Hey Jeff, thanks for the reply, what I realy don't like in IDEs is tying
building and editing at same tool. I'm a simple guy so I like to keep things
simple. I never heard of anybody using IDE's for building C code in linux.

I'm considering back to vim since emacs indenting is making me crazy

Could you explain which indenting aspect is annoying you?

Regards

Off list.



I use gvim, make, all the old style tools for kernel development and have
been doing so for about 15 years now, but I am an old fart. Your boss
needs
to understand that a lot of these IDEs, though useful for user space
development, don?t help much in kernel space. When the kernel goes bad,
the
IDE goes with it.



If he is uneducatable on this, you might want to check out this package
called kdevelop. You can keep it running in one desktop to make him happy
and then do the real work using the tried and true command line tools in
another desktop.



Good luck,



Jeff Haran

My boss came to my desk today raiging that I should use more productive
tools for developing. Well I don't want to begin an editor war but, yes, I
use emacs. I used to use vim before but the integration of emacs and gdb
has
caught my attention.

To be clear, as "more productive tools" he understands graphical eye candy
tools. My argument to use an "simple editor plus makefiles" was, it just
works and thats it. So before to downloading eclipse just to make my
boss's
eyes happy I've decided to make a little research.

What you guys are using today to develope kenrel code?
