Flexible C++ linux IDE (a specific problem)

CoffeeMug · 2004-09-15T15:49:28

Is there a flexible C++ linux IDE? I've just encountered a problem with Anjuta that doesn't allow me to store files in my own directory structure. Apparantly Anjuta *requires* my files to be in a SRC directory located in the directory of the project file. Frankly, this requirement is rediculous: I have my files structured according to a specific hierarchy and IDE specific project files are located in one of the folders. It's logical to keep platform independent files *above* that folder but it seems like I can't do that with Anjuta. Does KDevelop allow for flexible directory structures? If not, can someone recommend another IDE? I will install KDevelop tomorrow but I'd like to keep my options open. Also, I am considering using XEmacs for my development needs but being a complete emacs n00b I have a few questions about its C++ development mode. Does it actually maintain makefiles or do I have to do it manually? If someone can give me some overall direction, that'd be great.

IIRC, MinGW Dev Studio didn't do intellisense

Well, it has limited intellisense. In some cases it shows tooltips with the names and types of parameters whenever you write code to call a function. It doesn't exactly parse every part of C++ grammer and show you hints as you type but limited support is better than no support.

TRy CbuilderX from borland.Ihave tried anjuta, Kdevelop, MingWstudio and CbuilderX is the best so far. I am however migrating to using makefiles the IDE thing is not working well for me.

I was influenced by the Ghetto you ruined.

How is not working? I use Borland BuilderX and it works perfectly.
