Having just spent a couple of weeks suffering at the hands of CodeWarrior 9.2, I can but wonder.. is this latest version of PalmOne's development environment going to be as horrendous as all of the others ?I have *never* used a development environment as (...thinks of a non-agressive term..) UNFINISHED as CodeWarrior 9.2.
It crashes all over the place, the Simulator is a farce, you can still create .prc files which immediately crash a Palm device (and will continue to cause General Exceptions immediately after soft-reseting a device)...
It's terrible. Every little aspect of the software is a disaster. WHY do I have to tell that nasty little Search-in-files window to dock itself EVERY time I load up my projects ?
WHY does the debugger toggle between the source-code-with-environment screen to the Found-in-files screen, if you've left one of these open ? Hit F10, it runs one line of code, shows you the variables. Hit F10 again, it runs another line of code, and shows you, in the Found-in-files screen where the cursor is now. F10 again, and you're back to the previous window.
Seriously, PalmOne needs to get some decent programmers, fix some of their ridiculous bugs, or just call it a day.
