To Do

Ideas that have yet to be implemented.


Note that some of these may never be implemented but they are still listed here as a reminder.

  • Be able to update a library rather than just create libraries.
  • Support the concept of a 'Plugin' block of code.
    version (build) pragma(plugin, <tool>[,delim=xxx],[, <parms>] ) { [body] }
    
    This block would be replaced by the stdout data of calling 'tool <params>' and sending it the content of <body> via stdin.
  • Support limited preprocessor capability.
    Something like pragma(macro, <preprocessor commands>); and replacing source text of the form @{tokenname}@ with the value of the token.
