Hi!
First of all: Thanks for the big bouquet of flowers :D
Glad to hear tha you like it and don't just say: "Bah, go away" :D

Glad I found some open ears, eyes and minds :D
The question: How?
I mean, I do want to share the code (I suppose I get some credit for that :lol: ), but how can/should we do it? What's your normal procedure? Sourceforge, or just a shared zip?
Currently I'm working with VC++ 7.1 on it. I want to get some stuff working (like loading a project) before I put the code somewhere. I hope this doesn't take too long. Then, some more widgets could be added. I'd be willing to do that and maintain the main code base, as I started it and the code sometimes is very "hackerish" (I guess this is normal for such a project, but anyway). Implementing it as a plugin is something I would love to give into trusting hands, as learning about the SDK and changing the code should be done by someone who knows what he's doing. I'm willing to have a look at it, but I guess I won't be much help. Maybe it's possible to have it in two versions: One as a plugin and one as a standalone...
Anyway, tell me what you think would be best. Reach me via mail if needed or if this is going off-topic.

Well, I meant I reviewed it for personal purpose. I read about it some time ago and tried it out. But as I'm mainly working with VC++ on the job, I had no chance to run it to its full extend. Maybe I'll try and use it with the VC compiler here one day, but currently we're on a project and my coworkers wouldn't like skipping the IDE :D

Hi upCASE!
Glad to see your RADtool is growing just fine! I hope you guys can reach an agreement that speeds up both the plugin interface and the frame editor development - maybe making upCASE's code also available in this site would help to gather volunteers?
Hope to meet ya again any time soon! Maybe in the wxForum? ;)

hmm. that is not including me :cry: I think I just have to try :lol:
rickg22:
Well, an idea is to send us the zip file or publishing it in a webpage so we can d/l it - or you could host it at sourceforge, that's not a bad idea either :)
However you please. Just make the code available. Later we'll deal how to re-distribute it.

We can put it in the upcoming "contrib" folder, to signify that it's a work-in-progress.

That's what I want to hear :). I agree that you should be the maintainer. You know it better than any other ;).

I think it would be better to make it a custom editor, registered for XRC files (for example). I haven't looked at your code, but to implement a custom editor in C::B, you just inherit from EditorBase (which inherits from wxMDIChildFrame and when we ditch MDI it will inherit from wxPanel). Unless you are doing magic stuff in your initialization code, I believe it should be pretty easy to embed you editor in C::B :D

We can add the code in CVS and you can work from there. This way more people might want to join you :D
And don't forget the motto of open source: release-early, release-often ;)
Yiannis.
