What is the best IDE for C++

[siu02rk]

I am totally new to linux and Ubuntu. I am looking for something similar to Visual Studio if that is possible! I would like a good IDE where it is simple to compile the program.

Thanks in advance.

Try KDevelop, or if you're feeling brave you can try Emacs (see my signature).

edit:
to install kdevelop just do:


sudo aptitude install kdevelop

I used to like Code::Blocks back in the Windows days... I've read that it's available for Linux so you might want to look into it.

There's also always Anjuta but a lot of people seem to have problems with it.

+1 code blocks, but make sure you use a nightly build (http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php?board=20.0).

I use Anjuta, I've only managed to program GUI apps in C, I don't seem to get the C++ to work outside console apps. Anyone any idea how to use Anjuta's full potential in C++?
