I use KDevelop and I have no problems with it. I just use it to edit source files though, I don't mess around with all the advanced options like binding everything together in a project of linking things. I do all of that stuff with my bash shell and a makefile, that's all I need. [cool]

I noticed no one mentioned emacs. That's all I've used so far, but I've only been working in linux for about 3 weeks. I like it pretty well. Copy/paste is sort of wierd. Found a makefile trick, use *.cpp and you don't have to keep adding files to it.

Original post by Anonymous Poster if you want something like visual c++ just use windows. don't waste your time with linux.

1) Windows is expensive.
2) Visual C++ is expensive.
3) Presumably his decision to use GNU/Linux was based on considerations other than the availability of IDE's. I know mine was.

<GASP!> You sir (or madam) should be shot.

CodeBlocks is pretty good so far.

As for the Anon Poster, please go away. Posting Anti-Linux sentiments in the Unix forum is just stupid - nobody asked you to click the post. Everyone else: Don't bother wasting your time on him, he's just trying to bait you :)

I used jedit for a while but kdevelop 3 really rocks the boat IMO.

I kinda like Anjuta. I only wish it didn't depend on autotools. I was really looking forward to Anjuta2 but then I found out it's still going to depend on autotools.

I'm looking forward to seeing how Yann's IDE works.

Original post by tadobie Can anyone recommend a good development environment along the lines of Visual C++ that is NOT KDevelop!? I'm curious, does anyone even use KDevelop and if so is it generally a nightmare to use or is it just me?
