I thought it might be fun to see what TTG's favourite code editors are. My quess is most people will be using Visual Studio is some sense for C# or VB but let's see.


Personally I use Sublime Text 2 for every bit of coding I do. It's a no-bullshit editor with some very handy features such as file searching, bundles, multiple text selection, full line traversing and full screen mode. Not to mention it has syntax highlighting for all the languages (Even the Rails framework and jQuery library ) I use with the ability of adding more.

I also use eclipse. I use it for Java, and there is also a PHP version (which I haven't quite got working yet). eclipse also has syntax highlighting and it gives you suggestions as you type, so it can cut down on some typing. When you scroll over a suggestion it gives you a description of what it does, what it returns, what type of errors it can create, what you use it with, etc. Along with that, it also lists all of your variables on one side and your projects on the other. It also has a command line at the bottom (like most good IDEs). It also has a built in compiler.

I use Microsoft visual studio for C++ and when I will learn VB I will also use that. the Visual Studio IDEs have syntax highlighting. They have a built in compiler as well. It lists every file in your project to the side.

For any other language I will most likely use JEdit until I can find something better. JEdit is a basic IDE. It has no compiler, but it does have Syntax Highlighting, which helps a lot.

Honestly, I only like to work with VIM and GCC. I can't stand using massive IDEs.

Visual Studio for C#/C++, Dreamweaver/Notepad++ for the rare occasions I do any PHP stuff, and for a portable C++ IDE, Code::Blocks.

For C#, I'll use SharpDevelop, if SD isn't working, I'll use visual studio. For Java, I used to use Dr. Java, now use Eclipse. And for C++, I use Code::Blocks.

For the moment I only code in Java so i just stick with Notepad++. If i'm in Linux i use 'Geany', they both do everything I need with no hassle.

I checked out what you use though (Sublime Text 2) and I actually really like it, might start using it more.

Well Eclipse for Java, Visual Studio for all the .net stuff, notepad++ for the little bit of web development I do, I also have code blocks installed but rarely do I use native C++, I don't even use c++/CLI at all either though.


I also just checked out Sublime Text2, and I think I am going to replace notepad++ with this. The only thing I haven't figured out yet actually is how to change the is how to change the syntax highlighting.
