The decision to use CodeLite was based on a research regarding the following C++ IDE for Linux:
- Eclipse Galileo with CDT Plugin
- NetBeans 6.7 (which is also the base for the SunStudio IDE)
- KDevelop4
- CodeBlocks 8.02
- CodeLite 2.x
After all I have decided to use CodeLite 2.x.
Below I have listed some Pros and Cons regarding the mentioned C++ IDEs. Please note, that this reflects my personal opinion only!
EDIT: what a pity that SOF doesn't support tables, so I have to write in paragraphs ...
Eclipse Galileo with CDT Plugin
Pros:
- reasonable fast
- also supports Java, Perl(with E.P.I.C plugin)
- commonly used and well maintained
- also available for other OS flavours (Windows, MacOS, Solaris, AIX(?))
Cons:
- GUI is very confusing and somewhat inconsistent - not very intuitive at all
- heavy weight
- Only supports CVS (AFAIK)
NetBeans 6.7 (note this is also the base for the SunStudio IDE)
Pros:
- one of the most intuitive GUI I have ever seen
- also supports Java, Python, Ruby
- integrates CVS, SVN, Mercurial
- commonly used and well maintained
- also available for other OS flavours (Windows, MacOS, Solaris)
Cons:
- extremly slow
- heavy weight
- uses Spaces for indentation, which is not the policy at my work. I'm sure this is configurable, but I couldn't find out how to to that
KDevelop4 (note: I did not much testing on it)
Pros:
- commonly used on Linux
- integrates CVS, SVN, Mercurial
Cons:
- the GUI looks somewhat old fashioned
- heavy weight
- very specific to the KDE environment
CodeBlocks 8.02 (note: I did not much testing on it)
Pros:
- reasonable fast
Cons:
- the GUI looks somewhat old fashioned (although it has a nice startup screen)
- the fonts in the editor are very small
- some icons (e.g. the debugger related icons starting/stepping) are very small
- no source control integration
CodeLite 2.x (note: this is my personal favorite)
Pros:
- the best, modern looking and intuitive GUI I have seen on Linux
- lightweight
- reasonable fast
- integrates SVN
- also available on other OS flavours(Windows, MacOS, Solaris(?))
Cons:
- no CVS integration (that's important for me because I have to use it at work)
- no support for Java, Perl, Python (would be nice to have)
