I have a project for Linux that i’ve been developing for some time. Basically it’s a bunch of C and H files together with a directory structure and a Makefile.

Every time I need to debug something it’s so painful, I need to manually search for var. definitions, structs, etc.

Is there any good IDE out there for Linux that will allow me to import those files into a “project” and that will provide code completion or at least an easy way to get my bearings in the source code?

thanks!

    Eclipse with the CDT

    CDT is pretty much Makefile based, just create an empty ‘make’ project then drop your files into it and refresh in eclipse then add your make targets.

    Eclipse should pick stuff up from make output.
