IDE to build C files on linux

deepthits · 01-18-2010, 02:59 AM

Hi,

I am trying to build an application on linux and it requires compilation of several files along with my application. Till now I have been trying using a makefile which is built for a test application which uses almost the same files as the mine by replacing its main.c file. But mow have ended up writing everything, function declarations, definitions... in the same file looks very unprofessional and is quite difficult to manage.
So, can someone please suggest an IDE to build this? I saw quite a few IDE's supported on linux but they are all appropriate for C++, GTK, java languages and not C.

Netbeans.

VIM. Something that should be available in your repos.

Please post your thread in only one forum. Posting a single thread in the most relevant forum will make it easier for members to help you and will keep the discussion in one place. This thread is being closed because it is a duplicate.

Leaving the one in programming open because it's more sensibly placed.
