Hello,

> Anyone from FlashDevelop here to give us more info on this?

Someone from FD is here - following the thread with interest.


ABOUT MONO

The command line applications work fine with mono on Linux and OSX,
but the main application doesn't even run with mono on Windows... The
problems come from the GUI toolkit (WindowsForms) and the Scintilla
editor. Solving them would probably require a somewhat massive work to
switch to GTK# and to explore the possibility to integrate the Linux &
OSX (X11) versions of Scintilla.

But maybe Nick (which uses FlashDevelop on an Intel-Mac) will be able
to provide interesting information about this question ;)


ABOUT ASDT

I read lots of discussions about grammars & error recovery problems...
Maybe a developper willing to continue asdt/hxdt should dig into
FlashDevelop code. We don't use any grammar: a custom & very tolerant
parser is used to generate the "DOM". Then the completion autodetects
it's context in a loose heuristic way.

Actually, we are precisely missing a real grammar to provide a
realtime syntax checking.

Also FYI we are working on a new version of FlashDevelop, with a brand
new which can build the DOM of AS2, AS3 and haXe classes (without the
inference goodness).
