Two (ok, maybe three) IDE related ideas:
1. integration of the profiler (use profilers output to directly jump to
related sections in the code, mark time-intensive sections, stuff like
that)
2. possibility to show assembly code from (de-)compiled executable
inline in source so it's easier for developers who don't know much
assembly language to understand how much machine code is generated by
their code, possibly creating bottlenecks from harmless-looking
statements etc.
3. Any work on IDEs should be for cross-platform IDEs, maybe eclipse DDT
or codeblocks. Or maybe somebody could port D-IDE (d-ide.sf.net), which
is pretty good as far as I know, to mono so it can be used on other
platforms than windows?
Wouldn't it be better to use a platform independent GUI library.
When starting from scratch - certainly.
But if D-IDE should be improved/ported - which currently uses .Net -
mono is probably the best choice (better than rewriting it completely).
Or do you think it should be ported to Qyoto (Qt for C#) or GTK# or
something like that for a more native look and feel?
Sorry, I assumed it was written in D, don't why I got that from.
And if some other IDE should be improved (probably it should be
discussed what specific IDE this should be anyway) then *please* improve
a cross-platform IDE like eclipse DDT or codeblocks (and not, e.g.
Visual D or Posedion, because those are only available on Windows anyway).
Something else to consider: For improvements-of-existing-IDEs the
current IDE developers should probably be involved as mentors.
Cheers,
- Daniel
