I don't agree. The lack of a good (online) package-system is the weakest
part. (debugging might be the second)
The real problem is man-power - finding someone that can give their full
attention to the task until it is complete (and hopefully on par with
debuggers like can be seen in Java development). With small open source
projects like FPC and Lazarus it is hard to find such dedicated
man-power, because most contributors actually have full time jobs, or
get bored and work on other areas they find more enjoyable.
It is fairly simple: my top priorities are now:
1: Fpmake/Fppkg
2: Fpdebug
3: Attributes / RTTI
I decided to work only on Fpmake and Fppkg. When that works, switch to
Fpdebug. And then the attributes.
I hope that someone else can pick up the attributes and RTTI work,
though. A lot is already happening in this regard.
And Fpdebug works fine. This is also something that others can help
with. Martin does most of the Lazarus-stuff and everything needed to
show variables and such. I'm working on the lower-level parts.
But, as Graeme said, all in my spare time.
Regards,
Joost
