EDBMgr - let's extend it |

ccr Asar GmbH | hello,
since tim is really busy and over the years there are quite a lot of requests, why can't we ... (hopefully he is not too upset). it takes a project in github, compilerversions since delphi 7 (i would suggest - i only have 2010 and xe2) and some coordination. i could do this with a public accessible mantis-bugtracker ... who is in? i had the feeling more than 50% of the stuff is not too difficult to implement. of course we should wait for tim to give the nod ...

David Cornelius Cornelius Concepts | Interesting, but it would probably work better to contribute code
snippets and let Tim remain in control of the source. Sure, we all get the source and can certainly modify it as we need for our own use, but there may be future considerations Tim has that we don't see and our useful addition may create a hurdle down the road. Having said that, I'm in to whatever extent makes sense. The greater limiting factor for me is the time. It's SOOOO much easier to just make a suggestion and see it implemented in a future version! -- David Cornelius Cornelius Concepts On 08/27/2012 12:17 PM, ccr wrote: > hello, > since tim is really busy and over the years there are quite a lot of requests, why can't we ...

<< since tim is really busy and over the years there are quite a lot of requests, why can't we ... (hopefully he is not too upset). >> The problem with these types of situations is that it's very easy to lose control over the quality and scope of the code. Remember, we're not doing open-source here and customers expect a certain level of quality and reliability. I'm trying to come up with a solution to my lack of time, but so far there really aren't any good solutions. The best thing everyone can do is to help promote ElevateDB and Elevate Web Builder as much as possible. Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |

Unfortunately, that would probably mean a total rewrite of EDBManager, but it would allow others to contribute and remove the problem of it being your fault when the addins don't work Roy Lambert |

The one good thing is that EWB IDE enhancements can apply to EDB Manager, and vice-versa. For example, parentheses-matching is in EWB, but not EDB (yet).
