I am evaluating if Qt is suitable for a commercial C++ project I am planning.

I need to develop under Vista (don't even ask), but the final product would also be deployed on osx and linux.

I am a one-man company, so costs are important, but I would like to know what development tools people are using under WINDOWS. My two main options are

Eclipse CDT with Qt integration
SlickEdit

I do not plan to use Visual Studio (cost), unless there is a real benefit.

Does anybody have any pointers?

Thanks,

Keith

You can use the express edition of visual studio. It's free (as in free beer).

This is a very nice IDE on both Linux and Windows:

Other free (both as in free speech and free beer) options include :

Edyuk : http://edyuk.org
Monkey Studio : http://monkeystudio.org
Cobras (not sure the project is still active...)All of these work under Linux. I am not able to test under MAC but I there shouldn't be any trouble... As for their compatibility with Vista all I can say is that Edyuk does compile and run pretty well under a fresh Vista with Qt 4.3/MinGW 3.4.2 (I was using development version from SVN but a package is coming soon).
