Oh dear.

OpenOCD needs amazing developers to clean up all the crappy code.

OpenOCD does NOT need a rewrite in C++.

Please don't waste time on this frankly ridiculous idea, but if you
have time to contribute, then please help clean up the mess instead.


Or you can of course start a new project. That's really what it will
be, if you want to accomplish the same thing as OpenOCD does, but
with all new internal structure and in a new programming language. If
you want to do that I think you should, but I think it's important to
recognize that it is a new, separate, project.

It will take you a hell of a lot more than a few months to finish
that project. I guess three to five years, full time. If you have
any time to contribute to open source embedded debugging, please
don't waste it on a rewrite.


You write that the SWD work is done. I didn't follow the patch
situation in Gerrit. I suspect that careful review could find
many things which could be improved in your commits to already
in those commits work toward your goal of better internal structure.
Maybe others have pointed them out already and you've done lots of
such changes - I didn't look at all.
