I use code:blocks, it works pretty well for me.

KDevelop (4 is still unstable) or just Kate and Konsole. Qt Creator is interesting, too. In my opionion the IDE is not that important as some people think.

Visual Studio 2008, since I usually program for Windows and it install all I need: win32 SDK and MFC library

I just went ahead and downloaded this. I already had Visual Studios, but I wanted something more simplistic.

After some time using it, you will realise that VS is not so advanced, however it really requires some experience to deal in localizing where the options are hidden, like compiling options, dependencys, etc... but it still simple compared with IDE's like Eclipse (for java, but have a plugin for C++)

Eclipse is awesome for Java.

Eclipse is shite for most other things.

It's not the size of hammer that counts. It's how you wield it.

I use dev++ (wxwidgets mod). Feels a lot better than visual studio and has an easy to use online database of libraries you can download.

I use Geany and a console in which I type "make". Used to do Code::blocks until I noticed I didn't really use much of its functions...

Code::blocks is really good though.


VS = No.

What do you need ram for when you're developing?

Also: My 7 year old computer had 512mb ram. My new one has 4 gigs - and eclipse uses what ... 100? 200? Who cares - it didnt even matter on the old machine.

The only time ever when I need RAM is when developing... because bugs happen...
