Programming in Kubuntu

[gloteron]

Hei everyone!

I need a simple software for Kubuntu for programming C/C++. Not something as big as Visual Studio, just for debugging and compiling.
Thanks in advance!

Do you need an IDE or are you cool with just using a text editor and g++ or making makefiles yourself?
If you need an IDE, kdevelop is nice.
Otherwise, just kate and its built-in terminal are nice.

valgrind is a debugger I use.

Is this the kind of stuff you were looking for?

I think Kdevelop comes with kubuntu right? I'll try using it

anyway how do you use Valgrind for debug? I know it for memory allocation

Yea, lots of options here.

Moved to programming talk, you might want to look at the sticky on this forum.

Also, Ubuntu packages many tools you will need into the "build essential" meta package. The headers are in the *-dev package

See the sticky, it has everything you need for using C and C++.

Well, memory problems are usually what I have to debug. :|
Otherwise, I just debug things myself. I am sure someone else knows of more debuggers as I try to stay away from c and c++ as much as possible.

I have a problem with kdevelop, i created a new project 'hello world', emptied it and added my files. I also added the makefile I have but it says "makefile couldn't be found". I am writing in C.
How do I add it to the project?

[gloteron]

Hei again
Can anyone please help me and explain how I use the Kdevelop? Do I need the command line makefile I created or should I use automake/autoconf?
I tried to do "Build" and use the default he offered but it failed.

Thx :)
