This might be a little off-topic, but then again it's a matter of
finding what's out there that I can run on FC2.
At the moment I'm doing some C programming of simulations for the
mathematics problems we're looking at.
So the projects aren't huge, and not aimed at multi-desktop/OS
compatibility. Currently they utilise
a collection of source/include files, and bring them together with a
single hand-written makefile. No use of
gtk or qt - they use either the EFL (enlightenment libraries) or Glut
for window management.
All I'm looking for is an IDE which can bring these together and allow
me to point it at the makefile I wish
to use for compilation purposes (saves me having 10 vim windows open at
once).
I had a look at Kdevelop and Anjuta, but creation of any sort of
project seems to run off and automate a
procedure that sets up links, configure scripts, multiple makefiles -
none of which I need. If you do any
programming on FC, what do you use for small programs that aren't on
the scale of kde or gnome applications?
Or is there a way to force kdevelop or anjuta to do what I'm looking for?
Thanks,
Daniel Stonier.
Personally, I'm more than happy with XEmacs, a few homebrew scripts to
automate some of the process, and the good ol' makefile.
But in terms of true development environments, I'd highly recommend
Eclipse. If you haven't heard, Eclipse is a highly extensible
development environment originally devloped by IBM, who gave it to the
FOSS community. There's a slew of plugins out there, from a standard C
environment with syntax highlighting to an Acme architecture
modeling/visualization environment. In addition, plugin
development/extension is pretty easy.
