- Walter Bright (3/13) Jul 08 2008 I think it's one of those things that is build it and see what happens.
I have been working on an add-in for VS 2005 that integrates DMC++ into the IDE, allowing VC++ projects to be automatically translated, compiled and linked using the Digital Mars tools. Is this of any interest to people on here? I am weighing up how much more effort I put into it to support some missing VC features, allow targeting of more than just Win32, writing some proper docs, etc... .. or have I re-invented a wheel? I couldn't find any VS add-ins for DMC available...

I updated Scooter's Eclipse plugin to work with ver 3.1.1, but there were no takers on that. I think most DMC++ users are happy with the supplied IDE. I did the Eclipse plugin to avoid needing to purchase any MS licenses so that may also be an issue for others as well.

Right now it is just sitting on my PC. I can email it to you. Maybe Walter would put a copy on the DM site? Walter, what say ye? Remember it is really old. I am trying to find time to update it for CDT 5.0, which would be sweet! AndyC
