Hello,

Just wanted to get an opinion everyone here. I code in c++, and normally I am running mac os x, but I have just decided to switch to Ubuntu and start coding in there. What are all of your favorite IDE programs? I loved xcode and eclipse back in mac, what do you all like that works well in Ubuntu? Vim/GCC ?

I find netbeans the least annoying.

I used the QT Creator and it was easy to use, but actually I didn't code so much.

I use eclipse mostly... I use kdevelop occasionally but it's mostly oriented toward kde and qt

You must be confusing IDEs with compilers/linkers. In ubuntu the default compiler/linker toolchain is gcc. Many IDEs use it as backend. I hope I have not confused you.

As for IDEs I use the Code::Blocks nightlies (http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/board,20.0.html)(they have a new and better parser) for my projects and Geany (http://www.geany.org/) if I want to quickly open and inspect/modify a random source file.

I used Gedit for a long time with some plugins, but recently I switched to QT Creator and I'm very satisfied.

I also used Eclipse some time ago, but auto completion was always very slow resulting in a delay of about a second if a lot of header files were included.
