Hi everyone,
It may sounds a bit annoying because I already was asking
everywhere in
the IRC channels but still had no success -
Is there anyone who wants to be my GSoC mentor for the Mono-D
project?
In the case you don't know what Mono-D is all about:
It's about creating a D language binding for MonoDevelop. (
http://monodevelop.com/**Screenshots
<http://monodevelop.com/Screenshots>)
There are couple of things that are already implemented -
like a
relatively nice but fast code completion, build support,
small refactoring
operations like they can be used in every modern IDE and few
other things
which will make application development with D a lot easier -
especially
for D newbies.
(Debugging is also available via gdb on Linux systems - so
yeah, why not?
:))
The main road map for this summer of code is available under
https://github.com/aBothe/**Mono-D/blob/master/**MonoDevelop.DBinding/**
Remaining%20features.txt<https://github.com/aBothe/Mono-D/blob/master/MonoDevelop.DBinding/Remaining%20features.txt>
Surely debugging support on platforms other than linux is much
more
important than any of these things you have listed. These
things may be
nice, but absolutely unnecessary. Integrated debugging is a
must.
Debugging is great with VisualD in Windows. It's about the only
thing
VisualD does really well yet, although the rest of the
experience is
starting to come together. Needs a lot more polish in general.
I actually found myself using Mono-D for the nice completion and
VisualD for debugging, which is a total pain and probably more
effort than its worth :)
