Thanks Eran for a really great IDE!

In a couple of recent posts I have made suggestions for areas of CL that I think would improve it. These were small things that I had got used to previously using Qt Creator and Eclipse but as was recently pointed out by Peteh here http://codelite.org/forum/viewtopic.php ... 1&start=10 if there is something that I really want then I should implement it myself . I only wish that I could :)

However it did make me remember how many fantastic features there are in CL. It is by far my favourite IDE, especially as it sits nicely between something a bit too simplistic like Gedit or Kate and something slow and over-bloated like Eclipse.

So what are my favourite bits? Hmm, its hard to list them all but here goes:
  • Eran's fast response to user problems no matter how trivial
  • Fast, responsive, lightweight IDE but with all the features that are really needed
  • 'Just works' out of the box on both Linux and Windows
  • Code completion
  • Well integrated and capable visual development with WxCrafter
  • Excellent refactoring (I've done a lot :oops: and haven't had a problem yet!)
  • Super-slick integration with GDB
  • Good integration with SVN
  • Good integration with UnitTest++
  • Good integration with cppcheck
So thanks for a really great tool and really great (free!!) support. I would encourage everyone to register their copy of WxCrafter to ensure the continued development of both tools.

I would also like to see debug log with or without a console, this makes searching for particular debug message easier, but its not a major issue, simple enhancement and I can live without it :)

+1 for thanking eranif, but do not forget to thank DavidGH too. They together made this amazing IDE possible :)

Thank you for the kind wards!
