is very old and no longer supported.
Software RequirementsProtean explicitely requires version 1.1 of the .NET platform to run on a client machine. You can download these here if you do not already have them.
- Microsoft .NET 1.1
- Internet Explorer 5.01+
In addition to this Protean IDE requires a faily meaty PC to run well.
System Requirements:- Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1+ installed. (See above).
- Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 or later
- 256Mb+ of RAM.
- 500Mhz 100% windows compatible Processor.
- Microsoft Windows 2000 (Latest service packs REQUIRED), Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows 98 or Windows ME. (Windows Vista/Windows7 supported under compatibility).
- For Blitz Basic support, Protean requires a registered version of Blitz Basic. Protean does not work fully with the Demo version of Blitz Basic.
- Recommended resolution of 1024x768 or above.
Downloads:This is the final version of Protean compiled by me. V1.4, it is completely free for all to download. This version can be used with all versions of Blitz Classic (not max). So enjoy!

The full Protean source code! Please read the licence before making modifications or distributing works based on the source. There is a readme file in the archive that I highly advise you read, as it contains information about compiling Protean, and where to go from here.
