Does Code::Blocks comes with GUI design tools or plugins ?

I think raha is asking for RADs, not RES editors.

Hi,
Yes you are right, I made a confusion there.
I use borland on Windows but I wanted something powerful on Linux with GUI design tools, (Similare to Kylix but Kylix is stoped).
I then found C::B and I liked the interface but there was no GUI tools.
Last night I found Eclipse (I think it has C++ and GUI design too). but I defenetly prefer to use simpler IDE like C::B but it lack GUI :(
I think if somebody push the development of GUI plugins faster then many people will use it.
Thanks

I am not sure to fully understand you, but C::B has wxSmith :) as Takeshi Miya mentioned above. It is WIP, but it works relatively well (at least in Windows).

Eclipse has a GUI design tool, but AFAIK it is for Java and not C++.
Anyway, C::B does not lack GUI.

Byo and other devs are working with wxSmith RAD plugin. They work really good and fast, so you should be a bit patient :).
Best wishes,

If you are doing more than hobby developement you might want to look at DialogBlocks or wxDesigner which are both as cross platform as wxWidgets and more so than Code::Blocks at the moment. They are both only GUI design tools not complete IDEs. I am sure wxSmith will reach there level but currently it is not there. There are some other open source wxWidgets dialog tools but none I tried reached the level of DialogBlocks or wxDesigner. Both of those offer free trial versions so there is no harm in giving them a shot.

Hello,
You might want to give a look at the topic wxSmith and it's amazing improvement! :).
Best wishes,
Michael
