Bug Fixes: No software application / programming language can lay claim to zero bugs. The WinDev online community is fairly vocal about the number of bugs within WinDev that have existed for several years – PC Soft apparently pays far more attention to adding 900+ new features to the next WinDev version than it does fixing reported problems. The PC Soft bug reporting system appears to have much to be desired; in 2013 there was a movement on one WinDev forum to create a non-PC Soft controlled bug reporting system to address longstanding issues that were frustrating longtime WinDev programmers. PC Soft is pretty secretive on sharing WinDev bugs to its community – there is no repository where a programmer can view reported bugs or see if a bug workaround exists / is being addressed. WinDev programmers don’t receive many downloadable bug fixes either – you MIGHT see one or two updates for the version you paid for, and then it’s time to pay for the next upgraded version (with the older reported bugs left intact). SoftVelocity has always been forthcoming on bug squashing and what customers reported, and I’ve often seen 10+ downloadable incremental builds after paying for the current Clarion version that resolved issues – the list of bug fixes (and sometimes new features) usually occupies a few printed pages, which tells me that the vendor is serious about squashing bugs. Applications developed in Clarion 7 and Clarion 8 early builds suffered from horrific screen flashing whenever the screen was being refreshed – I’ve not seen that with my compiled apps, and now Clarion 9 is in beta. The WinDev online community is also fairly vocal about lack of technical support, and whatever tech support they do receive from the “techies” falls well short of the mark. The Clarion community seems to be better in that regard, with SoftVelocity staff members (from the President down) monitoring the Clarion USENET groups periodically and chiming in. [WINNER-CLARION]
