The CDT Fall Summit will be held
again this year in Ottawa at QNX headquarters from Sept 19-21.
To register, please send me, Doug Schaefer, dschaefer@xxxxxxx, an e-mail. There is no
cost to attend, lunches will be provided, and we’ll do another social night
like we did last year sponsored by the fine people at
QNX.
The theme for the conference is:
“Here we Grow!”, or maybe not. I’ll have to get the QNX marketing guys to come
up with something flashy. The focus of the summit will be technical as we look
at the features we plan on adding to the CDT for CDT 4.0 and beyond to meet
the needs of our growing community. There’s lots going on in the CDT and we
need to make sure we co-ordinate activity and maintain the integrity of the
architecture.
Here is a quick agenda to get a
feel for what we will be discussing:
-
CDT
Core
o
Indexing strategies (offline,
remote, EFS)
o
CModel future (can we move it to
use the DOM parser?)
-
CDT
UI
o
Replacing the C/C++ Projects View
with the Common Navigator/Project Explorer
o
CDT Editor
Enhancements
-
CDT
Build
o
The state of the Managed Build
System (VS killer yet?)
o
The new Project Model teaching the
Core about build settings
-
CDT
Debug
o
Adopting the flexibile
hierarchy
o
Meeting the needs of embedded
developers
-
Multi-Language
o
How I built a C# plugin in my
spare time
o
The Photran
experience
Of course, we can add more if
people propose to talk about more. Feel free to send me any ideas you have and
volunteer to contribute to any of these as well.
QNX is located at 175 Terence Matthews
Cres in the city formally known as Kanata (now a suburb of the city of Ottawa). There are a
number of hotels in Kanata, with the Holiday Inn Select being the
most popular from last year. If anyone has suggestions or queries, please feel
free to discuss on the list.
See you there, or here, I
guess J.
