I'm not sure what better to call it. Charm++ (its core) was around ruining the lives of chemistry grad students and their sysadmins long, long before pycharm was a twinkle in its creators' eyes. I'm sure jetbrains won't be coming for it any time soon.
- deadbeef404 8y agoCharmer? CharmIt? Charming? CharmHPD? Charmplus? Superintendentchalmers? The problem here isn't that PyCharm came second or that Jetbrains will have an issue. The problem here is that it's so many conversations will go > Have you used CharmPy? > You mean PyCharm? > No, CharmPy! > Are we talking about the same thing? > No > Oh, that's just confusing, then.
- davidmr 8y agoI dunno, maybe. They're so completely different that it seems extremely unlikely to me that anyone will confuse the two in a conversation with any context whatsoever. The conversation you made up would almost certainly start with a discussion about scientific parallel programming. Any discussion I've ever had about charm++ (too many, I'm afraid) wouldn't have been confused for a discussion about an IDE. Either way, it's done.
