Primarily I’ve done basic (novice level) software development on a Windows machine, but I’ve always had MS Visual Studio to help me step through the process of debugging.

Now, however, it looks like I will be on Linux, so in order to get ready for the jump I want to make sure I have a tool/tools lined up to help me step through the code and debug.

Unfortunately when I’ve verbally asked folks how they go about debugging on Linux, I typically get the following answer, “Oh, I just put a bunch of print statements.” OMG! No way you say, but yes that is their answer.

Since it is on Linux, and will be working with C++ code on the CentOS 32-bit OS, I am hoping here is a preferred OpenSource solution. So, I guess I asking for the preferred OpenSource IDE for C++ code on CentOS Linux.

Thanks for any insight and suggestions.

    I would suggest using Eclipse

    Eclipse is a mature IDE with plenty of support available.

    There is also Code::Blocks if you want to try something different
