D support instead of Java

jonaspm · Post by **jonaspm** » Wed Aug 28, 2013 12:23 am

Hello jerome and all the Ecere dev team

forum users too!

I see that Java support is planned (saw it on the Roadmap), but doesn't D support is better than Java's ?

I think this because Java is not a compiled language unlike eC and D (which D is more C like than Java)

¿What do you think of this?

Thanks in advance! just an idea

Hi Jonas,

Java is much more used/popular than D, and I sometimes have to deal with it

In theory the Ecere IDE is meant to support any and all languages, basic Java support is just one of the next step in that direction.

Regards,

Jerome

Hey Jonas!

Glad to see you're still around.
Have you been pulling from the GitHub repo as well?
Sorry I've been dragging this for so long...
Been fixing improving the IDE and compiler a lot recently.

How about your eC/Ecere projects?

Anything worth mentioning/sharing with our small community?

well, i haven't had time to play with Ecere, i'm having a lot of homework and exams.
However i have been studying a book of C to understand how this works.
Also yes, i have some projects in mind but once i master the concepts and syntax... they will fly!

I didn't check GitHub but some days ago i created my account. i can support with some fixes later right?

And don't worry about the time it has taken to release the new version, it is much better to make a release with less bugs

btw, i see on GitHub that there is a pull request

Hi Jonas

Glad to see you around. Thanks for the great feedback.

It hasn't actually been officially released yet, this is still a pre-release, though I hope to have the release ready in the next few days... Please let me know if you encounter any issue with this pre-release so I can fix them ASAP!

Thanks,

-Jerome
