WxWidgets and a rising C ++ ide: codelite

Because of its loose licence and cross-platform features, wxwidgts has been my faviorite C ++ library all the way, but for a long time I cannot find any good tool there for it and general CPP development.

I'm not a VI or Emacs enthusiast, And I think most poeple pronounced that they like those two are zhuangbilists, could t for few one who really can master them. the two are classic indeed, but just classic.

As for IDE's, when 'historical 'Open Source ones on Linux (by which I mean those GTK or KDE ones) are really not that good, as well as portable. I guess there shoshould be some reason...
And, although VC (and even its express edition) is in fact awesome, too poeple (including me) are always trying to find an IDE other than M $'s stuffs. besides, using M $'s tools for a long time and you won't learn much other than pressing F5 to compile...

years ago, we got Dev-CPP. when this excellent project stalled, wxdevcpp came out to carry it on to something even better. but the latter has also stopped upgrading for one year more. until recently I learned from its Forum that a 7.0 is coming. aha! BTW, there's no sign indicating this yet but my eager hope: if its debugging facility wocould become better, wxdevcpp will be disabled CPP players' choice on Windows again ~

Months ago, when codeblocks released its version 8.02, I thought I finally get an opensource, cross-platform and lightweight ide with wxWidgets support and good GDB integration. Certainly it is! But today I found something that might be better:Codelite. Codelite was originally an attempt to use ctags and SQLite to assist codeblocks 'Auto Code Completion(Get excited? No need to use slickedit to tag all the 'include' dirs any more, codelite can do it too !), But now it morphed to a complete CPP ide with almost all that CB has and more!

Well, now still not exist people know this ide yet, but I'm sure sooner they will. It feels good to have so keep amazing choices nowadays.

And... one last word, actually I really don't like CPP much. but since I'm still in school and have to meet it frequently, I will learn and use it very well ~

Update:When testing new ides for my attempt to build my own standard code library for common algorithms, I occasionally appreciated the power of doxygen and graphviz. Any one that make programs shocould try them out! Really fantastic tools ~
