CodeLine IDE

Basesoft has announced CodeLine, a new Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for developing full-fledged native Mac OS X applications in object-oriented BASIC language. It includes support for system frameworks like Cocoa and WebKit, and can produce Universal Binaries. CodeLine uses standard GCC (compiler) and GDB (debugger) also used by XCode, can import NIB files, transparently generates intermediate Obj-C code that can be imported in XCode projects, has Dead Code Stripping, and smart compilation that only compiles classes and modules that have been modified, among other features. CodeLine is still under development. A 'Public Preview' will be available in a few weeks and promises regular updates until the release of CodeLine 1.0. (Pricing not available.)
