[gameprogrammer] Re: Another IDE!

I've just started using Eclipse at work for a large C++ project at work. I think its nice.. everyone else at work is happy with vim and gdb :(
But as i have been brought up suckling the teat of nice IDE's (TurboC/Rhide/MSVC6/MSVS.NET) I am so much more productive in one.


Its good to see that companies such as Windriver are now scrapping their own crappy IDE's and starting to use and expand on eclipse.. its definately getting more use in industry (particularly in non-windows development platforms).

For smaller projects is has a nice feature where it recompiles each files after every Ctrl-S and places little markers in the left side of the code to show you unused variables, compile errors and generally stuff you do in your development cycle of Code -> Save -> Compile -> Debug.. especially when you are starting out and make lots of little mistakes.

I use Eclipse for all my Java work and also for some of my C++ work. It's great being able to use the same tool/interface for both languages. Unfortunately for a lot of third party engines out there you have to use VS 2003, so I have that installed as well. I much prefer Eclipse for both langages though.
