Programming in C/C++ in Ubuntu

[surya_sampath]

Hi All,
I am a newbie in Linux and I used to do programming in C/C++ in Windows using Visual Studio but in Linux I find many ways in the internet to do that in Linux. I read something about creating a make file and then compiling using gcc and other options was to use an IDE. Can anyone help me choose and possibly direct me to some tutorials so that I can ger started. My goal is to choose a programming environment to run openCV. Thanks for your help.

Surya.

Hey,

I googled it using the words
- eclipse opencv linux

The first ocurrence is the documentation of OpenCV.

The Eclipse is a good IDE to develop. Try that.

Best Regards,
Leví

I LOVE Geany. It works pretty well and is pretty straight-forward.
I assume you've installed build-essential?

sudo apt-get install build-essential

Write a program in geany, name it with *.c for a c program or *.cpp for c++, then hit compile, build, and run. It even gives you a neat terminal to interact and read the exit code of your program.
