Which C++ IDE to choose for weak PCs?

Question

C++ / C#

In general, you need an undemanding C ++ IDE. In the location of computers with 512 MB of RAM and Windows XP. Now I have Visual C++ Express 2008, but it doesn't suit me because of the lack of error highlighting.

Answer 1

Maybe Code::Blocks?

Answer 2

try QtCreator. I use it on rather weak computers. The best IDE for crosses.
But if it doesn't work, then it's better to use Geany or Code::Blocks, but they are worse.

Answer 3

notebook

Answer 4

In the location of computers with 512 MB of RAM and Windows XP.

Funny. Appreciated.
Linux + Geany.

Answer 5

codelite

Answer 6

Install the Visual Assist X add-on on VisualStudio. Errors and a bunch of other goodies will be highlighted. But developing something on 512 megabytes is pain and suffering. All modern development environments will gobble up all the memory, and in old ones it will be inconvenient to work in any case. If these are university computers in a laboratory class, then install some ancient compiler. And if it's home ... suffer and save up for a new computer.

Answer 7

Or maybe take the cheapest virtual machine with two gigs of frame and code on it via rdp?). I worked in one office, in short, I lacked the capacity of a working machine (although the machine was in order there, it was still rather weak, the brakes were), as a result, I worked via rdp on my home computer.
It's just that with a frame of 512, coding something in the IDE is unrealistic, it's terrible. Well, unless you plug in an ssd and drop swap with projects on it

Answer 8

notepad++
