Hi Everybody

I want to develop a application in LinuX for Video Conferencing/VoIP.

I wanted to know how should i start. And what r the tools availiable in Linux for software development.

Is there any RAD tool like VB in Linux?

Thanking in Anticipation and waiting for Reply

There's no VB. Much depends on the list of languages you need. You should probably look at Kylix (Linux version of Delphi).

Python with C/C++ extensions can be pretty RAD.

Hi,
Let me tell abt the languages that i know
C/C++,VB,SQL and a bit of Java

I wanted more information about the languages that would be helpful in developing the S/W and where i could get more about the langauages in Linux.

Install the development packages you can find on your installation cds. Two programs you can find interesting: QT Designer (for C++) and GLADE (for C and C++). They allow you to 'draw' GUI interface (code should be written separately, but you can add it quite easily). There's also Kylix (supporting C++, haven't tried it).
You can also try such things as wxWidgets (http://www.wxwidgets.org/), python (http://www.python.org/).

Many, many languages are supported in Linux. You have also a lot of compilers on the installation cd, most of them with documentation (especially for QT Designer and GLADE, that's why I don't include links for them).
