I'm starting to wade into helping get the C/C++ module up and running on Apache Netbeans. As a result, I have quick project question for the more "senior" folks on this group. Or anyone else who cares to comment. 8-)
I would like to propose that we drop support for the SunStudio tools (i.e. compiler and debugger, etc.). The reason is because it makes porting more difficult. In addition, it doesn't really make sense for a project like Apache Netbeans to carry all this technical debt that it incurs for which no one really is going to support. So what are the collective thoughts and opinions about dropping SunStudio support in Apache Netbeans? The assumption here is that GDB and friends would continue to work and be supported. -brad w.
