Doing c++ in cloud9, the todo

rikarends edited this page Oct 31, 2010 · 4 revisions

For Cloud9 to work nicely for C++ we need atleast the following things

Step 1

  • Run configuration should get 'execute arbitrary file'

  • The console output should make gcc errors/issues clickable (already nearly works)

  • The console should be virtual viewport to deal with large compile error lists

  • C++ filetypes (.c,cpp,h,hpp) need to be supported and recognised

  • C++ syntax highlighter file (copy from JS, add #define and yr almost there)

Step 2

  • We need a C++ type/declaration parser for 'jump to definition' functionality

  • support for GDB to launch a process and step/trace/view

  • Autocomplete via type info
