I started IDL with IDL7, after working one year with Java and Eclipse,
so I don't know how IDL looked like before. Therefore, I really have no
clue about the issues you are raising here. I am not saying the
workbench is perfect (see my recent post about unstable behavior and
esthetic consideration). But I don't understand what you mean with the
advantages of having code somewhere else than in the workbench, etc.
Unlike you, I also have no problem with the concept of "project", even
more when the "project" is a team-development managed with SVN. Can you
explain what you mean here?
Thanks,
Fabien
