Development tools

Hi,

What development tools are people using with their coding of xbmc on Linux? Are there any nice IDEs which are compatible with the current xbmc build?

Nad

all ide's which are capable of running 'make' should be compatible.

there is already project files for kdevelop in svn.

unfortunately kdevelop isnt very good imo, so i just use vim (not that i've done much work on the linux port).

Thanks Spiff, I was just about to answer my own question having spotted the XBMC.kdevelop file in the svn. Unfortunately, having downloaded kdevelop, it crashes on me on opening XBMC.kdevelop. Looks like I'll be going back to the text editors.

The wiki article should have all the information on tools you need, if not then feel free to update the article (it is a wiki after all)

I use visual studio on win32, then when I'm finished, test it still builds under linux

Not that I do much dev work on the linuxport either!
