Managing building in C ++ and good Linux IDEs

Question

I'm starting to write a moderate-sized project in C ++ that requires a fairly large number of files and dependencies on other projects.

Do you think that manually maintaining the Makefile for this project is the best approach?

Are there other alternatives for C ++ that make construct management and file dependency management very easy to handle?

Also, which IDE is good for C ++ development on Linux? I like Vim, but you think there are good IDEs for C ++ (like Eclipse for Java) that provide code completion, etc.

Thanks! Ajay

Answer 7

There is also Code :: Blocks as an IDE with its own build system. But I would advise you to try other build tools (CMake, Boost.Build, SCons) if you want you to be able to create your software “anywhere” without having a fancy integrated development environment .; -)

Answer 8

I found that Emacs + Scons works very well for me.
