hi,
I have eclipse with java on Fedora-12.
Over the years, I've done spots of plain jane
C in simple embedded processors, and some utilities
on a desktop, all using basic editors and once using
text graphics with turbo-C.
I'm not interested in asking about emacs, vi(m), gedit etc
for this email.
It's been awhile since I have inquired about using an IDE
for C. And I'm admittedly a bit lazy with this one task:
adding C rpm packages to eclipse.
SO:
When using eclipse with java, it gives lots and lots of help
( similar to VS ) in the form of little windows and tooltips,
inserting functions, refactoring, automatic fixups...
If using eclipse to do C development, is there advantage
other than what basic editors offer ( such as coloring syntax ) ??
i.e. do C library functions showup with prototypes onscreen etc ?
I hope what I'm inquiiring about is clear...
thanks,
Walt......
