Re:Eclipse (Score 1)

I spent yesterday looking at eclipse CDT again. Basically the only feature I am interested in is 'content assist' - emacs rules it in every other way (for me). Unfortunately, that doesn't really work. I used the RPM available for Fedora 5 and it basically fails to index. Repeated problems failing to update project paths. After repeated failures trying to get CA to work, I tried to replicate the screen shot they show with 'mystruct' - that didn't work the first few times I tried it. Either something is badly wrong with the FC5 RPM or it isn't quite there yet. I'll check it out again in another year, but at the moment it still sucks for C/C++ Even if the 'content assist' feature worked, it still needs a good indent engine and to make better use of screen space. I wasn't able to see much code even when maximized - looked to be due to extra spacing between lines of code.

If only the CEDET package for emacs actually worked...
