What programming environment do you use?

If other, specify.

I was wondering about your experiences with that environment.

Re: What programming environment do you use?

Depends on what I'm working on:

Visual C++ for, uh, C++ projects usually OpenGL type stuff.

Borland JBuilder for Java although they've been bought out and JBuilder has turned into Eclipse which I'm not too comfortable with.

Emacs for Perl when I'm working in a Linux environment. A computer science teacher forced us to use Emacs one semester and it's stuck now. If I'm making small changes to C or C++ code that's already on Linux, then I'll go ahead and use Emacs for that too.

Only time I work with C is for FRC. I tend to poke around with our team's program using MPLAB, but the students use EasyC because they aren't very good with coding yet. I'll try some stuff out using MPLAB and then try and get them to replicate the effort with EasyC.

Re: What programming environment do you use?

For FRC, I use MPLab. For other team-related software projects, I often write Tcl programs. I didn't put "Other", because I don't think that Notepad counts as a programming environment. :-)

Re: What programming environment do you use?

I am generally know programming concepts (from JavaScript, and other past experiences), but this was the first time I had to use C. Although I would've loved to learn C and use either MPLab or Eclipse, I didn't have the time to learn it in 6 weeks. So I ended up using easyC.

Not that there's anything wrong with easyC. EasyC is a great program for people to become familiar with programming in general. However, I do with I knew enough C to use an actual program (programming isn't supposed to be easy).

Re: What programming environment do you use?

For robotics I use MPLab.

For .net and web programming I use Visual Studio 2008, and Notepad++when I don't want to wait for VS to load.

Re: What programming environment do you use?

For FRC MPlab, with EasyC for testing.

For non-FRC on the Mac I use Xcode for C++ and Taco HTML and Smultron for CSS.

On Windtel comp I use Visual studio for everything -HTML. Crimson Editor is the best for HTML and CSS.

In my first post, I actually considered saying that I consider notepad an environment.

Re: What programming environment do you use?

For Robo, I'm using MPLab with WPILib. For fun, Visual Studio 2005 and 2008 (mostly Visual Basic.NET and Visaul C++).

Re: What programming environment do you use?

When programming our robot I use MPLab and when programming our team's website(http://www.whitebearlakerobotics.com) I use Notpad or Notebook which ever is available on the computer I am using.

Re: What programming environment do you use?

I count notepad as a programming environment. Not a very good one, but hey, you didn't specify it had to be =p


I personally use Vim, to compile I use Make. (I know it wasn't mentioned, but we use Git for versioning)

Re: What programming environment do you use?

Im kinda surprised nobody's mentioned it yet. I quickly got sick of the way MPLab displayed code, and after failing to get Eclpise (which I use for Java) to work, I saw a post by a member of team 610 with a link to CodeBlocks.
http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=62212
All you have to do is copy and paste your mcc18 folder into the folder in the CodeBlocks directory and your good to go. My favorite environment by far.

Re: What programming environment do you use?

Specifically, I went over the default code in MPlab, wrote our program in EasyC, and then wrote the program in MPlab. I pretty much had to teach myself, but the white papers in CD were very helpful in getting me started.

I like MPlab generally speaking though.

I would like to mention these three, one on pid loops, the other two on applied programming.
