[cdt-dev] Request for feedback on planned improvements
|
Hello,
As you may know, I'm conducting a Google Summer of Code project to
improve the coding ergonomy of Eclipse CDT. The project is scheduled
for over 2 months and I'd like to spend this time as productively as
possible. I'd want to spend time on the features which would be the most
appreciated by the C++ community. I'd like to know what features would
you like to see in the new CDT and how you'd want them realized. Long
story short:
I really need the input from you!
So, if you are a C++ developer willing to give some suggestions, you are
more welcome. Firstly, please think how much time you'd like to devote
for me:
Less than 15 minutes?
On
the wiki page of my project, there's a small set of questions. You
can answer them (not necessarily all), add some random remarks and send
it all to me. It's just a few minutes and it will really help me get a
view on how people see CDT in the future.
More than 15 minutes?
I've
put
some effort to describe some ideas (both mine and found) on how to
improve the CDT code editor. However, to many problems there are
multiple solutions. People use the CDT for different purposes and in
different ways, so I need to figure out a solution which - ideally -
would suit everyone. That's why I need your feedback here very much.
It would be VERY helpful if you would check
my
list of ideas (those pages are meant to be discussion pages and
along description they contain some open questions to everyone) and try
to elaborate on how you'd want the improvement made. I'll be happy if
some constructive discussions arise there!
Just a while?
It is both simple and useful to just have a quick browse through
the
ideas and
rate the ideas according to their importance for you.
It's very easy and fast! You just need to:
- Log in to the wiki
- Edit the "Rating" section on a given idea
- Add a line in the form of:
2/5 --~~~~
Just substitute a number from 0/5 ("absolutely useless for me") to 5/5
("that's exactly what CDT needs"). The 4 tildes will expand to your
signature.
That's just a few keystrokes and clicks, but very valuable
information for me.
I'm really counting on you all!
Best regards,
