I'm starting intellisense for leds.
(the code browser, although not prety,
it's starting to be good enought - mind you, still alpha quality)

You know what's gonna be interesting about it?
We do not know what is provided by which import!
It's going to be crazy!
on large applications one might have to browse a few hundread
source files before figuring out what is needed!
I mean: module myApp.myModuleA might supply class B.
And, of course, we might get lost on a tree of import
dependencies before getting to the requested definition...

Also: I created module dui.All.
This is not a good idea (not too bad on D and for DUI).
maybe the eclipse feature "organize imports" should
also be priority 1(?)

Anyway, as I do 99% OO I'm gonna do it first for
1 module, 1 class, same name.

hmmm... maybe leds could have a project flag "strict OO"
to speed up some of the searches.

anyone interested on creating a "strict OO" version of phobos? let me know where it is ;)

please fill free to contribute to leds
(from web page grammar corrections to requests to ideas to code).

About leds:
the first goal is to make it feature rich
(I guess intellisense is the last one for now),
then user configurable,
then look good,
then beta quality.

this is against the proven
"if you can't make it good at least make it look good"...
but I need help to make it look good (just look at my web pages...).

I wish I could help, but there's no windows version ;(.  Not that I have much time to help.

PS - Please put the leds homepage or your homepage on your D newsgroup footer.

I'm just waiting for the inclusion of recls into phobos.
(now that I think of it the combo box is broken on the windows
version of DUI...)

Do you think we could convince Walter to make independent releases for dmd and phobos?

I don't know if people realizes that time is really the single most valueable thing in life.

you mean http://leds.sourceforge.net ?

every time I put an URL here I get a boost on the hits count.
and there is really nothing new on leds... since the last reference.
I hate waisting people time (see previous note)

Fine, it's just that every time some talks about something on their webpage, I have to either go to the D page and look it up, go through my bookmarks, or try to remember the name - to make sure what I'm saying is actually correct (ie leds doesn't support windows yet).

It's coming in v0.77. It's all ready, but Walter needs to update his Linux machine in order to compile it. (Though you didn't hear it from me!!)

I do!

I think it's better to have it on the signature, although I always forget to include mine. =P
