That makes me think that the development environment can really completely
change the way you perceive a language or framework. There must be something to
do for C lovers too, be it in Eclipse or not.
it will probably work similarly if you use eclipse cdt.
but i prefer to have a real buildsystem with C++
and then eclipse doesnt know about your c files.
Knowing what a huge productivity boost Eclipse gives for Java, I was a bit
underwhelmed by CDT - but perhaps I just somehow hadn't configured it
completely.
(Java 'haters' would argue that Java is just such a bad/verbose language that
you need the IDE, and IDE's are useless for proper languages. There's *some*
grain of truth there, but on the whole I don't buy it :) )
