The first thing to do is to check your "My Documents" folder for a file with the extension .sav or .sv*, where * represents a number. If such a file exists, it contains your code, simply open it back up in a text editor. There may be other ways of retrieving your file, but try that first.

The Turing IDE crashes pretty frequently, so if you're going to do your work in it, it's best to save frequently. You can actually crash it by double-clicking the lower right part of the window after clearing a line of text from the program. Save early, save often.

This is off-topic, but why does the log file say the JVM version and stuff? I didn't know that Turing relied on Java or something.

Anyone who uses turing has experienced this, one time we were doing a coding assignement in class and this happened to my friend and the teacher marked him on basically the screenshot of code that was left.

Aucatly they more just got board with it and gave up when there contract ran out.

As debatle as the quality of turing maybe it did not have a large part in holtsoft going out of business. It's also not realy fair to say they went bankrupt, as it is more of the case that every one working there just moved on to other things.


Edit: I should also add that some times your code can cause the Turing IDE to crash, and if you keep getting theses errors just for one program and not others then you likey are cuasing it.

You would think Holt Software wasn't making a lot of money. Even if every board bought the newest version when it came out (my school still has 4.0.5 installed)

I was thinking the same thing as I looked over the crash details. Isn't the Turing IDE / compiler was coded in C?

The Turing and RTP (Ready to program) IDEs are aucatly the same program give or take with a few bits fliped so it inlcudes a JVM to run RTP stuff (or at least has the settings and debug information for the JVM). I blive Turing and the IDE where made in Visual C++.
