October 29, 2004 IDDE WishList | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Hi Does such a thing as a wishlist exist for IDDE? If so top of mine is Code Completion, IDDE editor is ok Synax Highlighting auto indent, but it would be nice to have code completion especially when working with Win32API stuff something like the OW editor or Borland C++ Builder or Delphi would be excellent, at the moment I am using a separate editor for writing code which kind of defeats the object of an IDE don't you think? Any chance Walter :) Cheers |

Why recreate the wheel? I've been using the Eclipse CDT IDDE in the unmanaged project mode (hand crafted makefiles, bascially), and it works pretty well. I wish I had the time to devote to making managed project mode operational. There's also a good possibility that the existing GNU make code could be reused if developers were going to use GNU make instead of the CD-ROM's smake or the free version's make.
There's also a minor issue with debugging: getting one to work. There are two options. First, hack GNU's binutils to read/write OMF and CV4 (hint: look for cvinfo.h in google), then recompile gdb to use the OMF/CV4 target. Second option is to interface to WINDBG, aka "windbag", which works surprisingly well, despite issues with structure/class symbol names generated by DMC.

DM IDDE does a splendid job of everything apart from it seems autocomplete, even OW has this feature, shame their Resource editor is hosed, and their editor uses vix extended vi, shame the source code to IDDE could not be opened up many more enhancements could be made and it would allow Walter to concentrate on his new Baby D I wish I had the time to devote to making managed project > mode operational.

I wish I had the time to fiddle with hand made makes :) this method does not makie for productive programming > > There's also a minor issue with debugging: getting one to work.

Posted in reply to Scott Michel | As a matter of interest where can the IDDE CDT plugin be found? I have searched the Eclipse site without luck
Cheers
