    Hello community,

    I haven't started getting into the source tree for dev yet--I'm just starting to use it. (the 4.9.8.10 as of this writing) I'm rather impressed at the gdb capabilities.

    There are a couple things I feel would be great additions to the software, although I do not know how complex they would be to implement..

    The first is a "goto this function" feature where we could highlight a function and open the file with the function. in one controversial "enterprise" IDE in particular (which you can deduce I'm sure) there is an option titled "Find Object References" where you can look for a named type (like a "record", or page) and it will list out all the instances of that object.

    Secondly Subversion is becoming what I now recommend to several houses for their source control. It seems that it would not take too much effort to include support for svn along with cvs. I almost have it working, svn does not like the -i passed to the program; so I could either change svn to include a dummy -i parameter or go the distance and add the functionality to dev-c++

    Please let me say that I understand the open-source movement and know everyone is working regular jobs. I too am doing the same with a different project currently but perhaps I will have time to help implement these features if they (for whatever reason) can not fit in with your list of priority fixes.

    Thanks for making your product a rather stable beast for the work it does. I look forward to updates :)

      svn has already been requested many times - if you go to RFE page. The other ones just put them on the RFE list (if they don't exist yet), and someone will respond eventually.
