What ide

Post by d-grafix »

Which IDE are people using for c++ in ubuntu + irrlicht?

Ive tried both anjuta and eclipse, but canot make head nor tail of them as they are so complicated and "well-featured". I compile something like an irr-example and try and run it it moans and groans that stuff is missing, or that there is no executable (even though i just "made" it). I know the code is good as i can type 'make' from the command line and it builds fine.

Anyone know a good simple IDE that has basic project management, a debug facility and just works. (code folding etc a bonus)
That is unless anyone has an idiots guide to setting up the other two.

Its been a long long time since i last used c++ and it is almost all forgoten. That was on windows at uni where the IDEs (borland c++ i think it was) were all set up ready to create a project and just code away.

Bloodshed Dev C++ is cross-platform and quite popular IDE. You can find a tutorial for Bloodshed Dev and Irrlicht here:

Hope it helps!

I use Eclipse with the CDT plugin.

Open source, fast, fancy, simple, just good. :D

If you have questions how to setup Eclipse, just ask here or pm me.

I prefer Code::Blocks. A tutorial to get it running with Irrlicht is available, and I like it. Used Dev-C++ before, but imho Code::Blocks is better :wink:
