This pages serves as a collecting point for all issues related to the development of Octave.
This page contains links to pages of interest to developers.  Some links appear in multiple sections.


The future development of Octave is planned on the [[Roadmap]] page.
==Getting started==
* [[Developer FAQ]]
* [[Contribution guidelines|Contributing to Octave]]
* [[Contributing to the development of packages/modules]]
* [[Octave's file types]]
* [[Easy projects]]
* [[C++ style guide]]
* [[Octave style guide]]


On the page [[Projects]] possible tasks are listed for future Octave developers.  
==Project suggestions==
* [[Easy projects]]
* [[GSoC Project Ideas]]
* [[Projects]] -- Many things that would be nice to have done.  Not classified into things done or not done in Matlab.  (Is that a project in itself?)
* [[Roadmap]] -- future development of Octave
 
==Tools==
 
* [[Mercurial]] -- version control scheme.
* [[MXE]] -- cross-compiling to Windows or OSX.
* [[Doxygen]] -- "Literate programming" documentation generator.
 
* gdb -- debugger.  Useful to obtain stack traces.
* valgrind -- memory leak detector, profiler etc.
* [https://ccache.samba.org/ ccache] -- cache compilation across builds.
 
==Bugs and testing==
* [[Status of bugs]]
* [[Bug Fix List - 4.0 Release]]
* [[Debugging Octave]], particularly using .oct files and gdb
* [[Finding Memory Leaks]]
* [[Add BIST tests for octave functions written in C++]]
* [[BIST for m-files]]
 
==Works in Progress==
* [[Classdef]]
* [[Java interface]]
* [[JIT]]
 
==Code sprints==
* [[2015 Code Sprint]]
* [[Code sprint Zurich]]
 
==Release procedures==
* [[Release Checklist]]
 
==Other==
* [[Hacking]]
* [[Project Infrastructure]]
