i think you will find that the Borland compiler is Kylix and it is for 'Delphi/PASCAL'
development...

having said that... it is good for building your front end with (and entire
application too for that matter), and then you can link in your C++ libraries
into the app, and achieve the same goal... think of Kylix as VB (in PASCAL)
for linux

look into Kylix by Borland

Isn't there a C/C++ one?

Unfortunately, I don't like Pascal, so I haven't tried it, but I have been looking and Phoenix basic (IDE for basic) but haven't
found it much use (

The Kdevelope is a very nice c/c++ IDE.

to cut a long story short, yes, there are a number of them, Kylix is one of
the simplest to develop in... the rest require a little bit of work...

Borland takes care of all the 'nasty' work for you leaving you to the job
of coding your solution, rather than playing around with 'window' frameworks...
if you like the playing part, then go for it, i prefer to get a job done
as quickly as possible so that i can get on to the next job and make more
money that way...

borland have just come out with C++ Builder 6 which uses the same internal
framework (CLX) as kylix. although i am not sure if you can compile the
BCB6 code under LINUX at this stage, i think you will find that Borland will
go down that path soon...

hope this helps...

A handy visual remote Unix and Linux C/C++ IDE under windows just like VC++

It's a handy tool just like VC++ for developing C/C++ on remote unix/linux based servers. that is, if you prefer to work in windows ( I do, so.)

You install this babe in your normal windows system, initiate a session to your remote unix/linux servers( where your compliers and codes are), and will be able to remotely edit your codes on the server via ftp. To be able to compile and debug remotely the server need some package installed.

you got something fairly easy to use.I found it great for working from home or remotely like when travelling. I don't particularly like microsoft technology or its windows stuff, but i'm definitely not against productivity gain. This tool is great for large scale development as it has CVS support. That's a lot of pain I could spare.

have fun!

I got Magic C++ V2.5 a few days ago. It supports CVS and visual HTML format man page online help now. Most important the server component source code is open to offer support for various UNIX/Linux platform requests, I've compiled it successfully under HP-UX and IBM AIX and works well,

SwingWT is a 100% pure Java library aims to be a free implementation of Swing and AWT. Unlike Swing, it drives native peer widgets for your platform from SWT. It works with GCC/GCJ on Linux; for Windows you'll need the distro at thisiscool.com/gcc_mingw.htm which bundles:
a patched build of mingw32 GCC 3.4 to compile C, C++ and Java into Windows executables
binutils-2.14.90-20030612-1, w32api-2.4 and mingw-runtime-3.2 from MingW
a GCJ build of the Win32 swt.jar (libswt.a which uses swt-win32-3054.dll, shipped with Eclipse 3.0)
SwingWT 0.83, sample applications (console, SWT, Swing, AWT miscellaneous)
