Therefore, as a developer who is used to utilize and likes great IDEs like Eclipse and Visual Studio (Eclipse is absolutely #1 for me with regard to coding!), I have decided to write a new editor for MapBasic to boost developer productivity. To see that, look at the older versions of MapBasic, say 10 years ago, and unfortunately you will see no improvements for developer convenience or productivity.
Last update: NovemMapBasic IDE 1.7 Beta1 ReleasedĪlthough being an important language, MapInfo (now PB) interestingly made almost no improvements to the MapBasic Editor.
