i have been coding with qt for while and i wonder which IDE others qt developer use,a text editor like gedit or sth like eclipse
i'm looking for a IDE with enhanced code completion and project managment,eclipse comesup with both but it's code completion is pretty slow(it takes almost 20 seconds to get me the code completion each time i call it,so i have disabled it!)
which IDE do you take advantage of?
ps:I Use C++ for development
why not Visual Studio 2005
I have tried QDevelop and edyuk.
QDevelop tends to be a bit unstable, but it behaves well if I don't write exotic code and avoid using CTRL-D on the last line of each file :) I whish it had folds and a better sintax highlight scheme because red comments just hurt my eyes :). Code completion loads fast ( when it loads ) but seems to work only for our project's classes, not for Qt built in classes ( but this might be just some misconfiguration in my PC... )
edyuk has integrated designer and assistant which is great. It also has a more eye friendly syntax highliter and code folds which are a bless =). Code completion is fast and works for both the project's classes and for the Qt's builtin classes. Unfortunately it has one major showstopper for me: when I try to compile it invariably compiles the whole project from scratch, even if I don't touch a file, but this was just in my PC ( a friend of mine used it and didn't stumble on this error ). Edyuk also doesn't preserve line endings, it simply seems to save in CRLF format, even if the file had *NIX line endings. Another thing that I miss is the direct jump from the cpp to the h file, and clicking in a class member in the class browser and jumping directly to the member declaration/implementation instead of going to the top of the file.
If it weren't for the compilation problem, I'd be probably using edyuk now. I'm using Qdevelop which, although limited in some regards, has been serving me well.

I'm using Vim+cvim+ctags. For me this is the best solution.
Syntax highlight => yes
Folding => yes
Code completion =>yes
Integrated designer and assistant => no. actually i don't need this integration, because it is not vital.
The only thing that may cause such a bug is you clicking on "rebuild all" instead of "compile". I admit a small adjustement of action names may be needed but this really is not a bug.Quote:

In such a case it wouldn't be a bug. I'm sure I was using the "Compile" button, which isn't the standard name I'm used to, but I realised that was the correct one. As I said, on another computer it worked just fine. Actually, I gave it a try a while ago and it works now =). But I was really using the "compile" action. Just couldn't figure out what the problem was :eek:Quote:

One possibility could be like Scite does, with a menu action, like Edit->line endings->{CR,LF,CRLF}Quote:

Instead of using the OS' default line ending It seems more reasonable to use the line ending found in the original file. if the file is being created (blank), then using the OS as the criteria seems the best way.
That would be *really* nice :) Most people won't even check the shortcut assignment dialog. They learn the sortcut because it's visible next to the menu or toolbar action that it triggers.Quote:

My bad, your name looks familiar, so I guess I know who I can mess with when something about edyuk arises :)Quote:

thanks alot for answers,so usefull
Bless SVN : it has a solution : set the svn:eol-style property to native for all your text files (using svn propset) and it will automatically convert things from local to LF when committing and back to local line ending when checking out :DQuote:
