The CB Plug-ins that Imagecraft wrote to run under Code::Blocks; are they required by GPL to release them in source-code? Or does the Code::Blocks GPL have the Linking Exception that permits non-GPL plugins?
Writing binary plugins for C::B is explicitly allowed.
To whom would you like ImageCraft to tell what?
If they modify the core of the C::B IDE (alias SDK) I'd say it's worth to let us know what they changed and why because it might be for interest to others, too.
The ImageCraft IDE is specific to the ICC compilers only. It is not a branch of CB. It is not for generalized use. And it is in no way a competitor of CB.
From this thread I had the understanding that ImageCraft uses a version of C::B which they have heavily modified. What I see on the Webpage is another IDE where I am not sure if this is C::B based, or not. However, if they sell the C::B IDE in their packages then it's well hidden for the moment which surely is suspicious. If it's not ready, then this is just fine, but I read in this forum thread that there are obviously users around that use this IDE and ask for support. So I would welcome some clarification at least, don't you think?
