I'm just after making the big move*, but haven't found myself an IDE I like yet - does anyone have suggestions as to a good IDE for programming c++?








*To Gentoo, in case you were wondering

Dev-C++

By Bloodshed software...
Using the MinGW Compiler...

Its not perfect, but hey its free...

Its the IDE used by UNISA (University of South Africa) for teaching C++... :ok:

Eclipse CDT

If it's anything like the Java version, this is bound to be great! I love Eclipse! And maybe you could use KDevelop (if KDE is your thing).

I've used Dev-c++ a while back under windows and it worked like a charm!

I still can't compile with Eclipse >_> I don't recommend that one. Dev-C++'s way better.

anjuta
http://anjuta.sf.net

Isn't that still in Alpha stages? Looks good though, but both Dev-C++ and Eclipse have more development behind them..

anjuta works really well.
I use it for quite large projects.

I already use Dev in Windows - it's grand, but it's missing a feature I'd really like; the ability to shrink functions when you don't want to look at them. KWrite had this, but the only way to get it would to install all of KDE(!). I'll try some of those others though.

anjuta has it.
it doesn't remember them through restarts though

Cool. I'll try it.


I totally agree about lynx btw!
