RE: [cobol-dev] COBOL out of Interest
|
Hello,
We have been working on our own version of the COBOL editor for some time. We publish the source with each official release. I don't know quite how to proceed from this point. The editor is all we really use and that has diverged somewhat from the last set of source we picked up. If any other part breaks when we move up a level we just turn it off. I suspect we will keep down this path unless the COBOL project is taken seriously by the Eclipse foundation.
Here is a link to our source:

Subject: [cobol-dev] COBOL out of Interest
Hello all,
haven't heard of you for a long time! Therefore I come to the
conclusion, that you aren't interested in the Cobol-IDE any longer. No
wonder, because there has never been a working version of this software
since I joined the mailing list in 2003. The original programmers
either did not do what they promised or did so and now hide their code
somewhere. Also the commiters had a hard time in finding something to
offer to the public. Some advisers influenced the project, which might
be a reason for what we have now: nothing works here with COBOL and
Eclipse. On the other hand I know of and have heard of
COBOL-Eclipse-plugins in operation. Starting from the scratch was never
effectively possible here, because there was no initial version to start
with. Maybe the problem lies in the column orientation of a widely used
COBOL dialect. I myself did my work and have a working COBOL editor and
navigator now
http://cococo.de/Context_IT_GmbH/index.jsp?content=elbe
and I'd be interested in a feedback, if you take a look at it.
Greetings,
Jens
