[gameprogrammer] Another IDE!

Whilst searching for a cross-platform PHP IDE I came across Eclipse 
("http://eclipse.org";) which is a Java based IDE that supports plugins for 
many other types of development (PHP, Java(script), C/C++).

I haven't had chance to investigate the C/C++ side of things yet, but from 
just looking at the project page ("http://www.eclipse.org/cdt/";) it would 
appear to offer a good selection of tools / facilities for the budding C/C++ 
coder who wishes to refrain from paying several hundred pounds to M$.

I only mention this as an addition to the previous discussion on developing 
C++ for the windows platform. It seems it may be a good alternative for those 
who wish to have things such as an integrated debugger (GDB), code 
completion, syntax highlighting, etc.

My first impressions of the IDE itself are excellent. It seems a very polished 
and professional attempt, with many facilities built in (or optional) that 
are making my life extremely easy at the moment.

Maybe worth a look for some of you people?
