C/C++ Application Learning Trail

Developing C and C++ Applications

When you install the NetBeans IDE with C/C++ support, it includes project types for C and C++ and appropriate templates. You can create C/C++ applications with dynamic and static libraries, and you can also create C/C++ projects from existing code. The editor indents, completes, and syntax-highlights C and C++ code and is well integrated with the GNU gdb debugger.

In NetBeans IDE 6.1, C/C++ support includes options for formatting styles and semantic highlighting in your source files, a Usages window to show you everywhere an element is used in your project's source code, and new Threads, Disassembler, and Registers windows in the debugger.
