It can't work with any filesystem besides NTFS and (ex)FAT, it's stuck with weird character encodings when literally everything else is UTF-8. With WSL it's somewhat bearable but after a couple days I just can't stand the many terrible systematic design mistakes. Would really like to try Visual Studio, but I can't bring myself to work using Windows. The same IDE for them was literally useless for anything besides launching the game on the device. The work-around was to locate the type declaration and typecast a pointer to the object as whatever type was defined just before the actual type.īut, hey. It would display each variable reinterpret-cast as the type that was declared next after the actual type of the object. If you determined you needed to debug on of those, the work-around was to find some function in a different file that called into the needed file, place a breakpoint in that function then step into the needed file.įor one release it had an off-by-one error in the variable watch window. That meant there were source files you simply could not open. On top of that, it somehow frequently failed to correctly parse these simple strings and some listing would randomly be garbage characters.
So, if your dev path was too long you couldn’t distinguish between files when you want to open one. It would list those paths in a small, fixed-size GUI window. Instead of a project file, it just parsed the linker file (which you had to write by hand) in order to determine which cpp files were used and where they were located. The worst I’ve ever used is no longer availabile or relevant: the Windows IDE for N64 development.
