Hi, Prompted by a chance tweet, I have placed an issue in the JetBrains' tracker floating the idea of a Chapel plugin for the CLion IDE.
https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/CPP-5650 Clearly JetBrains are not going to finance development of a plugin, but if there was some effort from the Chapel community, I am sure they would be very supportive. Plugin development is in Kotlin or Java. Projects have to be CMake driven. If there is no interest, no worries. However if there is interest in propagating interest in using Chapel, then having an IDE story is more or less essential in today's programming world. Yes I know us hardened oldies think Emacs is the one true editor (I know there are the renegades who like VIM, SublimeText, Ed,…), but if you ever get to use a good IDE, you tend to write code a lot quicker. The more important think though is not the people currently writing Chapel code, it is trying to get new people to use Chapel. They will assume an IDE is available. If there isn't then they are unlikely to use the languages. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:[email protected] 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: [email protected] London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
