Mono C#

<< < (3/3)

Morphius Faydal:
I'd think at that point, it might gain some of the more unfortunate feature of Eclipse (the horrible bloated slowness), if Code::Blocks were to start adding support for languages left and right.  Even adding C# would be something that the head devs would want to look at long and hard before doing.  Keeping the language support at C and C++ keeps the scope of the program focussed and keep it a well written, fast little IDE, again unlike Eclipse.

I have never tried NetBeans, so I didn't know it was as fat and bloated as Eclipse.  Does Sun Studio support Java? Or is it a C/C++ only IDE?

Maybe for C#, a new project is required.  I was thinking about that, too, last night.  How difficult would it be to take the base Code::Blocks source, and create a dedicated fork for Mono only?  Code::Sharp or something? :)

courage:

You are right. Keeping the language support scope can keep it a well written, fast little IDE.
But I think the reason of the bloat of Eclipse is because Eclipse is designed as a Platform(ex. for RCP),
but Code::Blocks isn't.  :)

Since Code::Blocks is designed to a plug-in base IDE, let Code::Blocks could keep flexible.
In my humble opinion, I think we should not too worry about it.  :)
