Linux C++ IDE??

Post by Mazer »

Anybody know of a good one? Please don't suggest KDevelop because, even though it came with my distro, I've somehow developed a hatred for KDE :P . I've also tried anjuta but couldn't get it to work. Anything? Worst case scenario I guess I'll just write the whole program in Dev-Cpp on my winxp (interestingly enough, it's only free for windows, not linux...) and then compile the code on Linux.

Learn Emacs -- it'll suck for awhile, then it'll be great. And there might even be Dev-Cpp for Linux -- have you looked?

You might also try Eclipse with CDT

Yes, I like Dev-Cpp so I already looked into that, but it seems you can only get the Linux version if you buy the CD from Bloodshed. It's weird to see something free for Windows and not for Linux.
Anyways, what are some of the advantages of Emacs? I've seen it before, it looks like an old DOS based program. Does it get easy to use?

Heh. That's another one that I tried but couldn't get working.

Have you checked sourceforge?

Look at the bottom of this page:

you can customize your emacs how you like. thats the advantage. starting is quite hard, but it the best.

I don't think you need to be in kde to run kdevelop. I run konquerer and kmail in blackbox WM... heh. If I wasnt so lazy, i'd drop to the prompt and see, but I think i will leave that for you to find out. There was a period that i disliked KDE, but K apps are more useful then the X apps that come up in the default blackbox menus. K apps run better under blackbox.

yep, and they run on fluxbox and just about any other wm. you just need qt. (Although compiling Qt took AGES on my computer)

You might want to try Eclipse with CDT. It can manage your makefiles, there are wizards to help you set up the command line arguments the same way than M$ Visual Studio .NET and also it makes only about 5 files per project (as opposed to anjuta and kdevelop that make about 50)
