Goals for upcoming releases
As discussed in the Online Developer Meeting (2020-10-27), this wiki section is for a list of possible goals for the next release. Although anyone may edit the wiki, this section is intended for active developers, not a place to dump wishlist items or feature requests. Please create a subsection for your ideas/priorities.
jwe priorities
- See also JWE Project Ideas for additional info about some of these items.
- Bug fixes, especially those related to compatibility issues.
- Work through the open bug reports for which patches have been submitted. Review/apply/reject and close as many of these reports as possible.
- Refactor/rewrite code for handling load path.
- Refactor/rewrite exist and which functions.
- Create a low-level interface to HDF5 functions.
- Support Matlab's HDF5-based MAT file format using the proposed low-level interface to HDF5 functions.
- Allow all types of function handles to be saved and loaded.
- Allow classdef objects to be saved and loaded.
- Replace the terminal widget in the GUI.
- Accept Matlab's new argument validation syntax in parser.
Project ideas and work in progess
- Short projects -- Good starting point to get into the Octave development.
- Summer of Code Project Ideas -- Ideas page for GSoC, SOCIS, ... projects.
- Projects -- Many things that would be nice to have done.
- Classdef -- Define own data types using
classdef
. - JIT -- Just in time compiler for Octave.
- GUI terminal widget -- Ideas about a new improved terminal widget.
- International Characters Support -- Using Octave in your own language.
