First impressions of C++ IDEs I tried today

Qt Creator: OK. I’ve got to admit that I’m skewed, but it’s the greatest, yet still evolving.

Code::Blocks: A great alternative to Qt Creator. If I were not using Qt, I’m certain I’d use this cool thing with wxWidgets.

CodeLite: Eh…… Looks good. And that’s all. Though started as a demo for code completion library, its completion is below my expectation - it behaves a bit awkward to me, and reaction is slow. Refactoring? Forget it. Code::Blocks 13.12 has it all.

Eclipse CDT: Slow and heavy(and that’s the reason I don’t like Java). Too complicated. There were so many complaints among C++ developers for so many different reasons, and I totally agree with each of the claims.
