The clunk you just heard is my jaw bouncing on the floor <G> NICE!!!!!
It would be very nice to have such a debugging feature. Too bad it's
hardcoded into a very bug GUI system.
Yes, heaven forbid Ary spends his time adding and improving features
when he should be building a new editor from the ground up.
In all seriousness, I hate IDEs because they are big, slow, and waste
vast tracts of prime monitor space. But I'm willing to put up with that
for Descent's compile-time view and (hopefully soon) compile-time debugging.
If I could get that in a super fast, light programming editor, I'd use
that instead. But I can't.
Although it is annoying when I'm out and about on my little netbook and
can't use Eclipse. C'est la vie.
Another problem with Descent is that it's kind of buggy (yes, I know
it). But most of the bugs are because of errors in the semantic analysis
ported from DMD's front end. So, for example, some template
instantiations fail when they shouldn't.
maybe we should think about extending dmd itselfe to give you
and runtime interface to the compile which can be used for
features like that - any ideas?
