I'm not a professional programmer. I have tried both Eclipse and Qt Creator,
I have to admint that for a newcomer is much more easy
Qt Creator. Eclipse was originally designed to use for Java develop, while
Qt Creator is for Qt and C++. With Eclipse I was not able to watch Qt types
while debugging, even for a "simple" QString. They are showed out of the box
with Qt Creator. I have even been able to setup a cross compiled version of
Qt Embedded out of the box, just configuring the Qt version to use. The
autocompletion feature is a lot more fast with Qt Embedded and works
perfectly with Qt Classes. The documentation is very well integrated and the
access is again faster than with Eclipse. You have also a kind of templates
for main project/classes etc creation. There is alsa examples and tutorials.
There is also a feature request from Qt Creator if you have some good idea
to contribute. By the way it is open source, so if you want you can add any
good feature it could lack.
Sincerely, many thanks to Qt.
