Linux IDE's

[Tesl]

normally i dont post very often, and can usually find out what i want to know via the search option, but, strangely, i didnt get any links about this.

just asking what the better IDE's are for coding some Linux Applications. I'm happy to adjust to using Java or C++ for most of my projects, but im looking for a strong compiler.

I quite liked Anjuta, and need to learn more about that. KDevelop appears to be working along the right lines, although doesnt seem to want to actually work properly :(

im looking for something where i can easily design and build some Graphical Applications, but havent found anything quite right. I dont really like Glade, although i have the feeling im going to have to get used to it =/

im searching for something similar to Visual Studio C++ really, which was fairly intuitive and worked nicely, especially when building applications :)

im just hoping to get up to scratch with the Linux programming environments, as im planning to join a few on going projects this summer and do my bit for Open Source :) im just struggling a little bit to make the switch from Visual Studio

(on the plus side, i love shell scripting, and id never consider writing Perl on anything but a Unix based machine :))

Myself, I like JEdit for java (as well as BlueJ).
For C++ I use Emacs + gcc.

<edit> Oh yeah, SunOneStudio is kinda neat. Maybe you'd like it...</edit>

havent tried JEdit before, but by its name i get the feeling it wont help me much in easily creating Graphical Apps.

im happy enough using vi for little scripts or writing short pieces of code, but id rather use something else for the more industrial strength projects.

SunOne is good for the Swing GUI stuff. That's about all I know.
Good Luck!

I use Kate for both C, and Java. It does syntax highlighting for both and a bunch more, plus it gives a full XTerm for compiling/running.

I'll post a screenshot.
