What is hbIDE FOR MAC?

hbIDE

hbIDE, as you might guess from the name, stands for Harbour's Integrated Development Environment. It's an open-source tool that works on multiple platforms and is hosted right inside Harbour's SVN repository.

What hbIDE Does

This handy software is designed to make your life easier when it comes to managing your project's lifecycle. It helps with everything from setting up project components to editing source files and even building those files into final binaries.

Supported Compilers

Right now, hbIDE supports the Harbour and xHarbour compilers natively. But don't worry! There are plans in the works to extend support to other compilers like Xbase++, Clipper, Clip, and Flagship in the near future.

A One-Stop Solution

The best part? hbIDE aims to provide a single-window interface where you can handle all actions related to your application project without needing any other tools. This means less hassle switching between different programs!

Utilizing C Compilers

You can even use multiple C compilers within the same project definition. For projects using Harbour and xHarbour, hbIDE utilizes its powerful make system called hbMK2. If you're working with other compilers, don't stress! You can define compiler settings and linker commands just once, making it super easy for the rest of your project's life.

What's Next?

The topics listed on the left give you an idea of what features are coming down the pipeline. They'll get updated as time goes on, but for now, the main focus is on developing hbIDE even further.
