can we have visual studio the mobile version for nokia n900 ?
who knows ?

Re: cplusplus
 

You can write C++ in whatever you like really, though I doubt there's an actual 'Visual Studio' port to Linux let alone to ARM architecture.

You could always write in VS and transfer your build to the N900.

What about a compatible IDE that will run on ARM Linux?

Re: cplusplus
 

The closest dev environment I've found on Unix is Eclipse (Look for the C++ version). I wouldn't want to run it on the N900, but if you have a scratchbox area setup on a real machine, it would be a nice way to dev into it.

I believe MADDE also has a gui front end available, does it not?

You can use Visual Studio to make Qt apps and then try to compile them for Maemo. Might be easier to just use Qt-Creator though.

No optified version of Eclipse avaiable?

Re: cplusplus
 

I dont know about you guys but Eclipse would be a nightmare on the N900.

Re: cplusplus
 

No kidding. It's a nightmare on my netbook, let alone the N900. I prefer Netbeans myself.

Re: cplusplus
 

ok, Eclipse = bad

How about another graphical IDE avaiable for N900?

Re: cplusplus
 

What about Edicom (in Extras-Devel)?

I don't think you're going to find much that's going to run on the N900 that gives you what you're looking for. Unless you're willing to give up the nice things (like inteli-sense and function fill) and go back to 1996 level development tools, it's going to be slow on the N900. We're talking about a portable device here, not a laptop or desktop system.

If you use tools suited for this level of processor (like Vim) it will do well. If you want a full GUI, you're going to want to do development on a real PC that can support it processor wise, and cross-compile for the device. (Or, just do the compile/debug on the device... those tools exist and are pretty efficient.)

thanks alot ...
