Not all IDEs are so out of data. Netbeans is quite current (7.1). Eclipse is pretty close to the commonly available version as well. Have you tried building codelite from their sources? I may give it a try, just out of curiosity... ________________________________ From: O.

But why is codelite setup in editors/codelite and not in devel/codelite as other IDEs? By the way, do all IDEs supported by FreeBSD suffer from being outdated and aged eons? CodeLite 3.5 is at this very moment the most recent version and claims to provide a much better LLVM/CLANG support. Hope I can convince the maintainer by sending a PR ;-) > >> Oliver > >
