Topic: A good C/C++ IDE for Linux (Page 1 of 1)

Mumblemumble.

Ok, I confess again : I use crapy Dev cpp on Windows for C programming needs.
Visual Cpwhat you say?

Anyway, I need to gcc some project, a dll in Windows, must make it a .so for Linux (and possibly Mac OS if I program a very portable code, which seems to be the case).
And I'd just love an IDE that embeds makefile/compile features, a cozy little thing where a keyboard shortcut can put my dll together.

Any suggestion? Much appreciated in advance.

Haven't tried it personally,
but supposedly, it works neraly as well as the java variant:

Eclipse CDT (C delvelopment toolkit).

I seem to remember I loved DevC++ on windows, but now I do most of my code on Geany on Ubuntu (it's in the repos). It's small and lightweight, but very simple. I'm not sure that it has projects at all, but since I like to write my own makefiles, I don't care. It instantly ties into gcc, g++, and the like , so you only have to write some code and hit F8 + F5. It has a sidebar with the classes, functions, variables, included files, etc and a box on the bottom with the compilation messages/a terminal. Pretty standard stuff...

...if you want to make huge projects, but hate writing makefiles (it just like a batchfile, folks!), it might not be for you. I use it exclusively, nonetheless.


... and yeah, Eclipse... but I hate it (didn't really give it a chance, though)... also, try Kdevelop (it's more like MSVC++).

Also Anjuta for GNOME.

I have only used it briefly, but, I understand that Visual Slick Edit is the program that VisualC gets most (if not all) of it features from. And, I beleive it is a cross platform IDE.

Sounds good people, thanks a bunch. Eclipse for C is awful, period.
"Like MSVC" is not a compliment to me, but "Visual Slick Edit" sounds slick enough. Gonna test that one first.

I'm learning a bit of C++ ATM and am just using Kate. It has the terminal window built in so I can run the programs.

KDevelop is really nice but it's overkill for what I need and what I know of C++.

I like Dev-C++ FWIW.
