Programming in Linux?

Expand Post »
Ok, excuse my ignorance, but I thoroughly enjoy the API for programming in windows, is their any such thing in Linux terms. i.e. I would like the do some java programming and C++ programming in Linux, but is it all in a text editor or is their an api/ide for it?

I have a Forte for Java 4 (pre-Sun One Studio) for linux, but not sure how you install things in linux...well not entirely.

Any suggestions would be appreciated...

Re: Programming in Linux?
There certainly are many Java IDE's available for linux, Forte and Netbeans for example, as for installing them, well I'm not a linux user myself so I can't really help you there.

And though I've never seen one, there MUST be a nice C++ IDE available as well. Maybe Borland makes a linux version, or DevC++? Search google for it.

Re: Programming in Linux?

I'm not sure about IDE's on linux, as far as I know none exist. There advanced text editors with nice syntax highlighting options. Vim is my favorite editor on linux by all means.

Re: Programming in Linux?

If you are going to be needing a Java IDE, I would highly recommend NetBeans. It is cross-platform, and runs pretty smoothely on both Windows and Linux. It also runs on Solaris (both Sparc and x86), OpenVMS, and MacOSX. I am not a huge Java programmer, so there may be better tools out there.

Re: Programming in Linux?

You can try Magic C++, a visual remote Unix/Linux C/C++ IDE
