linux gui c/c++ compiler

[Imin]

hello

aren't there any gui based c/c++ compiler for linux? i found that gcc is too confusing for me... perhaps maybe because i'm used to visual studio :p?

btw any good resource for newbie on how to use the gcc?

Kdevelop is like Visual studio on steroids.
Install the KDE development packages from your distro cd, because you also need all the development libraries for KDE.
It does KDE, QT, and Terminal apps.
It's been my savior for my c++ class, I hated visual studio.

I don't believe it has a VB style form editor, but that's good because nobody in their right mind could actually like that thing.

try anjuta aswell. Kdevelop likes to make alot of files for simple projects

kind of curious why you find gcc confusing though... what are you trying to do with it?

If you're about to write some cross-platform code, you might prefer KDevelop, for it comes with an "embedded" qt. the trolltech stuff really saves a lot of time of writing code that is usable under both unix and windows.

best,
